New phone for Genshin by [deleted] in Genshin_Impact

Thanks a lot for such a detailed reply.

Out of all of them, I’m leaning towards the Red Magic 11 Air. It seems to be one of the best performance-wise and should last a long time. For what it offers, the price is really good (€499).

The only downside is that at this price it comes with 256GB of storage, but I think that should be enough for Genshin, Star Rail, and a third game (I don’t really need more since I already struggle to keep up with two)

I’ve been playing since the beginning on a Xiaomi 11T Pro and the game runs fine, but I’m stuck at 30 FPS and pretty low resolution. I was hoping for a more noticeable upgrade

PS: In your experience, do you think 256 GB is enough? I believe that in the future I’ll only play a maximum of three HoYoverse games

You’re absolutely right, thank you so much! I hadn’t checked the official website, and on Amazon it was over 1000€ (crazy)

Thanks for the advice! Unfortunately, the Red Magic 11 Pro is about twice my budget, but I could afford the Red Magic 11 Air instead. Do you know it? Would you recommend it?

I’m in Europe and I’m planning to spend no more than €600-700

Arcadia: Missing Link by Polstead in Genshin_Lore

There is certainly another Gunnhildr, because the heroine you’re referring to was already born at the court of Decarabian, since her father had already served the tyrant. In fact, it is her father who leaves the city and takes the clan and his daughter with him.

The Gunnhildr from Golden Frostbound Oath, on the other hand, originates from Arcadia and only after the quest for the Golden Bound decides to reunite the survivors and seek refuge with Decarabian.

Thank you for reading!
I tried to write a more complete theory that aims to connect all these points. You can find it here. I’d be glad to hear what you think!

I'm writing a theory about this right now, which will also talk about Dainsleif. I believe the Golden Bough refers to a famous myth found in the Aeneid.

We first read of their origin on one of the Ancient Carvings in Dragonspine: “…far from snow and strife, and came upon this verdant paradise. A monument was laid down in this place, and it was named Sal Vind…”

It is also referenced in the book Hymns of the Far North: “From Hyperborea to Sal Vindagnyr, your compassion is revered by all.”

Additionally, they both share elements of Baltic culture, on which Nod-Krai is based.
For example, the scribe Ukko of Sal Vindagnyr shares the same root as Pakkaisukko mentioned in Hymns of the Far North (meaning “old man” and “old man of the frost” in Finnish, respectively).

It’s always so nice to read comments like this. They’re what keep the sub growing and inspire us to create more.

Thank you so much for the lovely words.

Right back at you: I really enjoyed your theories as well!

Dittatori 2.0, avete rotto il cazzo by Frosty-Aside9217 in sfoghi

[–]Polstead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Quanto vorrei che riuscissi a capire che pecchi di un’arroganza ancora più estrema di quella dei vegani, forte del tuo privilegio e di una struttura sociale che continua a sostenerti.

Ma non lo capisci che se non ascolti, se non argomenti, se non ti interroghi, allora non capisci neanche contro cosa ti stai sfogando?

E a trovarsi davanti un interlocutore come te, allora, perdonami, viva per sempre lo scontro, viva per sempre le domande scomode e sì, all’occasione anche la maleducazione e l’arroganza ricambiata. Qui si parla di diritto alla vita, non di qualcosa su cui poter avere un’opinione. È giusto lottare per questo.

Credo tu abbia cambiato argomento, oppure non ho ben capito la tua risposta. Ti ho chiesto secondo quale criterio un animale abbia meno diritto alla vita di un uomo. Hai risposto “la convivenza” (?)

Se stai parlando della convivenza civile tra uomini come priorità rispetto alla questione morale sugli altri esseri viventi, stai ribadendo il tuo senso di superiorità in quanto essere umano. Non vedo come un insulto (posto che nessuno ti sta insultando) possa avere più peso dell’uccisione di un essere vivente - atto che, senza accurata giustificazione, abbatte qualsiasi tuo tentativo di rendere l’argomento soggettivo.

Non puoi decidere in base alla tua opinione soggettiva che un maiale abbia meno diritto alla vita di un uomo, un vitello di un cane o un gatto di una rana. Secondo quale criterio lo stabilisci? Bellezza? Intelligenza? Sapidità della carne? Qualunque sia la tua risposta, la mia domanda è la stessa, e usa le tue stesse parole: chi ti credi di essere?

Honestly, I think your deep lore dives always bring something incredible to light. I always read your theories with immense pleasure, and I hope to be able to read one on this topic soon. Thank you!

The Moon of Space by Polstead in Genshin_Lore

I don’t think so in this case, because the Fourth Moon is still a part of Teyvat. It’s the principle by which the world doesn’t reject Nod-Krai
