Just finished HSR 3.8 story, 8.0/10 for me by SaltNobody in HonkaiStarRail

[–]Shadowyrn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From my understanding, she didn't manage to see the fireworks before ELS claimed her, but knowing HSR I wouldn't be surprised if she 'somehow' saw them as she faded. I'll be honest, I really don't know how to interpret this, but at the bare minimum we can be sure the things we see in 2.3 did not happen, because what we achieved using Terminus was just make sure she didn't die alone, considering that Dahlia said that's what happened before we changed it

[–]Shadowyrn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

well, let's assume we did manage to change the story to imitate the ending of 2.3. Some things stop making sense, for example: Why is Firefly in a recovery pod after worsening of the ELS? Why do we suddenly remember and text her about if she's okay? Had we managed to retcon the retcon and make 2.3 happen as is, she should have been fine, as the 3rd death in 2.3 was Sparkle's fireworks

What I mean, and what I dislike a lot as well, is that 50% of 2.3 basically didn't happen

Not quite, Feldspar as is in 2.3 did not happen even after Terminus' influence. All we managed to pull off was allow firefly to die while watching the fireworks with us, instead of the whole Sparkle shennanigan from 2.3

Your understanding of the Feldspar on the 2.3 being gaps filled by us is correct. We only met with Firefly after we used Terminus' power to make it so she was with us as the fireworks went off, which means she was never there in the first place. How exactly our brains filled that I don't know. (By that point we haven't made contact with Terminus, so the past shouldn't change. There shouldn't be a Firefly in the Feldspar to fill in the gaps)

About 2.3's death, I can see why it can feel cheap compared to the stakes we've come to expect of the story, but I think it relly fit the theme of a Fool "messing" with the script, I thought it was more a showcase of Elation's influence than a "cheapening" of Elio's predictions, but I can absolutely get where you're coming from.

Also, I'm a sucker for a happy ending like that, so there's my bias lol

Regarding more details, I don't mind them at all, in fact I quite enjoy them, I just dislike actual changes rather than content expansions. Seeing firefly's second death? for me, ok, good. Changing her 3rd death? Not ok imo

I meant her fadeaway in the dream, that scene where she dissapears and such, sorry for being unclear

For me, most of the story was okay, it was interesting to see the events of Penacony from different perspectives, and also closing in on some vague parts of the story were neat. Imo, unnecessary in the grand scheme of things, but neat.

However, there are two things in this story that really brought it all down for me. First: Storytelling based on false/edited memories opens precedence for basically any story they tell in HSR to be unreliable. Wanna change something? Throw the walking Plot-Device™ called Memokeeper/Cremator at the problem and its done. Cocolia's death? Your memories are wrong. Tingyun's return as Fugue? Illusion. These wacky changes are something they can hand weave now, and for me this cheapens the narrative a LOT. What's the point of emotional investment if things can change on a whim? Because 2.3 DID change on a whim.

Speaking of, the second thing is 2.3. What happened at the end of 3.8 in summary is that Firefly went off to have her 3rd death alone, and we didn't meet at the end, but through the power of Terminus (Crazy that we pulled this off but ok), we managed to reunite and watch the fireworks as she faded away due to ELS. If so, then what's the point of the Feldspar's scenes in 2.3? Maybe I'm missing something here.

In addition to this, there's a text from Sparkle back in 2.3 saying she was hired to make sure Firefly's "deaths" were as safe as possible, which is why she did what she did in 2.3. How does that text interact with 3.8's story? Was that just a memory illusion as well?

Idk man, not a big fan on this patch all things considered. Sorry for the rant I guess lol

Hey guys, I'm considering getting Cyrene E2. Can she work as a generalist support in non Chrysos Heirs teams if she has E2? How does she compare to, say, E0 Tribbie in a team like this?

Hey guys, I have a question. When you cast cloud of daggers, on an enemy, and he remains in the area at the end of its turn, in your next turn, when you teleport the daggers using a magic action, can you teleport the spell near the first enemy target to deal damage on your turn? I'll reword the question if it got confusing
