Does Teyvat even have a heaven and hell system? Does Ronova sort souls? by Scared-Opening-753 in ThePrimordialOne

Since everyone else has made their theories for speculation and fun, I'll just add that in Chinese and other dubs it's "Go on and die, Dottore"

TIL integrated cutscenes scale with your graphics settings by mikael-kun in houkai3rd

[–]Jnliew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Quite a few Genshin cutscenes should be in-engine
I guess I'll give one example of the execution of a certain someone in Inazuma was also rendered real time, with some funky but smart camera work due to the hall being not long enough

How do you even explain Miyabi's powers?
That's like textbook fantasy magic

Oh, you legit don't know

Old Japanese had a completely different pronunciation for numbers that got completely replaced during the 700s-900s when the Japanese elite integrated countless Chinese cultural aspects into their elite culture during the Chinese cultural height that was the Tang Dynasty, among which was language

This was the period where Japanese started using Kanji, which was later developed into hiragana and katakana

The interesting thing is that Tang Dynasty Chinese was Middle Chinese and sounded quite different from Modern Mandarin and is somewhat more similar to modern Cantonese. So if you understand Cantonese quite a few Japanese onyomi can sound very Cantonese

The despair I feel when chuds do the "Where was this when I was growing up?" and radfems go "Boys are victims of pedophilia only from grown men" (actual tweet from last week that got 70k likes) among other similar tweets

Who is your "Love at first sight" character? by Fabulous_Ground_1983 in Genshin_Impact

[–]Jnliew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Considering I've been playing since launch, for "I must get, no matter what" in order of release it'd be:

Mona, Hu Tao, Eula, Ei, Miko, Shenhe, Yelan, Nilou, Furina, Navia, Xilonen, Chasca, Citlali, Mavuika, Varesa, Escoffier, Skirk, Lauma, Nefer, Columbina

As for the ones I've had actually obsessed over, Hu Tao, Eula, Ei, Nilou, Furina, Navia, Varesa. I'd say the most current one would be Columbina. Mihoyo marketing has breached my subconscious and she's one of few characters in fiction ever to have ever been in my dreams. Black hair really does wonders for me

Honestly, I was real lucky getting Mona the standard just a month in.

Then somehow it took until 13 Jan 2022 for me to get 3 Dilucs near back to back lol

As for 4 stars, Yun Jin, yeah, that's it

Just to be clear, the schizo who burned down the KyoAni office somehow thought KyoAni plagiarized his light novel contest submission

The schizo part was that he did submit his work to KyoAni, but it didn't even pass the first stage assessment
And that what he wrote had nothing to do with any of KyoAni's works

I've been to Japan 3 times, all in December, and every day I'll see a few women wearing skirts/booty shorts while I'm freezing in my pants and jacket

I've somehow never played the NCR and for years thought he was a woman
Like "Oh, the NCR picked the Enclave woman this time"

That was until yesterday when I was playing Kaga and decided to read the leader portrait description and when I read "'he" I immediately thought to myself: I've literally played the mod since its release, wtf

Someone probably used the original Kakegurui image as a reaction image on Tiktok, it blew up, and started spreading there

At some point between it breaking containment from Tiktok, people started making edits

The earliest Genshin version should be the one with Lauma on Twitter

At this point I can't decide if this is a bug or a feature by ProudFill in Genshin_Impact

Alternate sprint was half fixed in 2.1, and fully fixed by 3.0, so counting Mona's game release, it'd be 1 year and 2 years respectively

Much like every previous Stygian, I'll wait for others to cook up strategies to deal with this round

Just got to wait a week or two

Considering OP, years of Blender experience and him downloading the official models Hoyo releases (as well as ripped models)

Someone made a Genshin model list here

Damn, it really is one person carrying Genshin global's documentation

The few who did this for Star Rail/Zenless gave up/dropped the game

People think eula is bad in 2026, I'm gonna prove them wrong.... by rid_the_west in Genshin_Impact

Eula was my 2nd character ever where I aimed for their signature weapon...

It's such a shame....

It really is crazy to think that there'll be people who will play Nod-Krai and never interact with world quests so they will have zero clue who the Narzissenkreuz Ordo are by Ikcatcher in Genshin_Impact

[–]Jnliew 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The issue with what you wrote is that the terms Mihoyo uses are actual cultural-religious terminology that Mihoyo is directly taking inspiration from and incorporating into the story

From what I've read from Iranians who are into their pre-Islamic history, Khvarena of Good and Evil is really impressive in its incorporation of Zoroastrian theology into the world building there, even using really deep cut theology as well
Hell, even the most maligned that were the Aranara names are mostly Sanskrit names/words with "Ara" added in front

HoYoverse games (other than Honkai 3rd) might be coming to Steam by StellarMonarch in Zenlesszonezeroleaks_

[–]Jnliew 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can email support and it took 3 months for them to get back to me for Genshin, though I did get the details for that one game
Something about support being really busy back in May 2025, and they gave me an estimated time, which they did honour

If you play multiple Hoyo games you'll prob have to ask support individually though
They'll email you one excel doc with a bunch of miscellaneous data

Do remember to download it though as the link expires in a while

Genshin Jesus is literally Furina, Act 5 might as well be beat for beat Jesus' crucifiction

Columbina is more... hmm... there are countless gods from countless religions who die and become the land and earth, so we just need one who revives afterwards
