For "why is there a Destruction, what is there to gain from it?" There's an Aeon called HooH, the Equilibrium, who's one of the oldest and presumably most powerful Aeons that seems to have some sway over even the other Aeons and the overall state of the universe, keeping it in some sort of balance. Since Aeons like Harmony and Abundance exist, the Equilibrium demands that something like Destruction must also be present in the universe.

As you kept wondering why Nanook the Destruction wants to destroy the universe, this is the description of Nanook in the databank of the express in the game (an in game archive which explains everything about the lore) "If the increase of entropy is a fundamental law of the universe, then the heat death would be the inescapable destiny of the material world. So, why is it that we bother to struggle to survive? Expansion, fusion, and then annihilation. If we wish to welcome the new, then we must first embrace the end." - From a scientist just before pressing the button for nuclear detonation, 2152 AE The birth of the universe is a mistake. If civilization is a cancer emerging quietly from the boundless stars, then war is the only common language known to all intelligent life. To correct this mistake and to clean up this tainted universe, Nanook became the avatar of entropy.

Welt Yang is a main character of Honkai Impact 3rd but long after the end of Honkai Impact, he traveled trough a rift and changed universe to land in the universe of Star Rail ;)

An Aeon can also die and have their path completely consumed if their ideal is too close to a much stronger ideal that mirrors the same general concept. Just to give an example of how crazy some of the Aeons get, there is one known at Finality that was created at the end of time and has been constantly moving backwards through the flow of time until they reach the starting point of existence at the same moment time reaches its end, lol.

Some points of this video made you a bit of confused with its statements. She tried to not simplify the terminologies too much but you can easily dumb down these terms into these: Aeons: God (anything which somewhat has a mind can become one, Nouse is an Aeon made by a human "AI") Emenator: Prophet (Aeons give them a small portion of their power when they catch the eye of an Aeon "gaze upon to" as she said, there are some expectations at how people can become emenators. The Aeon of Nihility "nothingness" for example isn't really conscious but it is rather a black hole and anyone who gets close to it becomes an emenator as that Aeon "its name is IX" doesn't have control over anything.) Path: Religion (as said, the philosophy of the Aeon which the believers follow) pathstrider: Believers Imaginary Tree: Universe (it is a physical thing and not metaphoric thing. Everything is made out of the energy comming from it which is Imaginary Energy, like the matter of our universe) Sea of Quanta: The place where the universe is expanding on. Factions: cults of the religions. When aeons die their path still can exist as a religion wouldn't just end because their leader died. For a path to completely end it must lose all it's followers, either by getting wiped out in a war or them stopping to believe A person doesn't have to become an Emenator of an Aeon to get the blessing or power of an Aeon. There are some cases where we see an Aeons giving power to a pathstrider from another Path. For example Fu Xuan is a character which got her powers from the aeon of Erudition while she is a believer of the Aeon of the Hunt. Aeons simply can do whatever they want and if they see you fit to their philosophy they give you their blessings. Also emenators can share from the power they hot from the aeon to others too. There is nothing such as "the MC can't stay anywhere too long" i don't know where she get that from but the stelaron in the MC is stable and nothing will happen as long as nothing makes the stelaron in the MC unstable. Staying somewhere too long won't make the stelaron unstable though. Maybe she tried to say that if the stelaron becomes too unstable while they are somewhere it would cause trouble to that place but that doesn't make sense because they always stay somewhere and teh stelaron can become unstable any moment

25:20 There is only one Astral Express but it does not mean that without it people cant travel the galaxy. Astral Expresses role is to connect worlds, to put down the rails so to speak. Those paths can later be used by anyone who has the capasity to travel in space.

About the concert, you don't have to make a video about it, you could just make a live ont twitch, it would also make people able to explain where the musics playing comes from. But don't feel pressured or obliged, you content upload schedule is already crazy as it is, so don't overwork yourself !

A New boss theme boss came out I was certain it was going to be it so here : harmonious choir : the great septimus boss theme Also for the concert I wouldn't mind seeing it on twitch then drop the vod on patreon

Star Rail is a 10/10 game imo

Ashikai's genshin videos are amazing, I'm now seeing the history by her theories and recaps it is amazing

The HSR concert is honestly quite amazing, there are some songs that jump out that people can probably point you to with timestamps to just listen to, off the top of the head I can think of "Wildfire" "Pejudara" (?) and Monodrama, and whatever the hell Dan Heng IL's theme is called lmao, oh and both songs sang by Chevy, Sway to my beat and If I can save one life. (Typing this out this is probably half the concert at this point, oops)

You missed a bit out during the Welt explaination he's from our Earth meaning he's the only character that is from Honkai Impact 3rd that crossed over into the Star Rail Universe. If you want to know more about Welt you could watch "The Lore of Welt Yang" to find out how he ended up in Star Rail and why he's there. You could also watch "Honkai Star Rail History of the 18 Aeons" to learn about the others

Check out "hope is the thing with feathers", a song from HSR, "the end is a beginning" and maybe the 8th, 9th and 10th anniversary pvs from ggz. All of em are real short If ur interested, ggz also has specific songs representing each character. Bronya's is "angel of sin", mei's is "diva of disruptive world", and kiana's is "starlight map". The first 2 will probably sound somewhat familiar if you watched the animated shorts from HI3rd

There is one aeon per path. They're like the be all end all of a path, or the "god" of a path. The playable paths are basically just roles. Most of the paths attributed to playable characters don't match up to the paths that they actually follow.

You gotta realize that unlike in genshin where its just a bunch of gods in a single world, the Aeons are cosmic entities so the scale is unimaginably bigger. They could easily destroy whole planets. (One Aeon in particular is just a huge black hole). So yeah, not necessarily beings that you'll just find chilling on a planet and can be friends with. I'd say the archons in genshin are more similar to Emanators (those who were gazed upon by the Aeon of their path). Emanators are basically VIPs in their paths and their power are granted to them directly by an Aeon

Luke they explained, Welt slipped through time and space from Honkai impact verse and ended up into the StarRail verse only to be picked up by the astral express. Btw you could play Honkai Impact first cause StarRail references a lot from Honkai Impact it's crazy and developers were also said that honkai impact players would feel so much nostalgia from the starrails story which they did make it happen.

I would suggest you check out Welt's backstory from Homu Labs. It explains everything that you need to know since, Welt is the only character from Impact 3rd.

Ashikai is absolutely amazing!!! Her theories are always so well researched, they leave me mindblown ^^

Just do a live for the concert I think. It's really an absolute banger.

I like Homu Labs lore vids more they are more on point and funny even though he is mainly explaining Honkai Impact 3rd lore. He had a beginner's guide video for the Star Rail too with less views.

To give context to how isanely and incomprehensible an Aeons power is, let's just look at Aha the elation. Aha is basicly the god of fun, joy, all which fall under elation... and elation can come in many forms. So long as it brings joy or fun to you or others, anything can really be considered elation... Which is why as a joke, this Aeon casually decided to join another Aeon's faction (Funnily enough, that faction just so happened to be the astral express, which we're a part of) years back. The Aeon then stayed there for like a year undercover, and then suddenly casually BLOWS UP A PLANET WITH HALF THE EXRPRESS ALONG WITH IT. Basicly, an Aeon is a being that can casually destroy a planet if they really wanted to, and it wouldn't even take a fraction of their power to do so

Did you watch Robin’s trailer? If not then i’d definitely recommend that one!

Genshin Impact = button mash combat Honkai Star Rail = turn based combat This I feel is the biggest and most important difference in enjoyment for most as either battle style can be disliked by some

The video is 1 year old and looks like knowing of the Honkai Impact story is recommended to understand more deeply the lore of HSR. There are a lot of references that HSR mentioned from HI and there were some moments where characters were speaking about something, but you don't understand, because they speak abstractly, which you will understand only if you know the HI lore. Moreover, alternative universes were mentioned a lot inside the Honkai Impact, but there also were Houkai Gakuen 1/2 games that were predecessors. They share some same characters, but they are different, but they can have some similar basic story points, which means that there is also something like a concept of unavoidable fate points that will happen in some one or other ways. We have already seen some of those things in HSR with Seele, Bronya, Cocolia, Natasha(Raven in HI), and currently with Acheron (Raiden Mei). Also, for example, all games have one person who dies in all universes, without alternatives, so we can wait for something like that in HSR. It's important because the mentioned Welt comes from the HI world, knows about it and wants to save that person at least here. And one more thing, Welt comes into the HSR world not alone

Thanks for reacting to this. Part of the reason why this video is good is the LORE of HSR is good and it's deep and fun for those that like stories and faction/societal dynamics.

LETS GOOO ASHIKAI VIDEOS ARE AMAZING

Basically the main character (Trailblazer) can't settle down long term anywhere. If she/he did the stellaron would start to destabilize but it doesn't blow up like a bomb. It does OTHER things. Himeko and Welt are great at stabilizing stellarons so they are perfect companions for her/him. Stellarons tend to do things like open up destructive rifts, warp reality, tempt leader of factions or worlds to do horrible things in exchange for miracles etc. They don't work like grenades or A bombs.

Ashikai makes great lore videos. I always watch her Genshin Lore videos after I've completed the new patch content to clarify what I misunderstood or pickup what I flat out missed.

Damn man you are grinding the videos, plumping content non stop, hope you don't get burned out and have it impact on your reactions.

sadly enough there is no more free Dr Ratio o7 edit: allso love how there is persona 5 music in the back ground

For Welt, think back to the Imaginary Tree. Imagine if you jumped from one of the leaves to another.

We probably don't mind if it would be a live reaction or parted videos, but latest concert totally worth it!

Yeah the live concert reaction would be great!!

It is a game so the path part of 18 paths lore are for story. The 7 paths are main concept of game play, for example a character of Abundance path act as healer while a character of Preservation path act as shielder/tanker in term of game play. There are other paths which can be said like religion other than 7, they have ability suit their own path but not play able concept, example Fuli, aeon of remembrance path, his concept is memory, his faction is Garden of Recollection whose gathering memory of all world and living, Black Swan is one of this faction, she can read/collect memory of things but she playable character as nihility path as debuffer mage concept.

since I see a few people recommending it I quickly want to mention: if you react to ''Harmonious Choir: The Great Septimus · Boss Theme'' then you don't have to listen to ''Hope Is the Thing With Feathers'' because that song is part of the boss theme. you'll end up hearing the same thing twice if you do. also, don't listen to the EP version of Hope Is the Thing With Feathers if you're only gonna listen to that and not the boss battle (the full song is 3 minutes 50 seconds, while the EP is 2 minutes 56 seconds)

Wait, has he done any of the chalkeaters songs? I just thought it would be cool if he did the skyrim one, then the genshin one...then the mario one...then the-

I have a response to the grenade analogy. The main point here is that wherever you decide to stay for a long period of time, that one place would be more likely to go down with you and that would be selfish to instill that fate on to others without (worldwide scale) consent, in contrast to dealing with the situation when it happens while moving forward. This concept is strengthened with the idea that something, somewhere or someone might be able to help you deactivate the grenade, so its better to keep moving and search for a solution rather then hole yourself in a cave and wait to blow up, specially since you are traveling with "grenade experts" and they know you are not gonna blow up any time soon, at least not on your own with no provocation. To go more into game specifics without much spoilers: the two large groups that could be bothered by this potential explosive danger and know you have a nuke inside are the space station that don't mind you staying as long as you become a lab rat and the Express that want to help you solve the issue. Maybe in later installments we could encounter a planet that don't mind or are not bothered by that explosion threat and then we can ponder "why keep traveling if you can just stay here?", but because this is a....for lack of a better term, "Dimension Bending Nuke", it would be a highly unlike scenario without an ulterior motive.

Pros for playing Honkai Impact: -Deep attachment to the characters (Because fewer characters) -Established and voiced main character -More immersive Action gameplay (Devil may cry, Bayonetta) -There is no need to pull for characters to play the story because you are given trials of them when they appear -All parts can be accessed very quickly (Little to no level lock to progression) -An unending treasure trove of content (45 story chapters (Part 1), 7 character chapters, 4 open world stories, 22 Mangas with a total of 230 chapters, 3 animes with a total of 30 episodes, 3 visual novels with a total of 68 chapters, 3 concerts and biweekly events) -Story will leave you feeling the feels (especially as a father) -Music Cons for playing Honkai Impact: -Long (About 175 hours just for the 45 story chapters) (Double edged sword since a lot of content potential) -Only Japanese and Chinese voice acting -Text HEAVY (90% of the gameplay you'll do is reading) (Visual novel style) -Slow pickup -Non-interactive/no choices (pure cinematic experience) -Not really playable on mouse and keyboard (will need Gamepad, listing it as a con but I don't mind it) -Visuals look dated until later chapters Pros for playing Honkai Star Rail: -English voice acting (less reading) -Game is only 1 year old (Can catch up fast) -If you're into turn based games -Major events can always be accessed (not time limited) -Popular because it's recent -Music -Best visuals so far -Exploration is very manageable -Content outside of story is also very popular (rogue lite mode, pulling etc) Const for playing Honkai Star Rail: -Fraction of Honkai Impacts content potential -Will need to do some gacha -If you're not into turn based games -Story sometimes hit or miss -Character attachment lower because of regional system (Many characters across many regions) (Will become more of an issue once there is more characters) -Level locked story progression (Better than Genshin, worse than Impact) -Semi-silent Main character Both are stellar games. Personally I prefer Impact's story, especially the character development since there's really only about 25 characters. I hold it in higher regard to most anime I've watched even if it mostly is text and still frames. However for a new player who's not accustomed to visual novels, I can't recommend Impact over Star Rail. Star Rail is currently more relevant and popular and because it's quite young, it's definitely possible to catch up to when starting now. For a content creator, Impact's abundance of content is definitely marketable, but Honkai Impact chapters become quite long, and I don't know how satisfying it will be for viewers and yourself to split a single chapter into too many parts. Star Rail in that regard manages to kind of make story chapters manageable to stream in one or two sittings. tl;dr: As for which one you should play first - The heart says Honkai Impact, The brain says Star Rail

I would love to see you play Star Rail

I recomend you the new Sunday boss fight song "EP: Hope Is the Thing With Feathers" from the offcial HSR channel

25:50 It is, that's why the ones who aboards the express is usually to stay and continue traveling the worlds, that's why they become the nameless

She miss informed you on the Aeon of trailblaze, since it only said they disappeared, not died.

I love Ashikai I watched all her videos

YOOOOOO ASHIKAIIIII!!! One of our beloved Hoyoverse lore theorists, she has tons of lore videos that you could watch, both with and without spoilers. Some proven to be true, some remain headcanon yet still intriguing nonetheless.

cant wait for the hsr concert reaction

It could be clarified that Nanook is more of an embodiment of entropy rather than destruction in the usual sense, be it blowing up a building for a purpose or breaking a thing for a show of force Accordingly, his way is simply to accelerate the entropy of the universe by any means necessary without any benefit or thought of "what's next" Basically aeons are not individuals even in the full sense but mostly embodiments of the concepts they represent, aeons are still able to think and make decisions but only within the framework of their concepts, the rest just doesn't exist for them. Also killing an aeon is not killing it as a living being by some powerful force (as an aeon is no longer a living being in the full sense), but taking the very concepts it embodies out of its path and absorbing them into other aeons with similar paths or completely destroying them, if possible. So the killing of an aeon can be compared to the destruction of a religion, only on a cosmic scale

Paths cliffnotes: Paths are wells of imaginary energy that are bound to a specific philosophical concept. Aeons are the master and embodiment of their respective paths. People who follow a path are called pathstriders and those who catch the gaze of their aeon can be granted power by them and become an emanator. Factions are groups of people who follow a specific path but some factions can sometimes deviate from or go directly against their respective aeon. Paths can still exist even if an aeon is dead, like how the nameless can still access the power of the path of trailblaze even though Akivili is gone.

welt in star rail is the same welt from honkai impact, he crossed dimensions and got picked up by himeko and the express. there are a lot of easter eggs from impact in star rail, but that's most of the connection between the two games.

if i had to guess nanook the aeon of destruction wants all life to end to reduce the amount of chaos in general. being a being of imaginary energy from the imaginary tree he probably wants there to be less chaos wherever possible

Very well done Video. How about doing the Honkai Impact 3rd Guide next?

20:47 she literally said that he got into some portal that transported him to this universe

Welt came from the Universe of Honkai Impact 3rd, yes he originates from Earth, but not the Earth in Star Rail if there even is one

20:00 welt is from a different universe. His comic shows him literally going through a portal/rift where he ends up in the star rail universe. You know its a different universe because Himeko is dead in the Honkai Impact universe.

Nanook acsended in a world destroyed by Swarm, he saw most brutal forms of war and strugle it gives to mortals. So he believes, that existence of various creatures is meaningless if it could bring only strugle and pain, and destruction of everything would free everyone. Also Aeon can't change Path, THEY are the master and a slave of Path at the same time. Also connection between stellarons and Nanook don't have evidence (for example, stellaron can stop invasion of Antimatter Legion), it is just asumption.

14:45 Wait, it's kinda make sense, so why didin't the Destruction merge with the Nihility, like the Order did with Hamony? Or does the fact that this didn't happened proves that there is way more to the Destruction than what we know?

Hsr lore is actually unparalleled imo... But u will see only if u play through it. I will not spoil anything,this is just a little more about the game: they play a lot with philosophical ideas, and all known aeons being embodiments of certain concepts (destruction, harmony, nihility...) makes for very interesting interactions, both between the emanators of their paths and main characters, and also main characters and aeons themselves! Hsr has multiple endgame modes where you encounter eaons and get a chance to talk to them and also a lot of other creations. It also has a main story, story drivers of course and really good world building. It has multiple organisations,political plays... Your story begins in a space station but you get to travel to different worlds with the express crew and connect all the worlds and experience history in the making. U saw that the trailblazer (main character) is actually with the express crew because: the crew already knows how to take control over a stellaron disaster in case it happens (btw, stellaron wont be exactly like a nuke, but more like a disaster nuke - different kinds of terrible things come to be, its not necessarily an explosion) so they travel with the crew who can handle it and also because the astral express is where they got "left" or "abandoned" to be:) In my opinion you would enjoy the game even if u play it off of work just in ur time. Its high quality. Wish u good luck and all the best ❤🎉

You should react to the new character (Robin)'s 3 music videos, Sway to my Beat, Hope is a thing with Feathers and If I can stop one heart from breaking.

The Imaginary Tree and the Sea of Quanta are multiversal+ , metaphysical constructs containing bubble universes that vary widely in size, from a hill with a tree to entire star systems. Traveling between them requires a massive amount of Imaginary Energy or Honkai energy. In _HI3_ , there is some technology capable of opening portals into the Sea of Quanta, and the Divine Key _Cosmic Juggernaut_ , which is also a train, can be used to look into or travel to them as well. The Herrscher of the Void has sovereignty over space, and so can travel through Imaginary Space. However getting to the Imaginary Tree and retaining your own will is far harder. _Thus Spoke Apocalypse_ depicts the end of Otto Apocalypse doing exactly that, and he needed Bianka Ataegina and Kiana Kaslana to attack him with all of their power to even get there, let alone resisting becoming the Imaginary's slave when he touched the Tree (like the numerous versions of himself who failed, and who he had to fight). Apparently in _GGZ_ , one of the god-beings there killed Zeus and created the Imaginary Tree from his corpse. Being the one responsible for the creation of the Honkaiverse, you can imagine this individual being extremely powerful. Thanatos is that, however there's also more above her, including an author avatar who can make anything at all happen. These beings are so powerful they could destroy the multiverse by rolling over wrong in their sleep. And you do _not_ want them to wake up.

Think of the "Imaginary" energy as an actual harnessable energy. And they just call it Imaginary, because they don't exactly know what it really is other than it's the same type that make up the force holding the universes together like branches on a tree. Hence the name "Imaginary Tree."

for the next Honkai Star Rail reaction, you can check out Robin's trailer the new weekly boss OST: Harmonious Choir: The Great Septimus · Boss Theme (I recommend the 11 minute version from Pom-Pom's Workstation channel, otherwise you can listen to the 8 minute version)

27:01 you couldnt really mistake an Aeon for a mortal. They are quite different. For instance, one of them is just a Black Hole.

SR looks like open world because it's early builds were made off the engine for HI3rd mode called... Drumroll... "Open World" (badum-tss).

he didn't watch the your color trailer right im not tripping right?

Waiting for Star Rail concert reaction. If you want you can cut it for several videos, but i`m think you coudnt stop watching it))

The concert is WORTH IT MARK MY GOD DAMN WORDS!

Yooo when r we gonna get some lore reactions for fate specifically how shirou became a counter guardian by aninews

Welts lore is amazing

hope is the thing with feather next

The thing about Honkai impact and honkai star rail is that eventhough it is called differient universe. Ingame lore had depicted that the so called each leaf in the imaginary tree being an universe is actually not true. As they are rather solar system rather than unuverse. Meaning that HI3 is set on Earth and the solar syste.. And HSR is about traveling through diff worlds.. Aka they travel to diff solar/star system so.. They are dirrctly connected.. So is genshin.. (Which sits in some random area in a vast immeasurable universe). So eventhough it is connected.. The chance of them interacting id low.. About as low as choosing 1 planet among trillions and trillions of planets and selecting one that they reside on.

no one path have multiple aeon. but some path have “almost” the same outcome. FOR EXAMPLE: - path of “Destruction” aims the destruction of everything. to quote duke Inferno “everything exist to be destroyed” - the path of “Nihility” believes everything that exist will and should end in nothingness (possibly by the embrace of IX/Aeon of Nihility). - path of the “Hunt” believes in the act of revenge and most of the time the ending of the target is a total destruction (which in a way contributes the goal of Destruction) - path of “Finality” believes everything that has a beginning has an end including the universe itself.

You need to listen Robin song and boss battle Sunday, and watch the cutscene too, that so cool bro

You should check out the Honkai Star Rail song “Hope is the thing with feathers”. It’s a great song and only came out a few days ago. P.S. the concerts should do well for views, don’t underestimate the hoyo community lol

I kinda understand Nanook's mindset a bit. If there's no existence, its also there is no suffering in this world. Is just kinda a extreme mindset yo get rid of suffering altogether.

Something I want to correct. The Trailblazer does have a past before the start of the game. It is just vague and obscured. It is just their memories have been altered with the only thing remaining is bits and pieces of the past with Kafka. Funny enough, it is heavily implied that Kafka and Trailblazer had a romantic connection before the memory wipe imo. (via references like the red string of fate/destiny to romance novella/romance opera, dialogue in game, etc)

concert is kinda hit or miss; there are select songs featured in those concerts that are pretty good though I'd suggest specifically live action wildfire, live action space walk, and the fan animated music video "Funny Bone" which is an unconfirmed character origin story

Just answering a few of your questions: Every path has an Aeon. But as said in the video, the trailblaze path's Aeon, Akivili is dead. So there are paths that used to have an Aeon and maybe now they don't. Currently, 7 Paths can be played in the game. While the others, may or may not be playable in the future. Who knows? Out of all the other trains in the railway system of Akivili, the Astral Express was the only one train left that was found and fixed by Himeko (the boss of Astral Express). The railway is still there, but the other trains are lost and probably broken with Akivili's death. So the Astral Express is the only one that can use the railway system made by Akivili. The trailblazer (us as players), is like a time bomb. But the nameless (those who board the Astral Express and travel across the universe) have experience in dealing with stellarons (the bomb inside our body). So if someday we decided to blow up, then they are there to handle it. Also, the trailblazer was just created by Kafka and Silver Wolf out of nowhere and leaves us confused with no specific goals or purpose. Traveling with the nameless on the Astral Express can give us some sort of goal or purpose that we can find. Those two are the main reasons we as a player travel on the Astral Express.

There is a back story about the Nanook in the game, so play it and know more hahahaha

To add context, the Stellaron is just a concept of a bomb since it's stable in the Trailblazer's body but its effects are mostly fracturing reality creating monsters, changing environment. 26:35 - Aeons are the masters of the path. Only 7 are playable but 18 are in game. It doesn't mean that it will stay at 18 since AEONS can be made or evolved into if you have a concept and commit to that concept. Since concepts can overlap, it's also one of the reasons why AEONS can kill each other and take over their path. For example Propagation, Beauty and Abundance have similar concepts. Also Destruction and Nihility has overlapping concept too.

You should try reacting to the characters' ultimate animations.

Two characters, actually. Acheron's backstory is essentially the lore of Honkai 3rd Part 1. So if you've played Honkai 3rd, it's a LOT easier to understand Acheron.

Thanos would follow the path of Equilibrium. Idk if HooH would gaze at him tho.

I really recommend video by either Homu Labs or SiliconOneFour on Welt’s history and story before Honkai star rail. He is the goat in Honkai Imapct 3rd

I do wanna make a slight ammedum on something they said: Akivili is not dead. Akivili is missing. Those are two very different things. You can consider Akivili dead but that isn't accurate. (It's also my theory that March is Akivili, but that's just a theory)

Sadly, I've given up on Twitch. The ads every 15 minutes is the biggest turn off. So I look forward to your VODs on RU-vid. If you decide to stream the concert as a watchalong, I hope you decide to upload the VOD here so I can see how much you enjoy it. As a warning, MiHoyo has gotten pretty darn good at putting on an entertaining concert. Musically, you will be sated, but until you play the game, a lot of the extra bells and whistles that go on in the concert will go over your head.

Before you start playing, Fair warning, it is a very dialog intensive game. Amazing story and characters, but a lot of dialog.

You can think of Imaginary as Creation.

definitely ur gonna enjoy star rail more. HSR is difficult to get into this late. hsr is still young (1 year old)

IF U HAPPEN TO HAVE TIME EVER, HSR CONCERT IS PERFECT

You should check out IslandXD's stuff. He's an incredible reactor and theorycrafts the entire Hoyoverse. His main focus in the past tends to be Genshin, but he's extremely well versed in HI3 and HSR as well (as well as many other gacha games, including Arknights and Reverse: 1999).

big dawg if you do the hsr concert that came out i will die

Do the new Honkai star rail boss theme. Specifically third phase or “embryo of philosophy” theme. Generally lots of bangers in the new patch

for the question Star rail or Impact 3rd: Star Rail is a turn based game, where as Impact 3rd is a high action game with heavy reliance on dodge mechanics and timing. Honkai Impact 3rd also only has a single male playable character that is generally hated by the fanbase.

concert is amazing

When they said welt is from earth they were refering to his universes planet. welt is not from this universe but the honkai impact universe. As stated he came here from his universe during a crash, we do not know where his friends are or even if they travelled here with him. When welt ran into himeko he understood that this is not HIS himeko and that this is a different universe with similar looking people. As pointed out last week you've already seen bronya and seele from their trailers luocha who looks identical to Otto from HI3 and some Acheron who is the EXPY of Raiden Mei. Given there is also a raiden shogun in genshin and some other characters who share similarities with both of these dimensions it cam be noted that rather mihoyo is getting lazy and copy pasting or that ALL these worlds are part of the imaginary tree. As stated at the start that the leaves of the tree are each a universe in themselves. Welts lightcone in game and his cane are actually referenced as being one of the 13 herrscher relics from HI3 which adds more light to the fact that welt is still connected to the honkai even in this universe so the odds of us getting some more connection to HI3 and Star rail are possible in the future.

I don't understand where's arlecchino's weekly boss theme reaction

Himeko, the lady with red hair isn't abundance btw, she's erudition, but in her lore she's more tied to the path of trailblazing (our own faction), while the characters have a path they're assigned to for gameplay purposes, they do not follow that path themselves always, some of them then again do. Another example is Jing Yuan who very much follows the Hunt: Lan but is erudition (I don't particularly know why they chose that for him since hunt is also playable). Sparkle is a follower of Aha, the Aeon of elation, but considering elation isn't a playable path she got stuck with harmony. Every path usually has a role it's designed for or fulfills, like destruction usually being high damage dealers that use their own HP as a resource, harmony being supports that provide buffs, abundance being healers... etc etc And yeah Star rail is a great game, it plays a bit like Persona/Pokemon because of its turn based combat, it's not as grindy as Genshin and is a "bit" more generous with giving the premium currency, it is quite playable F2P or low investment imo. This game is also hilarious, it's incredibly self aware at points and has references to memes and other great pop culture, you can decide to be a dumbass in conversations and the npc's will just look at you like "what did you just say???"

Please react to Robin character demo and her Album EP Songs “Sway to my beat in cosmos” “Hope is a thing with feathers”

To have a better understanding of how paths work: Imagine if this channel was a path- All your followers and subscribers across all platforms would the pathstriders The people you communicate directly with like your mods would be the Emanators And you'd be the Aeon

I may be a part of the vocal minority, but I would actually really love to see you react to the Honkai: Star Rail concert!
