maybe wallace being my fav was foreshadowing

because even my darkness will shine brightly.
i realized a while back that i've probably been in a fluctuating state of adhd burnout for nearly a decade and that i should probably take better care of myself to Actually Recover instead of throwing myself into new things to patch it up and then crash out even harder later time and time again but also lol i can't imagine caring enough about myself to do all that yet tbh

Man, I haven't had this much fun in months. Should've given Genshin a chance way earlier; I feel a little sad that all these NPCs in Liyue reference Fontaine, Sumeru, Inazuma and I know I can just pop on over and visit those locations rather than spend weeks fantasising about what the places could be like.

Ah well.

I somehow managed to remain almost entirely unspoiled (I know Fontaine has some court thingermajig, Nahida has something to do with memories, Scaramouche is an evil dude who has something to do with a gnosis), so it's been a lot of fun. Just arrived at Inazuma, and although I pulled Kaedehara because he looked cute, I don't really like his in-game portrayal as some flawless beacon of amazing.
Inazuma had so much potential from a writing POV, but it suffers from just what you pointed out. When I sit and think about many of the main Inazuma characters, a good majority suffer from being "all-knowing" and "flawless".

SPOILER: Click to show
Yae Miko being my main gripe for this. I might be one of the few who genuinely doesn't like her.


In terms of writing, I feel like Fontaine has some of the strongest writing for characters as well as story.

It is nice to hear you're having so much fun, though!!!! Genshin just turned 4 years old today and has gotten a lot of flak (both necessary and kinda unnecessary), so it's such a breath of fresh air to hear someone getting into it and liking it. The music is some of my favorite video game music. Yu Peng Chen knew what he was doing before he moved on.
This was actually a problem even back when the game started in Mond tbh. If you even look at Diluc's flavor text as an example it says he's "unmatched in every way." I don't think the character writing improves out of everyone being just token good at things until part way through Sumeru and into Fontaine.

so it goes.
Giving Genshin another shot because I've always thought it was so beautiful but just SO busy and not very beginner friendly imo, menu overload but ... I am enjoying myself now. Just made it to Liyue but locked behind getting to AR 18! Lol
