You can tell it's two different artists who do them. One seems to do more dynamic poses with more intricate shading while the other does more still poses and flatter shading. They're super similar just slight differences.
If you look closely one is made for character introduction art while the other is the pose of the characters when they do their burst, i guess back in the day, Hoyo wants to tease us with the character introduction art first then when you finally wish for them you will see how they will look like when they do their burst
yeah i noticed and i think you can see it mostly with Xinyan, Xiangling, Diona and especially Venti and Klee. Diluc as well, even the hair is different. I personally think the original burst drawings have a warmer vibe idk, and the promo art for Venti makes him look so different from his splash art.. more welcoming kinda? It's the eyes, probably. Also is it just me or does Klee's facial expression look kinda scary in her promo art? lol
Really wish they kept making both promotional arts and gacha arts for every character. I mean, why wouldn't we want more content and give artists more commissions at the same time? It's not like making a separate art is going to financially destroy Hoyo or delay updates. Artists draw multiple different concepts and poses for every character anyways.
@@theploot8230 It makes the characters look more interesting. Like how models give different poses and angles to show off slightly different vibes and what they might be thinking as the concept. I certainly miss when Hoyo used to give two different arts for the characters as the gacha art (dynamic battle poses foreshadowing in-game playstyle) becomes something I can look forward to when pulling after seeing the character in drip marketing having resting/idle standing poses. It's just more exciting that way for me.
@@theploot8230 it’s not pointless you see it’s for promotional purpose thats why it’s called promotion art😭 they often use it for freebies in offline events.. also more variety is always good, especially now they do something like drip marketing
a bit sad when they stopped doing different arts after hu tao and started with rosaria. wouldve loved to see if what it would be like if all the chars had two different arts, one for splash art and the other for their promotional
While Promotion art promotes the character, splash art seems to show the character's personality more and it also references one of their in-game combat attacks. It's such a waste genshin doesn't do splash arts anymore, it would've shown the characters personality so well
It isn't even that bad. But indeed the splash arts were more dynamic. Still, maybe my eyes just love the novelty because I really liked some even if they were on their alternate pose for splash art
I think the art they used for both promo and gacha splash art are super detailed and expressive. The composition made the characters in a vertical position unlike before like with childe and albedo gacha art spread across the screen making it more dynamic.
They probably went for the splash art in game bc the ones in game have a more identifiable silhouette or line of action. Like with albedo’s they made is arm more visible. Most likely bc it starts off as black when you wish :D
personally it's a mixed bag, the the poses on the right side aren't as eye catching, but some of the details are higher quality like the eyes or the hair. The left almost has a bloom effect to the shading but the poses feel a lot more appropriate, though Barbara is the one of my few exceptions ;)
You missed The Wanderer’s since he has a different pose for splash art. But this is so cool Edit: @KerubielZ I didn't know that you struggled for Mona and Wanderer. I just saw the comment right now. 🤦♂️ but it's alright
The amount of silly “Genshin bad” propaganda these days is just laughable. Imagine paying an artist to do a second separate artwork of a character that is seen exactly once when you pull him or her from the gacha. Now that’s a waste of money.
@@グルイズビオ It's not that it's tough or that they're lazy, there's just isn't really a point in adding that, or having 2 splash arts overall, having a single recognizable art of a character is just more convenient both in marketing and in management, we care too much about this silly stuff as fans but for them it's really nothing important, when it comes to marketing and programing all we see is the end result, but it's way more complicated behind the scenes, there's millions of tiny details and decisions they have to account for, things we take for granted and don't even notice, so if they can cut corners of course they will, i mean, why wouldn't they? I mean just think about it, there's probably a lot of rejected concepts of splash arts we don't even know exist, it's not like they'll pick the first thing they come up with, so they're only shooting their own feet by having to go through that process twice, if they didn't cut corners we probably would have a version update every 3 months or something with barely any noticable difference in the end product (at least from a fan perspective).
The one on the left is actually doing something with the things that are happening around putting the, into action. The right one just slapped Idol poses on some and it made no sense with the things around them. Like Amber, Ninnguang, Lisa, and Diona. Their were very obvious things around them that they should interact with to make it better.
That's because the right one is not supposed to be a splash art but a promotional one. Their art is usually shown when announcing a character which mostly has a white background. If you slapped the characters from the left to the right side's bg it would be off too. Honestly, this is what i like when i started playing the game when it released. Now you can just expect that the promo art is the same as the splash art.
one on the left made creative poses for the splash art making it look like the splash art is doing the skills or burst animations in some way while the other one on the right is just them posing like on ambers it feels off for some reason seeing a standing amber while theres an arrow beinf fired from her side??? it is all a big improvement
I think it's strange that they stopped doing that, usually as games get momentum and get more budget they would add more details like this, not take them away lol. Not doing two separate arts feels more like a step backwards than anything...
Most of the alternate splash arts were actually the first ones created. Remember how in the beta footage there were only the alternates ones and probably changed mid development, to be more dynamic/energetic. Also don't forgot all characters designes till 1.3 were long before fiinished, that's probably a reason why they still have these alternates splash arts
i miss the old time when i played on the phone very fluent to play,since genshin released i've play that and know how nostalgic the splash art when pulling wish on venti banner😌🥺
at one point i'm glad that they decided to stick with one art per character mostly because i didn't really like those introduction arts compared to splashes on the other hand...they could just hire an artist with the same skill for those introduction arts and still make them different
Why did they stop doing alternate splash arts tho? And why was Furina announced with a different art, why did she get sth like "the alternate splash art"? Why is she different?
Omg this is so intresting, I always saw 2 versions but I always thought the one that has thinner lines and looks more animey was fanart (it’s the one on the right that I thought). That’s cool but I prefer the one on the left
This video made me think about our innocent tuna who now lives on the moon, honkai impact had one of my favorite stories in games. The trio will always have my heart even though the new mc’s are Seele and Susannah
Dude. First, redrawing kudos id just have a stroke from the amount of transparent png Second I was having a stroke like; where have I heard this song and why is it giving me the feels? Then the light bulb moment and I literally just went "OHHHHHH"

wait so the second ones are legit ones? I thought they were edited? :O wow I haven't played in so long
@@sweetpotato469 No, they are edited. They mean that they remember the time where the splash arts were like this
They were never like that. I’ve played since 1.0
The only characters with splash arts changes outside of outfits are Kaeya(was 3D), Lisa(Also 3D), and Razor
The oficial art is diferent from gacha art, but i dont remember when they removed this maybe 1.4 or 1.5
a bit sad when they stopped doing different arts after hu tao and started with rosaria. wouldve loved to see if what it would be like if all the chars had two different arts, one for splash art and the other for their promotional

Honestly Diona and Lisa’s don’t look too out of place, like if they were actual splash arts I wouldn’t question it.
same with Klee's
So does Barbara's, it looks kinda better ngl, it suits her cheerful and happy personality more.
gotta agree lisa's other splash art hits a lot harder
Same with Fischl's
Xiao
Old Character Art make me remind all good time with my friend but now every my friend no longer in Same way

@@toastee5421 ?
Bur Wanderer splash art doesn't have noticeable different pose, his hand is changed and he doesn't have a hat, that's all
The only difference in Wanderer is that he has no hat and his arm moves just a tiny bit
Cyno technically has an alternate art which can be seen in the traveil triler like diluc, it's just not included in the games data
.........the music.... oh my god.... please no....
Yea very terrible song
Oh god the song 😭
Of all the options you can make why this music 😭
Do you want Final Lesson or what 😭
ah yes i really miss their double splash art but the devs is getting lazy since rosaria released
You mean Hu Tao? I presume.

He's giving u a thumbs up while his bad luck is causing chaos in the back XD
THE HONKAI IMPACT MUSIC- 😭
Zhongli looks so goofy omg 💀
Yes😭
Keqings honestly the best, the normal one has too much going on, alternative one though is calmer.
I think the pose fits more for the art elements tho, as it fits her elemental burst
one on the left made creative poses for the splash art making it look like the splash art is doing the skills or burst animations in some way while the other one on the right is just them posing like on ambers it feels off for some reason seeing a standing amber while theres an arrow beinf fired from her side??? it is all a big improvement

They also stopped doing the birthday events in CN where both travelers had artwork with the characters :(

why did i cry when i heard the music😭
All of them look somewhat worse except for Klee and Barbara
Qiqi looks cuter tho
Furina : as I a joke to you!?
Mihoyo : saving poses & money for future characters
Also mihoyo : creates another gacha game
well that's sad 💀
Aakhhh.. the song hits me🥲
The music😢😢
this is really sad tbh. they definitely could've afforded One more artist to do the promo art but they just... stopped
WTF WHY DOEX THE BACKGROUND MUSIC MAKE JT SEEM SOMSS SAD WTFIM HAVIHGNA PANIC ATTACK
You really had to put Da Capo as BGM? Now I have more depression than I already had previously, thank you
Bro, I was just tryin' to check out the art, I wasn't expecting to get gut punched by da capo.
Some of them actually look good with the old pose o.O
Look how they massacred my girl 0:25
Mandela effect goes crazy with this one
Omg the Xiao one
Fking painful
The razor one is literally perfect
Crying from the audio but bursted out laughing at childe just standing in the splash art like: 🧍👆🌊
Da Capo: *plays*
Me: 😢
THEY DID IT SO SUBTLELY THAT I DIDN'T EVEN NOTICE😨😨😨😨😨
Obsessed with this song , literally cry everytime
at one point i'm glad that they decided to stick with one art per character
mostly because i didn't really like those introduction arts compared to splashes
on the other hand...they could just hire an artist with the same skill for those introduction arts and still make them different
They are just saving money after Hu Tao, and that's okay. Also, Hat Guy has an "alternate art".
surprisingly, furina is the first character since hu tao who is in a different pose in the splash art comparing to the card
The fact that i didn’t even question this

i remember when Kaeya's splash art was literally just his 3d model in the splash art lmao, they changed it really quick, it was back in September 2020
Wanderer, Lyney and Furina: I will not wield!
zhonglis hair is the wrong way round on one of them
And his earing... Looks like one of them forgot to flip the canvas lol
At least they can make an "Alternate" For the Archon, but NO!
That's literally the most useless shit ever
Wanderer got the no hat version at least hehe real archon
うわーこんなにも立ち絵変わってたんやな
懐かしい…
I remember these splash arts 😢
I like the song 😢
I'm having a disease called "Mandela Effect"
im surprised most of the 4 stars looked so nice and some even better than original
Barbara and Xiangling don't look bad...
BUT Zhongli and Tartaglia look like innocent bystanders in front of disaster waiting to happen. TvT
Someone please give Nahida an alternate splash art I beg of you hoyoverse 😭😭
WHY.. this song.. kiana.. 😭
I love Fischl s alternative art cause it's a straight up Steins gate reference
i hope they don't change my back pose
What the.... I remember all splash art, but I started playing genshin in 3.6.... O-o
Как же бездушно ставить музыку с финала хонки 3 ,под этот ролик ,я только отошла от того ролика ,а теперь я снова слышу эту мелодию :(((( киана...
I can't believe that's what Razors splash looked like, I prefer the second one
There's also all the travail trailer characters from 3.0 onward, and furina has a different pose too
WHY THIS SONG AAAAAAAAA😭😭

I like the fact that they all looks “natural” (except for Childe 😔)
Barbara, Fischl, Chongyun (did i write it right), Xinyan and Jean ones are amazing
Pretty sure some characters still have unique poses when they are revealed on twitter, just without burst background
That Jean was Perfect!
