nails will be a big nothing because hoyo couldnt afford to voice all the characters from all the regions
My fear is that they backstab Ronova even harder in the new archon quest, out of all the chast she doesn't deserve all the shade (get it) she's been getting.
Hopefully we will finally enter the good part of this AQ.

Calling them "nails of retribution" annoys me since the lore clearly tells you that the nails purpose is to stop abyssal corruption or similar mistakes commited by civilisations that tried to end the world. Such as EtirThey're not send as punishment they're send as a last resort
>>750195628don't they also have the power to terraform the land?
>>750195706yes but indirectly. The reason the chasm, the fog on that inazuma island, the sandstom, the night kingdom and the cold on dragonspine exist is because of the nails. But all the nails were send after the war of funerary flame which means teyvats terraforming project already happened by then

>>750196765he was in the trailer
>>750195556>>750196765is she there because the geo archon is still pretending to be dead just so he can act from the shadows?
Verdict: filler patch
>>750197080she's basically liyue's president
>>750194327Meh, seeing Archon gathering doesn't really excite me.

Ronova isn't dead, she now serves her new master (abyssal Lumine). Lumine's true goal was to collect a sex harem of hot ladies all along.

Ok but Teyvat is still upside down.
I caved to FOMO when 7.1 dropped. I haven't played since Inazuma. Have managed to bee-line through all the Archon quests over the last month, starting Chp 7 act 3 now, got 11 days left to finish up, should make it in time to get my free 5 star. Kinna mad I skipped the Fontaine summer event and missed out on Marionette's story. Atleast its a permanent event so I can go back later.

The story jumped the shark with 7.1 I seriously can't care the story anymore, and it was the only reason I was still sticking with the game
>>750203117>care thecare for the
>>750203117but the story is more interesting than ever right now
>>750201193not making cryo Archon a loli was their gravest mistake
>>750203415lolies can't be mothers
>>750203405aspects and concepts are yes, but the story can still be sloppily written regardless of that it has taken on a greater scale but they still can't write for shit
>>750195330Funny how she says this after fucking up the entire world because she threw a tantrum.And the Traveler happily helped her out even after all the evil shit she enabled
Apologize to the Almighty Narukami Ogosho God of Thunder right fucking now.
>>750195323So we have the Cryo Sovereign now.But what happened to the Electro Sovereign?
>>750204030No thank you, Tsarista is a hypocrite but she didn't wage a literal genocidal war against her own people (yet).
catching up right nowwe Doomsday now lmao
>>750204104turned to ash by raidenbot and no one has any recollection of it
>Door is the 4-stargod damn it Danica, muh fucking primos
>>750201193Tsaritsa is hot, but Mavu is the cutest
>>750204602>Ronova saves your nation from doom>Mavuika: Shieet bruh I never liked her anyway she tired to kill me dawg. That ain't fair (although I already died for my 500 year plan and my revival for that plan was only possible through Ronova) but shieet bruh you go get her ass
>>750204201what's hypocritical about the tsaritsa
>>750204572could've told you that since before 7.0 was even released
>>750204658don't care, she cute
>>750203592that's where you're wrong lad
>>750204698should've mentioned she gives us a new fockin gun as well!
BROOOOO REALLY THINKS FURINA IS IN THE TEAM LMEOW
>>750201193Nahida mogs all the other Archons ngl
>>750204201Neither did Ei. She made a law and a handful people (invited by eternally buttblasted Kokomi) who didn't want to give up their trinkets chose to go and kill themselves by using Delusions and storming the capital.On the other hand, Anastasya's law caused thousands of people freeze and starve to death and they couldn't do a thing about it
>>750204664She hates the way the HP rules by casually discarding smaller parts to save the whole, but she does the exact same thing. It's baffling that the story is treating them differently when the only thing differentiating Tsarista and the HP is their level of power.

Who are the best free characters to pick?I have>No Childe, C1 Nilou, no Baizhu, C1 Chiori, C0 Clorinde, C0 Varesa>C6 Jean, C3 Diluc, C3 Qiqi, C4 Mona, C1 Keqing, C2 Tighnari, C1 Dehya, C2 Mizuki
"You didn't win."
>>750207483The flower in Ronova's eyes has 7 pedalds, that's an important detail
>>750207395C2 Nilou is still decent if you have a bloom team. Then for standards basically Mizuki or Qiqi are the only current relevant ones.
>>750207483It will turn out that destroying the nails will free the Archons from Celestia's influence and Ronova will be hailed as best girl
>>750207395c2 nilou if you have nefer's teamc1 varesa = c2 clorinde (since you get a free con from that other thing)standard doesn't matter, get who you likeor build cons for current meta characters which are mizuki and qiqi
>>750207395Go for free C2 Nilou. Varesa reruns in 7.2.Jean to get a Masterless Stella Fortuna. Qiqi and Mizuki for Stellar Reactions.
>>750203592Youngest ever mother was five years old.
>>750209836and that's a problem
Archons are weak, how can you still be hyped?Surtalogi thought Teyvat was offering 0 challenge for him, went universe travelling for challenges.
Ronovafags... how do we cope with our dindu trying to destroy the world...
>>750202397That's my girl Kiana. And here I thought they stopped doing expys.
>hopes?Skip button
>>750205132HP wants to do that forever though, he wants to keep humanity forever nerfed. She was just wrecking havoc for a while until humanity can be free again. You're pretending to be retarded again
>>750210585In 6 months they will just pretend nothing bad ever happened, just like they ignored all crimes of the fatui.
>>750197080Basically yesJohnLee is "dealing" with the nail Itto smashed like a chimp
>>750203117Just be honest and cry about your waifu instead trying to poison the well. Ronovafags are the worst so far, Signorafags weren't pushing narratives about how genshin has fallen because their waifu was killed
>>750210776And then all the people crying about "bad writing" today will suddenly be happy with the retcons lmao
>>750210852How convenient of you not mentioning the literal Capitano homos who seethe all day that the game has too many females. You are fooling nobody.
>>750197080Matters of the world should be dealt with by people who live in the world. Impressive move, imo.
MY FUARKING HEROES
Why the fuck is everyone an electro unit in the cryo fucking nation
So when will the traveler finally realize that Celestia is his ship's AI and just turns it off?
>>750212675Because there's next to no drivers for the gimmick it needs. There's Yae Miko and that's it. Mitya is supposedly a main DPS, as far as I can tell from his kit Door is garbage, so that leaves Danica to do anything.
>>750215518Mitya is like Durin aka he has 2 modes, one main DPS and one sub DPS
>>750212368who invited blud
So Mitya doesn't interest me much, so that's a skip. Who's he running alongside?
>>750217425the ARCHON above you
ugh, time to get into the whole echo shit, I guess...
>>750217460...Well I already have her at C2, so I guess I won't be rolling.
>>750217602oh wow finally an trail for a unit i didn't skipare they gonna make us kill a whole fucking boss solo with her?
>>750196692thx
we in there
>>750218206The Hyperborea shit is weird, we already saw pieces of it and it seems like it's almost literally Enkanomiya 2.
>>750218206Hyperborean anon bros... we made it...
>>750219334a big fucking crater?
>>750219661We saw bits and pieces during the Nod-Krai quest, literally flew over it.
>>750218206More like hyperboring lmaoooooo
>>750203117For me it was around Nod-Krai, the whole thing felt half assed and the return to Sumeru really cemented that the story isnt going to get any better and the devs dont care about the lore. I can't believe I stuck with the story for 6 years only for the devs to completely retcon and fuck over everything. plus the new characters seem bland and uninteresting, the only design I like is the Tsaritza because she's hot as fuck.
>>750220105>only for the devs to completely retcon and fuck over everything?
>>750220587it's just your usual schizo that skips through everything for the slot machine rewards then complains how things don't make sense
>>750220587>>750220786Pretending like the latest events didn't ignore major past events from the past years just to garge fat xiao's balls doesn't make you look cool.

DEATH SEXOOO
>>750220960Such as?
>>750221770Characters are in eternal stasis. No matter how much time passes, no one ages. It's like the seasons change, holidays come and go, half a decade has passed, yet you're perpetually half a year away from graduation.Timmie's been feeding the same birds for like seven years, never growing older.
>>750223663They'd have to add impregnation and birth mechanic if that weren't the case. Otherwise how would you have a constant supply of lolis for the game.
>>750222739>Traveler: Hmmm, this ruler of a country who kept allowing her underlings to wreck havoc across the world wants to kill Death because Death didnt allow her to step too far out of line and have her country be destroyed by divine punishment>Traveler: Her underlings hurt my friends on numerous occasions, but she seems like a cool gal. She wants all of her subject to have paintings of her. Let's do it!>Traveler: What do you mean killing Death resulted in every country having to face divine punishment!? How could you do this, Heavenly Principles!?

Her game.
>>750227493You mean their game.

>>750227493>Electro Archon, The God of Thunder, >currently the worst of all limited electro 5*, basically Razor tierSara must be crying herself to sleep right now
>>750229225I think they're scared to buff her because she also functions as a battery for the entire party, greatly diminishing energy recharge needs. If she actually became good, like legitimately fucking good, she'd cause balance issues. So she has to stay shit.
>>750229571They could very easily buff her just by giving her a Stellar buff and nothing else. Either she debuffs or buffs Stellar-Glimmer damage while gaining some sort of small EM buff and now she's meta again due to how much the E procs. You don't need to go crazy with her and can still limit her to what teams can use her.
>>750227493Ei?
>>750229225>>750229571Migo was the real Inazuma archon representative all along.
>>750229571God forbid we get 1 (ONE) character that allows us to not run favonious weapons on 3/4 characters in the team.
How does the sky anomaly work for people who never repaired the nail in Dragonspine anyway?It is a bit funny how they talk about the issue of breaking one of these things when we started the game with one being in pieces without any apocalypse or anything of the sort. The thing did its job the moment it hit the ground.
I want to FUCK Yaoyao!
>>750230364Mihoyo as a company doesn't care about story continuity.>You are assumed to have done all the Narzissenkreuz content and even if the entire island is still floating in Fontaine Sandrone will still speak as if you did it.>The entire Sumeru section of Nod-Krai assumes you've done all of Jeht's story, the entire Aranara story to know Arabalika and Rana, and Sorush's story.>You are expected to have done all of Simulanka when Albedo's trial happens.>You are expected to have already known about the fake sky from Scaramouche before they ever mention it in Natlan.>You are expected to know Albedo has an evil twin and that Gold is their "mother" before any of the trial or Nod-Krai stuff happens.and on and on. I have to assume it won't give you the quest to actually meet Albedo up there for the epilogue until you do the story though because it would conflict with what's going on as you can't access the top of the mountain until you do all of the story.In ZZZ I literally have had to make my own written guide listing when events happened before what sections of the story because they spawn characters you have never met with events spoiling content you haven't even done yet. I just started season 2 chapter 1, and the instant I stepped outside of the temple Eous was talking to Birkblick about Banyue and how we know the Krampus Compliance Authority. After a day's rotation Eous was talking to Mercury about Seed, Manato and Lucia are standing outside of a building to make me start a quest when Lucia I don't think is even able to be around yet. Then in season 1 chapter 5 I had Astra being introduced to me for the first time I've ever seen her in the main story as if we already know each other, I helped her out, she controlled a Bangboo to sneak out, etc.
>>750227883>mfw didn't fall for the rampant C2 shilling
>>750230986I mean they did for most of the game's lifetime still.Albedo's trial was the breaking point where they stopped adding different interactions for things you haven't done.Though for:>You are expected to have already known about the fake sky from Scaramouche before they ever mention it in Natlan.You learn that from Nahida as she gets the info from Dottore in exchange for one of the hearts of god. And that's main storyline leading into Natlan.
>>750231310I thought Scaramouche said more than just the fact it was fake and went into it some more whereas Dottore just asked Kusanali if she knew about it. It was my understanding the Dragonspine event was where they actually explained this properly.
>>750231447The mouche knows about it because dottore told him. Then nahida was playing 4D chess with Dottore bluffing to nuke one gnosis in exchange for important knowlage and all of his segments, how his last segment is burning in hell, or soul or whatever
>>750231447>I thought Scaramouche said more than just the fact it was fake and went into it some more whereas Dottore just asked Kusanali if she knew about it. It was my understanding the Dragonspine event was where they actually explained this properly.No, there was no further explanation. He just reads from the fallen meteorite and goes "Oh I see, so the sky is a fake a big hoax" and fucks off.There was really nothing more to it than that until Fontaine made space a thing that we actually interact with and it's not just Traveler's memories of past travels (while being stuck on an isolated world) by introducing the book that says Khaenrians beacon in intergalactic kids, the intergalactic planet-eating whale and further still in Natlan with poking a hole in it and having Skirk as an alien representative being allowed in via regular old magic... and dragon space ships.
>>750232028>>750231447Whence interpretations of what was actually meant with the "fake sky" like the inverted Teyvat theory.
>>750229720yeah but all buffs need a lore fucking reason to happen since devs are autistic like thatraiden can't just stumble upon barbeloth's tarot reading like the other characters
>>750200245>penelope rawlinswait, the new paimon VA is 50?i would expect them cast someone younger
>>750230986Yeah They really are shit at making their games so that they still makes sense for people that haven't played them from day 1 and done everything every patch.This and powercreep making my favourite characters useless for current content is by far the largest turnoffs with their games.I just wanna play my Qiqi, Zhu team again. But nooo, buy the latest shill or get fucked.
>>750233664>I just wanna play my Qiqi, Zhu team again.I think you meant Qingyi? Qiqi is technically meta in Gesnhin ATM.And yeah, ZZZ really doesn't know what it's doing with the power of its characters.
