THANK YOU im glad someone can see further than the shallow optics of "buff scholar". i mean, the comparison is what got me into star rail in the first place, but i'm glad that discussion is being had. i also wonder, one of ratio's defining characteristics is the fact that he wasn't gazed upon by nous (due, most likely by his belief that knowledge is for everyone and his pursuit to raise the floor and allow access for all), do you think alhaitham _could_ be chosen by nous if he were in star rail? he certainly has the intelligence and self centeredness for it. idk something i've been thinking about
Being tired of the excessive buff scholar comparisons is why I was inspired to make this video! Also that’s a really interesting question about nous, I think I agree that he fits the standard a lot better than ratio. I’ll have to think about that more.
do you think alhaitham could be chosen by nous if he were in star rail? Alhaitham has no ambition to be something more than he is, and he has no ambition to be recongnized for his intellect. He got his vision, and he kept it in a box, because he literally had no use for it. :) So even if he was chosen by nous, he porobably wouldn't care about it. Just like he didn;t really care when he got his vision, or when he was chosen to be the next Grand Sage. He also has no ambition for sharing his knowledge. He will do it if specifically was asked by one of the people he considers to be close with (Collei, Paimon) but he doesn't go out of his way to 'spread' knowledge.
Huh. This was actually a very interesting analisis. Tho Alhaitham does put emphasis on the concept of 'truth' just like Ratio. Alhaitham does not make compromises regarding the 'truth' and he is considered an annoying/rude character because of this. He is not faraid to challenege/offend people to tell the truth, even tho he rarely goes out of his way todo so (regardless it happens very often) This is why Alhaitham and Kaveh went their separate ways. Alhaitham did offend Kaveh pretty much with the truth.
Thanks! I do see a lot of Eastern philosophy’s influences, but admittedly my knowledge of these philosophies is not as solid yet. I hope to work toward covering that eventually tho, a discussion centric video could work for a topic I’m not quite as familiar with!
WHY DOES THIS VIDEO ONLY HAS 800 VIEWS? this is so interesting. i feel like this video was made for me, you put into words exactly what i was thinking when people started to compare them
I loved the analysis of this video between both characters, it was pretty interesting!! learned a lot from it, and I do like Dr. Ratio more, he seems more friendly than Alhaitham
okie i have to sub cuz ur educational AND funny. amazing analysis of things, although it felt a bit fast... but its also 1 am where im at so maybe im just a tad bit too tired rn to follow as quickly as i should be able to 😅
they are different at the bare minimum of the fact that alhaitham in genshin represents one male non playable character with signature silver with slight highlights hair, they are like raiden ei and raiden mei while dr ration has different looks. I have no idea why people starting obsessing over the comparison which doesn't make much of a canonical sense because so far all the "copies" from different worlds like otto and luocha LOOK very similar. himekos too. ratio can dye his hair of course but isn't that copium?)
Am i the only one who never even considered alhaitham and ratio's similarities- to me they always seemed pretty vastly different in personality but idk 😭
The Clouds mention? *Click* Side note: I had a lecture about Aristotle earlier this morning and in it, Aristotle says that the highest level of happiness deals with contemplation (but it also needs to be practical)

Being chosen by Nous is not about being smart it's about pursuing a science without any care for anything else.

Very good video 👍 I did see a lot of similarities between the two but I personally think dr ratio is more distinct than althiethem personality wise
I’m glad you enjoyed it! I agree very similar but also very different
I always thought of Ratio as my personal Socrates: sometimes annoying, but also truth revealer and nice overall.
Pretty good video. I only wish it were longer. These characters are very interesting. Looking forward to your covering Eastern Philosophy in Genshin.
Thanks! I do see a lot of Eastern philosophy’s influences, but admittedly my knowledge of these philosophies is not as solid yet. I hope to work toward covering that eventually tho, a discussion centric video could work for a topic I’m not quite as familiar with!
They're not the same even though both are scholars. I prefer Alhaitham's personality much more than Dr. Ratio.
I’m glad to see that others find their personalities distinct!

Ahhh I’m glad you enjoyed!
THIS IS SO GOOD WHATTT
Thanks :)
say it louder.. SAY IT LOUDER!!

Loved your video! I completely agree with your points about both characters! Honestly I love them both for different reasons!
thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
I found this video really interesting! It's certainly a take and a perspective I haven't seen form anyone else so that's cool. :)

Hell yeah! Hope you enjoyed the Aristotle lecture!
Hey i enjoyed your analysis and I also enjoy Dr ratio's naked armpit
Lmao
I honestly love both men ♡♡♡
what is the background song at 1:02?

sorry this reply took years
Yes! They are not the same because clearly Dr. Ratio is a better character period
Their the oppersite
I found this video too late lol. Reason why I compared the two is because of ships 😅. Ratio with Aventurine and Alhaitham with Kaveh.
