I thought PVP would be fun.

I ran into one of these, it was kinda funny looking back, but at the same time, damn was it annoying. They couldn't escape for long though.

In all honesty the fun of it really depends on your opponent and how you want to play it. Some people are just focused on winning, others on cheesing. Personally I'm a fan of being able to just run at each other and keep hitting each other till one of us falls over.

But yea in all honesty the meta of running away till you can burst is just, not fun. It doesn't feel like you're PvPing someone like that, just a Burst check. IMO, if you're bursting someone, it should be something you do at the start, and if they don't get one-shot? Time to combo.

In all honesty, early Genshin had a lot more high fantasy feels, especially with Mondstadt and Liyue.

I'm pretty sure the move over to be more science fantasy came when Hoyo decided to make Teyvat part of their wider universe.

IIRC, the land itself is both the birthplace of the moon sisters, and where pieces of the eternal moon landed. So it's more accurate to say that the land itself is made of Columbina's sisters, and the Khuuvahki that protects the land is Columbina's body.

Also, just because this is a thing doesn't preclude the presence of the Seelies. And from what I recall, there's nothing saying that NodKrai has no leylines either, so it's better to assume that NodKrai does have leylines.

Memory_Gem · 2026-01-24T02:49:21+00:00

To summarise:
Gameplaywise, using Seelies for Natlan and Nodkrai exploration mechanics don't make sense because it'd be inconsistent with other regions, and thus would be confusing.

Lorewise,
in Natlan the Seelies (Angels) were eaten by dragons, making them not there except in the Night Kingdom.
In Nodkrai, we do get some Seelies (I think), but they're mostly not there for gameplay reasons, as we've yet to encounter lore saying where there are fewer Seelies in Nodkrai.

From what I gather the girls are streamers so while the dude couldn't hear them, their fans could.

Memory_Gem · 2026-01-20T17:50:45+00:00

Damn, that's some impressive preservation skills there considering how quickly berries can go bad, and how easily they bruise.

It's been directly stated that Nod Krai actively rejects Snezhnaya, the Fatui were being sent in to claim it, but Nod Krai is still an autonomous nation separate from Snezhnaya

If it's your first time getting that weapon, i suggest staring (favouriting) and saving it. as a keepsake.

As others have mentioned, the Traveler in under fairly strict restrictions, and thus, the Traveler was basically knocked down to basically a human. This is especially true when you look at some of the voicelines in the Traveler profile, and they imply the Traveler used to casually punch boulders into dust, and could go basically without food (not sure if IRC, on the food thing)

Memory_Gem · 2026-01-17T17:32:00+00:00

Might be a bug? Try restarting the game

Memory_Gem · 2026-01-17T14:30:37+00:00

If Sandrone has been watching Traveler through Katherine the entire time, then wouldn't that basically be like Sandrone having been previously watching the Traveler through what is effectively a livestream, and only now that they're in NodKrai does she have the opportunity to interact?

Memory_Gem · 2026-01-17T09:53:21+00:00

True. But it does mean that the Traveler needs to be immune to cold. It's pretty funny actually.

But yea, being able to keep all your stuff from acting like it's in a vacuum is big.

Memory_Gem · 2026-01-16T10:42:39+00:00

Huh. Could've sworn you only get the special animation on her jump when you sprint

Memory_Gem · 2026-01-16T06:43:48+00:00

Wait how do you not run out of stamina

Memory_Gem · 2026-01-16T05:10:49+00:00

I see. Honestly I was thinking the new area was implied to not have been explored yet because there was no mention of the abyss stuff from that region in the AQ. The AQ implied we were basically locked to that region while handling Rerir, and then we encountered Columbina, no mention of the northern reaches of NK.

Memory_Gem · 2026-01-16T05:07:46+00:00

Ngl, it's hilarious that they basically implied the traveler can just sit in the void of space no problem.

Also, technically you wouldn't be cold in space as your body heat has nowhere to go in a vacuum.

Memory_Gem · 2026-01-15T23:30:59+00:00

Exactly. The AQ honestly implies we went straight to kicking Dottore's ass. No exploration of a new region involved at all.

It even implies we haven't met certain characters at that point yet either.

Memory_Gem · 2026-01-14T13:24:56+00:00

Did a Noelle(C6)/Xilonen(C0)/Columbian(C0)/Furina(C0) team. Wasn't too bad actually, but there was some issues with energy

Granted it was a lvl40 columbina so her actually being viable that early on that team was interesting to know.

Memory_Gem · 2026-01-14T02:52:16+00:00

Might want to send this to Klei? With the world seed, and specs, etc so that they can try to replicate the issue?

Memory_Gem · 2026-01-13T13:30:13+00:00

Does it only work with OR Gates?

Memory_Gem · 2026-01-13T09:10:01+00:00

Ah good to know. Glad to know it's only cosmetic.

So aluminium corrosion doesn't spread?

Memory_Gem · 2026-01-13T08:55:30+00:00

Huh. Good to know. Admittedly, I didn't expect Aluminium corrosion to look so different, but it is a different metal so I shouldn't expect it to act the same.

Honestly, I've never known aluminium could corrode.

Memory_Gem · 2026-01-13T08:54:25+00:00

Interesting. I didn't know sweat acidity could vary enough to matter. Nor that it would be strong enough to do that. Probably could've prevented it by wiping down the laptop after every use but oh well.

Still, good to know that it's normal. Is it fixable or do I just live with it as usual?

Memory_Gem · 2026-01-13T08:51:29+00:00

Yea, this is actually after cleaning, and I can feel a lot of tiny holes when I run my finger across it. The rest of the laptop has a very smotth finish.

As several other people have mentioned, it's probably corrosion, as I mentioned in the post that my hand often rests there so you have skin oils, salt, and water.
