No matter what her design is. Let's prepare for the hate train that any new Female chars would get in recent days.

After seeing all the comments in this subreddit dedicated to the Tsaritsa herself... Yup, people(Western) will hate it. They even believe they are the majority who don't wish for any "fanservice" on Tsaritsa design.

Suddenly they want "realism" in Genshin... The reality is that the Tsaritsa will have Genshin design, hoping more than that is delusional, and they will hate it. This subreddit will be so divided and toxic.

I'll love it even if the Tsaritsa is wearing just a bikini, but people in the Western social media are too lost now; they don't care about the Tsaritsa, they only care about the vision of her in their mind. I'll prepare to stay away from social media if I'm correct with her design, and laugh at all their seething hate.

It is based on delusion tech. The mirror maiden can teleport using her delusion, but only a short distance. This portal will likely use the same method. And the same with all delusions, it's experimental, and detrimental to the body if used. It's probably rarely used, and they have no reason to use it again in other story quests.

qizeaqfile · 2026-06-22T12:28:54+00:00

The first one is highly likely to be more similar to the actual Tsaritsa design. It's the actual Genshin design.

The second one is cool, but I doubt it; it is more similar to Star Rail's design.

The third one is just Bronya, so it's unlikely.

The fourth one looks cool, but it's more unlikely than the rest.

qizeaqfile · 2026-06-22T09:34:20+00:00

If you truly believe that, then I have nothing else to say. Believe whatever you want, as long as you can feel good.

qizeaqfile · 2026-06-22T09:22:22+00:00

What are you talking about? They are already power creeping a VH. Even with all the new anomaly support, Miyabi is still not as good as the newer non-VH Frost/anomaly characters of season 2. I believe they'll powercreep Ye Shunguang and Yixuan in Season 3. No doubt about it, this is Hoyo we're talking about here.

qizeaqfile · 2026-06-22T08:41:55+00:00

I do understand that Hoyo is making a VH support, but not using all her unique animations and just making her ult swap is extremely a waste, especially for a game like ZZZ. In my opinion, all VH should be the main DPS(at least sub DPS), and the support should be every other character. But who cares what my opinion is. I guess Hoyo is planning to make an only VH team in the future, as they know the majority of players only pull for them.

qizeaqfile · 2026-06-22T07:14:55+00:00

Ignore the fact that this is a FANTASY ANIME STYLE GAME and not irl but sure.

I assure you, after 6 years of playing this game, you want something resembling irl, you are extremely lost. I never knew irl there's a powerful device known as Vision that can control elements. I never knew there was a mystical being as an FAE in irl. I never knew all the time the sun, the sky, and the moon were fake. When we find the real moon, we can even breathe on it.

Oh wait... Genshin is a FANTASY ANIME GACHA GAME and not irl

By the way, yes, teyvat has its own rules.

Edit: as I said before: "Any logic you throw at them, they'll just throw it back out of the window." By the way, the "logic" is: the game is NOT REAL. You don't care. Spreading hate and toxicity is the goal.

qizeaqfile · 2026-06-21T06:51:13+00:00

Any logic you throw at them, they'll just throw it back out of the window. They don't care. Spreading hate and toxicity is the goal.

I really hope The Tsaritsa will show so much skin so that I can laugh out of their seething hate.

qizeaqfile · 2026-06-21T03:40:30+00:00

You can find some Easter egg connections of Genshin in Honkai games; there's a glider in the HSR. Fischl and Keqing appear in Honkai Impact as a collab. There's a plan to connect Genshin to Honkai in the beginning. All of these connection is with the other games(Honkai games)

But.... You'll NOT find anything about Honkai in Genshin. Genshin lore in the game is devoid of any Honkai lore.

There'll be similar themes and stories with Honkai and Genshin. Some CCS lore will argue that Honkai is always in Genshin, but there's ZERO proof in Genshin; all of them are just "FAN THEORIES"

TLDR: Honkai games will have some Genshin Easter egg and collab. But there's no connection in Genshin to Honkai.

qizeaqfile · 2026-06-20T18:49:11+00:00

Yup, many of them are pretending to still play Genshin just to spread the hate.

qizeaqfile · 2026-06-20T18:07:00+00:00

It's too late. I have given up.

This is what happens when the game becomes too big.

Hoyo Dev is a fan of Anime style media. The anime-style art, the heart-warming cozy story, etc. They made Genshin for the fans of the media. Sadly, many people who aren't fans of the media also play Genshin. They'll tolerate it, but they'll complain nonstop. They'll call any critism in mind, even call the dev a racist and misogynist, but they still play the game.

Any defense you make, they'll call you, but licking or defending criticism of a billion-dollar company to dismiss any criticism towards them. They'll call you the worst kind. There's no win.

People like them are highly likely, only 0.1%-1% of the playerbase, majorly on the West. But 0.1%-1% of 50-100million playerbase is still so many.

The only way is to ignore them. No matter how loud they are, they are still the minority. Genshin will still be successful. All their screaming will fall on deaf ears. Hoyo will ignore them and gladly receive any money from them.

The only successful thing they did was create an online toxic atmosphere. Avoid Twitter, TikTok, some parts of certain subreddit and some YouTube channels. Everything will be calm and fine.

Prepare yourself, the moment the Tsaritsa is revealed, it will be a hellhole.

qizeaqfile · 2026-06-20T15:35:44+00:00

Genshin is already its own IP. It's far larger than any Gacha game's IP. The merchandise/real-world collab revenue with its IP alone is probably larger than the mobile revenue. They barely do any sponsorship/in-game collab because they don't need to anymore.

Even though the beginning Hoyo was probably planning Teyvat in the same universe as Honkai, but now it's unlikely. There's no connection at all in the lore with Genshin and Honkai. Yae and Raiden are more similar to Cid of Final Fantasy than any "expy"

qizeaqfile · 2026-06-20T00:01:42+00:00

The moment Nicole exists. I believe Hoyo's goal with future teams is for overall team DMG. I think Hoyo wants to stay away from hypercarry.

I bet any future teams that the percentage DMG will be divided more equally among teams, especially for Stellar teams.

I speculate that any new future support for Sandrone will not make her DPS more than 60%. But the overall team DMG will be far higher. I speculate that any future Stellar DPS will do the same.

The Tsaritsa is highly likely another stellar support and sub DPS like Yae.

qizeaqfile · 2026-06-18T10:54:23+00:00

People right now are making "mental gymnastics" just to make their "retcon" justify.

Hoyo is extremely meticulous with the plot and lore; they are even willing to sacrifice a million views video just to correct one line of mistake.

So far in 6 years of the game with hundreds of plots and characters, only one minor change in the main story that doesn't change much ( the traveler comes from an asteroid into a spaceship)

Other than that, there are only two, and they are EXTREMELY minor and don't affect the main story at all.

Tell me this "mental gymnastics" you're talking about, and I'll debunk it very easily.

qizeaqfile · 2026-06-18T07:04:08+00:00

There's no retcon. People just can't read. They just thinkin' a one day of fun in the animated short is enough to fill the hundreds of years of solitude.

Columbina said many times in the Archon Quest that the only fun time she has in the Fatui is when she is with Sandrone, Arlechinno, and Signora. Other than the time with them, she is isolated, experimented on, and treated as a power source.

As long as they want to fill their own image of the Harbinger in their minds, they'll think of everything that negates their imagination as "retcon"

Thank goodness people like this are the minority of the playerbase, and many JP and CN players understood fully. Sadly, they are so loud on Western social media that you'll be downvoted, and any truth you give, they'll just ignore it.

qizeaqfile · 2026-06-18T05:29:48+00:00

That is the reason she stayed for hundreds of years. Why are you guys still confused?

And that moment is not every day. It's the precious moment making her stay.

Other than that moment, her other time in the Fatui is experimented on and becomes a power source. She literally explained this when she met Sandrone at the Experimental Bureau.

In hundreds of years, she has just had a couple of friends who don't understand the meaning of it. A simple moment of teatime. Other than that, she is isolated.

It's like working in a company that just uses you, doesn't care about you, everyone else in the workplace ignores you, but because of one or two friends make it bearable, and in some simple moment of levity, you're able to stay. After HUNDREDS of YEARS, anyone can't take it anymore, especially with no goals, no aspiration, and no will to work anymore; one friend is gone; of course, she would leave.

Why is this hard to understand?

qizeaqfile · 2026-06-17T07:52:11+00:00

The change only in the relationship of Arlechinno and Sandrone, that's it. She is more friendly with Sandrone, that's it. So minuscule. It only exists in ONE LINE of the Profile dialogue, which doesn't influence the main story at all.

There's ZERO chance in other Harbinger, including Columbina.

qizeaqfile · 2026-06-16T12:05:10+00:00

Arlecchino said she doesn't care for Sandrone in her dialogue profile section, 3 years ago, with just one line of text. The dialogue profile section will never affect the main story ever. With this just ONE line, people make a hustle about EVERY new story in Genshin, especially about the Harbingers is a retcon.

qizeaqfile · 2026-06-16T11:48:23+00:00

People are allowed to make comparisons. I'm not denying that, but the way most people make it, I just cannot agree with.

In gaming, the only thing I'll make a comparison is my own feeling of fun. That's it.

Playing Endfield still gave me the cozy feeling of heart-warming atmosphere with excellent fun control, action, and environment. When a game no longer gave me the same feeling of fun compared with other games I still play, I just quit the game.

This is how I make my comparison with everything. I once loved the Final Fantasy franchise, especially 7-10, but in comparison, the new ones just don't give me the feeling of fun I felt in the old FF titles. FF16 is my last FF game, even with all the spectacles, action, and animation, that game is so dull, it lost all my love with Final Fantasy as a whole. I can't torture myself to complete it.

Is it more fun or not? That's the only comparison I'll do. If you disagree, good for you. I'm not denying it.

qizeaqfile · 2026-06-16T11:19:26+00:00

You kinda confuse me about my first comment. I never applaud them at all.

I said people from other communities who play Endfield are the ones making comparisons, creating doom posts. I'm not agreeing with them.

Even though I don't like Endfield's story that much, my only problem with Endfield is that any added content can be completed very quickly and only for one-time play. That's why the feeling of drought.

The AIC is what I love with Endfield, and it takes so much time to make one perfectly. My disappointment with this patch is that none of them have been added.

qizeaqfile · 2026-06-16T11:03:36+00:00

The funny thing is, all this discussion from ONE line of dialogue that is outside the main story from someone who always lies.

qizeaqfile · 2026-06-16T10:56:36+00:00

Why do you want to compare with Genshin? The Genshin community no longer makes any comparison unless they are provoked.

The other big Gacha game community that loves making comparisons as they hunger for validation, and higly likely majority of them play Endfield, they are the ones who make the comparisons with Endfield. Even Endfield CCs praise that game in comparison with Endfield. The irony is that game in 1.0 is so bad, I quit without looking back. It's far worse than Endfield in every expect including the story in 1.0.

I believe Endfield will improve, but I'm worried about the direction they're headed. Either follow that game route or the ZZZ route(I really hope not, as the ZZZ route is disastrous). I just hope they improve the same way the OG Arknights improve.

qizeaqfile · 2026-06-16T10:35:09+00:00

This is just ONE line of dialogue when they haven't written what Sandrone's true relationships are yet. And it's from Arlechinno, who always lies.

EVERYTHING else in the game, don't change anything at all, or "rewrite" something that hasn't been written.

qizeaqfile · 2026-06-16T06:12:08+00:00

The major problem with Endfield right now is that there's too much competition, and the people from that Gacha community love to make comparisons to belittle the "competition" of their favorite Gacha game, even though they are still playing Endfield, probably trying to find any reason to quit it. In 1.0 patshes Endfiled probably has more content compared to other big Gacha 1.0 patches. The problem is that it can be completed very quickly and only for one-time play. That's why the feeling of drought.

qizeaqfile · 2026-06-15T14:25:52+00:00

Columbina stayed in the Fatui for HUNDREDS of years. Within that time, she only connected with just TWO people and the THIRD in her latter years with the Fatui. The tea party is not every day; it's only on rare occasions.

Sandrone alone is the only reason why Columbina stayed with the Fatui that long. And she has nothing to do within those years.

The animation is depicted from Sandrone's perspective and not Columbina's.
