8:12 The cavalry is one of the biggest mysteries of Mondstadt... how can there be a cavalry if there are no horses!? Do they ride slimes instead? Or maybe wolves? Talking about wolves, where are the wolves that are supposed to exist in Mondstadt? Did they all turn into ghost hounds?? :p
Aster, you forgot the Dandelion Sea. That's one of a "mythical" places mentioned in Monstadt and has a potential for future plot points.
Well, she mentioned dornman port which connects dandelion sea with mondstadt (maybe) and maybe that sea is the closest to the dark sea, which is a different continent, i guess? We're going to get massive lores and points after Fontaine in Natlan I think because vennessa was originally from there. And the connection of fatui with diluc's father, and the secret organisation who hired diluc there's so much content left and how can we forget mare jivari, a domain where benny got lost or something and real Stanley died there it's known as sea of ashes 🧍♂️ they're hiding too much things.
And Mare Jivari too
Also in the anime teaser they clearly use exclusively Mondstadt scenery but there’s some parts where we have no idea what they’re showing us.
@@biazacha It's before Venti blew the mountains away.
@@Nokaid0Some people think Mare Jivari is actually in Natlan, since it is described as a volcanic area, and the only volcanic area we know of is in Natlan
The motif of "Freedom" belongs to Mondstadt, and each nation, unironically, is in need of it. It's why each 5-star Anemo character outside of Mondstadt is pivotal to the plot of each nation (Xiao, Kazuha, Wanderer), and why we started in Mondstadt. Not to mention, each archon we've encountered thus far requires a sense of Freedom as well. The Traveler brings that "wind" with them to each nation, introducing a release from bindings. Cultural bindings, personal expectations, work bindings, grief, family tradition...The Traveler questions these, and if they make life suffer, The Traveler decides to help do away with these things if they're not what someone wants. As an outsider, the Traveler is the only one capable of fully looking at things objectively.
I think Fontaine will be the most difficult nation to bring a sense of Freedom to. Maybe a "Not Guilty" verdict will suffice, haha. But I say all this because I feel Venti's second chapter will come when we truly understand what Freedom has done to Teyvat---in a good or bad way.
omg this is so clever, I've never realized that each nation except Mond, needed some kind of freedom, great observation!
plus i noticed that when nahida was stuck in her conciousness or whatever, traveler specifically used anemo to break the invisible barrier. i just thought it was cool that they used wind specifically
im the 269 like🤪
This is true now that fontaine is out, although no anemo characters in sight, I think "freedom" is mentioned way mush there. Fontaine's fight for freedom of sin, furina's freedom from her role of archon, point is freedom is something somehow yearned for in fontaine which I think makes up for breaking the 5 star pivotal anemo character motifs of fontaine as seen how focalors, and by proxy furina, fought fate themselves for the freedom of her nation
Freedom in being (for Fontaine) having freedom in their end
Though the 'Old Mondstadt' thingy was explained in Venti's story quest already, I would like to see what Decarabian looks like, maybe even be able to go under his tower
I expect it will lead to an area like Enkanomiya.
If there is such an area, it is closer to Khaenriah or Celestia when they'll let us see it.
Honestly either I'm really addicted to uktrakill or really just want a challenge other than the abyss it would be really fucking cool if we fight his soul and shit like decrabian prime
@@Gabrielfromuktrakill actually I did have the thought that under the tower could be another slightly similar permanent mode, like some sorta labyrinth maze thing
@@thecrystalliaguild I feel like the next permanent mode they will do will probably be the mare jivari
With how long its been without Venti's 2nd story quest, I'm very certain it'll have something to do with either celestia or Istaroth. Every other archon already has a 2nd quest that explores more of their and their nation's history.
I'm guessing they're waiting until they properly introduce Istaroth in the archon quests, or at least when we're supposed to get a deeper understanding of her for the quest. They're no strangers to requiring us finishing a character's story before advancing the archon quest.
I think it will be an archon quest like they did with scara
Mondstadt is ngl one of the best 'show not tell' game regions I've ever seen, chilling near places like City of Tears (did i get that right?) like hollow knight and many others. I personally don't know much about game storytelling, I'm more of a literature/movie guy, but Mondstadt gave me the same feels as for example, reading chainsaw man after finishing so many shounen. Chainsaw Man hit differently for me, and even though I've never played much games before genshin, I can very much apply the same to gamers and Mondstadt/Genshin.
but there are also moments where paimon explains everything you already gathered
diluc: knights of favonius, always so inefficient.
kaeya: dude, 80% of us left for expedition. you expect 20% to do 100% of the job efficiently?
Efficient does not only mean fulfilling your job/role - it means doing your work while minimizing time and maximizing impact. It's also the same concept present in "Work Harder, not Smarter".
@@LongDeadArtist what you are talking about is personal/individual efficiency. we're talking organization efficiency, an organization cannot be as efficient when they lost 80% of their worker.
20% workers cannot cover 100% of the jobs no matter their personal efficiency.
Man. I'm just waiting for more Jean lore. She really just feels like a political figurehead for Mondstadt right now; we haven't gotten to explore her since 1.6 and even then that event felt like filler in terms of character development. I love Jean and I want more of her past to be presented in the story in a significant way.
Very interesting indeed.. but to look too much into Jean's character story means to bring up Grandmaster Varka. If they want to hide his story they must leave Jean alone.
@@lkimberly2064 you’re right and now I’m sad
@@lkimberly2064 Or they could just stop being a bitch and bring up Varka so we can finally get more sweet sweet Jean lore. There's no real excuse honestly. >:|
Okay but seriously though, I still think there's a lot of stuff about Jean that's unrelated to Varka that we don't know. Or at least, if all of her interesting lore is just tied to Varka, I'm not sure if it is even that interesting. I want to know more about the Gunnhildrs and how Jean's childhood shaped her ideals. It's aggravating how few Story Quests actually go into that level of detail.
We get informations regarding mondstadt slowly, bits by bits. The ever calm, warm and windy first region is actually a ticking bomb of lore, I'm pretty sure of that. When I finished the mondstadt archon quest back in 1.0 the thought that we may come back here for the grand finale pops up in my head and the idea grows even more now.
Yup. Mondstadt where it all began, and where all will be end. At least something big.
- Venti’s 2nd Story Quest -
In Zhongli’s Story Quest 1 and 2, we learn about the God of Salt, Havria, as well as the Geo Dragon King Azhdaha. Both of these individuals were significantly parts of an older era within Liyue.
In Ei’s Story Quests, she accustoms herself to present day Inazuma, First by walking around, and Secondly by thinking over her ideal of Eternity.
Nahida’s Story Quest, the first one we had encountered a Dream Scheme that Nahida wanted to take care of, since it troubled the people of Sumeru. In the second one, she helped Apep, who was in trouble from the removal of Forbidden Knowledge.
Venti’s one and only Story Quest is about a friend who out of grief takes the identity of their fallen friend, and tries to continue their legacy, this unfortunate situation reminded Venti about his own personal situation. So perhaps his next Quest will be of the same? An unfortunate situation taking place somewhere, that will remind Venti about his own personal situation.
Coming from the 4.0 future, I believe this will definitely be the case, and will happen in Fontaine. Based on Furina’s line that she’ll even judge a god, I believe Venti is the most likely visitor to come to Fontaine and somehow get wrapped up in some trouble that will remind him of an incident like that
@@victor_e_dafeet8218
Furina: VENTI FROM MONDSTADT! You are in court today because I charge you with trespassing into a Divine Beings personal room, at night! And drunkenly asking the Archon of Fontaine to join him in having drinks at the Pub in Fleuve Cendre, while ignoring her screams of terror! I sentence you to death!
Neuvillette: No no no, Lady Furina calm the fu- I mean, calm down. Venti from Mondstadt indeed committed a crime, but not one worthy of the death penalty.
Venti: I ACCEPT your little challenge, you crazy god!
Neuvillette: No no no, I … (deep sigh). Oh Archons.
Furina/Venti: Yes?
Neuvillette: I despise you both so much right now.
@@victor_e_dafeet8218 I saw a video that said that there will be an event in Fontaine and Venti will most likely be there since his banner is also getting a rerun, plus his second story quest might come sooner than we thought
One silly personal theory I have is that Venti's second quest will feature the dandelion sea and kitsunes. After all, we know that kitsunes aren't native to Inazuma; they must have come from somewhere in mainland Teyvat and I think Mondstadt is a good candidate, considering that Venti is known for talking with animals
I would really like Venti's 2nd story quest to be at the Temple of the Dragon, yet another obfuscated Mondstadt location with Lisa saying to Jean "well you know why we can't go there", would be a good oportunity for some lore and random a Dain appearance.
One thing I want to know about Mondstadt is the forbidden door of library. According to Favonius Codex lore, it has been there even before the construction of library and had been intact through the great fire. And you know Enjou said something about burning library...
Venti part 2 probably will have something to do with whatever is submerged under Cider Lake, or maybe that would be Klee's story since she's the one who bombed Stormbearer Mountains, causing the peak to collapse and dam the river, flooding the entire Mondstadt area
Klee's terraforming is probably also why Dornman Port has to be rerouted and hard to access, she is single handedly gatekeeping all the lore and exploration in Mondstadt, can't wait for Klee to reunite with Alice, it will be a giant lore drop.
Ok take this with a massive grain of salt but rumor has it Venti will get a second story quest around 4.3 don’t quite me on this later it could turn out to be false
Would be interesting if he did.. but what would it be about at that point? For the devs/writers to Focus on Venti or Mondstatd in Fontaine or Natlan they would really need to have a compelling focus..
@@lkimberly2064 On the map, every shadowy patch under water has turned out to be ancient ruins related to Khaenriah or Celestia, so it definitely can involve Venti in a whole bunch of ways.
@@GuyWithAnAmazingHat No question as to that, especially after Pilon (?) Peak in Mondstatd and the God of Salt story in Liyue. I mean what lore would they connect it to (whether we know about it or not they can't be inconsistent)..
Ultimately I do think part of Mondstadt's "problem" that part of the function of Mondstadt is "a tutorial island". Lore and story-wise, it is supposed to be "hub" where you get from here to there from it.
- My "hunch" about Mondstadt is that "the final chapter" will take place there: Venti will have the way to get to both Celestia and Khaenri'ah where the key is that it involves a trick of time traveling.
- I suspect we'll get a "Hexenzirkel" Quest involving Klee, Mona, and Albedo. There is no real evidence for this but I think it would be a fun story about how "the kids" have to something their predecessors should have done or failed to do. This allows some character growth and lore exploration!
Ya I always assumed that the kaenrieah chapter will require mondstadt and ventis help
Per the Teyvat Chapter Storyline Preview, the last official Chapter ??? (7?): "The Dream Yet to be Dreamed" is stated to be in Khaenri'ah. The location for the gates to Khaenri'ah are now know. I think a Mondstadt's expansion is more likely as part of Chapter 6: "Everwinter Without Mercy". The area of Mondstadt adjacent to Snezhnaya.
Note, an Epilogue is implied that will take place at "The Sea of Flowers at the End' with the Traveler as the feature character. This could be in Celestia.
I bet after Fontaine we'll be getting that Teahouse in Liyue which has been teased by characters, and hopefully Dornman Port to finally connect Fontaine to the rest of the regions. Pray for Venti 2nd Story quest, it's either gonna be dropping bombshells or still gonna be vague. Depends if it's accessible after Venti Story Quest 1 or if we need to travel the other regions first for more context.
If you're talking about Yanshang Teahouse then I believe it was properly introduced with Yelan's release.
@@Shiva-bi9in They don't mean Yansheng Teahouse. There's meant to be a village on the border between Liyue and Fontaine that is famous for its tea. I forget what it's called.
Qiaoying Village, which is inside Chenyu Vale, should most likely be released next update in version 3.8 as it is the border between Liyue and Fontaine and should house our introduction quest to Fontaine. Like how we had the Inazuma prologue quest with Kazuha and Beidou take place in Guyun Stone Forest in Liyue. I also imagine that Chenyu Vale will serve as our "summer region" instead of the Golden Apple Archipelago as I can't imagine they would release both in the same update and it seems Chenyu Vale seems more likely to release than not.
I believe Mondstadt will get expanded upon much later in the future. My guess is it will happen after Natlan releases and before Snezhnaya. It should serve the same purpose as Chenyu Vale but this time for Snezhnaya instead of Fontaine. Dornman Port will most likely be included in this expansion.
This is all my speculation though. I have not seen any leaks and I don't plan on it.
@@Melotaku Per *spoiler* leaks, the Version 3.8 summer region is in the desert in a place called "Veluriyam Mirage". The limited location map, events, expected characters, skins, and quests are known. Perhaps between Sumeru and Fontain near Version 3.6 OR Natlan to the west.
Chenyu Vale (and Qiaoying Village) could still be release somewhere in 4.X.
@@gensao I literally just said I don't want to know leaks
Mondstadt's irrelevance to the story so far has been very frustrating on top of a character like Varka being seemingly very important but we get almost no information about him.
Then there's stuff like Dragon Spire and the corrupted statue. This drip feed of story has been a huge detriment for Mondstadt as a whole just for being the first region.
Especially the fact that if I had played Genshin Impact around 2020 earlier.... I would've experienced the events in Dragonspine....but because I was pretty busy and unaware of the game at the time..... it is something that people like me need to accept that we missed out on some things.
Well, I don't know what the meaning of "relevant to the story"
But so far, Mondstad is the only region which had the most relevant character and lore to the main story
Like:
1. Hexenzirkle
2. Istaroth
3. Nibelungenlied (the legend of the ring of Nibelung, Nibelung is dragon king, Alberich and Rhine maiden has an important role in that legend, Alberich = Kaeya, Rhine maiden = rhine daughter= rhinedottir, so even the dragon king has more connection to characters around mondstad)
4. Albedo, the one who mentioned in the dainsleif prophecy about the next cataclysm that may happen and his relation with Gold
5. Is it strange that Venti is the only archon who has the lore spread through every region so far?
6. Monstad is the only region which has the most connection to every single main lore such as abyss, Celestia, Rhinedottir, khaenriah, fatui, Hexenzirkle, primordial One and their shade
Other region chara only mind their own business and are rarely relevant to main lore except for Archon
And other archon's lore just spread in their region while Venti's lore spread throughout every nation.
i get it tho it would've been so overwhelming if we gotten so much monstadt lore at the start of the game and i kinda like it this way even tho I'm so fascinated about the rest of Monstadt lore it makes us more excited for when they finally release it
Though that’s what makes Mondstat a great “prologue.” It’s not even its own official act hence the irrelevance, it introduces players to fantasy aspects they’re familiar with to get them into the story as well as being the best place to start. Like imagine not getting our gliders? Or being thrown into a civil war off the bat?
I think its just that getting each nation out, one per year, is amongst the biggest priorities by the devs, and any other treatments (save for obvious ones like Keep Liyue/China Important), is more optional. They will schedule out a varying national emphasis each year, but they can't do everything. Even as the 'Teyvat Chapter' ends in a few years, there may be up to a few years of filling out more things, building up into a potential 2nd main story.
But there may be some relief. I really do think Mondstadt will be the 2nd to 3rd biggest emphasis in the next year (so not counting 5.0 Natlan, but before that). It'll be for relevance order: Fontaine's focus, Mondstadt expansion, Liyue inclusion, Sumeru recency, and not fogetting Inazuma (though I'd love a big expansion of it in 2025). Then Mondstadt content will go sleepy for a while longer until around/just before/after Teyvat Chapter's end. But I think we'll get that big bump: northern Mondstadt, Dornman Port, Venti's Quest/Weekly Boss, world boss(es), etc. My personal hope is a polish pass of Prologue/Mondstadt related content because it does have some bugs/localization issues, and ideally we'd get a grind nerfing of anything old having to do with Mondstadt. They almost never do that lol but I would appreciate it, and it would help new players more easily set up those old characters if they want to play them.
EDIT: I can see addressing Dragonspine more significantly in between the bigger waves. Don't know to what extent, but I don't believe we're totally done with that dead dragon, and it would technically count as Mondstadt content if they did an underground Dragonspine map, or whatever. Still, not as big as other stuff that may come, but could keep us busy in between.
thanks for more mondstadt lore videos, they're literally what I'm the most excited for
4:35 Also unofficially unofficially dubbed, "Susbedo."
I personally want to see Venti's 2nd story quest to be more about his other self as an Anemo Archon in a more detailed manner. I'm tired seeing some players mocking Venti and his nation just because of some shallow info they got
That mission with the stolen inverted statue was what sold me to continue learning this game's lore and keep playing.
.
The spooky build-up from the whole dungeon up to that point when you find the statue was pretty shocking in contrast with the first impression of a fun, colorful fantasy world vibes the game gives.
.
And I'm still waiting for the day we get those answers.
It's typical hoyoverse style. Make it look fun and lighthearted from official art and start it out that way, then go ahead and plunge it into a darker plot point and just keep going deeper and deeper
@@ashleyandanime4815
With so many death flags out there like Lisa, Baizhu, Xiao, Albedo, Kaeya, Tortellini with his delusion and to a lesser extent, Diluc and Zhong li give me death flag vibes too.
I'm actually glad that in all this time (Fontaine about to be released) no playable character has died yet.
(Sorry Signora main, your dream was cut short. Musou no Hitotachi short.)
You forgot to mention “The Gateway to Celestia” written at the base of Venti’s statue. We still don’t know what it means and it’s been haunting me since 1.0 😫 But I’d like to believe the theory that we’ll go back to Mondstadt before we go to Celestia and somehow use the statue for the ascent
With statue Venti holding us in his hands, keeping the wind under our wings as we ascend ✨✨
id like to believe that with venti's second story quest, we'd also get dornman port or maybe even the dandelion sea. its sad to think that ventis second story quest might only come towards the end of the game, firstly considering what a lore drop ventis second quest would be and secondly the port would be a good metaphor for the end of the travellers journey in teyvat, beginning and ending in mondstadt
its rumored that his second story quest will come in 4.3!! meaning the possibility of dornman port :')
@@faybiies that's so exiting!!
Other archons have specific quest, meanwhile venti's lore is all over the teyvat. All the Monstadts' even and festivals were all venti related .
Surprised you didnt mention the cave entrance at the end of the beach. I'm always stumped nobody seems to talk about it. Its ominous, paimon does't let you move forward as if you are leaving the map.
what? Where??
Where lol
Where, Exactly?, only "Cave" I've found on a beach in Mond so far is one you've already been to for Kaeya's (I believe) quest, and Paimon doesn't warn me about that one, it's just blocked by an invisible wall.
Can you explain the location better?
It's used in kaeya story quest
I’m still confused by Teyvat’s geography. The Four Winds don’t line up with how we view the map. Why do Mond, Liyue, and Inazuma use the Northlander billets when Sumeru is geographically more north than Inazuma?
I have a theory about Venti's 2nd story quest that we are going to travel to the past back in old mondstadt. We'd meet spirit venti and also his friend (meaning a venti skin👀). It would explain why venti remembers us in that one voice line while we don't. Knowing mondstadt's connection to the god of time, a quest where we timetravel is not far from possible
Aster, i'm so glad that i clicked fast on the video because i wanted to bring up a topic, in Traveller's voiceline: About Teyvat, they talk for a moment about how they wonder if the stars in Teyvat could ALSO TELL PEOPLES FATES, when i saw that i was like "wait a minute, something's not right" because we usually think that the stars of Teyvat can see the future because the sky is fake and all of that, but with this voiceline, it makes everything more confusing, anyway, i just wanted to spill the tea about this voiceline because it is super sus, there are also other super sus voicelines of Traveller and Paimon like in one of the voicelines Paimon says that she would rather to be the father that creates things than being it's child, i know it may just be a coincindence but at this point we should be at alert for any information, specially when it is about Traveller and Paimon
Monstadt including its archon in my opinion its going to be a huge loredrop for khaenriah and other future things especially for the god of time
I've always assumed Dornman Port will be the last location we get before entering Snezhnaya. It would be a somewhat poetic way to bring the Traveler's journey back to where it began before entering the last nation of Teyvat.
The title card (or whatever it's called) still says "Where's Mondstatd?" The video covers something slightly different, but the where of Mondstatd seems just as important as *what the purpose of Mondstatd in the present is (Is it the City of Freedom because it is like a guard at the gates somehow keeping trouble contained?).
they gave yoimiya a second story quest while leaving venti behind
For me Mondstadt story still feels very rich and complex, it was a lot more comprehensible in comparison to Liyue and Inazuma because of how deep their lore is hidden in some books, places in the open world, in quests that I sometimes didn’t get to do yet & Mond at least got everything very straightforward. Though most likely I experience it this way only because of events always making sure everyone remembers Mond 😅
There's so much of Mondstadt that we haven't seen yet, like Dornman Port, yes, but also... I wanna open the platform on the Nameless Island! I wanna open the gates of the arena of Thousand Winds Temple! I wanna see what's at the bottom of the Decarabian's Tower! and from Stormterror's Lair, I wanna go further North-West, where the path passes through a giant open gate and ends up against a dam/lake.
Aster you forgot the other 2 winds from Mondstadt where we don't know where they are either, we only have
- the Wolf of the North = Andrius
- the Dragon of the East = Davalin
found but still missing
- the Lion of the South
- the Falcon of the West
Falcon is Vanessa shown on the genshin Manhua but the lion maybe at dandelion sea? Not much info bout the lion it self
The falcon is Venessa after ascending to Celestia
The lion is whoever holds the title of the dandelion knight. Currently, it is Jean. Venessa was also the lion at some point since that was her title
The Lion and Falcon is both Venessa title (Jean story Quest) Venessa got the Lion title first when she founded KoF then got the Falcon title after she go to Celestia.
But KoF can also be the Lion since KoF symbol is a Lion
Wolf of the North = Andrius formerly = Knight of Boreas = Varka
Dragon of the East = Dvalin (unknown reason why there is no temple)
Lion of the South = Vennessa formerly = Lionfang Knight/Dandelion Knight = Jean
Falcon of the West = Vennessa ascended = the Knights of Favonius collectively acting on her will
So we had a recent situation of Varka as Grandmaster, Jean as Dandelion Knight, and the Knights being operational. Dvalin was in Stormterror's Lair for many years, seething in toxicity. Vennessa is an unknown, but Mondstadt has faith that she watches over them in Celestia or elsewhere, possibly kept in falcon form.
And currently, we know Varka is on a mysterious expedition, Jean continues in capacity as acting Grandmaster, and the Knights were assisted by the Traveler and a covert Barbados/Venti to soothe Dvalin and help return him to protective duty.
@@mintpudding7908 KoF is the physical presence (figuratively speaking) of the Falcon. But the Lion symbolism can be viewed as their tribute to who she was on the ground as a mortal, just as they are as citizens. Falcon symbols are used to represent the 'divine' winds, but lion symbols for the 'common' protectors. Then seemingly, wolf symbols for the patrol of the wilds, and dragon for the upper skies. KoF are still the Falcon because they're her heightened legacy compared to her singular past, which the Dandelion Knight can personally act as.
Some said that elementals are the oldest beings in teyvat, like apeps little elemental life forms, maybe venti is a part of a bigger being if we compare to the latest nahida elemental lifeforms
I think it would be really funny if Hoyo sticks to the cyclical thing and makes Venti the first and last limited character available before the servers close for good
Now that I know characters outside the archons can get a 2nd story quest, I'm very eager to see what lore Albedo's 2nd story quest could bring us. Aside from that, since we know about Varka's expedition and how he took a lot of the senior knights with him, I'm looking forward to meeting these knights when they return at long last!
There's still the dandelion sea and mare javari. I still wonder how mare javari will be connected to Mondstandt perhaps via natlan? But it would be difficult to tell since I believe fontain is south east of Mondstandt based what we can see in stormterror's lair.
venti is cooking
I feel like if we ever get ventis second story quest it's gonna be about us getting the upside-down statue and placing it where it belongs to open a new area on mondstadt
While I'm not sure about Venti's quest, its.. actually not bad to think that something will trigger us to deal with that statue. And might even just have the one Traveler quest as its main prerequisite.
I would like to go deeper into why Venti NEEDS to take naps for long periods of time, while others don't.
Agree at first I thought it's because he was affected by the abyssal corruption when he fought durin but he was asleep before that too right? The timeline is really clunky since Dain said he saw him 500 years ago but Venti was asleep for a thousand years before he met us so..🤔
@@umiprea My theory is that unlike the others, he doesn´t accept ruling Mondstadt or his divine role, making him the "weakest of the 7", to the point that he needs long periods of sleep to regenerate his power or heal.
Day 325 of *Venti second story quest when?*
my guess is since venti knows 'all the songs from the past, the present, and the future' his story quest would definitely have something to do with it and wont come out for a while
I definitely think that Venti story quest 2 will be about Istaroth and Venti’s connection with them or something about the lion of the west and falcon of the south
The expedition was leaked to take place in sneznyha
Cool video again. Looking forward to the next one.
i am so fascinated with varka and the expedition I'm so excited to learn about it in the future
Fun recap. Also, hurrah! For recharged Aster! We'll need all the chill we can get for hot Summer months.
Given every Archon Quest II so far has corresponded to a weekly boss linked to the Archon's past (Sumeru's Draconic ruler, Ei's former puppet personality, and Zhongli's pet frog) Venti's would surely follow suit
Alas I can't think of any living thing in Venti's elusive past that would potentially fit
It will be hilarious if we have some kind of end battle on the same beach that we started on. In fact, the exact location of some kind of major battle seems to be set-up at the end of the beach already.
here to chill with aster
Any thoughts about the door to khaenriah located underground in the new sumeru region?
Is the Mare Jivari part of Mondstat? It definitely seems quite important to the nation considering the emphasis it’s citizens place on it as the land where the wind doesn’t blow. Definitely want to visit or get more lore on that.
Also I believe Venti’s 2nd story quest will be in Fontaine, as of all the archons he’s the one most likely to travel and visit it, and if Furina is ever gonna judge another Archon, it’s most likely going to be Venti, and the Archon quest will be about a trial involving him and give some insight on some past event
I mean, Mondstadt isn't Chapter 1, it's the prologue, so Memehoyo is either considering it as a tutorial or something coming later.
I was just wondering, has anybody ever theorized about what the island near the starting point of the game is? That island that doesn´t appear on the map whcih holds a single Anemoculus... I like looking at it from Starsnatch Cliff. I refuse to believe it is just a random island for the sole purpose of putting an hard to get Anemoculus
Or maybe it is used afterwards in whatver story/world quest? I haven't progressed much in the game yet.
Isn't that the island of the world quest where we find a tease of Istaroth?
The theories about istaroth/the island have been out basically since the beggining, its kinda old news tbh
Are you talking about the Nameless Island? It's definitely very relevant. There's a whole worldquest about it and hints about how it relates to the god of time. Obviously it's very vague though.
actually i heard a rumour about venti getting his 2nd story quest and mondstadt getting an expansion in 4.3
Unfortunately, no 😢
@@isabellaselhorst9573 lol its almost 4.4 now and no venti story quest. I guess we'll have to wait some more patches
Or in other words Mondstad is very sus and for a reason
Someone once noted that joels father voice actor was a famous person who voiced another veiled villan I believe. Which is one reason why that person thought, indeed, sus albedo was now acting as joels father.
What about Dandelion sea ?
Id would be very cool if ever went under decraibian's tower we would like acess a secret boss room where we fight his remains and when were about to fight him make hin do like a anime ass monologue and then absolutely beat your ass like in a new way instead of making enemies just stupidity beefy (spiral abyss) make his attacks super fast so that youl learn doge him like a dark souls boss but more anime i imagine a name for him will be decaraibian prime
I just want to know where the 4th temple went
on the topic of Venti Story Quest part 2, I would expect a lore drop about the time after Decarabian's fall leading to the initial couple of centuries of New Mondstadt where Istaroth and Venti co-ruled the place. That way we get some potential Dragonspine+Mondstadt nobility lore (because of the climate changes of both Mondstadt and Dragonspine), Istaroth lore, and some further timeline placement explanation.
i think that if we ever get a venti story quest part 2 it's gonna involve the mare jivari
"Where is mondstadt" oh you'll regret asking that when jan 9th 2024 comes😂😂😂
Before anyone asks i am making shit up
Imagine if that turns out to be the real date of the modndstat expansion
I really hope we can get subject 2 as a separate playable character. It certainly has ambitions but I'm not sure if Celestia would recognize it. I guess it does already have cryo powers though so it doesn't really need a vision to be playable
Subject 2 didn't have ice powers. It was the whopperflower
Wouldn't that have been subject 3? Subject 2 was made by the same one as Albedo, just Albedo was a "success" and subject 2 wasn't considered so.
Watch the venti story teaser: The Boy and the Whirlwind again it have some pretty interesting things
I hope Venti Story Quest pt. 2 involves Dvalin, Boreus, and/or some other divine being that we've yet to meet along with some mention of Vanessa or something.
The Wirches thing reminds me about Re:Zero 😢
I want to see horses in Mondstat and the ability to ride animals
When I left Mondstad for a long time all the I could say to the npcs was goodbye…
Man, i remember when the thing with the fake Albedos happened it felt like theud be returning to that plot point of Albedo and dragonspine every winter, because at the time qe foolishly believed that Hoyo was going to not drop plot threads left and right like it turned out they would. Im not just talking about this plot thread but many many not even brought up in this video, this was also around the time tjat Zhongli's second quest came out and while it felt a little odd that he git a sequel before Venti it didnt seem too off if Venti's was coming soon. It felt like things started but not finished would consistently progress even as new areas with their own stories were opened up. But that just stopped happening not long after this point, the archons (except Venti) getting a second story turned out to be a way to get a regions second trounce domain and in Inazuma and Sumeru seems to be more about introducing new worldbuilding than developing the lingering ones like erosion in Liyue's story, and even going back to the golden apple archipelago had nothing to do with the last time we were there and it all just feels like Hoyo is aining for going full steam ahead, never mind what falls off the train and gets left behind from how fast theyre moving
Random but you could hella voice a playable character from Mondstadt
@ChillwithAster I would point ot that Sucrose is character with possible deep lore but is on purpose made to be just said by fans as and that Shy introverted Girl but there is a voiceline that peeks first Suspision in me which is her voiceline about her ears which is "(...) fMy ears are a hereditary feature... quite different from everyone else's. So, I try to hide them with my hair as much as possible." but if you think it isn't enough of point of her being actually important to the unkown lore then Look at Keaya's and Jean's voicelines about her as well as her Constellation where I noticed in place where it would be something like corks but the thing is istead of corks there is a Star just like Star in Kaeya's eyes or Albedo's neck isn't it strange perhaps?
i actually forgot about the 2nd albedo making a 3rd albedo
Its Albedos all the way down
Im also wondering if we're going to end up with some case of circular storytelling where we end where we began and thus some lore is unfortunately not going to be revealed until the very very end of the story
They also hinted at more of Mondstadt's strange story in the manga with the question of the presence of Ursa the Drake, and also why a group of Natlanders found themselves here. Nice summary of the many unfinished stories of Mondstadt.
Venti's story quest 2 would either be before snezhnaya and abt his previous friendship with the Tsaritsa
Or
Close to the end game and it's abt Celestia or smth
8:00
I only just realised this, but Godwin was meant 2 b on Varka's expedition!! (P.S I've - sadly - been playing less then a year, so if this has already been stated somewhere and I just kissed it or wasn;t playing yet, my apologies)
Aster's new favourite orchestral piece has been Canon in D lately.
I seems like Venti's story quest act 2 will show the port dorman
I would also like to tell you that in sumeru if you do, nahida 2nd story quest there’s a certain cave that leads to khanrieh and when you get too close to it you’re teleported to Springville I feel that monstad has a deeper connection to celestia and khanrieah than we think
HI CAN YOU PLEASE ELABORATE????
Maybe venti part 2 could deal with uhhh, exploring more about the northern monstadt area, maybe someone is questioning why have a God of freedom if they aren't going to govern them? Or something, need to do genshin lore study
I wish they had horses in Monstadt. It's weird having the word "Cavalry" without the horses.
We still need to see what's Decarabian looks like
with all of Mondstadt's mysteries taking more place, i'm expexting to see a whole new big update, something like "Mondstadt v.2" to be released one day.
In the Genshin trailer, every nation is given a number (Mondstadt : Prologue, Litie : Chapter I, Inazuma Chapter II, etc. etc.) but not Khaenri"ah, without a number. I wouldn't be surprised now to the Traveler coming back at Mondstadt before getting to Khaenri'ah, since it's the nation we started with, with an update that could double the current size (i always imagined Dornman Port at Musk Reef's east for example). So we could see the port, the dandelio sea, frontiers with Shneznaya, etc.
And this big Mondstadt update would bring Venti Story Quest Part II (i would hate if it'd this long, pls i need it so badly)
And my theory about this quest, is that since every Part II is about a great danger, a menace from the past or from the archon choices and decisions, i'm expecting seeing Decarabian's "return".
We know that Venti is not a "strong" Archon, and that he used Andrius' power at his death to reshape Mondstadt. But we never knew what happened to Decarabian's power after his death. Every god, even minor, causes catastrophe during their death. And I always imagined that Barbatos, never wanting to use the strenght of the tyrant, sealed it somewhere, but during his Part II, somehow it cannot be contained anymore
a lot of flaws perhaps, but i can't stop thinking about what could it be. Every Archon's Part II has a weekly boss, but if Venti has this too, then Mondstadt would have 3 weekly bosses, so if that's the case, that's why i'm expecting it to appear during endgame, when all nations can be updated. I thought about Albedo going mad and becoming the menace he's scared to be, somehow Durin reviving, another Fatui Harbinger, etc etc
honestly, i'm very much confused, but theorycrafting is so much fun sometimes
My guess we get the upside down statue and Dorman port at the same time. Whenever that is.
I’m so confused because of the “Tevyat chapter storyline preview” . Unless we’re going back to Mondstat at the vary end, it’s not mentioned in the archon chapters besides Act: Prologue
I have a lot of hopes for Dornman port actually...
Venti's 2nd storyquest, Rosaria's hangout, possible Eula's development and more Lawrence lore (please not with Amber's presence Hoyoverse)...
I hope I won't get dissapointed...
i just realized this video was posted 4 minutes ago-
So, here's something kinda odd that I haven't seen people talk about. Even though we've maxed out all of the Statues of the Seven in Mondstadt, we still have one left over anemonculus. Wonder what that's all about . . . ?
all oculi have one extra for collectible purposes
my fear is that if you pay attention to the teaser "we will be reunited" Lumine walks through a place that is not yet in the game and in the background you can see giant mountains with snow so it may be that the port will only be released when Snezhnaya is released
Im betting venti quest part 2 would just be a serious question and less about venti and more about everything he once was a part of/related to
it's also strange that we never meet vanessa in mondstadt, even tho we know she is watching over mondstadt and sometimes meet venti.
Can we talk about the conveniently missing chair at the Hexenzirkel table?
Probably died
Didn't one leave (to marry)? But that does bring it up.. Wouldn't they still consider the one who left if they were still alive a friend even if not exclusively of their circle?
@@lkimberly2064 Exactly. Alice and the girl from the quest (can’t remember her name, but she’s an NPC) both said that members have died yet there chair remains. I really want to know what caused them to remove that specific members chair completely?
Do you think that monstadt will be lifted into the skies one day? Just the main area. It's surrounded by water and venti could use his archon powers to make it float
I just hope that in future they will stray from the generic medical fantasy city that is Mondstadt and make it, well, better. I was kind of jealous during the inazuma youkai event, I want a Wasserman under mondstadt drowning kids like right now 😅 but with Mondstadt being so connected to all the enkanomiya and istaroth lore i doubt it
They should make past event doable for people that didn't did them or new players. It's so much lore droping sometimes.
Haven't you made a video like this before? This topic seems very familiar.
It’s literally 2am
Where you at? China?
