    Okay a real comment
    16:13 - i was not prepared for this and spat out my water. Thanks
    29:10 - The Xilonen/Capitano shippers are overjoyed rn. (I prefer Capitano/Mauvika myself :P )
    55:02 - I KNEW IT AS SOON AS SHE SAID IT
    1:03:57 - I bawled like a baby during this scene. (Hit way to close to home)
    1:05:09 - Fun fact you can talk to the NPCs in this area and find out who you saved or didn't save. And even... see Chuychu's body. (i missed all this on my through.)
    FOR NATLAN!!!
    1:14:29 - They did such a good job of getting all the emotions you need for Act 4. First you go out battling, determined to help; It looks bad, but everyone has a little hope. Then everything turns for the worst; people are dying, and the monsters are endless, and you're forced to ride the air balloon seeing how much devastation there is + Paimon saying she can't handle much more. But then all the heroes gather, and the music swells and everyone is working together; the hope is back and YOU'RE PUMPED TO DESTROY THE ABYSS. AND MAVUIKA THEN ONE PUNCHES THE FREAKING SKY
    Another fun fact: You can still see the moon fragments in the Sky after the Archon quest. Sometimes they're behind clouds, but they are there (for best visibility, using Charlotte's camera is recommend, but you don't NEED her.)
    Awesome video. It's so awesome to see you evolve over the last year. Watching you go from barely being able to take on a Ruin Guard, to holding your own while waves of enemies come at you. Amazing growth.
    Thank you for the video, as always.

      This archon quest has really blown me away with the writing, music, just everything about it! I am loving all of the reveals as well like The Captain being from Khaenri'ah 😨 It just has been great lol
      I have never felt like we might actually fail like I have during the hot air balloon part! You explained it perfectly with that whole rollercoaster ride of emotions. It just shows how great HoYo is doing right now with the writing, I feel like they are on another level with Natlan that is for sure.
      I am really happy that you liked the video and thank you for that! I have to do right by Navia and keep her alive It is really great to see my progression and the damage that I am dishing out, super cool! Thank you again Suppi!

    This quest really broke my heart after seeing all those NPC / Fatui / Saurians that died. I had to stop playing for a few minutes to cry especially after I saved that one baby Saurian that survived. And then there's Paimon's voice (I was using JP dub), her cracked voice also affected me.
    This quest was so good, it really made me think about what's currently happening in real life in other countries. It made me so sad. I really wish we could also stop the war in real life.

    Literally the best archon quest, the meaning of absolute cinema has never been clearer. And keep in mind this is only act 4 out of 5 (if not 6) like I cannot imagine how INSANE is Natlan finale going to be.
    And then Snezhnaya is going to somehow top Natlan next year.

      I wonder why the devs didn't make him Cryo like Citlali, then we would have gotten all 7 elements in the Hero roster. When was the last time we got a Cryo bow user too? *looks* Oh wow, not since Aloy (she came out when the game came to the PS4). The other 2 are Ganyu and Diona. Hmmm, here's hoping Citali's a bow user, but we'll see since it's unlikely. We never do see her fight.

    • @Zodia195
      @Zodia195 Місяць тому +2

      I must have seen TOO many death scenes to figure out she was going to die. Just by her words I could tell, "Oh no, she's spilling her true feelings, I know where this is going." It is a common trope sadly IF an important char is going to die. Land Before Time, Animated Transformers Movie (80s), Forrest Gump, Titanic, The Princess and the Frog, Flight of Dragons, etc. And these are just movies.

I did say it a few times that didn’t make it into the video. I just said something along the lines of, this is the first time where I felt like we will lose especially seeing the amount of casualties there are. It was so wild seeing the bodies from the battles, that’s something we really haven’t seen in Genshin and it really hit hard that is for sure.

  • @Jaker788
    @Jaker788 Місяць тому +5

    So it looks like the order you do the missions after that cutscene changes some mission outcomes. I did the mission at the top of the map first and I defeated the monsters, there was a mom and daughter hiding under the wooden platform. The Fatui protected them till I got there but didn't survive past the battle. Then I went to the bottom one that you did first, defeated possessed saurians and everyone was dead.
    In your case, those 3 people and some of their saurians were alive for the bottom mission. But the other mission there were no survivors. It flipped outcomes.

    @1:10- With this you need to do the Story Quests and World Quests that are in this area. Just wanted to point that out.
    Paimon breaking down and the dead Saurians were the moments that almost got me. I knew when the teasers started showing, that this was all a 'cover' because it wasn't 'war-torn' like I thought. I was waiting for the real war to show up and yeah it showed up all right. I think because I've seen too many sad scenes like this in other games and forms of media (literature, tv, movies, anime, and even web stuff), I managed not to cry, but this was the closest I've come to crying.
    @1:01:54- KB buddy, she's always had an ancient name, remember lol? She wouldn't have been in the Nightwarden Wars otherwise. But yeah I was watching for this reveal. Remember in Act 2 when we saw we needed a hero from the Flower Feather Tribe, well, since Chasca was the only playable char we knew from that tribe (so far), it was clear to me she was going to be the hero. I just didn't expect it to happen at such a high price. Oh, KB, I've seen videos on how someone gets a vision and one thing Anemo chars tend to have in common is they've lost someone dear to them. Venti, Kazuha, Wanderer, Xiao, Xianyun, they've all have lost someone. And now sadly we can add Chasca.
    @1:06:44- Reminder before Natlan's quest began, 3 heroes had been established- Iansan, Kinich, and Xilonen. None of them knew who the other 3 heroes would be though, unlike Mavuika, so that's why Iansan was surprised when Mulani became one since she wasn't aware.
    @1:08:53- There's the title of this Act lol. I always wondered what "Rainbow Destined to Burn" meant, and after the things we learned, when I saw this scene, I finally got it lol. Also, this is going to be up there with my fav cutscenes of the game. I LOVE "turnaround moments" when things seem so dark, but then everything flips and you feel like nothing can slow you down! Hehe.
    *Sees where the video ends* Oh man . . . you stopped and you're close to the end lol. Anyway, thanks for taking my suggestion to do all optional stuff in the 'story mode', which was the war itself. Also friendly reminder since you're not there yet, but remember you can asked questions to a specific someone BEFORE the title shows up. You can probably figure out who it will be too by this point.
    Oh, don't forget that Nahida's birthday celebration has started. I take it you want to wait for the full story to be open before you start right? The last part will be up on Sunday and you have about 2 weeks to complete this time event.

    Wow Mr KB, you were very uncharacteristically mean on this quest, wanting to battle everything, not caring about helping, wanting to leave people behind
    "Chuychu died, good riddance, am right or am I right fellas"
    Was kinda mean
    When you passed through the main Scions of the Canopy tribe did it at least hurt seeing everyone dead and Abby's monsters everywhere? 😥
    Well... In any case
    The part where the ode activates and people stopped dying was pretty cool
    I just wished they would also give the ability to our characters so they couldn't fit and where immediately revived after dying
    Also, make sure you do, Mualani's and Xilonen's tribe Chronicles
    And also the world mission for your Saurian friend
    They all fill up a slot on your tablet thingy, I wonder if filling them will give us our constellations after we get the Pyro ability
    And I think I agree
    I think ultimately Mavuika wants us to inherit her pyro archon status and the Gnosis
    Maybe we'll even have to fight the Captain for that
    Because if we get the Pyro gnosis, we'll be able to get to Snezhnaya with the support of 3 Harbingers and a bargaining chip, aside from immediate right of audience with the Tsaritsa
    It's probably the best outcome for the traveler

      @@AyatosBobas Yeah, that's the price of being a Vision Bearer NPC. If they're a generic NPC with a Vision, they never use their Vision in combat and are basically just the regular enemy type with a fancy accessory. If they're a playable non-playable character, they don't get any combat ally AI since them joining the fight would just be you using them as a trial character.
      Chasca sits right in the middle of the two, so she's in an awkward position. Can't give a trial version since she's not playable yet, but they can't give generic NPC animations to her either since those animations for specific enemy models and she's a playable character model (not to mention there aren't any generic enemies that use a proper bow). Pretty telling when in the 4 years the game has been around, the only time we see playable characters have combat AI is when they're bosses and those version have a different moveset to ours.
