7:04 the reason behind mavuika having full on flames, and the traveller having more controlled ones is that it’s essentially a different power. The traveller draws power here from something called the nightsoul blessing, whereas mavuika, being the pyro archon, draws power from the gnosis. In-game, mavuika hair will actually catch fire during use of her abilities and burst, but other characters from Natlan will glow similarly to the travellers glow here, just with a different hue that represents their element and vision. Could be a few gaps in my knowledge but that’s the gist of it.
@@anonfx6919 AFAIK VAs and HOYO are in the middle of changing studios. Previous studio refused budge on their ai policies. Hoyo decided to just change studios so not to wait all this time.
@@Kedahh thats the entire point tho... they don't often so when they do it makes it so much more impactful! at least for me personally, so i was quite sad seeing they wasn't voiced T-T hopefully when they switch agencies eventually they'll repost the scene with their voice.
5:18 That's a random sword in game that the traveller is canonically using right now, it has no lore value in the current storyline. 9:20 The form that Gosoythoth took is that of the Pyro Dragon Sovereign, whose power was taken by Heavenly Principles to give to the Pyro Archon, I guess the 2 swords represent how they use the power.
Technically it is the current generic sword traveler is using.. I remember traveler always using the dull blade... then the silver sword.. now prototype rancour
@@doc1911 the pyro sovereign is dead. He was slain by the heavenly principles for rebelling too much. also @stargazer8g2 Dvalin is a dragon, but he's not the anemo sovereign.
The teal/turquoise in the fire effects is a recurring motif in the Natlan region. I imagine it comes from the Aztec symbolism of the turquoise mineral representing fire, but in the game it probably thematically represents a mystical soul-like energy because of the lore of the Night Kingdom (the underworld of Natlan)
The video skipped the gameplay parts where... well there's more of a fight going on xD. But the video is so well put together it looks like a single scene
The final battle scene and also the speech before it were on a whole another level from previous Genshin main story lines. So much energy, so much emotion and so much hype, it's incredible how far they've come since Tone-Deaf Bard's angy dragon.
7:05 so the glow around Lumine at this point is part of an in-game combat mechanic all Natlan characters have had called "Nightsoul's Blessing State" (the color of the glow effect is different for each character) lore discussion aside, im unsure if the effect is 2d in the cutscene or not, because i know it has appeared frequently in 3d in other cutscenes and in-game as an actively rendered effect on the character model when using specific abilities. edit: yeah i should have just kept watching the video huh
I'm a mod maker so I have some insight on the technical side of the gameplay aspect of the game and its shaders. The glow you keep mentioning about the characters it's an extruded mesh that's pushed to the back in the depth buffer. Aka is drawn first and character on top as if in different layers. So yeah is a 3d effect that imitates a 2d outline. It also has a nice parallax effect on it. As for the bike, it's "torso" is solid in its weights. So whatever they did in that animation was for the animation only. In game only the wheels, handlebar and propulsors have animated weights. The rest is one solid piece. Mavuika hair effect is custom made for this animation as well, however in the game there's a similar method in which they use 3 meshes with different shaders each to make that super saiyan effect. The top of the hair/head is closer to the normal mesh but blonde and with an animated uv, the middle has more visual distortions and the bottom is just fire xD
I like those particular impact frames. They don't lose the silhouette of characters, so I can understand more clearly that not just "something is happening", but "something is happening around the characters or from weapon of the characters". Effects are good, I like them. I don't really like the greenish flame effect, but that's just personal opinion, I just don't like the look. The sphere slicing effects were really good. And I think the aniticipation or grandness/importance on that big flame in the city was not really there. I was feeling that it was a small flame, then it temporarily just stop flaming and then it's was again a small flame.
9:17 About that sword, Middle Of That Sword There's a Torch that Other Characters Can't Ignite that flame except Mavuika, In Lobby Character, Which is So cool
Ever since Hi3rd flamescion CG, I believe Hoyo have nailed and master mix 2-3D animation. They put so much effort into these animation and become SUPER memorable. 6:48 I still don't know why that isn't voiced, since Lord of the Night literally talked like 5 mins ago. Like I understand if it is Lumine or Aether whose VA are on strike. 13:44 this is my favorite shot, they put on the black bar, just so they can show off the bike lol.
3:04 for me it's looks like they used 2d plane that always looks at camera for outer part with noise texture + color ramp + rgb; and for main part of a hair emisson with some drivers with geometry nodes for animated part, if it's not cloth or other physic sim.
Hoyoverse has really taken everything they have learned from Star Rail and ZZZ animations and applied that to Genshin to amp then up! I'm always impressed by their work!
I'd really like you to watch Capitano vs. Mavuika. It's a different GI cutscene which I think is awesome. Regardless, more GI animation reactions please :)
8:50 possible jumpflood algorithm to generate distance field then you create the outline that way, genshin never fails to impress me with that simple effect lmao.
I don’t really know if goo reacts to shows but I would love to see what he thinks of arcane, particularly about the newest cinematic from league of legends
I mean, there’s a lot of fiery-haired women with fire powers in anime, especially in Hoyo. If anything, Yang’s the outlier, being blonde instead of red, and not having inherent fire powers
10:45 here's a lil theory that I made: Notice how in this scene mavuikas hair looks so short she's almost hairless, I think that most of the bigger part of the hair is the flame of the sword itself🤨
Shark rurning into a girl scene: Main character (girl in this case) can posess saurians to gain different modes of movement in natlan region shark is water saurian that can move in air trough spirit ways (yellow ground you see)
Now that people from Natlan are visiting other places I'd love to see Xianyun learning about their technology and getting competitive trying to prove her designs are superior.
@@pyronado4320 well natlan basically has its own inventor since xilonen made the drill machine kachina uses and i think that flying revolver chasca uses 😂
Haha nice to know I wasn't the only one who noticed the Yutaka Nakamura inspo 😆 I felt it quite often in some of their action cutscenes, but the bit with the cubes debris took the cake
Loved the video @ProfessorGoo! Can't wait for the next video man! Definitely want to see your reaction to Mulani on the Channel man! Also, The "Drill Girl" is Kachina. Let me know what you think about this and I'll catch you in your next video man!
Hey Goo, Long time watcher, 1st time commentor, what would you advise someone who's trying to start game dev, but can't afford it (Before people start saying get a job, I'm Nigerian and still in university and the jobs or means of raising funds available to me are either illegal or a threat to me health wise, basically even if i get paid I'll have to use the pay to get treatment and medicine for the health problems) Please let me know, I've been learning everything on my own using my phone (cause that's all i have) I'm only trying to raise funds for a system (a laptop) to carry yhe software, ahy advice given is very much appreciated
Man, if you think this was cool then you should take a look at Honkai Impact 3's animated shorts -- there's a playlist that has them in chronological order, but if you ask me I'd recommend either Everlasting Flames or Because of You. Be prepared for impact frames there too
If there one thing I’ve learn from goo is how to appreciate impact frame. (And yeah, the green colour in flame do look sick, it reminds me of pyra from xenoblade chronicle 2😊)
I might be a little picky with this but if there is something that i really don't like is the fact that mavuikas marks are barely noticeable. Too yellow for how pale she is.
@@normalbirid79 ...Well, duh💀 I Just meant it is aesthetically like a dragon, with the mouth wings and shape. obviously the bike itself is not a dragon
Can you explain ones and twos? It is super confusing. In some context I hear, twos means half the frame rate. But the names implies odd and even frames.
babe wake up Professor is fangirling over impact frames for 16 min again
Me too 💪😎
Lmao true.
Fr
And then every cc have to shout out impact frame when they see one.
Fun fact, when I saw many impact frame, I always remember this guy 😂
for me, genshin has come a long way in terms of animation, and hoyo games in general
Which is wild cause they started out as being better than average.
Zzz animation and movement is on another level
crazy how they still cant incorporate new simple animations in rtc lol
@@tShuka_ the game base code may not allow it in genshin or hsr which is why it may be difficult to make the dialogues more animated
Zenless effect lol

Sad that the VA for Traveler was missing when Hoyoverse posted that scene on youtube
like missing missing or they still protesting?
@@anonfx6919 Probably still protesting since the traveler didnt have any voiced lines in english in the entire archon quest
@@anonfx6919 AFAIK VAs and HOYO are in the middle of changing studios. Previous studio refused budge on their ai policies. Hoyo decided to just change studios so not to wait all this time.

5:18 That's a random sword in game that the traveller is canonically using right now, it has no lore value in the current storyline. 9:20 The form that Gosoythoth took is that of the Pyro Dragon Sovereign, whose power was taken by Heavenly Principles to give to the Pyro Archon, I guess the 2 swords represent how they use the power.

Ok but where IS the pyro dragon sovereign? So far we've only met Neuvillette and Apep, the dendro sovereign. Are the rest just hiding out there?
@@doc1911don't forget Dvalin, isn't he a sovereign?
@@doc1911 the pyro sovereign is dead. He was slain by the heavenly principles for rebelling too much.
also @stargazer8g2 Dvalin is a dragon, but he's not the anemo sovereign.
@@stargazer8g2the only outright confirmed ones are Neuvillette and Apep,all they other dragons referred to sovereigns in game have been dead
The sword they hold (Mavuika's weapon) is basically a torch.
-How many impract frames we will have boss?
-Yes
That's why it's called GENSHIN IMPACT

There'll be more than one type of goo in this video
3:50 the orb slashing looks almost the same as ganons starting cutscene in breath of the wild, that might be were youve seen it
9:17 About that sword, Middle Of That Sword There's a Torch that Other Characters Can't Ignite that flame except Mavuika, In Lobby Character, Which is So cool
Can you put a moaning-warning in videos with impact frames dude? Now my parents are looking at me all weird.
sounds like your parents' problem...

and for main part of a hair emisson with some drivers with geometry nodes for animated part, if it's not cloth or other physic sim.
5:16 Ahhh yes... the legendary Prototype Rancour. It is given to everyone shortly after finishing the tutorial. No one uses it 😂😂😂
For a character that canonically uses the dull sword, traveler finally has leveled up their weapon xD
Hoyoverse has really taken everything they have learned from Star Rail and ZZZ animations and applied that to Genshin to amp then up!

whole Natlan singin the incandescent ode of resurrection makes me cry

the sword just suddenly appeared in the fire, i hope theres a little bit more effect to make it more satisfying instead of suddenly popping out
Anyone think Mavuika reminds you of Yang Xiao Long from RWBY?
I mean, there’s a lot of fiery-haired women with fire powers in anime, especially in Hoyo. If anything, Yang’s the outlier, being blonde instead of red, and not having inherent fire powers
@@captainphysics7391 True. But Both Mavuika and Yang also sport similar tops. And both drive motorcycles.
Sunset shimmer is the inbetween
goo really is an Impact Frame enthusias
12:15 hell yeah did they do the thing 🔥🔥🔥
3:50 so a similar effect is used when calamity ganon emerges from the heart thing in hyrule castle during BoTW
5:15 The weapon Traveler uses for all combat scenes are standard weapons. It does not follow what you have equipped in game
Feels so weird to not see a Dull sword haha and too see Traveler talking
Didnt knew you were ranking cutscenes too, u need to do some of hsr ones for sure
10:45 here's a lil theory that I made:
Notice how in this scene mavuikas hair looks so short she's almost hairless, I think that most of the bigger part of the hair is the flame of the sword itself🤨
8:18 Professor Goo needs a new pair of pants
You really should react to mavuika's animated short and trailer
Do a breakdown for Mavuika vs Xbolonque next. Your break down is great!
Shark rurning into a girl scene:
Main character (girl in this case) can posess saurians to gain different modes of movement in natlan region
shark is water saurian that can move in air trough spirit ways (yellow ground you see)
Can you see cookie run kingdom’s summon animations?
Xianyun has Electric bike, pressure cooker and Snowmobiles way before Natlan
( about Xiangling,
Cooking &
About Xianyun IV)
Now that people from Natlan are visiting other places I'd love to see Xianyun learning about their technology and getting competitive trying to prove her designs are superior.
It's not about what exists around the world its about having a Tesla while living in an indigenous tribe
@@pyronado4320brother Natlan tribes basically Wakanda

Haha nice to know I wasn't the only one who noticed the Yutaka Nakamura inspo 😆
I felt it quite often in some of their action cutscenes, but the bit with the cubes debris took the cake
the orb slashing animation feels like what they did for the HoV vs Himeko (HI3) fight where HoV did that on a cube
3:15 now that part reminded me of the scene in final lesson(hi3) with the herrscher of void's cube slashing
the form slashing is very similar to calamity ganon's from breath of the wild but so vastly different
Guys lets not ignore the fact that the traveler just used rassengan 1:24
And now Excalibur 8:22
11:51 this scene reminds me of Saber and Shirou's Excalibur attack
Loved the video @ProfessorGoo! Can't wait for the next video man! Definitely want to see your reaction to Mulani on the Channel man!
Also, The "Drill Girl" is Kachina.
Let me know what you think about this and I'll catch you in your next video man!
Could you react to any old Honkai Impact animation like 'Everlasting Flames', 'Lament of the fallen' or 'Last Lesson'?? Pretty pleaseeeee 😁😁
Now let's wait for Mavuika vs Xblanque fight scene
Now I'm waiting for the final lesson reaction or the flamescion animation reaction 🤣

These fire effects, especially the Girl on Fire riding a motorcycle are amazing.
Genshin is putting Yang from RWBY to shame.
When they showed impact frames im ngl, i remembered you fanboying over impact frames in the past and i was like "hes gonna love it" 😂

Rank honkai impact ultimates pt2??🙏🙏
friendly reminder, they did all that in HEELS.

Aww man you didnt include your 9 times analysis of Mavuika's burst
If there one thing I’ve learn from goo is how to appreciate impact frame. (And yeah, the green colour in flame do look sick, it reminds me of pyra from xenoblade chronicle 2😊)
i think you should react to limbus company animations
I use JP voices and for a moment I got gaslighted into thinking the scene was quiet lol.
Still not a scratch on Acheron vs Aventurine and Everlasting Flames, hell not even close and if we pull WuWa into the mix that's another one.
Please grade mavuika vs capitano!
You need to react to mavuika vs Capitano fight
I love cell shading
Mavuika vs Capitano is also a really good fight if you haven't seen that yet.
Considering how often Hoyo asked him to react to their games, I think he can't react as freely as other reactors.
@nurusds3 Potentially, unless they're just asking him to try promote themselves more. Not that Hoyo rlly needs promotion XD
How did you created the demon slayer fight scene bro
She's like yang xiao long from RWBY :3
Why r u right
mavuika's hair was very super saiyan esque for me
you gotta react to carlotta from wuwa trailer. probably the best character trailer in gacha history
can you react to wuthering waves trailer next?
React to Flow pls, it just won the award of the best animated movie in the world
Could you pleeeeease do ranking Epic Seven skills 🥺🥺🥺
I might be a little picky with this but if there is something that i really don't like is the fact that mavuikas marks are barely noticeable. Too yellow for how pale she is.
Yayyy finallyyyy ❤
the bike is supposed to be a dragon! when you ride in-game it gets a huge face and bites in the front. (and wings when you fly, tho only for a second)
It's canonically a normal vehicle made using technology. The dragon mouth is just special effect for the player. The bike itself is just a bike
@@normalbirid79 ...Well, duh💀 I Just meant it is aesthetically like a dragon, with the mouth wings and shape. obviously the bike itself is not a dragon
Bro are u not doing Wuwa animations and cutscenes anymore? IMO theirs are equal if not better in quality compare to Genshin
I just noticed, since when did the traveler upgrade from a dull blade?
5.0
Plss make new video for pgr part 2 , many more new char s rank like qu, Lamia,Luna, wanshi, hanying, Lucia, nanami, lilith, ishmael
Can you explain ones and twos?
It is super confusing. In some context I hear, twos means half the frame rate. But the names implies odd and even frames.
please make a video reacting to all Honkai impact 3rd cutscenes 🙏
No voice over for some characters
Do wuwa next
Could you react to Mavuika Characters trailer too ?
Bro really like impact frames
12:44 I mean you can still use it if you paid🤣Or get really lucky with your pulls
Can you react to the new characters in Wuthering Waves and Some cutscenes too?
Mavuika "Mauika"
Wuwa next
React to wuwa 2.0 animation pls❤
I sometimes feel like Ufotable might be helping them a little with these animations (don’t know why I think so tho😅)
Yes!
Its called genshin impact for a reason
