@@Draconis345 Hmm, did you already forget about the Schizophrenia? Luka was ill and was unable to fight at his best through over halfway the tournament, the fact he beat Topaz and her goons while in this state makes his feat even more impressive. Topaz basically lost to a nerfed Luka.
Technically, Topaz was going easy on Luka. Luka even asked why Topaz was holding back. She didn’t even use her cornerstone cuz she didn’t think Luka could threaten her.

Something Aventurine has in his favor is that everything he did was in the Dreamscape, so no one could have really died, and it's probably the very reason he did things so recklessly.
Agreed, not to mention that unlike some of his colleagues, Aventurine won't put innocent people's lives in danger for the sake of his schemes. It's actually emphasized more clearly in the 'All the Sad Tales' quest in CN : (From the HSR Wiki) In the English version, future "Aventurine" says "the only thing you "dare" allow yourself is death." In the Chinese version, this line translates more closely to "you would only dare to test death on yourself." This makes more sense with the following lines regarding Aventurine's refusal to use subordinates as sacrifices in his work. The subtext, then, is that although Aventurine is highly willing to put his own life on the line, he is not willing to make others do the same.

Yeah the ipc is despicable, i agree. But what i like about them is that star rail doesn't shy away from showing how despicable they are. Topaz and Aventurine's pasts reflect why they are what they are today it doesn't give them the excuse that what they do is right. In the end of the day they are neither friends nor foes but oppurtunists. I personally feel that they are one of the best factions in the game.
YES the topaz quest, she does such a good job in gaslighting the people that there are PLAYERS defending her... "she is just doing what she is told" or "the IPC genuinely wants to help". When I did the quest, it felt so heartless from her that she can type out all that in a special msg to Bronya but not hesitate a second to turn to violence when she was met with any resistance...to the very people of a planet she saw her _"past"_ in...
Problem is whether it was true or not since it continues even in the Luka Wardance. The reason players believed is because even Himeko confirms Topaz is the kinder stoneheart. It also helps Topaz that it turns out The IPC was going to overlook Jarillo since they saw it as more trouble than its Worth. So you could buy the idea that Topaz really saw the IPC as a force of good in the universe. Enough that she's willing to force players to be under the IPC if leaving them be to die is the alternative.
Trust me since the very beginning I didn't liked topaz at all like as if I knew she's evil and the way she just kept pressuring bronya and and the others was already clear enough what she really was. I don't know how players thinks she's just doing her job I think they are just simps

She just always steps up in the most worst situations and always gets out making herself the savior and it happened recently on war dance festival too.
The only reason the IPC is getting off the hook with these things, is because they’re basically both a megacorporation, and a space usa government in terms of scale.

@@mirageknight8070 bro?? i know i'm late but did you even pay attention to the story? Sunday genuinely thought robin had died and was mad at gallagher. when he found her out again in the secret dreamscape he was genuinely grateful that she was alive.
@@usubenidango Sunday was too calm for someone who supposedly lost his sister. And remember everything was under his control during that time and since nobody can die under Ena's Dream, he probably knew what was going on and didn't go ham on Gallagher.
I think if they are to become main antagonistic forces it won’t be till much later. Plus, I think they want to make the stone hearts mostly playable so they will probably try to make them somewhat decent people.
@@Fycku424 Luckily HSR's story isn't bound by probable and improbable of Real life. It if were so, I'd not believe we'd see a train floating through space boarded by a bipedal rabbit conductor thingymabob Besides, there have already been more and more characters and references towards the IPC which paint them in a more negative light. I do doubt we'll see a total downfall of the IPC, but I can imagine them to become a more prominent antagonistic faction
@@ThatMatkingthing is, IPC just like all the other major factions also has their inner factions with one of the good ones being the Strategic Investment Department aka the Ten Stonehearts faction. Then there's Oswaldo's faction which everyone including some of the IPC hates, the Marketing Development Department. Fun fact: in CN it's Marketing 'Trailblazing' Department and we all know Oswaldo is a former Nameless. Also it is said that even though he's worshipping Qlipoth rn, he still preaches about Trailblazing so that's why he has that colonialist attitude.
5:42 Just because the planet is broken doesn't mean they don't have education. Plus, it mentions the life-long contract. And we don't know how much time passed from when the IPC saved her planet, until she joined the IPC. The IPC could have easily established education facilities on her planet during that time (of course, it would be solely to train suitable candidates to work for them).
Pretty certain she likely was the best Candidate on the Planet. Remember there's Adventurine a Ten stone heart who came from a Back water desert planet as a Slave. The fact he got into the Stonehearts shows that they are looking for talent in the nmost unlikely of Places. And Topaz Closeness ro Jade tells me that Jade likey saw that in Topaz as well.
I don’t think Aven is seeking revenge against the IPC. In his eyes they are his saviors. More specifically Jade. Theyre all he knows. I definitely think so far he is the morally greenest of the notable IPC people tho, including Ratio.
@@wonderfulrose477I don't think he sees the IPC as his saviors, not does he think fondly of the company, for he knows that they were responsible for what happened to his people, that the IPC abandoned them to their luck to be slaughtered in the desert, and then he was subjected to be a slave, only being noticed by the IPC once he both killed his master and then tried to scam them, and even then they tried to execute him were it not for Jade.
Yeah if i have the option in the game i always pick the one that makes me actually aggressive to the IPC because i dont want to even pretend to like them
Its funny, the borisin were depicted as these evil vilans that most be stopped becouse they are warmongers and slavers, yet the IPC does the exact same thing and are treated as heros at best or morally gray at worst
Penacony is technically Disney though, so it's hard to root for them like in the case of Belobog, especially if you do the side quests where you see that the only difference between the modern Penacony and the IPC is the years between them and their reach. The IPC is just an older monster, while Penacony is on its way there.
y'know in the first scott event I decided to just hate on the IPC for the rest of my life no matter what the scenarist shows me was the best idea in my life
Also, I saw a theory that Acheron draw her sword because Welt is about to use the star of Eden and could cause more damage than aven but all of this isn't to defend aven, ik what he does was bad and I accept it so don't go arguing with me. It's pointless (cuz I knew I was wrong and I'm just pissing you off)
@@Ke_so_re My own theory about that was that if Acheron didn't match his gamble, he was going to walk back his attack. But regardless, this was happening in the dreamworld, which already makes the people there safer than they were in Belobog. And Acheron knew what the gamble was about and decided to match Aventurine, and let him win. Frankly, Sunday cursed him before this point too, with what sounded like personality dissolution. And Penacony is a mix of capitalism and religion, with very shady practices and locals and stowaways getting exploited, and so I don't see it as better than the IPC. The Belobog situation hit me harder to be honest.
There’s actually a lot of us but we tend to get drowned out by the Topaz lovers. That or we just stay quiet whenever the IPC comes up in online discussions.
Aventurine actually tried to kms several times to test that people cannot die in the dream world so he knows he won't hurt anyone irl even if he did the terrorist attack
And also new information came out that the ipc had a hand in what happened to dan hang because they wanted to now how his dragon abilities his reincarnation ability work
3:19 I would also like to point out that most of the robots that gepard brought with him are defensive such as the traffic light that can survive anything
And yet we the trailblazers happily just work alongside them despite what theyv done to countless people. Like boothill and still aventurine .numby is terrified of jade and topaz is so under jades spell she cant see it .
I blame Mihoyo for not allowing the us to have the option to choose passive aggressive or hostile dialogues with Topaz. Like imagine if we could choose and the trailblazer could say ‘Hey Topaz! How’s your retirement plans? Hope it’s going great!’
The Trailblazers actually despise the IPC. Their friendly interactions is just to not antagonize the IPC and be forced to fight them while they are on a crucial mission. Most of their interactions is just the Trailblazers tolerating the IPC but deeply despising them. March 7th is not subtle and openly shows her anger at the IPC in front of Caelus/Stelle.
And Jarilo-6 didnt even really need the terraforming Topaz was offering Welt said the planet wasnt gonna comeback to perfect weather but that it would get better in about 200 years so the planet wasnt even at risk of dying, the recovery was just really slow but for me that beats a 20% chance of the planet exploding coz it couldnt resist the terraforming process.
@@silverhawkscape2677 there’s still 20% chance that it will fail and fuck up the planet even more. I am not gambling my entire planet and future of my people over that small chance of failure. I mean people who played gacha games can understand that luck and chances can be a cruel mistress.
@@silverhawkscape2677 ….. the way Bronya reacted and Himeko implied says differently. Himeko did mention other planets that were unlucky and implied that they suffered a lot or something.
Quick mistake correction you have! Aventurine didn't bring 2 Cornerstones, but 3! He broke and stowed away his own, he brought Topaz and Jade's with him!
The IPC is really just the Planet Trade Organization with good PR. If Diamond ends up being Frieza in a nice suit, I wouldn't be surprised in the least.
I think even Fatui would hate those guys, considering some of them come from destroyed nation and leader is trying to rebel against tyrannical gods, and those guys just casually destroying planets like on friday night.
She is a morally grey character and i dont know about redeeming a character that almost destroys the herta space station, intending to resurrect an emanator of propagation and abandoning her creation without any care all because she just done with experiments.
I didn't like the IPC as soon as I learned about them and started playing the game. But when Boothill came along... I'm cheering for that man to take Oswaldo out in the most gruesome way possible.
@@nikibtisam8373 Well, at least you're being fair. I've seen plenty of people who are hating on Topaz and Jade while swooning over Aventurine at the same time.
Among the current IPC character, Aventurine is probably the most likeable character considering that we saw him a lot in main story and knew about his past. His crime imo was not as bad as topaz because you can't die inside a dream. Whereas topaz, gaslit an entire planet into either being IPC's slve or got their future taken away and fell into ruin
I still can't belive people think Topaz is a good person after she threatened to take away Svarog's free will and all the other things she has done on Jarilo-VI Topaz is a test to see who can see through manipulation
Tbf by that regard Aventurine is a bigger manipulator. People see through Topaz more than they ever do for Aventurine. Sure he has a sad backstory. So people think he's good. Also him blatantly: "don't trust me". He gets that from Jade outright giving the horrible conditions of her contract yet people sign em and fall for em. People trust that Aventurine is genuine somehow while he puts on facades. He is more likable sure but is he good? Hell no
@@s.m.farzana6072Agreed. Aventurine’s whole story is about him losing his innocence, his soul, and his identity as Kakavasha to the IPC. The story’s ending is a literal funeral for Kakavasha and Aventurine acknowledging he is no longer the innocent boy and man he once was many years ago.
@@ryankwon8785 agreed. The shadow realm one signifies that. Him saying he came here to look for his family . A place of the dead. Yet he leaves little Kakavasha behind there with his hat and he himself leaves. Also him only referring his past self as Kakavasha but himself as Aventurine. That's the "death" of Kakavasha
@@s.m.farzana6072 Aventurine is a manipulator. But my dislike for Topaz solidified when she used deep fake and video edits to make the IPC look good in how they handled the Jarilo-IV debt situation during a lecture for IPC students. This is seen in Topaz’s trailer. However, I sometimes believe that Aventurine and Topaz are merely playing an act like what Furina did in order to survive as IPC “slaves” and it is tormenting.
The only reason I enjoy Jade is because she is just unapologetically evil. I absolutely hate her as a person, but as a character she's well written. Doesn't mean I defend her, she's terrible and I hate that but damn is she a good villain
I think I need to apologize to you. I pulled Jade just because I like her playstyle. I do considering about her crimes, but when I know she can boost my teams damage, I also pulled her LC. I'm sorry 😭😭
I like the IPC they are really good written antagonist, they are a true villain faction in the end, the lawful evil faction, I'm so curious to see other things about them, by the way, I don't have any IPC member in my account 😂
im planning to pull for blade in the future, that's the sole reason jade is on my account, and im not kidding when i say that every day it passes, i regret it more and more.
Bro honestly if you don’t go into the whole terrorizing a dreamscape with a fragment of an eminators power situation as just two powerful people hashing it out, then it’s way easier to side with topaz because most don’t know much about eminators and could be persuaded to think that an attack by one could happen at any time instead of it being extremely targeted like it was for aventurine
It's crazy that even other IPC members hate Oswaldo Schneider. Just shows how TERRIBLE he is

Topaz was refering to the curse that Sunday put on Adventurine. Moreover should be impossible to die on Penacony.
Aventurine literally used Robin’s d34th as a gambling chip. Sunday was right in cursing him. He came to THEIR planet, started doing non-sense, so when Sunday defends himself he’s the evil one? The hipocrisy.
@@usubenidango thing is Sunday knew nothing major happened to her so that's why he was calm about it
@@mirageknight8070 bro?? i know i'm late but did you even pay attention to the story? Sunday genuinely thought robin had died and was mad at gallagher. when he found her out again in the secret dreamscape he was genuinely grateful that she was alive.
@@usubenidango Sunday was too calm for someone who supposedly lost his sister.
And remember everything was under his control during that time and since nobody can die under Ena's Dream, he probably knew what was going on and didn't go ham on Gallagher.
Dejavu.
Everyone knows what the IPC truly are, but no one can explain it better than you. Keep up the good work.
Make Scott Playable!
waiting of nova to talk about the oppenheimer quest lol
I really hope MiHoyo will take a more antagonistic approach with the IPC, instead of just leaving them unpunished as they are now
Unfortunately that's imposible in real life so it won't happen, if you don't believe me then have a look at history
I think if they are to become main antagonistic forces it won’t be till much later. Plus, I think they want to make the stone hearts mostly playable so they will probably try to make them somewhat decent people.
@@Fycku424 Luckily HSR's story isn't bound by probable and improbable of Real life. It if were so, I'd not believe we'd see a train floating through space boarded by a bipedal rabbit conductor thingymabob
Besides, there have already been more and more characters and references towards the IPC which paint them in a more negative light. I do doubt we'll see a total downfall of the IPC, but I can imagine them to become a more prominent antagonistic faction
@@ThatMatkingthing is, IPC just like all the other major factions also has their inner factions with one of the good ones being the Strategic Investment Department aka the Ten Stonehearts faction.
Then there's Oswaldo's faction which everyone including some of the IPC hates, the Marketing Development Department.
Fun fact: in CN it's Marketing 'Trailblazing' Department and we all know Oswaldo is a former Nameless. Also it is said that even though he's worshipping Qlipoth rn, he still preaches about Trailblazing so that's why he has that colonialist attitude.
10:37 Now all the Boothill fans are cheering. He is in fact the WORST one
The way i actually cheered out loud when I saw that
5:42 Just because the planet is broken doesn't mean they don't have education. Plus, it mentions the life-long contract. And we don't know how much time passed from when the IPC saved her planet, until she joined the IPC. The IPC could have easily established education facilities on her planet during that time (of course, it would be solely to train suitable candidates to work for them).
Pretty certain she likely was the best Candidate on the Planet. Remember there's Adventurine a Ten stone heart who came from a Back water desert planet as a Slave.
The fact he got into the Stonehearts shows that they are looking for talent in the nmost unlikely of Places.
And Topaz Closeness ro Jade tells me that Jade likey saw that in Topaz as well.
This is why I didn’t pull on topaz best believe I’m going for aventurine tho he’s a victim who’s gonna go on his revenge arc with boothill.
I loveTopaz. ❤❤❤
I don’t think Aven is seeking revenge against the IPC. In his eyes they are his saviors. More specifically Jade. Theyre all he knows. I definitely think so far he is the morally greenest of the notable IPC people tho, including Ratio.
@@wonderfulrose477 Id put Topaz as well.
@@wonderfulrose477I don't think he sees the IPC as his saviors, not does he think fondly of the company, for he knows that they were responsible for what happened to his people, that the IPC abandoned them to their luck to be slaughtered in the desert, and then he was subjected to be a slave, only being noticed by the IPC once he both killed his master and then tried to scam them, and even then they tried to execute him were it not for Jade.
@@wonderfulrose477the ipc didn’t do shit when his tribe became extinct, and he’s probably start enough to uncover the truth
Yeah if i have the option in the game i always pick the one that makes me actually aggressive to the IPC because i dont want to even pretend to like them
Its funny, the borisin were depicted as these evil vilans that most be stopped becouse they are warmongers and slavers, yet the IPC does the exact same thing and are treated as heros at best or morally gray at worst
Penacony is technically Disney though, so it's hard to root for them like in the case of Belobog, especially if you do the side quests where you see that the only difference between the modern Penacony and the IPC is the years between them and their reach. The IPC is just an older monster, while Penacony is on its way there.
y'know in the first scott event I decided to just hate on the IPC for the rest of my life no matter what the scenarist shows me
was the best idea in my life
If you started hating the IPC because of Skott, I think you should read Boothill's backstory.
I like topaz because of 2 big things
Her 50% fua dmg boost and her basic/skill are considered fua
I thought you were talking of... something else
Its actually 50 percent FUA boost.
@@silverhawkscape2677 oh yes you're right
Unironically that's the only reason I pulled her. I didn't even care for her design.
@@paul-k4b2x yeah bro, what push me off the edge was because i got early e2 Feixiao, so topaz was basically a must have
IM NOT A BIG FAN OF THE GOVERNMENT 🗣🗣
thank you for helping me remember that I'm an ipc hater.
9:25 even numby knows she is bad
FINALLY SOMEONE WHO DOESN'T LIKE TOPAZ!!!!!
Also, I saw a theory that Acheron draw her sword because Welt is about to use the star of Eden and could cause more damage than aven but all of this isn't to defend aven, ik what he does was bad and I accept it so don't go arguing with me. It's pointless (cuz I knew I was wrong and I'm just pissing you off)
@@Ke_so_re My own theory about that was that if Acheron didn't match his gamble, he was going to walk back his attack. But regardless, this was happening in the dreamworld, which already makes the people there safer than they were in Belobog. And Acheron knew what the gamble was about and decided to match Aventurine, and let him win.
Frankly, Sunday cursed him before this point too, with what sounded like personality dissolution. And Penacony is a mix of capitalism and religion, with very shady practices and locals and stowaways getting exploited, and so I don't see it as better than the IPC. The Belobog situation hit me harder to be honest.
I also hate her. Whatever her back story but i never like her....
There’s actually a lot of us but we tend to get drowned out by the Topaz lovers. That or we just stay quiet whenever the IPC comes up in online discussions.
YEAH SCREW HER!
That made me remember why I didn't pull for Topaz even if she's the primary follow up buffer
Aventurine actually tried to kms several times to test that people cannot die in the dream world so he knows he won't hurt anyone irl even if he did the terrorist attack
Ipc gave the feeling of that one certain country "congratulations you are being freed, DO NOT RESIST" kinda vibe
And also new information came out that the ipc had a hand in what happened to dan hang because they wanted to now how his dragon abilities his reincarnation ability work
8:51-9:27
Topaz could just see her as a mother figure. Second thought, that might be worse.
I hated topaz from the beginning.i knew she was evil and gaslighting girl boss
9:42 too bad I skipped 99% of the dialogue because i was just trying to get the stellar jades
3:19 I would also like to point out that most of the robots that gepard brought with him are defensive such as the traffic light that can survive anything
The time the IPC destroyed how ever many planets for trade routes with an atomic bomb. (Explained in a side quest)
And yet we the trailblazers happily just work alongside them despite what theyv done to countless people. Like boothill and still aventurine .numby is terrified of jade and topaz is so under jades spell she cant see it .
I blame Mihoyo for not allowing the us to have the option to choose passive aggressive or hostile dialogues with Topaz. Like imagine if we could choose and the trailblazer could say ‘Hey Topaz! How’s your retirement plans? Hope it’s going great!’
The Trailblazers actually despise the IPC. Their friendly interactions is just to not antagonize the IPC and be forced to fight them while they are on a crucial mission. Most of their interactions is just the Trailblazers tolerating the IPC but deeply despising them. March 7th is not subtle and openly shows her anger at the IPC in front of Caelus/Stelle.
And Jarilo-6 didnt even really need the terraforming Topaz was offering
Welt said the planet wasnt gonna comeback to perfect weather but that it would get better in about 200 years
so the planet wasnt even at risk of dying, the recovery was just really slow
but for me that beats a 20% chance of the planet exploding coz it couldnt resist the terraforming process.
Not really. 200 years is still a long time. And 80 percent chance of Terraformin the planet back to full health is better regardless.
@@silverhawkscape2677 there’s still 20% chance that it will fail and fuck up the planet even more. I am not gambling my entire planet and future of my people over that small chance of failure. I mean people who played gacha games can understand that luck and chances can be a cruel mistress.
@@teecheeong Sir. Failure here means nothing Happens. Aka Terra forming doesn't work
@@silverhawkscape2677 ….. the way Bronya reacted and Himeko implied says differently. Himeko did mention other planets that were unlucky and implied that they suffered a lot or something.
@@teecheeongthe planets that failed were left uninhabitable iirc
Quick mistake correction you have! Aventurine didn't bring 2 Cornerstones, but 3! He broke and stowed away his own, he brought Topaz and Jade's with him!
The IPC is really just the Planet Trade Organization with good PR. If Diamond ends up being Frieza in a nice suit, I wouldn't be surprised in the least.
I love this series so much lol
Our queen topaz STILL committing war crimes 💅
Bayverse Optimus Prime:"you have much to learn little one"
@@JohnTezlaNFSthinking about it, Optimus would hate the IPC lol
@@i.d.9754 true
"You can't get mad at me I cute" probably being said by topaz
I think even Fatui would hate those guys, considering some of them come from destroyed nation and leader is trying to rebel against tyrannical gods, and those guys just casually destroying planets like on friday night.
IPC as a whole is evil in the first place. There are other character like Ruan Mei who is generally not a good person.
Ruan Mei is way better than the average IPC member and she is morally questionable at best, redeemable, but with a lot of work
She is a morally grey character and i dont know about redeeming a character that almost destroys the herta space station, intending to resurrect an emanator of propagation and abandoning her creation without any care all because she just done with experiments.
Hahaha i pulled Jade, Aventurine, Topaz all for the meta and pure fiction needs......but i shall wait till i collect all stonehearts faction ❤
I didn't like the IPC as soon as I learned about them and started playing the game. But when Boothill came along...
I'm cheering for that man to take Oswaldo out in the most gruesome way possible.
i pull jade, aventurine and topaz. and make jade e1
10:55 yeah the guy who dropped a nuke on Boothill's planet and killed his daughter who just started learning how to walk
I absolutely skipped every IPC character. Just can't with these corporate demons
@@nikibtisam8373 Well, at least you're being fair. I've seen plenty of people who are hating on Topaz and Jade while swooning over Aventurine at the same time.
Good luck clearing the hard game modes without Aventurine then
Sorry I couldn't get my self to hate Aventurine even if you put together a slide show
Among the current IPC character, Aventurine is probably the most likeable character considering that we saw him a lot in main story and knew about his past. His crime imo was not as bad as topaz because you can't die inside a dream. Whereas topaz, gaslit an entire planet into either being IPC's slve or got their future taken away and fell into ruin
Yeah, I like Adventurine but I fucking can’t tolerate Topaz.
I still can't belive people think Topaz is a good person after she threatened to take away Svarog's free will and all the other things she has done on Jarilo-VI
Topaz is a test to see who can see through manipulation
Tbf by that regard Aventurine is a bigger manipulator. People see through Topaz more than they ever do for Aventurine. Sure he has a sad backstory. So people think he's good. Also him blatantly: "don't trust me". He gets that from Jade outright giving the horrible conditions of her contract yet people sign em and fall for em. People trust that Aventurine is genuine somehow while he puts on facades. He is more likable sure but is he good? Hell no
@@s.m.farzana6072Agreed. Aventurine’s whole story is about him losing his innocence, his soul, and his identity as Kakavasha to the IPC. The story’s ending is a literal funeral for Kakavasha and Aventurine acknowledging he is no longer the innocent boy and man he once was many years ago.
@@ryankwon8785 agreed. The shadow realm one signifies that. Him saying he came here to look for his family . A place of the dead. Yet he leaves little Kakavasha behind there with his hat and he himself leaves. Also him only referring his past self as Kakavasha but himself as Aventurine. That's the "death" of Kakavasha
@@s.m.farzana6072 Aventurine is a manipulator. But my dislike for Topaz solidified when she used deep fake and video edits to make the IPC look good in how they handled the Jarilo-IV debt situation during a lecture for IPC students. This is seen in Topaz’s trailer. However, I sometimes believe that Aventurine and Topaz are merely playing an act like what Furina did in order to survive as IPC “slaves” and it is tormenting.
I have Topaz and adorned her play style but Topaz also give me an ick since the first times.
i may hate the ipc but i love the people in it (ie aventurine lol and ig the other stonehearts as characters)
Can't wait till we meet obsidian, so we can get "This video will make you LOATHE the IPC"
Nah bro like how did they allow this CRAZY btch so high ranked 💀
boothill’s favourite episode
OKAY BUT WHAT DO YOU MEAN TOPAZ ISNT A VICTIM OF THE IPC LIKE AVENT WAS. WHAT,
What you Said about jade is sooooooo trueeee bloody hell
Didn't himeko confirm topaz's story?
this makes me want to summon for the ipc
If evil, why hot?
Would still pull for the IPC characters since they're an interesting bunch. Plus they kinda reminds me of every greedy corpo from Armored Core games.
Some of these comments really make me feel like I’m a sane individual. And I don’t know how to feel about that lol.
The only reason I enjoy Jade is because she is just unapologetically evil. I absolutely hate her as a person, but as a character she's well written. Doesn't mean I defend her, she's terrible and I hate that but damn is she a good villain
You not gonna give it to Ms. Bonajade like that.
Wdym make, i already do
took a second to realize this was a part 2 lmao. I thought it was just a reupload but I was absolutely down to just rewatch and keep hating
I think I need to apologize to you. I pulled Jade just because I like her playstyle. I do considering about her crimes, but when I know she can boost my teams damage, I also pulled her LC. I'm sorry 😭😭
Bro it's ok just because you pulled for her doesn't make you bad, you acknowledging her action doesn't mean you can't like her or pull for her
I like the IPC they are really good written antagonist, they are a true villain faction in the end, the lawful evil faction, I'm so curious to see other things about them, by the way, I don't have any IPC member in my account 😂
Just for that liar liar pants on fire joke, this video deserves a like
I refuse to pull for a single ipc member in my account and even ratio I will not build him ever.
Okay but the IPC pays me 60 stellar jades every day
A few days after I started playing, I got Jade because her banner was on. I didnt know who she was, but soon I felt I didnt like her in my team
As a Jade fan i like her bc she's evil
The fact Jade is a literal demon and based off Satan tempting
I already hated it when in game character said I P C, and Topaz appearing just stamped it officially as the IRS in hsr....
I like that they are actively evil unlike the stellaron hunters were it's implied
"All for the... you know it gets worse."
Technically Sunday was the one who nearly killed Aventurine, which then lead to him turning into his boss form. So he wasn't quite the aggressor.
7:12 I agree! I did NOT want to pull Jade because of that!
HAH You Cant Make Me Hate The IPC
WHEN I ALREADY HATE THEM
I pulled for Jade and got whaled fornher light cone since she mommy.😂
Lingsha Jade combo tempted me to pull jade on rerun but thankyou for reminding me why I skipped her
Do you have one of these types of videos for the fatui? I'd love to see a video how evil they are lol
im planning to pull for blade in the future, that's the sole reason jade is on my account, and im not kidding when i say that every day it passes, i regret it more and more.
Jade is on my account cuz I saw her trailer 🫥.(I am disappointed in myself)
I found Jade's LORE ACCURATE AGE. 2,000 or older.
I think topaz was talking about sunday psycologically attacking aventurine, not the acheron situation
bold of you to assume i didnt despise the IPC before
fun fact: jade is my fav hsr character cuz i like villains and evil characters
Bro honestly if you don’t go into the whole terrorizing a dreamscape with a fragment of an eminators power situation as just two powerful people hashing it out, then it’s way easier to side with topaz because most don’t know much about eminators and could be persuaded to think that an attack by one could happen at any time instead of it being extremely targeted like it was for aventurine
Now tell me the horrible deeds Dr ratio has done in the next part
