You think Furina tried to drink piss at one point after Neuvillette gave hers such a glowing review or are you normal
if they would give hu tao a skin I wonder what style they'd go with
it would probably be a 4* skin so it would follow the same outline as her current outfit (like every other skin but diluc’s)… maybe a mini skirt like her oneplus art, something either “business-like” or, like the other liyue skins, a night dress!!! i’d love something with long pants but it’s basically an impossible wish😔
that elusive remark is really just hu tao leaving her mark on his brain so strongly he's just a pining loser about it
still can't stop thinking about how xiao called hu tao elusive like were you looking for her or
hu tao will be lore relevant soon trust... natlan's themes are about death and rebirth surely they'll give hu tao a second story quest in the 5.x series because she's heavily tied to those
Oomf you gotta catalogue your retro before it's gone forever
can hu tao come back... please... i might die if she doesn't show up soon
neuvifuri the shape of water au...... save me save me
re: yes the whale is proobably my biggest problem with the archon quest too. its not that its a deus ex, like it's properly foreshadowed throughout the whole thing but its like...you mean to tell me that the calamity Fated to be brought to fontaine by the rulers of the planet...is munchies by the space whale? like why would such a significant act of celestia have to do with a whale from outside of teyvat, moreover how did it get here?? like the puzzle solving part actually felt like: "it was the whale" "wait what? how did the whale get here?" "dont worry about that. it was just The Whale"
the whale feels more like it was supposed to be interlude quest material, and i do remember a rumor that skirk was supposed to be in the later patches like 4.7 so maybe that is still the case and they just decided to pad it out with the abyss stuff in natlan?
munchies by The Whale 😭😭😭 yeah not only that but honestly why didn’t no one (NEUVILLETTE) actually investigate the origins of the stone tablets. like we found out the truth about it only because dain mentioned it in passing. it feels like the whole timeline is fucked up and everything comes out incredibly confusing
N/F has very solid ingame material that even dedicated harassers cannot deny, that's why they mostly focus on shippers' behavior and constantly stalk/attack Neuvifuri threads. I have no interest in debunking Twitter-contained yaoi delusions simply because I do not see it as "threat".
let’s not be hypocrites please lol “this character is being reduced to a MAN because they’re in a ship i don’t like and im mad about it” is a dumb excuse to try and make a ship you don’t like morally bad, people do it very obviously to nvfr but anon saying that they said it about a yaoi ship and the ~fujos~ attacked is the exact same thing, it makes us look stupid if we do the things we hate to other ships
oh yeah absolutely if you’re referring to my previous anon i think it was just “people don’t care if you “reduce” a character to a Man because this also happens in the most popular mlm ship and no one bats an eye”, so even if it were true its a silly excuse to use against nufu. i personally love hkvh but im not interested in them separatelly/as characters lmao 😭 so i can’t really be the voice of reason here <3
how often do you play gi
it depends tbh nowadays i play for like… 10 minutes a day? just doing my dailies and logging out (i need to start the event!!!). when there’s a big release (like map expansion) and i’m not “burnt out” even for a good few hours! i also really enjoy tcg so a lot of my time is spent in cat’s tail jrbfnffn
tbh i don't believe fontaine was rewritten, simply that they purposefully wrote the most self-contained story they could to mimic an opera. chapter 1 is "prelude of blancheur and noircheur" with the climax of chapter 5 happening in "the opera of noircheur and blancheur", and the first quest where we meet furina is "soloist's prologue" and the final quest of the series is "finale". the issue is less that the story was changed and is bad now and more that to begin with, it only ever focused on one point of fontaine's history and was hyperfocused on dealing with that. even most of the world quests have to do with solely the prophecy, or completely ignore it in favor of modern issues (which...honestly it kind of ties nicely into focalors' "continuation of that existence" when i think about lanoir, morticia/the gang, etc.). fontaine has a lot of unexplored history, partly due to being sunken, and also because most npcs don't give a shit unless to write folk legends about it. but it's still disappointing as a player because we had all these questions and interests that didnt get answered or acknowledged.
that thing about "sq2 being delayed due to sigewinne" thing tho, there were 2 things from sigewinne's SQ that i can understand needing to be tackled before the archon's sq2. the first is the end to the vacher/sinthe saga, and the second is the reveal that dissolved fontainian juice still retains special properties. and personally but i feel like aremori castle and "pools of pure water" the lochknights guarded could be coming up simply because...well we already have the north of fontaine but i dont see castle ruins or any oceanid birthing pools. and after 4.6 and 4.7 where they minimally mentioned the lochknights while focusing on the marechausse hunters...feels kinda suspicious but thats just me.
that makes sense honestly. i personally don’t believe it was completely rewritten but i do think something was done— either that or there’s just… badly written stuff lol. and i’m mostly referring to arlecchino and the whale. the whole whale/skirk stuff was so random and out of place when they could’ve just made arle the boss of 4.2 and the narwhal and skirk in a whole different patch. instead we get boss arle in a random inconsequential sq and the random lore drop about skirk in the middle of fontaine’s climax lmao
People don't have the energy because we know we are right. The harassment wouldn't be this bad if Nvfr was a nothingburger lol
“Reducing a character to just their relationship with a man” I complained that ppl do this to Kaveh and the fujo girlies JUMPED me for that and how I was wrong and dumb and ruining their fun because it’s all fictional! And then they proceeded to harass me, a real life person!
i want to say genshin shippers are insane but honestly i feel like since the pandemic (or the couple years before) fandom has become a place where fictional characters matter more than real people— because to them characters are real. they’re someone they see every day, they talk about them every day. and you, online person, are nothing to them, just a presence on their phone.
