I love this quest and Arlecchino because of how morally complicated she is. She's not completely evil, she has genuine care for her children, however she is not a good guy. She kills people, she sends her children out on dangerous missions and metaphorically "kills" them by the memory wipe if they want to leave. Paired with her traumatic past with the previous Knave and Clervie, it's such an interesting look to me about how pain and trauma can lead to more pain and trauma in that cycle, and how it takes effort to break that chain. Arlecchino tries in many ways to break that chain, one link at a time.
For example, in her final character story talks about the House using a code word "Marelle" which is the name of a children's game in Fontaine. Painted boxes are on the ground and the kids are to jump from one to another in sequence. When deciding what the codeword "Marelle" would mean, Arle was first torn between it being "at ease" or "danger" and the children didn't understand why it would be danger, it's just a kid's game. The reason why is that in Peruere's time in the House, the game was used as a test of agility for the children. "In those days, each and every child would leap into the boxes one by one under the vigilant eyes of the adults. Stepping out of the lines or breaking the rhythm was not allowed. There was never a need to ask the punishment for making a bad jump, for the area outside of the boxes was lined with upturned blades. Those who lost their balance, whose stamina failed, or simply made an error out of fear... So, so many fell beyond the bounds, and the dark-red soil mourned that painful past." In the end, Arlecchino decided to have it mean "at ease" so that the painful memories of that game would live and die alone with her, and no child would associate the innocence of that game with the blood and death it caused in her time.
That's why I love her as a character so much. There's so much interesting moral complexity to think about! (and also, you know, she's really hot and I'm really gay for her-)
You really explained how I love about her so much and how she is a great yet a bad person. Perfectly worded😭👏👏👏
I love this, thank you for sharing about her!
I love Childe so much. He's such a "Real One" to instantly realize that we were trying to distract and delay Arlecchino and helped us do it. It also shows how well he knows us to know that we wouldn't stand a chance in Hell of keeping Arlecchino occupied without his help. It also shows how much he implicitly trusts us to not find us later and ask us why he just risked pissing off Arlecchino for us.
Something I didn't notice before. We know from the short that Arlecchino killed Clervie with a sword. In the shot here in the quest, we can see her sword, as well as a polearm, that would presumably be what Clervie was using. And now, in game, Arlecchino uses a polearm.
painnnnnn
well she didn't kill her at all. you can see that clervie was stabbed but only from herself because she didn't want to fight/kill peruere, which is still holding her sword (look in the reflection after clervie falls)
I watched the short before the quest even so I still cried like a newborn. 😭❤
Foltz being a menace to society 🤣
BBQ is her fav dish, probably because of how she ended the previous knave "Mother".
They finally made Paimon's voice not so high-pitched, I love it.
It wasn't said directly, but Lyney described him and his sister surviving on streets and then in house of THAT one guy pretty explicitly. No Freminet in that story, it was pretty clear that Freminet was adopted by siblings.
Heloir might be my favorite NPC in Fountaine so far. Great video, BTW!
Or an Italian household. Guest's mean it's more likely things escalate.
Oh paimon still haven't been used as emergency food yet damn 😂
10:50 almost a perfect spit-take
I don't know if I missed the information but will you try Wuthering Waves in the future?
Lorie said she doesn't have the time/space to add another gacha. It'd be best if we respect her wishes.
crying over genshit has to be a all time low
You need to pick up wuthering waves
nope
@@LorieMegistus i can't blame ya, i can only have 1 "Money-sink" game at a time, for me right now it is Star Rail
@@LorieMegistus based
You need to drop that buggy ass game
Dude, first of all, please respect someone's wishes, she's have no interest to play another gacha game,,
Second thing, that game isn't fully optimized yet, as you know, that game had too much mini update
And the last thing, even WuWa devs is more generous than Genshin, but most of their content is boring, for example, the story, they're too much listening the mainland players, as a results, the story became so boring af
