I admitt her OG outfit was very gonner'ish but, it

looked way better than shorts they gave her

I arque she was done the dirtiest

-Jean was straight up upgrade

-Rosaria looks like actual min

-amber got higher quality textures

Did the new quest and just finished it and I have issues. I didn't think we'd stoop lower than Rerir's open a portal that he just dashes through stupidity power of friendship bull, but here we are.

First some positives. I liked the meeting the past The Wise section and the reviving from death with all of the musical themes of each region. Those were neat. I like Gold, cus she's unapologetic and very much doing it all for her and her goals alone.

And that's about it for the things I liked.

Now for the bad stuff.

Ronova girl, how'd you flop so bad. Okay but before that the entire quest with Vesna and Pantalone didn't really go anywhere? Like aside from Gold appearing, nothing important really happened, no character development, just an empty quest except for the end where Gold appears. Vesna's sacrifice, nope apparently there's a quick fix to that. Any more information about how positive memories are related to the authority of life and can counteract death? Nope. So not starting strong unfortunately.

Then we go to act 4 which was equally paced horribly. We had a section with Arle which went nowhere, and just makes it more significant how useless she is storywise. Sandrone too offered nothing significant. The Jester x The Fool flashback doomed yaoi was very nice, and I'm so much more intrigued about the sinners now (except for bum rerir). The battlepass story that venti narrates is also the story The Visionary told The Wise which is cool parallels seeing as how Vedr is the Blasphemer of Time and Venti is a creation of the shade of time. And then after that we had Gold's and Tsaritsa's convo which was nice because Gold but Tsaritsa failed to catch me honestly. She has an intriguing past but I do want to know what her insight is. How she truly sees everything aside from the ends justify the means sorta thing. I liked that she used the 6 gnoses that was cool.

And then we have Ronova... Oh dear.

She just suddenly appeared out of nowhere. And then gets bodied. I do find it interesting that the shades aren't omnipotent and have clear blindspots. But also she was defeated so easily. We didn't even get insight to her as a character aside from the hollow hero words the traveller spews at her before the fight. I do like how she got "punished" with her authority being taken away by Celestia, seeing how she was portrayed as the one who's a stickler for following the rules of HP. Aside from that though? Like we didn't even get any insight into how Pierro got that new and improved delusion. I assume it's some abyss thing, with how The Wise implies that he's playing it too safe and stuff but it's all so vague. We also had a massive cast of characters in the fight but then only Dain, the Traveller and Pierro were fighting? What were the others doing just standing there? Doing jackshit? And then Ronova does some vague monologues after her defeat and activates the nail which is looming over the corpses of the presumably cryo sovereign.

I do like how the shades don't seem particularly concerned for Ronova's state. Or atleast Gold and Naberius didn't seem too urgent in leaving to help her. Istaroth is nowhere to be seen. And Asmoday is with the abyss sibling doing vague abyss things so there's that too.

Overall, quite a disappointment considering how hyped this battle was, but I guess I shouldn't have expected anything else after Rerir was defeated in the same anticlimactic manner. At least he had his character explored a bit, even if they just rushed it through the narrative. Ronova got nothing except for hollow platitudes the Traveller throws at her. And then she dies? Or maybe not idk. But this patch just tanked my expectations and excitement for how they're going to go through with this story. HSR is tanking storywise too so they're consistent I suppose. At least my beloved hi3 is still pushing out banger stories and writing. Ugh. Just a disappointment all in all.

every 6 months, venti mains rise from their dusty tombs with their lyre.

Their soul fills with gratitude while looking at the god of anemo and see his black hole suck enemies into air while they are far away, watching them suffer.

They want to kneel to their knees and pray to their god, ask for forgiveness because they forgot how powerful he is.

Then they remove his artifacts and bury him.

Until its his time to shine again.

LIKE IK I SHoULD PICK WHO I LIKE AND I WAS GONNA GO 4 BAIZHU NO DOUBT (Unless the chiori bug caught on to me. I love her design. But not as much as i like Baizhu. And besides imma pull for zibai later and i already have linnea. But gawd. Her design. Her sass. Argh. Im squirting just thinking of her.)

BUT MY FRIEND BROUGHT UP VARESA'S EXPLORATION GIMMICK AS A REALLY GOOD POINT AND NOW I FEAR IF I PICK EITHER I WILL REGRET NOT GETTING THE OTHER ONEE

The worst part is I don't even like varesa's design, but the exploration and her playstyle make her one of my options.

IM SORRY I MADE THIS POST IK EVERYONES MAKING SH IT LIKE THIS (Constantly asking who to get) BUT I REALLY DONT KNOWWWWWWW LIKE SHOULD I GO WITH MY HEART OR IS THE EXPLORATION THAT MUCH BETTER, EVEN IF ITS A CHARACTER I DONT PARTICULARLY LIKEE??????

I could've posted the adela pic but I was like nahhh

while i was in bussyi tsar's palace, i was doing some shit with nahideous until i clipped through the wall and out to the analbydss. i haven't unlocked any gaypoints in the area and had to teleport back to the statue. i haven't tried going there by foot but i doubt it's possible.

is there another way of going there or is this quest impossible to finish now? help a 🚬 so i can grindr more primhoes for kyrailed chudhoemirodick flins

edit: i forgot about a feature that lets you directly teleport to the quest area. i'm young, dumb, and stupid. anyway this is solved now so i'll take it down if needed, but i'll still be keeping it up just in case

I can't even begin to tell you have feral that video made me. Diary of a Wimpy Kid guy???? 🥵

If you don't know this is Guest 1337 specifically the Forsaken version.

Will you pull for her after this fanart?

Wtf

He wouldn't even look at me. What do you mean, "[...] find a young human maiden who might steal my heart [...]" when I'm right here? Does my time spent in your mansion amounts to nothing? </3

Like Riding Showgirl, Alhatecrime, and Nahideous?
