this quest was so good on so many levels it kept me wanting for more. It's just so unfortunate that some EN dialogues weren't voiced due to certain reasons, but the ZZZ team still delivered regardless. What an awesome game man
Having played the story for this patch, I did not notice that the bullet Miyabi parried was what infected her sword. Glad I decided to re-watch 1.4 through your commentary.
1:57:00 “Miyabi. I know that you are an excellent swordmaster. Thus I can entrust you with *my* secret technique.” “A secret technique of the Zhu family, ma’am?” “No. My personal technique for how to get my hothead of a daughter in line.” “I am listening.”
Did people notice that when bringer transforms, the first time the giant hand apears and shines gold, theres like 4 shadow hands on the background. 3:16:49
1:23:55 There was a subtle reveal about future plans… in the promo material regarding our free Harumasa, there is a statement saying that he will be available for free for a limited time: from the start of Version 1.4 until some time in Version 1.6 (I can’t remember if it was the end of 1.6 or not). So I think that’s a solid confirmation that there will be at least two more versions before 2.0 (my guess would be only two, but who knows?)… this seems in line with Hoyo’s normal schedules if you consider this the conclusion of ZZZ’s first “Archon Quest”. I’m hoping they’d use 1.5 and 1.6 to introduce whatever character rerun system they’re going to implement… and maybe we can get at least a couple of new A-Rank characters set up through a bit of filler story…? Honestly, if they did an Outer Ring filler that brings Pulchra into the Sons of Calydon as a new A-Rank I’d be extremely happy. 😮
Highly unlikely. Sons of Calydon already have the most characters in one faction as is with 5. If they ever add Pulchra they'd probably make a separate faction for her since there're a lot of biker gangs in the outer ring anyway
@ I can see your point, and obviously Hoyo can do whatever they want… I’m just speaking from my own perspective. But I think one thing that could pose a problem for ZZZ if they follow this path is do some sort of infinite faction spawn. Unlike Genshin or Star Rail that have these new countries or worlds they can move to in order to introduce a whole new set of characters, ZZZ is a local story… they pretty much said in that final statement in the credits: this story remains focused on New Eridu. The plot is still going to follow the current investigations, and therefore the current cast is likely to remain much more involved in stories to come… thus I think the connections ZZZ players have to these characters is different than in the other Hoyo games. I don’t think anyone is going to be satisfied now if the only time we see Miyabi or Lighter any more is in some ZZZ equivalent of the Windblume Festival or Lantern Rite. So while new factions can be introduced into the plot, the stories of the existing factions must also continue… and I don’t think you have to limit membership in those factions, except where it wouldn’t make sense to the plot. For example, I think Section 6 is a very tight and insular group and as such I think making new members of that group would feel a bit like a betrayal… but we already know HAND has a bunch of sections, so you could create a new team in that regard. However, PubSec is literally just “the police”; you could add all sorts of cool officers to PubSec without any issue. Likewise, I think the Sons of Calydon are our Outer Ring protagonists now… so I don’t think you need any sort of extra complication by adding multiple biker gang factions. If the plot takes us back to the Outer Ring, I want to go hang with Caesar and Burnice and Lighter and Lucy and Piper… but plot wise, they pretty much explicitly state that they’re trying to recruit new members all the time. And that suggestion in the Pulchra scene isn’t subtle in the least… But like I said, Hoyo has their own plans and can do anything they want… and as long as it’s good, I’m here for it. 👍
What if who Bringer is refering to in the end part wasn't the siblings, but actually Carole Arna. The siblings are certainly not in the shadows anymore and Carole is protecting them from "the shadows" searching for the real villain?
the venus commision is a new kami north commision and change to the next day after completing and talking to venus in port elbis to get more lore about spiral fluteist kami north is after
Ooh, I've been looking forward to the next chapter in that story. (Last mission, right after Kami North left and we went to follow him... I called Anton in, and pretty much soloed it with him. Bros got to stand together.)
I wonder why there are like digital distortion effects during both Bringer's transformation for like a second and also when the Siblings tank the explosion their Optical implants also have a glitch effect Also 4:07:00 i wonder if the student whose face we can't is still alive & might actually be White Noise and is trying to infiltrate The Order by working with them
1:06:57 I think they just explained it again this time coz it's the first time for players to explore a hollow with Mc, without Fairy and a bangboo. Maybe to have a picture of how it would be done manualy, kind of.😅
1:58:00 I decided to re-check her media and there was nothing you described here, she only showed her phone during her EP and it only showed the texting between her parents, I think you're conjuring up things or mistook a fan-art for an official canon.
There are unused dialogues where Miyabi said the proxies could be her foster child if they wanted to touch the sword, Belle and Wise proceed to call her "Mommy/Mother". This gag even went to the zhu yuan apology scene where it would've been more fanservice-y Glad it got cut off
Im not sure if im on board with the theory of professor arkhe being this "creator". I mean he's a void hunter, the antithesis of the exaltist order. Why would they worship their enemy?
@@bencegodina3923 I think it would be interesting to have a void hunter who is supposed to be a hero be a villain. Also he already looks like he is an ether enhanced individual (which order wants) and has been gone inside hollow zero for a long time. I don't necessarily think he IS the creator but I think it would be interesting if he also followed the creator
Doesn't creator just mean god? I don't think it's a person, also if Miyabi failed and Lerna had absorbed her that would have made the situation a lot worse, so it doesn't have to be that the TOPs lady wanted to blow up the Shiyu pillar for shits and giggles... To me TOPs is not any more corrupt than any organization that gets big enough.
@@xrosslegends1279 a God is still a being though whether it be a "person" or not. Idk if you have played Hi3 but there is a "false god" that a person ascends too at some point in the story. Albeit not a real God a person can ascend to that rank. As for the pillar thing it wouldn't be for shits and giggles. It would be because the Shiyu pillar literally stands for the exact opposite goal of what the Order wants. Hollow takeover.
@AzrialVanity I mean, if you meant that the Professor reached Aeon hood or something then I could start buying your argument, but it's the order older than the foundation of the Void Hunters and Helios Academy? I imagine they already had their god (creator) at that point, so Arche wouldn't have much to do with them at that point... I guess I just don't wanna believe that the guy made of flames is gonna be the main villain. With the pillar stuff, I guess it makes sense for the order to want to get rid of the pillars, but just getting rid of the pillars would just turn everyone into mindless ethereals, and they're developing a serum to make people conscious after transformation, so why wouldn't they just finish their research before doing that... Altho I guess the cost of the serum is probably many lives, like the philosopher's stone. XD
Am I the only one who noticed Sarah seeming to have a VA change? I really wasn't into the performance of the new one anytime she appeared; it really took me out of things since I loved the old one so much. If this is the new one moving forward, then I'll be pretty disappointed since they just don't nail the vibe that made her so good before.
I'm just putting my head-cannon out there and it might sound crazy. I think the title of "Void Hunter" is just a title sound to quell public unrest. The so-called "Void Hunter"s were just a a bunch of criminals, murderers, greedy CEOs, mad scientists, outlaws,.... that just so happened to have made leap and bounds in innovation and enhancement that brought value to the world of ZZZ, but since their name and reputation brought anxiety and disrest to the citizen, the leader(s) of New Eridu made the title of "Void Hunter" to officiate their contributions, quelling civil unrest, and ultimately and potential tricking future generations into believe that "Void Hunters" were good people, that New Eridu is a safe place, while the "Creator" and those in TOPS are "evil" and are trying to harm the last remanent of civilizations.
I just had a thought - Bringer might've been trying to get the Janus Quarter under control to weed out the Carole's students, hence why he thought his mission was complete after assuming he took them out

you can replay the mission
Having played the story for this patch, I did not notice that the bullet Miyabi parried was what infected her sword. Glad I decided to re-watch 1.4 through your commentary.
probably the BEST hoyo story I've ever seen so far. I KNOW im always glazing this game in every comment section BUT I CANT HELP IT
ZZZ peak just keeps giving
the glazing is justified
1:57:00 “Miyabi. I know that you are an excellent swordmaster. Thus I can entrust you with *my* secret technique.”
“A secret technique of the Zhu family, ma’am?”
“No. My personal technique for how to get my hothead of a daughter in line.”

I love how 1.4 wrapped everything up in Nice bow.

Ooo I never noticed!
😧

i really thought the mc being playable was impossible but they might be building up to it

Also 4:07:00 i wonder if the student whose face we can't is still alive & might actually be White Noise and is trying to infiltrate The Order by working with them
2:13:11 the thing that fell off from Pearlman has "Prophet" written on it
58:34 That would be the two remains of the bullet Miyabi split in half. 😎
Enjoyed your reaction!! And the lore talk! It'd be great to summarize the lore up to 1.4 in a video?
@@yuumin4652 working on a video already! :)
Should be out a little after the holidays

Nicole's back up that never came and Jane's informant, that could be Soldier 11
Nice

PEAK STORY
There are unused dialogues where Miyabi said the proxies could be her foster child if they wanted to touch the sword, Belle and Wise proceed to call her "Mommy/Mother". This gag even went to the zhu yuan apology scene where it would've been more fanservice-y
Glad it got cut off
Damn, Charlie went all the way to the Video Store to look you the Proxies and Vanity is trash talking her, feels bad man... XD
Im not sure if im on board with the theory of professor arkhe being this "creator". I mean he's a void hunter, the antithesis of the exaltist order. Why would they worship their enemy?

I don't necessarily think he IS the creator but I think it would be interesting if he also followed the creator
unironically the best gacha game imo.its just peak😔
Will TV Mode Return in Story in Future Updates?
Bringer? Why not Wider?
With that arm, his boss form was even W I D E R.
When will the lore recap be out
@SketchNinja-oi9pp i wanna get through some more of the update content first and then I'll get one out! Hopefully by next weekend 😌
@@AzrialVanity I hope to your prediction in what could happen next
for some time i forgot zzz has great song theme
opening
Will Solider 11 Appear in Story?
@@harris3boyz hopefully soon!

Will OC Characters from Fanfiction appear in Future Updates?

Sir. Those are just the Flamechasers. With Heroes like those who needs Villains?
Well, i have to say it🥲, BEST GACCHA STORY EVER, ABSOLUTE CINEMA 🤚🗿✋
I just had a thought - Bringer might've been trying to get the Janus Quarter under control to weed out the Carole's students, hence why he thought his mission was complete after assuming he took them out
The post credit scene gave me goosebumps 3 times already, so freaking cool
