Anyway still super cool area, I had a hard time liking the 5.0 areas but 5.2 had some great stuff ☝️

"Oh you're a Dragonlord? Cool cool cool... Anyway let's get this dying thing going right? No worries broski I'll rip your heart out for u, noo problem 🙂‍↕️🫡"

I literally awoke from my genshin slumber after seeing this trailer and speed ran the coop event 💀 I need to stock up while I still can

Very true!! Felt like they really went against their usual yappy storytelling and tried to keep it going and moving. Even though I would have been happy with juuust a bit more time in certain areas, I think this is an amazing step in the right direction. Hope they keep this going.

Excited to see more of your works once your back but in the meantime take care 🌞🫰

I probably missed 10 millions things but overall I think this was cool!! What did you think? 👀

Also sidenote: loved venti in this, he had so many fun little voice lines that made comments about fate and whatever.

Only big compliment is that, because it was all of this in a relatively short story, it felt a bit rushed sometimes, especially the part where we go to retrieve the core and then he does the ritual in the big cutscene. I feel like some tension was needed there.

It really feels like they wanted to take interesting lore and tie it into what's going to be relevant soon so it's no longer lost in some random event in 1.X and forgotten about and inaccessible to many players.

Albedos story including our little dragon friend was unexpected, but it made for a decent way of wrapping up the story of dragonspine and introducing a character that can now be used to further the story of R and subsequently of the shades etc etc.

The following story line including the hexenzirkel was fun, the boss fight was great and well designed.

I'm not sure how interesting the first part was for people who played the event back then because it kinda banked on you not knowing much about what had happened.

It felt like a recap, expansion and wrap up for a piece of content we got so long ago, that a lot of people missed and many wondered if we will ever learn more.

Not having done the event quest with Albedo in 1.X this felt like the first step towards them delivering on the promises they made in the recent video.

If this is what Natlan story suffered for I really hope they do a better job with it than the Natlan main story quests...

Especially changing their story telling approach is necessary. I come from an epic-fantasy background, so I don't mind exposition, but video games have amazing ways of doing story telling through gameplay and visuals.
