Wriothesley has a sense of humor. When he doesn’t have to worry about the Primordial Sea, he cracks smart ass jokes. When Clorinde barges through his office door, what does Wriothesley say? “Ahh Miss Clorinde… my door.” Simple, I know, but the way that Joe Zieja delivers the line makes it fuckin hilarious. And with the researchers that work for him? Paimon jokes about them being together all the time, and Wriothesley expands upon it by saying “see? Everybody keeps askin this question. You 2 sure you’re not a couple and using your work as a convenient cover?” He can be dead serious when he needs to be, but be funny when he doesn’t. I 100% understand wanting to see more of em. Trust me when I say I do too, but I for one can’t help but love him already
THIS! i think wriothesely has such a fresh sense of humour. To me he kind of emobied this old middle aged wise guy typa humour. It's clever and observational with the perfect hint of deadpan (gotta credit joe zieja for one), I think his story is so ethically fascinating and it's the kind of thing I'd love to sit down and talk about. I think he's highly underutilized as well but what we have is great
didnt Wriothesley also make the first suicide joke in genshin when he said smth like "idek if im fontanian, maybe I'll throw myself into the primordial sea to find out"
It’s funny, me and my girlfriend were playing the Archon quest - me when it released day one, my girlfriend the day after - I got to the part where he says “Ahh Miss Clorinde… my door.” And I was on call with her and I blew a gasket laughing lol. My gf got to that part and I SWEAR to you I’ve NEVER heard her laugh harder in my life - she was laughing so hard she started uncontrollably wheezing xD
Honestly, I never see anyone saying this but your comment is absolutely why I love Wriothesley. Yeah, he's good looking and all, but it's the whole character and I do agree with haven't see ENOUGH. With Sigewinne and Clorinde coming up, I REALLY hope we get much more interactions with him.
Don't forget the "hm hm, how touching!" line. 😂 He is my main since i got him in the banner's first minute 😅🥰
Thoma's a sweet boy but they made him so nice that they can't think of any possible conflicts or stories to involve him in lmao
Forever hoping to see Thoma return to Mondstadt for Windblume and see if he has relationships with any of the characters from there fr🥲 it's the least they can do for my sweet boy
@@ToriSakura "Thoma coming to Mondstadt" gave me a burst of headcanons
For example, the impossible "Thoma x Eula"
@@true.creatorJ i mean, people already ship Thoma and Diluc because they believe they were childhood friends even though we don't know if they even know each other at all
He's not all nice and innocent. He actually has a terrifying reputation among people who are not close to him as mentioned in his story. But then again, Genshin has always had a problem with telling and not showing. Hu Tao's written story is great and heartwarming and all but in the end, all non-lore readers see is the cliche prankster anime girl when they play the actual game. This totally ruined my feelings toward her character.
@@f4llenleaves "all non-lore readers see is the cliche prankster anime girl when they play the actual game" Only if they have their eyes and ears completely shut when they're playing any quest she has a significant role in.
Cyyu: Puts Lumine over Aether
*Zach Aguilar wants to know your location*
Lol Fr, It low key hurts when someone pick aether then says they don’t like him 😅
Chat to Alejandro: "We're getting more on Cyno"
Literally his VA: NO WAY REALLY? LOL
When it comes to Childe, Hoyo really wants to drop the major lore bombs of him SOOOOO bad, but they're trying to hold it in until the Snezhnaya arc; once we hit that chapter, they will pop. XD
Yeah and it has me excited cus it shows how important he will be.
as an extremely biased wriothesley fan, i'm gonna add my two cents no one asked for. cyyu asked more of his backstory, right? EVERYTHING is written in his character stories, about how he managed to off his parents, free the other children, a bit of his trial, how he got his vision, how he spent his life in the meropide, and (this is my most favorite bit) how he overthrew the previous administrator because the guy was so corrupted, how he took over, his feats and achievements as the new fortress administrator AND how he got the title duke from neuvillette. everything cy asked for is right there.
i get the point of wanting to see/witness it through a playthrough story/event quest because not everyone has the time to read all of that, but you should consider that these characters are not made to have the spotlight. like, for example, we can't give wriothesley the same treatment furina does, or neuvillette, or... /checks note/ aventurine does (since someone in chat mentioned this too), because his role, and i mean wriothesley, is limited as a plot device in 4.1. he showed us the gate to primordial sea water, froze it, almost got drowned, introduced remuria-where he got inspired to build wingalet from-to us, and that's it, that's what he's meant for. it's a shame and a hard pill to swallow as a wriothesley fan, but it is what it is.
and this is by no means i don't agree with cy, because at the end of the day it's to each their own, but i wish people would just read his character stories. he's such an amazing and inspiring character, he's curious, intellegent, and it IS a shame all of that gets foreshadowed by his "cake" jokes running in the fandom. why am i saying this, because i've come across and argued with people going how he contributed nothing to the fontaine lore, or how he's irrelevant, and not interesting, EVEN going too far by saying he's an embodiment of prison propaganda, like huh? he's literally a victim of the system, committed a coup against the previous dude in charge bcs he was a horrible person. and people managed to... say that, it is baffling and sad.
so guys, if you want to know more about wriothesley, please give his character stories a read. if you don't have him, you can look it up on multiple genshin databases. he's very, very interesting. and we haven't even talked about his wit, yet. but yeah. sorry it's too long but it needs to be said ;-;
JESUS CHRIST you weren't exaggerating when you said extremely biased wriothesley fan, wow
The Duke’s strongest inmate, you’re doing god’s work. He’s easily a top 5 character and I don’t get why he isn’t more popular.
Also love how 95% of characters get the same treatment as him, more or less sidelined after their purpose (or not even involved at all) but aren’t given the same criticisms.
Well said!
I agree on this tbh
THANK YOU!!!! This explains exactly why he is such a great character! He is street smart, perceptive, and still shows humility, especially during the Archon quest. Wriothesley is such a well-built character. ❤
I feel so sad for Ayato ...he deserves more recognition, but the reality is that few people understood his story. The most part just want a loud hero that's shows their chest and screams...Ayato is not a guy who makes noise, he is focused, calculating and analytical character . His background is very beautiful...he lost the parents that he loved a lot, you can feel it in his lines, and after that the clan almost left the scene, if it weren't for his determination to maintain the legacy of the father he admired so much, they would not make it. He achieved a position of respect on his own merit, after that...and... he risked his own neck to save us, putting the resistance in the right place so they could fight, he could have died, but he did it anyway because he acted according to the principles of what he thought be right. And after the Traveler resolved the issue in Inazuma, he was able to breathe a little. I love the fact that he has the same VA as Katsura and Otto and also, Chris Hackney did a great job with him... I hope to see more of Ayato, he deserves more...a lot more...
I'm with you.He deserves A LOT MORE. he has a beautiful design a really cool personality and there's a lot of weight on his shoulders he needs to take care of his sister the clan the people's problems etc. he could've been so much better. i love him sm
its not even that people want a loud hero, people want ACTUAL SCREENTIME for him. Also mhy cant write smart characters for the life of them. They hyped him up only to drop a ball massively. Its a gacha game. U need to give characters screentime so ppl BUY THEM and CARE FOR THEM. The whole "he is operating from the shadows so he doesnt have a lot of screentime" shtick doesnt work here bc of this game's main premise being gacha and selling characters. Also, Wriothesley similarly acts more from teh shadows and yet he had so much more screentime. But yeah i agree.
@@fluffy_magnus Oh Hoyo will not give screen time to make male characters properly...they have no naked bodies to please the waifus enjoyers, they don't sell as much, sadly...so...they will always promote waifus over the lore or other characters..the thing is, if we know they do them poorly, so we need think by ourselves in the sense that we get the character by analysing their background and story...not by buying an idea from others...I see many people just repeating sentences about Ayato, but when you ask about their real knowledge of his lore...they don't know...so they just go with the flow...but, I got your point... it's a illusion though..they will never show him properly, unfortunately...
@@Calcharoistherealchad honestly I think it's a pretty outdated statement that male characters don't sell. They absolutely do (many banners proved that, especially Ayato's in jp) and similarly may waifus didn't sell at all and they got a lot of screentime. not to mention how characters like itto appear all the time despite not selling that well. It's just personal bias from mhy a lot of the times.
@@fluffy_magnus well...I hope you are right, cause I would love this outcome
I LOVE CYNO, LOVE HIM SINCE FIRST DAY HE WAS TEASED AND LOVE THAT CYYU IS HIS VA
HIS MY FAVORITE
100% agree. I will always be a Cyno main.
fr I thought that he was so cool since the manga, now I'm a proud C3 Cyno main 🥺
The reason I pulled cyno is because of cyyu and I just love cyno in general💜✨he's my main I double crowned him and he is definitely my second favorite character in genshin. Plus I love dad jokes😌
Cyno is the first character that I really, really looked forward to debuting in the game. I love that he's serious and terrifying while also having a loveably dorky side around his friends. Not to mention that I've been obsessed with his lore since his release (I can't believe we're finally getting his second story quest this update!!!).
After saving for half a year, I managed to C6 Cyno during his most recent rerun, and I will continue to main him for the rest of Genshin. 💜
Yeah I got to pull cyno again for my main account. I do love him and his awful cheesy jokes 😂
Nahida got absolutely shafted. Best archon who actually does shit, takes care of her people, redeemed scaramouche when raiden abandoned him and actually gave us information about our sibling. But the fact she gave away the gnosis (same thing yae and Nuevi did btw) thats why you dont like her? Nah i call bs
The hydro archon hello??? She also solved her own crisis
Zhongli literally giving the gnosis away through a damn 'contract he can't talk about' LMAO YEAAH
Bro Venti and Focalors were solving the crisis for their nation, were they not? And the info part isn’t really fair since Furina and Raiden know literally nothing, and Zhongli and Venti are being censorshipped by Celestia
Nahida is my favorite archon in part because we actually got to participate in her story and journey, whereas with Furina we were only audience members.
I mean, her hands were tied... Everyone knows the Fatui would've kept coming if 2 Gnosis were in one location threatening said nation and yet, as one of the physically weakest Archons, she still managed to bargin for the death of all the clones of the #2 Ranked Harbinger off a bluff...
What is Wriothesley other than hot? How about the cleverest character in Genshin Impact? He was literally toying with us for all of act 3 and 4 of the archon quest - he had everyone in the palm of his hand. He's book smart, street smart, inquisitive and curious, manipulative and cunning, and when he doesn't have expertise in something, he surrounds himself with people who do. He's incredibly empathetic and understanding, he has an incredible backstory, and he's just an all around cool guy. There's also so much cool subtle characterisation, like the way he just _basks_ when he's listening to music.
I legitimitely hate how fandom built their own, empty vision of who Wriothelsey is...
His like a slightly worse Neuvilette, an all-round great character, but while Neuvilette is like 9,5/10, Wriothesley is like 8,5/10
Nah dear, he is far from the most clever, his personality is nice, but nothing new and yeah his plot in the archon quest wasn’t exactly worth of the whole act 3, he is almost forgettable, contrary to Neuvi or Furina
but you like him and that should be enough for you, the video was based on Cyyu’s opinion, for him the character maybe wasn’t that highlighted
Just to be clear, I like Wrio, so this comment is not to contradict, I know he has a good backstory, but yeah…
@@mikonyx7712 I don't really see why the fandom chooses to compare those two characters so much. They both play different roles, with different personality traits, and different relations, in different stations. I get that they're both the tall males of Fontaine and both in a position of power but aside from that I don't see the similarity
@@bigpoof3349 Let me put it this way, if we are to determine things that are important for a character I'd say:
Gameplay Viability, VisualDesign,
Writing,
Fun factor.
Neuvilette would be all-round great character, with scoring high in all of those points.
Same goes for Wriothesley, albeit somewhat lower. Hope that helps
@@mikonyx7712 I completely understand and I agree
I was only wondering why people only chose to compare Wriothesley to Neuvillete in specific instead of the rest of the Fontaine cast as well.
It's so funny to me that I've never met a person who dislikes Kazuha. When I went to japan, his resell merch was by far the most expensive too lol
*k a z u s u p r e m a c y*
I actually liked him at first, but having like three events and storylines delving into the least interesting parts of his backstory while most characters barely got anything made me pretty tired of him. He got overplayed hard in the middle.
the way i did a little fist pump at wanderer reaching top tier like it was a personal achievement made me realize i may have a problem
Omg I just realised I also was thinking I wanted my favourites in a food spot and that is a bit weird lol - thanks! Haha
i did the same with Xiao
I agree i want to see the duke more especially since he's my favorite male character. He has a lot of backstory to work with especially since he's a orphan. I hope Wrio is from natlan or something.
He's from Fontaine. 1. He can't touch the primordial water but 2. If you check out his swim animation on a jump, he looks like a dolphin. That is only attributed to Fontaine characters only.
@@pinkpeonies3236 Ironically, he has this one voiceline:
"While I do possess some stereotypical Fontainian looks, when you're an orphan, you can never really be sure where you're from. Who knows, maybe I'll take a dip in the Primordial Sea one of these days just to check..."
Ayato doesn't have much reason for his lore to be explored so his character is pretty much done, but Childe's lore has been gatekeeped by hoyoverse to hell. It will be explored in Snezhnaya soon, especially when he's confirmed to be a major part of the Fatui's project
It's a shame because I love his character and I think he has so much potential
@@Thetiredteddy Agreed
8:47 PLEASEEE, HOYO PLEASE HEAR THIS MAN, IF U'RE NOT MAKING ANY ALBEDO RELATED STORY SOON, AT LEAST MAKE HIS OLD EVENTS AVAILABLE, PLEASE 😭
AGREE MAN
What we honestly need is a murder-mystery style quest, or even an event, where Neuvillette is present but more to set the stage, Chevreuse is helping gathering evidence, Wriothesley is one of the suspects, and Chiori is also involved somehow. Give us a chance to see a lot more of the latter three.
Um I'm not sure if you're aware but there was an entire event dedicated to basically just that
@@PeruvianPotato do you mean the Chevreuse event where Ayaka was there? Cuz yes that was cool but it wasn't really a murder mystery, it was sorta diluted by focusing more on the book-turned-movie
Plus for me the point is more to give Chevreuse, Chiori, and Wriothesley more time to expand their characters.
Gonna be honest, Fontaine has a habit of hyper focusing on like.. four main characters it's entire arc- Navia, Neuvi, Arlecchino and Furina. Everyone else is kinda side lined or their personalities are stuck behind limited, small events.
more like three, Arlecchino barely did anythings
makes sense. yea limited story events suck. but imo I feel like the way they present the characters in fontaine's been way more better, balanced & impactful ig? helps that the quest is much more lengthier to have others shine more. compared to mondstadt & liyue esp, hell I think most of their early chara's are barely in the AQ, you gotta do their own quest/hangout to rly get to know them (imo barely present ex: ganyu, kokomi, gorou)
even tho charlotte, sigewinne, wriothesley, had considerably brief moments compared to those characters you mentioned I feel like they had some pretty memorable moments at least, smth that rly stands out from their chara yk? (for me), even just from AQ. sigewinne's remarks/interest in observing human behavior, her whole: "I like smart ppl, I also like playing dumb & the feeling of being trusted"? wrio's just straight up cunning mastermind, but apparently also a pretty laidback guy & would crack jokes sometimes. I also rly liked & enjoyed hearing charlotte's whole perspective on why she's persistent in chasing the truth & her strong will to spread the news during one of the acts. it'd be nice if clorinde had more scenes tho, she did had some badass moments, makes me think she's a no-nonsense person too, seeing her dynamic w navia is a nice change of pace tho ig
@vnree oh absolutely, don't get me wrong, Fontaine has improved leaps and bounds of show casing characters in comparison to beginning nations. Like the fact I had no idea who tf bennet even was until I got into the hang outs and what not.
But maybe that is a me issue in a sense, I love the hang outs for the four star characters and kinda wish their was more hang outs to really showcase these characters personalities more often. Obviously there will be more over time, like hells.. kaeya got a random ass hang out after how long? But that's more so my own personal gripe about some of the four stars being introduced, hyped, then forgotten. I like having the connections and seeing their personalities shown individually. Again, that's largely just a me thing, I would say
Ikr, navia has 2 whole archon quest for her and she is still important in the final act
Would've agreed if the other "sidelined" characters werent so loved by the fanbase
I agree with the Wriothesley bit… he built the boat behind the scenes…
He does business outside the fortress with Navia and Neuvillete, along with taking in prisoners…
Where do we get this info? Through Pause menu and character Dialog… more specifically what I like to call, off screen land…😕
Note: I love what we’ve seen so far… but there needs to be more.
26:50 Happy to see that Faruzan's theme pushed her to the cool category! It's one of my favorites, and Madame Faruzan deserves it. :)
It's legit my alarm song
Wriothesley's tier was a criminal offence, How he did on the archon quest, what he did on his legendary quest, his trailer, his voice lines and the his lore, all of that is perfect!
He is a lot more of a preatty face and he show that.
I respect the Aether braid respect! It’s why I picked him too!
Fortress of Meropide should've been one act, not 2. I think that's why it feels so long and like such a slog. We're essentially there for 2 out of the 5 acts; on paper, it is less than half, but they made it so draining...
People need to remember that everyone is different, so that mean they're opinions are different. If we ALL were the same, think of how boring things would be.
Now as far as my fav chars go, yeah I'd rank this the same way CyYu is ranking them, from a personality POV because I don't have all of the chars, so I haven't played them all. Side note, I am glad I am not the only one who found Meropide to be a slong. It felt like the Samsara Festival quest all over again, but at least there it felt like we were progressing the story. It's also why I still rank Sumeru's archon quest over Fontaine, as awesome as Fontaine's quest was. I definitely plan on ranking all of the regions' archon quests at some point. None are bad so far, but they all have pros and cons. Monstadt was a great intro, but it was too fast pace. Liyue had some of my fav moments in the game, but it had the exact opposite problem, the pacing was too slow thanks to doing things with Zhongli. Inazuma had amazing char moments, but I've seen this type of story too many times in fiction, so it was not as 'epic' as I saw it. Sumeru's plot could have be predictable too, but how it did it is where it caught me off guard and I loved that, plus this is the only quest where I felt like almost every main char in the story contributed to the solution. But yeah it had a slow start though, especially with that Samsara. Fontaine had the best writing in the game, but from a gameplay perspective, it didn't feel like I was doing a lot. I enjoyed the investigation parts and that ending was EPIC, but the middle section really brought it down. Anyway, enough rambling from me lol.
Favs would include Alhaitham, Yae Miko, Xiao, and more recently, Neuvillette. My hot take, I actually like Dori lol, I enjoy troll chars, it's why Yae Miko is a fav of mine, but she's just much nicer. If I had to pick a 'worst' (and none of the chars in Genshin are bad to me personally), it be Fischl (not gameplay wise, she's still on my main team for a reason). I just find her constant LARPing very annoying and yes I did play the 2nd summer event with her, it did flesh it out, but her wanting us to always 'play along', it just got under my skin.
Not even lying, Aloy is the reason I picked Genshin Back up after trying it on release.
To me, it felt like the developers didn't even want her added. She's got no story quest, she's not in any events, she has no constellations, her kit is just meh. She did get a unique passive though, and they still bother giving her a birthday letter every year, so it's just confusing to me.
Kirara also got Aloy's passive, right? Not scaring away animals?
16:27 sayu was literally in the itto music event as a decoration u could poke, but she didnt wake up, like wtf??? also we really need a wriothesley story quest part 2 featuring why he has some of his scars, which didnt come from his first story , where he said he got them from a seacreature, but than says its a joke. I WANNA KNOWWWW THE TRUTH
I've done Wriothesley's Story Quest, I've done the Fontaine Archon Questline, I find him attractive, he has the whole bakery.
But I will have to agree, the Rizz Lord needs more. Meropide was also a chore, I agree. Like the OST, but hate the layout. Like, it was pretty cool for like 30 mins.
HYV, give the man more. Stop making him a beefcake under the sea that's also a fake werewolf, you can't give me that Cerberus constellation without making me think of werewolves.
GIVE. ME. MORE.
Omfg your comment reminds me of this one fanfic series where someone wrote Rizz-ley as a werewolf~😆
(Fyi, it is smutty and Wriolette, but it’s VERY good if you’re into that ship and like/don’t mind some of the tags)
@tigerlily2699 you can't just talk about a fic and not put the name😤
@@pinkittens Shit, sorry I didn’t see this until now! Hopefully you still see, but all I’ll say for you and future observers is look up Howlxte’s A Werewolf in Fontaine series in AO3. Again, PLEASE heed the tags as some things might not be for you, but if you don’t mind it’s a great read!
Saying Wriothesley only has his looks just shows how much attention some people give during the archon quest. He shows very much of his personality but because he's 'hot' most people lable him as that and don't think to look into his personality. Wriothesley has shown that he's cunning with stong principles, while also being charming and pretty chill. It makes sense that people want to see more, but then say what do you want to see?? His past? He gives a pretty accurate story about it in his own story quest. It doesn't make sense for the guy to just start talking about his past to a prisoner.
The way Neuvillette made it to the top 😂😂
While I think other characters stories are more developed, Wriothesley is by far my favorite character (closest is Navia) in not only Fontaine but the entirety of Genshin. He's funny, he's smart, he can be intimidating when necessary, and he cares so much for other people and has so much sympathy. I hope one day we get some more story and see him more in events and such, but while his story isn't as developed he 100% makes up for it in personality because my guy has so much of it. While I do think story contributes a lot to a character, I will 100% always choose a character because of personality first. The people saying "people only like him because he's hot" have apparently just missed how much characteristics they actually gave him.
Not to say people can't have their own opinions, that's not my point. But this is the reason why I prefer him over characters like Neuvillette. You can give a character all the story you want but if the base personality isn't something that you're really excited about there's nothing you can do about that.
my poor qiqi, she deserves all the love, you evil people 😢😅😢
I agree
I'm actually on my last hangout event with Kaeya, they definitely give you nostalgia for the characters we haven't seen in ages. Too many characters and they're mostly region locked.
Woohoo! Some Xinyan appreciation! Yes you should build Baizhu and yes do his story quest.
Honestly to understand and rank the characters you need to read all the lores related to them, bcs for example as a wrio stan his character story just makes me loves him even more, and not to mention everything he did on 4.1 was absolutely badass. He is the behind-the-scene type of guy and not a lot of people acknowledge that. Though I'm also sad that they missed a lot of chance for 'promoting' wrio during fontaine events and stuff
I think some people would rate a lot of characters higher if they would read the character stories for them. In the main story we often just got the abridged version or nothing at all but some have so much lore in it. For example Wriothesley or Kaveh. You can understand their character that much better after reading it.
Noelle is low key clutch for me since I accidentally got her C4. Healing and Shielding in one is great! Also I love seeing fellow Heizou enjoyers
Wriothesley is getting the Eula treatment
Btw Aloy was an obligatory thing so that Genshin could partner with Sony for them being on ps4 and they had no time they could wait
One day, we'll get more Ayato, one day 😭😭 He has so much potential to be really fun and interesting
I doubt it. He doesn't have much reason to be the main focus
@@Azaleaaah in Inazuma events He could have more screentime, or maybe in the potential AQ continuation if they ever plan to do something about the possible electro soverign underneath Inazuma
He doesn't have to be the main focus, as long as he in focus, I'll be happy. Cy Yu experienced it himself, the minor interactions that Ayato had with Itto made him so much more likeable (They rarely show Ayato's goofy side)
So even a bit of exploring more of his character would be a huge improvement.
@@mikii278 Thing is I'm pretty sure Inazuma story is done. We're moving on to Natlan next then Snezhnaya, and we know that Mondstadt isn't done as well. With the way hoyo treats his event appearance, I doubt he'd play a major part in any events
@@Azaleaaah Why are you being so negative , its not impossible 🤣🤣 We just had him be in couple of events already in the past and he's been mentioned in certain events already.
Like I said, I don't mind if he's the main character in the event as long as he gets a focus on it so it shows his different sides, which as you can see they're steadily doing
Cy Yu saying how his perception of Ayato improved cause he saw more of his personality is of proof that Hoyo showing Ayato's different sides is working too
@@Azaleaaah Plus the thing with Inazuma was primarily from a theory anyway; based on a world quest there it was stated that "Something big was being held down underneath Inazuma"
With Fontaine releasing and Mond bound to have a continuation later it would leave Inazuma as the only nation as the only nation with 3 AQs
Its copium yeah, but I'm pretty sure that we're allowed to cope for what we want to cope?? Almost every Inazuma chara was butched by the AQ so it wouldn't only be Ayato benefiting from it
Signora mains are still coping she'll be revived in Natlan and I'm not going to judge them 🤷♀🤷♀
am i the only one who loved the meropide quest? i had so much fun! one of my favs in the game, especially in the main story
I liked the Prison worker simulation, but it was kinda annoying going up and down all the time.
@@ryoshusuke2108 thats real, i kept getting lost because i kept staring at all the cool details of the prison LMAO
CyYu: puts Mona in COOL
Also CyYu: puts Diluc in “ok”

33:31 I have both Chiori and Arlecchino (I accidentally did a ten pull on Chiori’s banner and got her) and I can say without a doubt they’re both great, use Arlecchino’s skill then switch to Chiori and once the cross has baked (it’s how my brain puts it) use Chiori’s skill (it seems to trigger the crystallise reaction too which gives a quick shield giving the opportunity to just hit, but that’s only if you don’t have a shielder) to swap to Arlecchino and immediately do Arlecchino’s charged attack to get bond of life. At least that’s how I use the two
W list, I miss sumeru a lot lol I hope we can go back for a festival it’s been so long
This is what drives me crazy about Genshin - Amazing characters who just never get fleshed out. I get it, its a gatcha and they're always throwing in more to collect, but I want to explore the characters we get. A number of them desrve better, a number of them feel shallow and so many of them just feel incomplete/stereotype first(only). We got some real champs in there but nahhhhh
the thing is a lot of them are fleshed out and have a lot of lore but only in there character stories which is not ideal. Genshin has a general problem with gatekeeping important character lore through limited events, if you have the character or not or books and artefact and item description. There is a lot of it in the game but not everyone will find and read all of it.
Last time I came this early I had to lie and say it's never happened to me before.
Your tierlist was so funny to watch!!
I actually agreed with everything you said 💯
... that's crazy lol
I would kill for an Aloy story quest, I know it’ll never happen, but still
I’m surprised I agree with so much of this list. I personally adore Yoimiya and I would toss Furina into biased, but Cy is 100% right on who deserves better
No but I cannot even begin to put into words how f*cking cool Tighnari is. The sass, the kindness, the interactions between him and other characters, he's just a damn icon like genuinely. It's no wonder that so many people flocked to him in the Akademiya, he's just someone you can't possibly hate because he literally gives you no reason to. You can't even TRY to be mad at him. And I adore that a lot. Great writing on Hoyo's part there.
(+Additional bias cuz Cyno Tighnari and Collei are found family and I adore that sh!t)
The way chat was grilling Cyyu over Wrio 🤣
8:30 OMG TELL THEM. As an Albedo lover be our voice please 😭
We literally saw Albedo one patch ago in that cat petting event
Ik its a late response but he means the lore the cat event didn't show anything about the lore if you played the 2.3 event you probably know how deep it is And if you didn't let me just say he have one of the biggest and deepest lore in the whole genshin story and there is still a lot of that we need to learn and 2.3 was left by a huge cliffhanger. Im just saying these because I want more People to know about how deep it is 😭
@@kanade5983 bro as a new player ive finished every archon quest and seen albedo 0.5 times idk i think they just dont care
@@grqfes yeahh because he always come in events you can check them out there is sm that he is involved
I will be real Dehya deserves better treatment, but she was the absolute BEST during the archon quest and her story quest, SHE RULES
Considering this is the 2nd time that Yae Miko's kit is being mentioned as "not fixed," I'm going to say this: she functions exactly how MiHoYo intended.
Just say you don't like her playstyle. I know I don't like her playstyle. Maybe her constellations make her "better," idk. Neither her character nor Dehya's character nor any other characters are broken (derogatory). Miko was built to work with dendro. Dehya was built to work with Neuvillette (if you don't have his c1), to make exploring the desert less stamina consuming and probably as a unit that will help us greatly in particular parts of the Cryo nation (Childe has a voice line tht says if you still too long you'll freeze in his homeland; also in both animations that show the cryo nation's landscape: nothing but snow).
I am happy about Neuvillette being at the very top because he is my number one favorite character. Wriothsley is my second favorite, and Raiden is my third favorite.
Cyyu, first you miss my cyno themed bday party, now you decimate me and my darling boy ,chongyun’s pride. I want an apology with tears and blood.
When CyYu was explaining Wriothesly I (as a personal Wriothesly lover) realized how much more screen time Wriothesly deserves. I also agree that we got samples of Wriothesly’s backstory like we need so much more of Wriothesly.
CyYu is also so correct about Albedo he needs so much more story development and more love along with genshin
Meropide was a slog but seeing him was basically the light at the end of the tunnel. I enjoyed his character so much, seemingly always in control but instead of feeling always threatened like with Arlecchino, he lets you be comfortable until he gets serious. Love the interplay between him and Neuvi and clorinde.
Hooktails BGM hit me right in the nostalgia.. Well thanks i'm gonna play Paper Mario TTYD now.
Have fun with TTYD remake then 😄 I should play it
I’m just glad Neuvillette is on top tier
I'm very happy to see that Xinyan getting some love for once.
When you put Qiqi in the don't like category, I'm like just pondering for the day I finally get her because I don't have her yet. I still never got her in the character banners presented with really good characters🤣🤣
I’m still amazed she has no character quest. She doesn’t even do much in others quests. She shows up in the MSQ once as a joke. We don’t even have a zombie halloween event!
Bro take mine. She's legit the only 5 star in my account that I genuinely don't want (though I only have Neuvillette and Nahida)
@@PeruvianPotato strongbox her
@@grqfes no
It's so cathartic seeing people officially connected to the game recognizing how dirty they did Dehya
I really wish they'd stop gatekeeping groundbreaking opinion-changing character info behind their friendship levels (and events??? Albedo ftw,) I am a HUUUUUUUGE Lyney enthusiast and I won't spoil but a big part of his lore and what he's going on to be in the future was kept away from everyone since 4.0 😭I'm glad Arle touched upon it in her quest because bro is so cool and I wish we got to see more of his internal struggles outside of it ! (Glad to see his family man side as always too though 🤝)
You mean... the story quest? The story quest that you can do RIGHT NOW? There wasn't anything else in 4.0 regarding him, if were not including the Archon quest
@@mikonyx7712 He HIMSELF came out in 4.0, with that he had a ton of voicelines that are unlockable via friendship level. One of which he directly says what was discussed during the Arlecchino story quest in 4.6,,
When he was about to put Kaveh in ‘can’t stand the sight of him’ I nearly had a heart attack.
8:19 INDEED we need more quests about him, finally someone who said that!!
I agree that we need more Wrio, I miss his dry humour immensely and we haven't even truly left the region yet
I would put Childe higher. He deserves more love.
and Diluc too cus Diluc is cool
It’s always sad to see people not like Qiqi purely because of the 50/50 like if I say I don’t like Tighnari because I have C12 of him imma get jumped 💀💀💀
37:44 not beating those “DBZ fans don’t read” allegations anytime soon 😂
Cyyu you got people writing paragraphs in the comments goodness 😅🙏
As an biased Neuvi and Wrio fan, wrio deserves so much better.
He had so much potential for popularity.
Imo the reason why he isn't as popular as someone like Neuvi or Father is cuz hoyo isn't "showing" much of wrio. We got to experience sooooo much story related to father not to mention the sick animations. With Neuvi, he is very unique. His backstory was very clearly shown in his story quest and we have a very good idea with whats going on with the boy just by doing the archon quest and his story quest.
For wrio, we only got a small scene of his backstory in his story quest. Everything else we need to read ourselves. We also just don't get enough time with him in the archon quest. He has content but people just don't want to read it. Thats why hoyo should just show instead of having people to read it.
I also wish I could see characters like Sigewinne and wrio out of the fortress and into more events. It would be so great to have them in the overworld.
Genshin can produce a lot of *great* designs. Its just with every single update and 2 more regions left, Hoyo still needs to give a lot of explanations for just basically teyvat and the dain stuff. There are still a lot of questions with no answers and we're getting closer and closer to snezhnaya. I understand every character can't be that well designed and have a very clear and amazing backstory like father but if you're going to give a character sick designs, might as well try to show more then having the fandom read about him/her. I agree with cyyu that we need more for wrio, if hoyo just gives him more content in the game then I'm sure it would be so much better.
Neuvi still on top let's go
“Aloy is the RWBYxDC crossover of Genshin” is such a specific comparison but so true: both things are enjoyable on their own, but together? Eeeeeeh……
So happy we've got an event in Inazuma, Thoma was there so a minute or two, like yeah, that's nice.
And also Cyno's backstory, like JUST RECENTLY, OH MY GOD-
Any infinitesimal scrap fondness for Aloy that I have has been eradicated.
Just met some Aloy main in coop and they kept bullying a Neuvillette and Raiden player calling them useless and it even went to some inappropriate stuff I won’t get into.
Me: Damn... Cyno has his own category? Welp thats just better -Cyno main
The Qiqi hate pains me. My daughter...she's trying her best.
I wouldn't hate her if she didn't cause my account to become broke due to being forced to getting Neuvillette at hard pity
Fun Fact: I started playing Genshin BECAUSE of Aloy (I just had finished HZD and loved her). LUL
Wasn't for that collab, I don't know what I would be doing during the past 1000 days I'm playing Genshin non-stop. hahahahha
(and yeah, she's bad in game and the collab was really.... ughh... but I triple crowned lvl90 her as a thanks nonetheless)
TLR/HLD in the Backrooms:WHAT ABOUT ME YOU PEANUT BUG?
Finally someone who agrees that fortress is longer then it should be…😭 personally my fav thing is the story, the lore and everything related to the whole history of tevyat and im prob the biggest sumeru fan out there. I loved the quest sm and didnt mind that it was like such a long quest. Same wity fontaine i loved it so so so much but then we got to the fortress.. it was rly good at first but after a while i just wanted to leave.. it was like even a pain to just look at the interior.. so dark so boring and doing the same thing over 5 times was just getting boring.. i love every part of fontaine but the fortress part should’ve ended a bit faster
As an Alhaitham fan, seeing you put him so high made me so happy. lol Also, tbh, I actually agree with most fo the list. Feel bad fo Diluc as I think he's pretty cool personally, but I completely understand why you placed him down there. Also, Cyno? More like CYYES!!!!!!! \m/ One more thing, I am sad that some characters have potential, but are being wasted and not getting the spotlight they deserve. It's a shame.
To salty, immature twitter users who can't handle the opinions of others: Touch grass and grow up.
as hes talking, you can hear the gestures hes making and i think thats endearing.
dont let chat bully you cy. your placement on wrio is valid. personally id put him in indifferent.
Chat jumping on cy yu for wriothesley was so funny lmao
I just found out that you are Miyamura's English VA! His my favorite romance anime character😊 🎉
I had no idea Wriothesley would be where the gauntlet is thrown down. XD XD XD As a Wriothesley fan who invested so much into C0 Wriothesley that he's stronger than mine and my sibling's Raidens... (and I hope to C1 him some day), I totally agree with your opinion on him. It's not like you put him in a low tier. I totally agree with the category you put him in. And your opinion on the Meropide quest. I HATED running back and forth and it was my first time using the multi-level system.
High recommend for Faruzan's hang out and Baizhu's story quest. They're so fucking good. And big agree--Meropide was some of the most egregious dogshit pacing in the entire game thus far. I can't believe that shit got greenlit.
Also this Dori slander will be remembered. >:(
As a fellow cyno enjoyer (I call him my son) we take these Ws
Based, Lumine is the superior traveler
I agree
Also agree
I think the (Japanese) VA of Dori did an excellent job and I absolutely can't stand hearing her talk. Maybe if the voice acting wasn't as good I wouldn't hate her as much xD
Lumine is a bowl of cuteness. Remember the cooking event in Wangshu Inn?
I didn’t think you would do this nor did I imagine that I would want this yet here I am.
I love Aloy but she will always make me upset. U can tell that Hoyo only did it cuz it must have been a requirement for them to have the game on the console. She lacks so much and made the concept of collab characters so unappealing and thats entirely their own damn fault. Her release makes me angry, especially and almost exclusively at hoyo since they could have taken the stick out their ass and did her right but they couldnt be bothered. As someone who has built her and loves her. She has so must potential to have been a grest unit.
*Me a Kaeya Main sees where he placed Kaeya* : Haha Nice
I really enjoyed the Paper Mario The Thousand Year Door soundtrack playing in the background. For the most part, I agree with the tier list.
I’m glad that Tighnari’s being remembered as the diligent, hard-working, smart and compassionate Forest watcher he is, and not his old VA.
as a wrio main i'm very proud of chat. and the comments.
Cyyu’s life flashed before his eyes when it came to Wriothesley 😂😂😂
