*Who is your favourite character in Genshin Impact?* After watching all of the demos, and editing the entire video revisiting the characters for a second time... here's some of my favourites: Wanderer, Raiden Shogun, Arataki Itto, Yoimiya, Kamisato Ayaka, Kaedehara Kazuha, Eula, Xiao, Zhongli, Mona I've gotta say, looking back on it; I really enjoyed Wanderer's demo the best!
At the moment, two characters: Neuvilette and Capitano. (The first will release next week, and we don't even have a clue if the second will be playable).
Oh this is hard because I have fav chars based on the story and then fav chars on who I play as because there are chars I play that I haven't really interacted with yet in the game and then vice versa, I love a char's personality but I've yet to get them in game (or barely played them) so here's my list- Fav playable chars- Alhaithem (he'll probably be a fav once I get to Sumeru in the main game or do his story quests, whichever comes first), Fischel (fav bow user), Noelle (she's my tank currently and has a shield). Fav chars based on story and personality- Lumine (I know she's the player char, but the twins are the most mysterious chars in the game for me personally and I want to know more about them), Diluc (I want him so badly, I am sucker for male tsunderes, btw, he never got a char demo), Xiao (another char I want badly, he's so edgy, but as his demo hinted, there's a dark side to him), Shenhu (I got to try her out in a World Quest and man can I relate to her, yeah I hope to get her too someday), and Yae Miko (she just has this air of mystery about her and knows more than she's letting on).
Zhongli: Osmanthus wine tastes the same as I remember... *angrily switchs party member to be afk* Ayaka: A blade embraces its duty as a jeweler cherishes their gems *quits game*
For Lyney and Lynette, they’re actually twin siblings, though in lore, Lynette was born with a rare gene which is why she has cat ears and a cat tail, but usually they don’t come with a male and female when releasing a character, if anything, whenever a Main DPS character is released, they’ll usually also release a support that is specific to that character, for example Faruzan is actually a dedicated support character for Wanderer
Fun fact; They are currently working on a Genshin Impact anime! It's going to be made by ufotable!!!!! There is a concept trailer/teaser? idk what it'd be called as... you have to check it out too!
P.S. Zhongli is my ULTIMATE FAVORITE CHARACTER right now... though Neuvillette, who is coming out in like... four days? three days? Tuesday I think.... 4.1.... He's a shielder, his c2 (constellations are obtained by getting extra copies of characters) is great for co-op as it gives team members a shield. His shield scales off HP, so its best to build him with 48k+ hp. His c6(max constellation, so seven copies of a character to max out) makes him also a healer, as it heals you from taking damage. C3 and C5 on every character gives their skill and ult extra levels, three to be precise. I have a triple crowned (talents are leveled up to ten, with ten being a 'crown' because of the crown of insight needed to level them), max level 90, c2 Zhongli that I'm so happy with! ((wouldn't say proud of just yet, but getting there XD))
Just a quick heads up, there will be another character demo coming in a couple of days who is going to be a very important character especially in the story and very much in the games lore, I’d really recommend reacting to it when it comes out!
Love watching people react to Genshin and/or the characters for the first time. Baizhu and Neuvillette are my absolute favorites. Neuvillette's demo drops in a few days but he's already present in game and makes quite the impression.
Another Genshin demo reaction, and another to fall into the trap of thinking Venti is a girl... Also, Yae Mikos "dragons" are actually foxes xD Loved the reaction, keep up the good work! I hope you'll enjoy your Genshin journey! Just as a small note, if you haven't noticed already, every character is fighting with an element. There are 7 elements: Anemo, Geo, Electro, Dendro, Hydro, Pyro and Cryo
I seriously don't get how people keep mistaking Venti as a girl even after hearing his voice. It's quite obvious that it's a male voice, at least for me it is. I understand if they got confuse watching the jp dub but the en one is just too obvious. Makes me wondering do they even know what a girl voice sounded like😂No offense to the reactor
@@ahii_4u ironically for you, JP Venti is a male VA, and EN Venti is a female VA. But yeah, I agree, to me Venti just sounds androgynous but since I played the game before watching any trailers, I saw that he was a guy simply because Paimon literally asks the Traveler what that guy is doing in the first scene we see Venti
@@atriyakoller136 Yeaah, I very well do know who Venti's VAs are. And I must say, Erika did very well to sound like a guy, tho i can somewhat sense a bit of feminity in ventis voice line. So i guess that's y people aren't too convince that Venti is a dude besides his confusing appearence....maybe🤷♂️Anyway, i just know that Venti is a dude probably bcuz ive seen enough traps on anime that i can tell from a glance that venti is dude. I remember when i first started playing genshin, when i i first saw venti with dvalin i was like "wooah, is that a fkin dragon?!!and who the heck is that dude....is he some kind of dragon tamer?!". The dialogue from Paimon just confirms my suspicion.
@@ahii_4uits such a lucky coincidence that i look at historical outfit before Genshin release or even reading the manhua before. I saw the outfit and was like "yep, thats a dud" also his body is that of a boy, so i could tell the difference on first glance as well
Every character in the game uses one of seven elements (so far, anyway). You can tell which a character uses by the colour of their powers, and usually by a coloured gem that they wear. Some characters don't have them though. Anemo (Wind) - The teal-y green one. Geo (Rocks) - Yellow Electro (Lightning) - Purple Dendro (Plants) - Bright green Hydro (Water) - Dark blue Pyro (Fire) - Duh Cryo (Ice) - Bright/pale blue It's highly probable that two other elements will be added to the game by the end, but it's also probable that there will only be one character able to use each of those elements. But I'm personally also holding out hope for a character with no powers whatsoever, because I think that'd be interesting.
If you want to learn their skills you should check out the all the collected miscellany, you even get some tiny lore bits in all of them. EDIT: Fixed typo lost a heart :(
Don’t worry about pronouncing the names of the characters correctly the first time. Until the trailers come out the entire community is guessing what the correct pronunciation is.
@@alexgainsborough4921That’s because it’s a phonetic mess. Sometimes the roots have a Greek origin, sometimes it’s Latin, sometimes it’s Gaelic, sometimes it’s French, etc. Sometimes the root’s pronunciation is different from how it was originally said because the accents got all mixed up.
@@nerasomnia specifically, I'm talking about the inability of the language to record the sounds that make up a words, so that they are pronounced correctly. Even native speakers from birth, do not know how to read what is written in English: a perfect example is AVGN: there were many times when he saw the name of the game and said: “How is it pronounced???” - and gave three or four pronunciation options. There are letters in the language, their combinations that give certain sounds, there are - but it is impossible to write and read correctly...
Lynette, Diona and Kirara are cats Tighnari is a fennec fox Yae Miko is a Kitsune Gorou is a dog As for a favorite character, thats really hard to decide. Kazhua and Xiao are two of my 5* favorites, then Razor, Benny, and Chongyun are top three for my 4* favorites (they dont have their own demos but Chongyun was the boy in Shenhe's)
To be more specific Diona and Lynette are kinda HalfHuman, Half cats. Meanwhile Kirara is Full cat, She can take Human form cause she is Powerful Youkai but Kirara is a full Cat.
@@HarshitSinghRajputboth Diona and lynette are Kätzlein, Kirara is a nekomata, to distinguish, nekomata have 2 tails, long living lil kitties achieve youkainess Lyney also a Katzlein, but doesnt have cat charactereistics
Genshin 100% makes enough to have an anime and they are working on one. It might still be a while until we get it. They do have a two short anime style trailers you could watch if you were interested though. Trailer wise, Wanderer and Nahida can't be beaten but my favourite characters are Lyney and Venti
Each character has one of 7 elements that can react with each other to deal bonus dmg, Lynnette used air, and Lynne’s uses fire. So it will swirl the fire in. The air to deal bonus fire dmg and put more fire around enemies
You're one of the most chill reactor for these type of contents I've watched and I really love you pay attention to the video! I hope you have a lot of fun with Genshin! I enjoyed your video!
22:50 About that anime. There actually is going to be a Genshin anime and its animated by the gods at Ufotabke (guys who animate Demon slayer and animated some of the Fate series)
WAIT THAT'S CRAZY! Yes! I love Demon Slayer thus far, and we watched all of Fate and it's one of my favs. That's amazing to hear, definitely going to watch it when it drops.
Re: Shenhe's trailer, the other character there is named Chongyun and he has a condition that basically means he has an abundance of "yang" energy which is usually considered to be hot so he keeps popsicles to keep a lid on it. He and Shenhe are from the same family/clan of exorcists. She's an only child so she's not his aunt in the sense of being the sister of one of his parents but more like an older extended relation.
The thing about this game is that the story surrounds the adventures all over the world of Teyvat by the Traveler and you get to choose between a male(Aether) or female(Lumine) and each character has what’s called a vision which allows them to use any element and they are Anemo, Geo, Electro, Dendro, Hydro, Pyro, and Cryo. They also use different weapons, swords, polearms, bows, claymores, and catalysts. Right now, there’s 5 areas with two more on the way and the current areas are Monstadt, Liyue, Inazuma, Sumeru, and Fontaine. The two that aren’t released yet are Natlan and Schneznaya. Each area has an Archon, or god, of the element of that area, Venti is the Anemo Archon, Zhongli is the Geo Archon, Raiden Shogun is the Electro Archon, Nahida is the Dendro Archon, the Hydro Archon is named Furina, and the Pyro and Cryo Archons have not been released yet. My favorites are Raiden Shogun and Ayaka and they’re on my main team along with Zhongli and Kokomi
6:42 characters who show up in eachother’s demos are usually if they’re related, have combat/ability synergy, in-game interactions or well the lore lol 23:27 my mom thought wanderer was a ‘she’ so it’s funny seeing someone else make that mistake as well cuz it’s usually venti who people think is a girl or sumn i love ur reaction to wanderer cuz he’s my favorite character and i rewatched his demo quite a few times like rewinding n all too so i enjoyed ur reaction lolol 51:44 a kitsune/fox not a dragon 😭 1:21:37 when i first saw her, she reminded me of hanako kun from tbhk
you can play it on PC and Playstation as well. Wouldn't recommend a whole playthrough on phone. Most players use phone only to do dailies. Also, my fav characters are yelan and wanderer gameplay wise and albedo and zhongli story wise.
@@midnashadow8439 i never said you can't play on phone. It's just experience is not really the same. I am just gonna name two specific things that are not on phone, sand physics and school of fishes. Plus a lot of stuff from open world is also removed from phone. Simply teleport to purplish bluish forest region with huge glowing mushrooms area and look at grass and plants around road on both pc and phone to understand the difference. Genshin for sure is the best thing you can get on your phone but PC and playstation is where it excels as.
@@Verticyyou can play in all devices using the same account too, so if you play on a PC then you have to go out for a few days and can't use your PC, you can still continue your game progress using your phone. Very convenient.
For me the big four are Zhongli Raiden Shogun Kaedahara Kazuma Hu TAO Hope you enjoy Genshin brother. There are siblings, relatives...and also the elemental reactions of every visions.
@@ununun9995It's not that hard bro they do show how long has it been since video has been out not to he literally said new one came out 2 weeks ago to old one which came out 3 years ago so he definitely knew 0:38
Oh noooo its from newest to oldest again. Bruh they really should change that in their play lists. If you makr more Genshin vids make sure to check the order😅
Those gems with colors and a symbol are visions, visions let A person control one element depending on the symbol and color. They are giving to them by the gods as a was to tell them they are being favored
it's so funny that you say hu tao looks like megumi from konosuba, because they both share the same JP voice actress LOL. genshin knew what they were doing with that one.
1:14 and now hes gone 2:06 dang -- as long as its not on accident 5:55 YES THATS WHAT MADE ME PICK 13:15 im sorry Mika I'm still not used to it 16:20 hehe ; 16:27 fair fair 17:12 good assessment. 19:20 seeing the 4 of them interacting (and Kaveh's first laugh) were the final straw after occasionally seeing demos for over a year (Ads were Diona (first demo i fully watched), and Qiqi, silence, Kokomi's teaser months later, then last winter Alhaitham's demo was playing 21:04 hehe Xiao 21:22 AH NICE - now Xiao will make more sense if you remember 29:45 ah...best life... 33:50 hehe thought you'd mention the table scene from Haitham's demo 34:54 he'll be back soon and idk about meta HE'S MINE IF FURINA AND OTHERS LEAVE ME BROKE I'M SPENDING MONEY Hermanubis irrc 36:46 and from Kaveh's demo (Like no mentions yet about characters showing up in subsequent ones 37:57 I'm gonna assume you remember 41:29 even with 'Nari lol 42:10 Hehe i thought you watched anime 😂 43:49 nah, you cant even pet them 😅 43:58 the most recognizable hair though 46:25 the sneaky run-while-tying E-skill is what made me consider getting her this time, even more than experienced talking about her being a versatile S/SS tier sub dps So i said fuck it, I got Lyney but let's try Yelan too ...In like a month+ I got 3/4 banner characters all in one version Bc im crazy and lucky After I got Lyney and like 7 Bennetts I snapped 55:45 fair lol 57:32 the most confusing without game context : Visions and Adepti (I'm considering Itto yep) 59:05 Arataki Gang (ah no mention of Shinobu) 1:00:15 the resistance Wonder if youre realizing who Traveler is rn 1:01:45 I wanted to get Thoma but that would mean risking getting a 5-star I didn't want Watatsumi 1:02:25 Yeah imagine 1:05:12 better start playing because she'll be back uh...4.3? 4.2? You got at least a month. Maybe 2-3? 1:11:40 fingers crossed; 1:12:13 NO 😢 (and she said Kamisato art again to give you chance lol) Maybe I should just see these as separate videos and don't rhink too hard 1:13:45 actually thats good 1:14:10 I WANTED HIM SO MUCH IT WAS THE FIRST TIME I SPENT A LITTLE MONEY AND I GOT C1 NOELLE INSTEAD 1:23:18 now you'll have an example 1:23:24 see. Say it say it sir Which anime do you watch
Super reaction. I liked how engaged you were for every trailer. Subbed and hoping to watch your play through of Genshin. Zhongli, Yae Miko and Kokomi are my favourite/most used characters and I really like Nahida, Alhaitham and Kaveh.
There's currently 74(if I remember correctly) playable characters including the two new upcoming characters, Neuvillette and Wriothesly (their character demos are also coming soon as they are released on version 4.1). Some older characters doesn't have a character demo, Aether/Lumine (MC), Lisa, Barbara, Amber, Razor, Noelle, Bennett, Sucrose, Diluc, Jean, Chongyun, Xingqiu, Beidou, Ningguang, etc. I don't really know why they don't have it but, in my speculation, it might be because they are characters released on the launch day of the game. Character demo might've been a new way of Mihoyo/Hoyoverse for showing new characters' skills. It might've been deviced as a marketing strategy when 1.1 came. There are 5 weapons used in the game and other weapons that you will see used by characters will be categorized as one of the 5 weapons. There is Sword, Claymore (the bigger and heavier sword), Polearm (the spear and other spear-like weapons), Bow, and Catalyst (books and/or wand-like weapons used by people to release their magical power).
a few characters from release still had demos, but not all. And many early demos mostly show off team comps and reactions rather than just hyping up one character. Though I think some of the new ones end up a bit too much flash and no substance, like Dehya, who has a great presence in the main story, i great story teaser trailer, and then her actual trailer is just two minutes of punching? At least the olld all-combat trailers actually showed what the character did more or less.
@@dominicjannazo7144 I forgot that there were characters from release that had a demo. Thanks for reminding me. Thanks for the new information as well 😊
In English, her VA is Rem's VA, and Megumin's English VA is Ayaka lol EDIT - I made this comment before he got to Hu Tao and said she looked like Megumin, so sorry didn't realize it wasn't really super relevant with why you mentioned it in the first place.
genshin's an absolutely incredible game. there's easily 300 hours of free high quality content to enjoy. If you can control the urge to spend money on the game, highly recommend it to anyone.
35:06 this is Cyno, you probably said it as joke, but he isnt a God he is human, however it is mostly confirmed that he is in fact possessed by a God/Divine Spirit.
I think Gorou is designed as a Shiba Inu ^^ Edit: Qiqi is a Jiangshi aka a Chinese (Hopping)Vampire/Zombie Fishl summons Oz (the Bird) and her Ultimate she can "fly" around as him for a duration
yeh, the version trailers are really good, u should watch em if u wanna know a bit more of the game, in that case is better to watch from the oldest to newest instead
They actually are working on a show, and have a manga they pre released on webtoon back in 2017 to have people start wondering what genshin was. Genshins been in the works for a long time lol
Some of those characters are the deities ( god / goddess ) of the Genshin world. Although they are indeed strong and looks cool, their personality leave much to desire. They even becoming geshin meme.
this is the first time I watch someone who reacting to Genshin character demo and did not recognized who Aloy was and that she came from another video game. btw Hu Tao and Megumin share the same VA on JP
Great reactions! It's always so fun to see someone's first impressions of the game. Would love to see you react to all of the version trailers if you want a better sense of the story and how the characters fit into the world. Although it's best to watch those in order from oldest to newest.
my favorite character is sucrose, one of the few without a trailer lol. (she was mentioned in the beginning of albedo’s trailer but never shows up) i love her since day 1! 💕
57:07 what you just heard is Chinese opera or more specifically Beijing opera! It's very unique and it's very difficult to perform which is why it takes for a very skilled person to do. Unfortunately it is in decline today.
I have a lot of favorites: 1. Wanderer (love everything about him, his personality, his lore, and his development in game) 2. Neuvillette (waiting for his demo. Someone givehim a HUG. HOT) 3. Nahida (she is just THE BEST. She deserves all the happiness in the world ❤) 4. Furina (in the game, will be released in the future patches, PROTECTION) 5. Alhaintham (MY FEEBLE SCHOLAR, HOT) 6. Thignari (the best doctor and father figure for Colei) 6. Ayato (the best brother, the best clan leader. HOT) 7. Raiden Shogun (She is trying her best); 7. Zhongli (his voice, his lore and sadness. HOT) 8. Colei (protection all around); 8. ARATAKI ITTO (My bro, my guy, my dude. One the best VA for eng) 9. Lyney and his siblings, his twin Lynette and young brother Freminet. (Their stories are so sad and depressing) 10. Edit: Wriothesley (will be released with Neuvillette, his game play is cool, his design is cool, can't wait to learn more about him. HOT) Another edit: How could I forget my Boi Itto (lol) And another edit lol (Ayato) IF YOU DIDN'T NOTICE I LOVE HUSBAND IMPORTANT 😅
I'll be that person, In genshin, playable characters have 'visions'. You saw a green thingy on Kaveh's butt? Itto also mentioned his vision. They are trinkets filled with elemental energy, granted by the Gods to people with big ambitions. There are 7 elements in genshin; Anemo - a.k.a. wind Cryo - a.k.a. ice Pyro - a.k.a. fire Dendro - a.k.a. nature/plants Geo - a.k.a. stone Electro - well, electricity Hydro - a.k.a. water. There are also 5 weapon types; Sword Bow Spear Claymore and Catalyst (Like a magic book or similar) I hope that helps
out of all the amazing characters I mist say that Itto, Cyno and now also Neuvilette the newest character are my absolute favorits 💙 also- till this day I wonder what made Zhongli think that givin Itto a vision was a good idea like he went and created his own gang 💀😂❤️
I find it funny that you took Wanderer for a girl at first, out of all the characters people frequently mistake he's not one of them. But there's also people who have read Wanderer as a queer-coded trans man, due to (various character and story lore things) so IDK, cook if you want to. The youtuber "E" did a breakdown on how Genshin is full of queer-coded characters recently.
I love all the characters but My top Favorite characters are, Raiden Shogun Ayaka Kamisato Kokomi Eula Yoimiya Zhongli Shenhe Arataki Itto Yelan Kaedehara Kazuha (Not in this order)
