What a good video. Yeah, I never assumed that every area had to look dark and dreary in order to have a dark story to it. This theory that you came up with definitely opened my eyes to a lot more than I was thinking about. Once again, great video!
Great vid man 🎉 Also, i think Renascita's cheerfulness is just a facade, and there's actually some mysteries hidden within its shadows Cuz come on now, its Kuro, "something ain't right" is always the case
The art direction sure is a drastic shift in tone but it doesn't mean it wouldn't fit within WuWa's world. However, they need to nail the writing for 2.0 and make it believable. As well as balance the modern and classical aspects when designing everything. In Jinzhou, modern and traditional aspects blends so well together. From the architecture to the character designs. In Rinascita, it felt like a city frozen in time with very little modern touches. Something akin to Final Fantasy. I honestly thought that they're gonna go with Gothic Victorian vibe due to its post-apocalyptic genre. With that said, considering Rinascita (or Ragunna) is just one city, then other cities might as well be inspired by other european architecture. With that said, it's too early to judge. I am optimistic though. Even in PGR, there are factions like Kowloong and Akdilek, that has traditional elements mixed with modern elements. There's also World Government Association of Art which handles art and culture even funding plays and operas as well as other creative endeavors. They made them fit within PGR's world due to the writing and I expect the same for Rinascita. Great video btw!
@@Oban2006 Wdym is not possible... Rover can build blackshore ... It is possible to make a city like that (maybe) bcs their city don't get destroyed like jinzou
the problem in WuWa are not the world design but the story. before released WuWa already build up image as dark, mature, gritty impression game but at released its changed thus make many dissappointed. because 1.1-1.4 its become shonen-like and too much rover glazing, the lively trailer of Raguna give them expectation its will be turn out the same thing, another shonen like and rover glazing which many players already getting tired off in 2.0 as long as KURO focus more on lores, characters interactions, and less rover glazing most players will happy about it because the change can be seen. but if it the same with rover glazing, then expect same complaints happen in next patch.
I agree on the glazing I have made videos on it myself, but I'm more discussing art direction in this video rather than story factors, As for now we can only go off what we have seen.
Story is just subjective/personal opinion tbh, you'll see someone (minority/majority) who like/hate this direction of story. What Kuro must do is to improve the Storytelling, like what they do in 1.1 to 1.4. The Storytelling already good but some people misinterpreted Character line and action.
@@PIxelTreeTV what I mean is, the people who complaint about rinascita trailer like that, mainly because how the story so far. like, imagine if KURO actually deliver the story in 1.0-1.4 dark, mature, gritty impressions successfully. the reveal of current rinascita will get different impression. many will actually react "not going to fall for such lively atmospheres, Raguna must be hidding something". but with current story directions, ppl cant confidently say that
@@ryogu_sure what? KURO storytelling already good, its the story that lacking, especially on lores part that I believe thanks to story rework. what we have today pretty much surface level/introduction lores, which didnt give enough informations for players discusing thing. that why jinzhou didnt really hook players there lot of stuff in jinzhou that can be made as quest for expanding lores. for example, giant banyan tree, what the lore behind it? how old the tree? why there many human size cages in there? what the story behind feilian beringal? etc. but what we got simply "current problem" quest removing spores(even if it good quest)
@@ywzgbf6873 Yes that what I say, Kuro Storytelling already good. Story/Lore about something can be added, but if you say "When?" or ""How?", I'll let them cook themself because we only explore 1 city of Huanglong. And then in BS, there is some member that we don't meet yet, so there will be more story from BS.
![[PART 2] WHAT YOUR MAIN SAYS ABOUT YOU (Wuthering Waves)](/img/1.gif)
The Dark Ages going to the Renaissance is the closest example we had for what Rinascita represented in the game and thank god someone brought this up
When i saw all the TDs just casually roaming around i knew something odd.
Yea I'm going to make a video on that soon and the potential dark under tones regarding the relationship between td's and humans in Rinascita.
What a good video. Yeah, I never assumed that every area had to look dark and dreary in order to have a dark story to it. This theory that you came up with definitely opened my eyes to a lot more than I was thinking about. Once again, great video!
Thank you so much for the kind words I'm really happy you enjoyed it.

Great video btw!
Love the lore content. Keep em coming❤
This is a banger video, holy 👀
Now my only wish is you and other lore deep divers should have a podcast. I think that would be great content 🙂
If I'm correct riniscita recover from the lament
It's not possible at this time, I'm theory it's a facade unless they got some crazy tech to do it?
@@Oban2006 Wdym is not possible... Rover can build blackshore ...
It is possible to make a city like that (maybe) bcs their city don't get destroyed like jinzou
So true something fishy is hiding
@@tstar9158 I can't wait to find out.
peak content, great vid and interesting points and reference to history that do seem to fit into what might have happen and what we could expect.
@@JustsomeguyXII 🙏 appreciate it bro.
wow lore. nice pixel awesome video
It could be Alexandria from final fantasy 9 any moment
Ashikai for wuwa hahaha good work brother
I hope the city is huge an crowd is packing unlike Jinzhou
It probably won't be too much purely for performance sake or there will be lot of repeat npcs.
This game should be dark if this is targeted for us
The reason is because its better than ganshin impact
Thiers Lament everywhere; case and point Riniscita having tacet discords being everywhere 😮.
There were five global laments and hundreds of thousands of local ones, hence why some regions will be more affected more recently than others.
😢😢😢
I know it's not your language, but it's pronounced more like "Rin-ash-eat-ah". Stress on the "ash" part.
Interesting video.
Appreciate it, I'll try work on it 😂
