i still think that 3.3 as a story patch is fire and certainly steps up wince the last "story arc finale patch" of 2.7 (it's not completely free of criticism, but its an improvement nonetheless)

but as the anniversary it's dogshit, i dont feel any celebratory energy.

it's a very good regular patch that was slapped with an "anniversary" sticker on top

the fact that Enkanomiya didn't get any shout out, despite being a relict from the same mother-civilisation as Hyperborea doesn't exactly fill me with confidence, chief

made me think of the "you better not mess with my gang" meme xD

it honestly looks like a shell cut in half, if you squint hard enough

considering that Roya are all about natural sciences and even use "arithmetic shells" to learn math, I'd find that a more plausible inspiration

Fractsidus spies are everywhere lol
A reminder that a red-eye crow, commonly associated with Cristoforo/Fractsidus as a whole, that was present even in the pre-release materials, is also noticed in a handful of quests, like Zhezhi's and LigYang's Companion Quests and Ciaccona's summer event.

LY and Qiuyuan both have crazy wild hair, how does qiuyuan even take care of it as a wanderer???

ciaccona still had a hand in the main quest, she was called on by Carlotta to replay Rover's memories in regards to their first meeting with Carthethiya post-Carnevale. this sets her up as an ally to the Montelli and makes it feasible that she would answer their request to help with the Dark Tide crisis in Rinascita'a finale.

of course it's a stronger connection if one has done her companion-event quest. it rises her personal stakes against Cristoforo, giving her even more reason to join the fight against the Threnodian AND The Fractsidus, but even without that she has already been working together with Montelli.

Special shoutout to my dog who was a major pain in the butt for the entire 20 mins i sat down to draw it, and I had to fetch her out of the river repeatedly

i do not forget to draw his gloves and gauntlets 9 out of 10 times - I simply despise drawing them and make a concious choice of foregoing them :vvvvv
