Granny Ruoxin’s story always makes me cry. ( If you haven’t talked to her.) She was a famous actress in her youth who had planned to settle in Mt Qingce with her lover. But he went out to sea promising he would come back, but never returned. Even now she still waits for him and it breaks my heart for some reason. I guess because she believes he may have moved on with someone else. So now I’m on a quest to NOT only find my brother, but to find her lost lover too. The quest isn’t a legit one, but it moved me so much that I’m doing it lol Locked her little keep safe artifact too, so I can shove it in his face when I find him... ya know if he’s not passed on.
He might really have died, even if he didn't there's a chance he might have hit his head during a strong storm or something, causing amnesia. This is just a thought
One of the many places that I took a big chunk of my time in genshin to basically just chill and take a few screenshots. This village exactly describes my dream place of living. So beautiful
I remember having to climb up the highest peak in qingce for the ruins quest and god it was dark and stormy during the climb, but as I reach the peak, dawn crept up over the horizon and the sky cleared and I get a eyeful of the beautiful expanses of liyue.
I'm trying to do the quest and I can't find the anything at the "highest peak". Perhaps it might be located somewhere else but that's literally the highest peak I've seen near Qingce Village
@@misscaramel9131 you need to interact with the statues for the quest item along with a luxurious chest, and wdym "can't find anything" there's literally a geoculus there at the very top of the tree
idk if its just me, but every time i go to qingce village, i get all emotional-- whenever i see the children and the elderly people, just having their peaceful lives, i shed a lot of tears-- not to mention this heartwarming music playing.
This ost is sad and nostalgia for a good reason. People in Qingce village are mostly elderly people and children, while young adults work at Liyue Harbour. Those people in Qingce were left behind。If we compare this ost with the one from Liyue harbour, that one sounds much happier than this one.
That's pretty common in china. Young adults move the cities to work and send money to their parents. And at new year everyone return home to celebrated.
The way I like to look at it is that the calm tone of the village's themes also reflect how the villagers are happy with just the simple things, and how the elderly have come into terms with the life they've lead as the twilight of their lives happen.
@@20wonsavage55 woah dude that was literally exactly what I was like for 90% of my game since I had gotten chongyun noelle and beidou in my first 10 pull on beginners banner and they have stayed on my team ever since!
Story time no one asked for but I'm sharing in hopes that one day "he" sees this. I matched with a guy on a dating app. We hit it off pretty good. We had so much in common, and talking to him for almost 3 months made me think how he's basically me in the opposite sex. He's the one who made me play this game, and I'm so thankful for that fact coz this game is really awesome, not to mention the great soundtracks. Our first "meeting" was in Qingce Village. I was an ar16 newbie and he's ar56. We just strolled around Qingce Village looking for treasure chests. I can't really explain it well but it felt surreal, the good kind of surreal. We parted ways now, but whenever I'm in Qingce to collect glaze lilies, I always think of that time. This ost now occupies a very special place in my heart. I miss you Magnolia.
I- Bro I went through almost the exact same thing...Me and my ex met first in Qingce too! We had tons of fun there, she was the one who got me into genshin too...But yeah, she did ghost me and blocked me after a few months for some reason, so the bittersweet music of Qingce just sums the experience well...Without her I wouldn't have discovered this amazing game, but now whenever I lurk around in Qingce it just comes back to me and the music makes me cry...I guess life just goes on.
Can someone tell me why Quingce’s music is so emotional yet happy? Is it the chords/notes it’s being played in? The composition? The arrangements?? I’m legit crying over here.
It's the story about the old village elder, who waited for her lover all her life but never came back. The chord progression is actually quite common in anime using much 4th minor to create that contrasting happy-sad tone. It's a nice mixture of modern/western chord progression and oriental/Chinese pentatonic melodies. (Pentatonic meaning avoiding using the 4th and 7th note in a scale in the melodies. Doing that makes that signature "oriental" sound).
That's not a question that can be answered in just a youtube comment; every aspect of the music, from the texture, orchestration, melody, harmonic choices, etc. play a part. The answer to your question would be yes to everything; yes to the chords, the notes, the harmony, everything.
One noteworthy little thing someone pointed out in another upload of the Evening rendition of this song, the entire theme of the Village is "A Bittersweet Paradise", which I think sums up the villagers very well.
I still remember the first time I saw Qingce Village last year after climbing a huge mountain and thought it was so beautiful. The different colors of the fields, the sunset, and the music just tied the whole thing together.
Well i remember too, i was so amazed by the view and i stayed in Qingce village for like an hour just to listen the music and looking at the beautiful view
I was walking up the bamboo forest for the first time up reaching to this village and this music plays. Then I see the beautiful fields with the dawn light shining through it is too beautiful.
I swear I came over the mountain with venti when I first started exploring Liyue, saw the view of the entire village with this music playing, and that’s the moment I knew this game had me hooked for the next 5,6,7+ years
You can say that it's just a village full of elderly. But the OST can make me visit it continuously while looking at the waterfall and ricefield. It's so calm and beautiful.....
To my taste this is mt favorite st of the game. The simple melody line and the armonizing is awesome. The orchestral voicing and arrangement is beautiful too
@@raaaaqj4uh I didn't get to pull his banner and got him too😭 a lot of people said he isn't that useful but still for me wind is the strongest cause they can combine multiple elements. And yeah before I commented this I didn't kno he was a god so, protecc the god at all costs🥺🥺
@@Lucien5103 yeah yeah he's a support, an OP one!! some people misunderstood him as a power dps (he can be dps tho) and turned out didn't quite fit their expectations ended up abandoning and calling him useless while his skills are area, wide and OP, very helpful in spiral abyss😔😔
I dont usually play with sounds but when i got into qingce i have my earphones on and i was talking to the old lady talking about her lover that and the promise then this music part 3:14 came on i got a little bit emotional lmao. Im prob gonna put earphones on always when im playing.
You could hear the countryside of the Chinese region. It's peaceful, but slightly on the solidarity. Simple and unexciting. A breathtaking walk from the side type of music. It also has a slight hint of natsume yuujinchou soundtrack as well as miyazaki's films. :P All in all, for a free to play game, this is absolutely stunning.
This is the first time ever in my life that I enjoy listening to Chinese music Although I was born as an Asian that learn some Chinese culture, I'm not a fan of Chinese music Some how this one got me, also the battle theme and the dock fight. Those musics are awesome
This is not specifically chinese music, its more of a neoclassical orchestral piece with chinese influence. I think the chinese music you tend to not enjoy is more of the mainstream chinese music.
Same, I'm an Asian and i know quite a bit of chinese culture but im usually not a fan of a lot of chinese music, however songs in this game are quite an exception
I was very sad about the sunchildren quest in Enkanomiya and the very first place I could think of before leaving the game for the day was Qingce Village. This place is exact opposite of Enkanomiya. Sunny, full of life, with children being themselves and not being dragged by any plots of power and manipulation. Even now, 4 years since this area was released, I come and sit to contemplate the landscapes, specially after sad quests. To me, this is home, where you visit your most favorite family member so they pamper you with treats and love.
Same, I would live there if I could and I hope it would have the same feeling it gives me as this video, as well as what it was like when I chanced upon Qingce Village and stayed there for hours.
I'll probably have marked about 50 places to go and take photos. This game has such an amazing ambient ost, and worldbuilding. I could compare it to Irithyll, because they're both gorgeous and fabulous.
First time i heard this song is where i was at the top of the highest house in the village and it was sunrise, then the music kicks in, it was perfect and breathtaking.
![[ Frieren: Beyond Journey's End ] OST with 4K background](/img/n.gif)

She was a famous actress in her youth who had planned to settle in Mt Qingce with her lover. But he went out to sea promising he would come back, but never returned. Even now she still waits for him and it breaks my heart for some reason.

It’s was ambers grandpa tho we don’t know where he is now
Grandma Ruoxin has accepted this aspect of her life and she has moved on. I hope you have seen what she really says afterwards.
Wait, mabye he was among those people that got stranded on the Goldenapple islands? :/
I’m sure you’ve all played through the first Inazuma Archon Questline by now. That story sounds an awful lot like the guy in Konda Village’s
I'm feeling a strong sense of nostalgia for a life that I've never lived...
you're gonna make me cry...
maybe you lived a past life and are seeing gimpses of it. 😂 But ngl, it would be nice if it were true
I think there's a word for that; an obscure sorrow called Anemoia, which is described as nostalgia for a time you've never known
music is truly something hah
You probably lived in a beautiful village in China from your past life..❤❤
The best OST in this world. Is so peaceful.
Agreed. :)
Mt hula?
This is one of my favorite places on the entire map.
One of the many places that I took a big chunk of my time in genshin to basically just chill and take a few screenshots. This village exactly describes my dream place of living. So beautiful
The ingame photosystem is a blessing. I have like 80 pictures of ingame shots in my gallery haha
The best thing is that you can live there

Woah that’s such a good detail. And I agree with you.

Exactly this! I completely remember how amazed I am when I first explored it. Hands down one of the best experience in my gaming
First time I hear this theme in game I didnt really pay attention to it until 0:56 hit. Goosebumps all over my body!!!
I was walking up the bamboo forest for the first time up reaching to this village and this music plays. Then I see the beautiful fields with the dawn light shining through it is too beautiful.

No wonder Papa Toes was absent from Mondstadt, he's vibing in Liyue.
"Peaceful hike" is just my personal favorite such a masterpiece
Currently still my favorite, I love playing this music when I'm chillin
You can say that it's just a village full of elderly. But the OST can make me visit it continuously while looking at the waterfall and ricefield. It's so calm and beautiful.....
when you tired to farming mats and exp,
go to this village and relaxing with this music
To my taste this is mt favorite st of the game. The simple melody line and the armonizing is awesome. The orchestral voicing and arrangement is beautiful too
I love using xingqiu and chongyun travel along qingce village, it is just soooooo relaxing. To escape this world just for a while.
This makes me want to go to the countryside of China and eat some good food and watch the beautiful scenery ahead of me.
this giving me ghibli vibe soo calm powerful and happines
when the other regions are open, i know, i will still comeback here
Idk why whenever I see venti my hearts about to burst and cry. Especialy when he plays music :'( that kids too precious
I miss venti, I wanna see him again in the story...... ( And yeah I didn't get to pull him either, but it wouldn't have been the same anyway )

Is so beautiful...
"Osmanthus wine tastes the same as I remember... But where are those who share the memory?"
I was very sad about the sunchildren quest in Enkanomiya and the very first place I could think of before leaving the game for the day was Qingce Village.

No wonder this ost is so nostalgia for me, cuz my grandparents back that time when they still alive they also listen to this kind of song too :')
I love this theme while play Genshin because it can give me such a calm feel
This music alone makes this my favourite area in the game so far
When 2:52 hits >>>>
YESSS
like it was the best part ever riteee :)
gives me the chills everytime
Quince Village is so pretty I spent many hours just cutting bamboos here
Qingce is the Best place in Genshin, period
It has a slight mixture of the amazing The Last Ninja! Wastelands Loader theme kinda vibe....Which made it even more amazing and nostalgic...

a breath of fresh air fr
First time i heard this song is where i was at the top of the highest house in the village and it was sunrise, then the music kicks in, it was perfect and breathtaking.

I came here because of certain video about what happen in version 1.0 feels nostalgic man.
4:01 the chills man
I always travelling to Qingce when I need to rearrange artifacts and upgrade weapon a lot
Definitely one of the best music in this game...I use the character just to walking around in the flower field while enjoying the view of the village
QIngce and Qingyun has the best ost. It feels like it came from a shounen anime.
do you mean Shoujo anime? (Shounen is action-adventure type like Naruto)
@@neverletmego6414 exactly a shounen anime. Genshin Impact is really similar to Naruto ya know

still think this is the best soundtrack of the game 🥺
Peaceful comment and peaceful ost
Perfectly balance all should be
