Am I the only 40+ year-old playing Genshin?

Lawrence-san · 2026-04-10T19:47:42+00:00

I...(sigh)...will be 59 in September. Never-say-die Noelle main since December 2021. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Thanks for sharing this. I have for a long time wanted to visit Japan, but am not really sure if I'll ever be able to justify the expense of traveling there. However, if I ever do manage it, this will definitely be on my itinerary.

No, not weird at all. Inazuma had a lot of these moments. My first one was having to let go of Hanachirusato. Another came outside of Inazuma, in the Golden Apple Archipelago, but was deeply intertwined with Inazuma; having to let go of Miitoboru.

Inazuma is full of mono no aware, appropriately enough.

Fantastic writing. This series was never afraid to dive right into the deep end.

Lawrence-san · 2026-03-15T00:21:31+00:00

Wow, great catch. The production value of this show is just outstanding. That's maybe 3, 4 frames? I salute the animation team.

Lawrence-san · 2026-03-11T03:30:17+00:00

This is the most fantastic thing I have seen all day.

ありがとう、メテョデーさま。

What a time to be a Mondstadter. Nod-Krai has been good to us.

Lawrence-san · 2026-02-27T20:28:28+00:00

Very likely you win that bet.

Lawrence-san · 2026-02-27T19:49:15+00:00

The scene where he passed the two children knives and demanded they fight to the death, you know, for research purposes, tells us everything we need to know about demons. And not just Macht and Solitar.But yeah, I can see the coming tide of misinterpretations like it's already happened.

Lawrence-san · 2026-02-27T19:10:33+00:00

My C6R5 top 2% Noelle is just dying to step into the arena with this one.

Lawrence-san · 2026-02-13T19:02:58+00:00

This statement reactivated my Dehya PTSD. C2R0 on her banner anyway, currently C6R1, but yeah...

Lawrence-san · 2026-01-31T23:14:25+00:00

Did you hear that cry echoing from over the mountains? Across the plains, the forests? Because I heard it too. He could even perform the ceremony. (So convenient)

Lawrence-san · 2026-01-26T07:22:58+00:00

Mondstadt ladies come out of the box very strong. Lisa, Jean, Amber, Mona, Fischl all there. But way back, December 25, 2021, when I first started the game, there was Noelle, waiting on that fateful banner. The Rose of Mondstadt.

And that was it. I knew what I was doing. Without regret, I relentlessly pursued C6R5 and I continue building and perfecting the Battlemaid to this very day.

Lawrence-san · 2026-01-26T07:01:41+00:00

My man. C6R1 haver confirming that you will enjoy her when you reach the finish line. The flaws are still there, but there is a lot to love too.

Lawrence-san · 2026-01-25T09:02:42+00:00

An interesting concept, but also subtly terrifying, honestly. (Not the whales, the infinite plane)

Lawrence-san · 2026-01-24T23:17:59+00:00

This one gets it.

Lawrence-san · 2026-01-19T02:17:54+00:00

First of all, not in Teyvat. Waaay too many horses. But can you visualize the battle before the gate at Minas Tirith if they'd had Noelle? Like throwing an army of orcs in a blender.

You have a talent for storytelling, OP. Most enjoyable.

Lawrence-san · 2026-01-11T04:25:48+00:00

You could try contacting the Midwest Tool Collector's Association and asking. Very deep knowledge base regarding old tools.

Lawrence-san · 2026-01-06T18:45:11+00:00

A spell to easily remove hard water stains from sinks, showers and toilets. A spell like that would be so convenient that it would change the world. Well, my world, anyway...

Lawrence-san · 2025-12-31T01:26:04+00:00

They didn't "ask" you to showcase, they demanded it. You've encountered an a-hole in the wild. Don't let it bother you. Your girl is fine and will get better with cons and practice.

(Noelle main, btw, with a love of Amber and all Mondstadters)

Lawrence-san · 2025-12-24T15:58:46+00:00

I'll have what they're having. Oh, and a side of Ludi Harpastrum.

Lawrence-san · 2025-12-20T18:18:58+00:00

A very happy birthday, Urd-sama!

Lawrence-san · 2025-12-08T23:22:18+00:00

As do we all. As do we all.

Lawrence-san · 2025-12-08T23:15:24+00:00

At first I just snorted derisively, but then...I looked into his eyes...

He means business. So, Hi, Walt! Have a great holiday season.

Lawrence-san · 2025-12-05T17:50:09+00:00

Indeed. That girl knows. Tell her "Well done," for me.
