Story Teaser: La vaguelette | Genshin Impact 

​@dontgotomypage4072nah, another bot bro

I'm gonna get flak for being a downer, but no, Furina is still not a "good ruler of a nation". That was never her job, nor was she ever fit for such a job. Furina is a hero to Fontaine, worthy of the respect of an Archon, but she is not one, yet she should be treated with the respect of one like Zhongli, Raiden, and Nahida say so. I suppose the reason I'm so caught up with this is because if I were in Furina's shoes, like hell I'd want someone to think I'm a good ruler, I'd never want to do that again.

And don't forget shes a mortal/human being When she's playing the role with human emotion! No one can't handle such emotion like her definitely earn the best archon alongside nahida

yes it is her job to rule a natioon, archons are ALWAYS refered to as "leaders" of a nation. Deos that mean they make every decision? No. Does that mean they need to make a majority of decisions? No. Furina had final say in everything.@@draaxus2969

A really great and well written character, shame her fans really miss the point of her character in the story. She was never meant to be the archon, she was meant to be a human that is capable of achieving great deeds. Selfless actions that saves other people at the cost of her own life, even for the people who are against her, and the determination to do it for 5 centuries

And a hug. Cause....I am not sure that this person is doing well if they can create that kind of backstory XD

Sounds true enough to me! XD yeah and the people who write depressing vocaloid songs and stuff

​@@forgetfulfenrir3966🥶

Thank you. My depression has become the most powerful weapon

cold pillows for life ❤️

wow, that's really cool!

The video is really proof that we have a Creator.❤️ If Genshin Impact is made by artistic people, how much more real life? The amount of detail in our universe (from an atom to a galaxy) is astonishing! I applaud the developers of Genshin Impact - they truly are gifted by our Creator (God); the inventor of the human mind.😌

@@Our-Creator-Loves-Us I applaud how you people shoehorn your religion into everything at the tiniest chance you get.

@@snappishorc6656 It’s what our Creator (God) wants us, as His followers, to do (Mark 16:15). Why would we want to disobey the Creator of the universe? Let me share a story with you: Imagine you have a friend who lives in a dangerous neighborhood, and you hear that a robber is planning to break into his house. Wouldn’t you call him and warn him? Of course you would, because you love your friend and you don’t want anything bad to happen to him. That’s how we feel about preaching the gospel. We know that Christ (God) is coming back very soon to fix our dangerous world, and we don’t want anyone to be caught off guard. We want everyone to be ready for the Rapture and meet Christ with joy and peace. God bless you @snappishorc6656. Know that it's not too late to accept Christ - He's just a prayer away.

@@Our-Creator-Loves-Usewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

That's awesome 👍

Good❤

I did the same with my mom, and she LOVED furina design mainly her Eyes, she said " her eyes are so beautiful but looks like she cried a sea of tears" indeed I said, and tell her a resume of Furina/Foçalors drama, she found it very heartbreaking.

This comment warmed by heart ❤ thank you for sharing this.

你母亲真的很棒👍🏻 it is awesome

I’m looking forward to her second story quest

Imao

They took the Raiden route with her, that is really good..

She really deserve more more more then a vision, she deserves to be respected as an archon, but I am also very happy at least she got freedom, and get to live as her true self finally. Looking forward to her 2nd stroy quest, she just deserves more.

I really hope she can become a god again. Even if not as the hydro archon, at least the god of justice

She maybe is foçalors but without the powers of a god and only a normal human but she has my respect.

​@@buffedsans8761So now, who is the hydro archon?. Furina received her vision in her story quest. But it doesn't explain who is the next hydro archon.

@@saitama1999There will be no hydro archon. Focalors destroyed the hydro divine “throne” and gave hydro power back to Neuvillette

@@capicapiol she still deserve to be an archon. I may be wrong here. But she cared for everyone. It is enough.

There just won't be another one. The hydro archon throne is gone. This is setting the stage for celestia, they are definitely not happy with an archon defying them@@saitama1999

I was just thinking about how they said that Mondstadt will be added to. I hope they add a German song or more things that seem uniquely German and not just European.

@@StephanieDraconia yeah I hope so too. Mondstadt’s dancer does a dance from Spain and it would be nice to see one form Germany. Maybe Venti the German performer we’ve been lookin for this whole time.

I wouldn't mind it so long as it fits and enhances the story. It'll be pointless to add music in native just for the sake of having music on native

@@kapeecoffeeagree

Maybe for Venti's second story quest

Even Ei admired her will and compare hers to that of a god

perhaps not the absolute smartest, but one of the strongest willed

I think looking at her intelligence might be missing the point a bit. Nahida, Dottore, or even her counterpart of Focalors all make her look pretty dumb by comparison. But she has amazing acting skills to deceive an entire nation, and impressive willpower to stick to the act, no matter how painfully lonely it got.

I wonder if Nahida knew Furina wasn't an archon when she talked about her after the sumeru quest? 🤔

@@lowliethxd1471 I don't think so, if she did, Celestia would also know

Idem je suis contente ! La chanson devient presque drôle, certains mots ne veulent rien dire ensemble ça fait comme une métaphore.

J'ai été sacrément surpris

@@LJapan4 Pourtant ca fait typique des vieilles chansons françaises, je trouve pas en quoi c'est drôle ?

maintenant faut vraiment une version vf du jeu

Hoyoverse has a lot of respect for different cultures and it shows, in how they weave the story around certain countries, religions and folklore. The song was great.

she hit both wallet and feels.

Except the archon quest. 7/10 bad ending

@@simpayshenaides L opinion ngl

@@erischan08vii19 Really this whole archon quest of fontaine to you is great? LOL. The archon quest itself is an L

@@simpayshenaidesThe archon quest was amazing wdym. What was bad about it? I'd rate it better than the Sumeru one.

It almost feels like it was not an act, but, a memory long forgotten... could it be that she is recovering her memories of before the split?

@@guarana-suquinhothis is fr a good theory, what if Now that foçalors is dead, The memories that the god experienced simply went to the most familiar place to them, aka furina, since shes foçalors human counterpart. I really wanna see a headcanon of that that’d be so cool

woah. kudos.

Does the term thst Furina said before, “Pearls before swine”, apply in this context as well?

​@@mystery8820 You know how when someone does something amazing and some people would go "OH MY GOD I LOVE YOU!!! MARRY ME!!!" Do they really mean it? If you bent down on one knee they would almost always say they were joking. Such is the case of Furina saying "Pearls before swine." Shes simply exaggerating because its a habit she's gotten from playing an act for 500 years. She probably meant to say somethinf like "You're annoying" in the most dramatic way possible.

Well it's because she is responsible for Poisson - in her act we are shown that she was so used to her routine and drained empty that she shruged off all warnings about Poisson and thus didn't order evacuation when she could. Remember when Hydro Dragon has shown her a list od casualities? He kicked her out of her role for a second and we can see how terrified she was realising what just happend. Not to mention that he knew about her investigations and monitorings so propably suspected that she knew beforehand.

frr

i love how all the other archons are in awe about what she did aswell in their voicelines about furina/focalors

@@AyumiDreemurr Yeah! Furina may not be an "archon" in the technical sense now, but if she gained the respect of ACTUAL archons for what happened...it seems like she'll be invited to take a seat at the table with them regardless.

I was one of those people who find her an annoying archon.... But then after the 4.2 archon quest everything changed.... This proves that she acts so well that even the players believed in her facade as an archon ....

​@@EarthJenYeah , even all the Archons including Zhongli the oldest of them all was flabergasted and in awe on what Focalors has done, destroying a Hydro Archon Throne of Heaven instead of Gnosis is the most direct middle finger to Heavenly Principles and the system she created. If there's someone that can make Heavenly Principles mad for this 500 years since Khaenriah, that person would be Focalor.

Exactly this. She really could have just enjoyed her life with someone and telling that person everything, but that would mean facing the worst ending, which is Fontanians dying. She cared more about the future of the people than her own desires. She really deserves the best now as a true human.

Her responses to the troupe members also show she would've been an excellent archon had she not been forced to play her role up. Stepping in to direct a theatre production is a difficult task, yet Furina showed great leadership skills despite her reluctance. She was only ever "useless" because Focalor's plan required that she not actually know how to counter the prophecy

She made the right choice, if she revealed it to the Traveler, he/she would have leaked everything to the rest of the courthouse right afterwards, dooming the whole plan

The video is really proof that we have a Creator.❤️ If Genshin Impact is made by artistic people, how much more real life? The amount of detail in our universe (from an atom to a galaxy) is astonishing! I applaud the developers of Genshin Impact - they truly are gifted by our Creator (God); the inventor of the human mind.😌

Since Furina took over as archon before Focalors was announced to the people. She’s basically been ruling this entire time. Neuvilette helped out but it wasn’t like he knew anything about humans at first.

probably ufotable make this, idk is so good

Yes! the animation is so smooth… and the story quest felt like the perfect thing we needed after the archon quest. I’m so glad things ended well for furina… Isn’t the style also amazing? I don’t know about you but when I first saw this art style in a quest or event I had though it was a little too cartoonish, and quite strange, but now, its completely grown on me… Its so beautiful.

​@@ooz506we have no way to confirm that but I'd like to believe the animation team responsible for genshin impact just got better.

​@@ooz506it's hoyos animation team i think. Also they get paid better then mappa animators.

But she wanted so _badly_ to be able to save them

yea, still hurts me though that the whole her that split into halves had to suffer so much

I also like how Focalor reacted to Furina's choice. And how Furina's personal opera showed how much she was ready to give up on for this world. I want to give her hugs and blankets.

Furina in general suffered. Furina is also Foçalors since she admitted that to deceive the world she must first deceive herself (Furina) by admitting that they are the same person. In fact, Furina was born knowing about the prophecy when she spoke to the mirror to Foçalors, proving that Furina is also Foçalors, but it nullified her powers and much of her memories. So Furina, even though she is not human, would be the most normal human of all. The prophecy represents the flood of the bible, even the ship of wriothesly represents noah's ark. In that sense Furina/Foçalors represent Jesus. A sacrifice, the hatred of the people in exchange for an act of salvation.

Think that if you have Furina in the Banner you have a dam jesus reference as character.

So now, who is the hydro archon?. Furina received her vision in her story quest. But it doesn't explain who is next hydro archon.

Same

Your a girl right

For now

same energy

Fr 😭😭

From which video each of those moments, care to share it?

@@raifikarj6698 For Ganyu, it is near the end of her character teaser. For Hu Tao, it is near the end of her character teaser. For Kokomi... it is also near the end of her character teaser. I think I see a pattern here now.

Could not have said it better. She may not be a real Archon but she deserves that title.

this really touch deep in my heart

well she is still god focalors, but doesnt retain the god powers, thats all

let me just casually throw in a brag

Fontaine story is not over yet

It's even worse when you think that after 500 years of acting the way of someone, you forget who you used to be and that person you acted as somewhat blurs into your real self. Y'know?

@@eleden3356 And the nail in the coffin must be near the end where she thought that after the endless and painful 500 years it was all for naught. I can't imagine the pain that must've struck her at that point.

Well, if you read her character story. After the Archon quest, Furina moved out immediately to a simple apartment. 500 years acting plus what happened at the court may have given her depression, girl lost the will to tidy her room, shut herself in, eating macaroni day by day thinking didn't "free" means being someone who no one needed? Even Clorinde was shocked to see Furina states when she paid her a visit, and wanted to take Furina in, but she refused.

even nahida talk to her people trough dream ei, she chose to be alone but furina she forced to be alone, she has endure it for 500 years 😢

​@@kolapsg7748Yeah but Ei was a meditative isolation to stave off Erosion, aka loss of memories, sense of self and bouts of explosive anger over this. Furina didn't have any of that and kept acting as how the Fontainians thought an Archon should act for 500 years......and she was able to not lose her normal self as a humble girl that just wanted to experience the world. Heck, this now recontextualizes all the moments when she spoke to herself and we saw it, she doubled down because that was what people expected of her act.

Wait its a cutscene? How come i dont remember seeing it. Its a cutscene for which quest?

@@Wolfy-pw2pyit’s from her story. Available since Monday I recommend you to do it. It was immensely moving.

@@jggmorillo Aaah yea i haven't done that yet. Thanks

Je suis très heureux que hoyo a décidé de collaborer avec une chanteuse française pour Furina, cette chanson est vraiment magnifique. Les paroles m’ont rendu ému 💙💧

Is this an old French song?

uh isnt the only development she got is being depressed in the aftermath? shes already peak the moment she choose to play the role

​@@kkkkkkk6668No, her development was being able to put the mask off and being able to live as a true human rather than a god. Being depressed was the consequence of 500 years of keeping everything to herself and her story quest shows that she still finds meaning in acting and wants to, at the very least, be involved with it, thus giving her a new purpose.

@@kkkkkkk6668Her depression comes from her being unable to quit her act(or everyone else dies) and not having anyone to share her burden. Now that she isn’t considered in power anymore(the fontainians think she sacrificed her archon power to power the oratrice),she doesn’t need to put on a mighty act.Now Furina can be herself and do what she wants.She,although hesitant due to her 500 years masquerade,still likes acting.

True

Agreed

Omg I relate

Same

Real

Facts

So now, who is the hydro archon?. Furina received her vision in her story quest. But it doesn't explain who is next hydro archon.

There is no Hydroarchon anymore as the position of the hydroarchon itself was destroyed. Now Neuvilette is the defacto ruler of Fontaine, though he is not the archon. This makes Fontaine the first nation to be ruled y its corresponding elemental dragon.@@saitama1999

​@@saitama1999Neuvillette is the Archon for the timebeing, he said so when ur talking "About Future of Fontaine" with Neuvillette at the end of the whole quest

​@@a-passerby full hydro sovereign*

screw Vacher. seriously.

Fortunately(?) I was already quite sick before I started playing, but yeah the AC quest left me with an extra pit in my stomach :,)

Indeed, it's how realistic it is that really hurts when I first played this part of the AQ as someone that watches True Crime documentaries. It's so sad that the diary was never found early despite it having key details that would solve the case, and this can happen irl. It's sickening what Vasher did, and I'm impressed at how well Hoyo portrayed that

@@laikeree_4213omg yes. Especially about that part about true crime- listening to the part where they read her notes out loud is so depressing because it just reminds me of all the real life “ Aurelies “ that we know from podcasts and documentaries. Some of which have yet to be solved. At least this story quest got some closure…

So now, who is the hydro archon?. Furina received her vision in her story quest. But it doesn't explain who is next hydro archon.

Genshin is Hoyoverse's peak of popularity. Honkai series are not even close

​@@donutchocolate1515how about hsr? more profitable than genshin and more concurrent player base on discord alone

@@xMig27x because it is new game and it came out after genshin. honkai is like a typical game for nerd and wibu, not really has that mainstream popularity. but since genshin out, hoyoverse has been widely known among public, literally the biggest game in 2020 and 2021. even if genshin die out of popularity, honkai series will never get the same popularity. not too mention..open map is really a popular mechanic.

hsr still hasn't earned nearly as much as genshin did when it first came out. it is only more profitable when you look at current sales and genshin still has more players than both the honkai games combined@@xMig27x

​​​@@xMig27xlatest twitch livestream for update mins apart 20k peak for hsr 170k genshin Genshin fanbase is way bigger due to covid boost Hsr doesn't even come close with that aspect . And another check you can do just go on Google trends and compare apart from launch Hsr never crossed genshin And that is current genshin Not even at it's peak which was way way higher

Same apart.

frfr

Yun jin😢

I'm just happy that unlike the sung part of the demo, the French is this time easily understandable because in the said demo it was difficult to understand what was being said on first viewing even among fans of the French-speaking community.

Well in HSR & HI3 they been doing that (bonus a whole animation cutscene).

I just finished playing her storyquest and when she visited Poisson and met Navia I felt so upset about their dialogue. I get that the people of Poisson went to a lot of trauma but if only they would know what Furina actually went through the past 500 years 🥲

The official declaration from Neuvillette says Hydro Archon sacrifices all her power and throne to save Fontaine. Therefore Fontainians still show high respect to Furina and admit Furina is still their god. Moreover, the other 4 gods show high respect to Furina in their new voice line, and they still admit Furina is the God of Justice.

We cannot tell the truth because all the plan is to fool heavenly principle, so we need less people to know the truth. But don’t worry, because people know Hydro Archon’s sacrifice, so Furina is still beloved❤

​@@user-hu5dp2wx1zI don't want to be rude or anything but i want to ask what is the source of that statement? I am very interested.

​​@@vincentvigano9990I think it was stated in her story quest. Not sure if Neuvillette said it though, but if it was an official declaration it's probably Neuvillette only.

And sealed her fate

Aaaah! That's nice to know. I thought the archon was the one giving visions, and with Foçalors dead I was wondering how it was possible.

i read it and i think ppl kept misinterpreting it. he did not specifically GAVE her a vision. it was through furina's efforts alone that she managed to receive one. her ambitions were so great that heavens responded to her. srsly so sick and tired of these shippers undermining furina's capabilities

@@lratioyourmom5608 Then read Furina's vision story. Her vision is special because it wasn't given in response to some ambition, but instead as gratitude for her past deeds. Her vision holder also has dragon fangs on it, which is unique for her as well. Accept the facts bish.

​@@lratioyourmom5608From what I understood, no, it was not the heavens that gave her the vision, they can no longer control the Hydro element (at least in Fontaine, I'm not entirely clear about that), it was Neuvillette who recognized her value and decided to give her a vision, not for no reason but because he knew she deserved a vision, his dialogue about visions talks about him not being forced to give them like the archons, but after all those years he decided to continue doing so to those who are worthy

UR NOT ALONE I CRIED SO HARD

I cried like Furina

I also cried so much- ahhhhh Furina deserves this cutscene and the vision sm

bro you sure damn are not alone

I honestly burst into tears, when hydro vision appeared. Furina deserved it

The game has its ups and downs in terms of story quality but if you manage to put up with Inazuma, which was very poorly written, you will see good sagas like Sumeru or even better sagas like those of Fontaine or the Dainslef missions in general.

yes, im so glad they are treating narratives carefully instead of just caring about digging in cash and being perfunctory by writing tacky and souless stories

Personally I think sumeru as a whole was better but Furina alone carried the archon quest here

@@Lightstation_ I respectfully disagree with your opinion. have a good day my friend.

@@buffedsans8761 oh my god is someone being civil and and not wishing harm upon someone for having a difference of opinion

its fine Genshin earn 36 million last revenue list i've seen (before 4.2 patch) pretty sure with Furina banner they might earn 45-50+ million since furina is popular and really loved character after the archon quest

@@Lordmaster316 Truly geniuses behind the codes

she's best because she's humanly relatable

IM so sad but I felt she will not have a 2nd story😢cuz she is a human and without more messages about Archon, maybe the 2nd in Fontaine will give hydro dragon😢

@@user-wf2wm2od6z She is gonna get a 2nd story quest. If you look at the similarities between her and the other archons, she is actually treated pretty similar. All archons have their constellations as a silhouette of themselves, and the same applies to Furina. Neuvillette doesn't have this, and instead has a normal constellation. She also has already earned her title of archon to many players. Even if she isn't an actual born god, she has helped her nation far more than any of the archons we have seen up to now. The people of Fontaine still refer to her as "Lady Furina" as well. Pretty sure if everyone in Fontaine knew of what Furina did (If they actually do and I missed a detail then mb), and Furina wanted to stay as the archon, they would gladly let her.

Yes because every others archon quests have a good lore and story but a really bad storytelling, 4.2 archon quest have a really good lore, story and! storytelling.

neuvillette has no constellation, read his character story 5, he literally just made it up to make the astrologian melusines happy@@_ShikiVR

I don't know anything about French music ..but yeah..it was beautiful..🔥

​​​@@saurabhsharma6168Well, the French music that is popular these days is not really at its best level because even if there are some artists with good lyrics, the majority of them make songs with stupid lyrics and uninspired music. Anyway, a lot of old songs are really very good. Note, however, that many are French covers of American songs (even if it was rare for the lyrics to keep the same meaning), especially in the rock'n'roll side. If I had to recommend French-speaking artists (there are Belgians in them) who have left their mark on France, I would say Johnny Hallyday (he's more or less the French-speaking Elvis: he was a fan and was enormously inspired by him in his young years), Jean-Jacques Goldman (my favorite, he wrote many popular songs for other artists), Léo Ferré, Michel Sardou, Jacques Brel, Serge Gainsbourg, Nino Ferrer, Charles Aznavour, Francis Cabrel, Laurent Voulzy, Georges Brassens, Michel Berger, Claude François, Joe Dassin, Charles Trenet, Renaud, Hugues Aufray (his French version of "Mr. Tambourine Man", "L'homme orchestre", rocked my childhood), Henri Salvador ("Le loup, la biche et le chevalier", better known as "Une chanson douce", is one of the most popular lullabies in France). A more recent one (he started his career in the 90s) that I love is MC Solaar. His texts are very good and studied in French classes of foreign countries. I could also mention Damien Saez but his voice is quite unusual (his detractors say he sounds like a goat) and his songs are tinged with depression, besides he has alcoholism problems and has already been drunk on stage. Renan Luce also deserves to be mentioned. Regarding French-speaking female singers, I know a lot less but the most obvious is Édith Piaf. Other well-known names are Mylène Farmer, Dalida, Céline Dion, Barbara, Patricia Kaas, Françoise Hardy, Sylvie Vartan, Frances Gall, Véronique Sanson, Zazie, Jeanne Mas and surely others that I forget or have never listened to. As for more recent female singers I find them too often overrated. That said, I like Olivia Ruiz. There you have it, with all these names you should be able to expand your knowledge about French song! 👍 PS: I didn't mention them because the few lyrics in their music are in English but Daft Punk is also a French duo which I don't think I need to introduce.

French dub may be coming

@@magnificmango336 OH MYY THANKS YOU SO SO MUCH 🫶🏼💗

well I guess it has French content because the thought of designing this country comes from Frence

Same here! Since we can expect Fontaine's second weekly boss to be tied to her second story quest, I hope that any unresolved conflicts she may have can become resolved in that quest. If we're lucky, we may also get to witness Furina during the lantern event too! If i'm not mistaken, assuming the 6-week rotation continues, 4.4 is probably scheduled to be released on Jan 31st, with CNY falling on February 10th and happens to be the year of the Dragon. I happen to predict there's a chance Dvorak, the traveling Fontainian musician from the last lantern rite, may just offer us the chance to witness Furina got traveling beyond the borders alongside the traveling music tour and getting to experience Liyue's culture for the very first time. The potential interactions are quite interesting to think about ^^

​@@xninjabluexTVit could be 2nd weekly boss to be tied neuvillette second story quest.. since he gains the full power of hydro and he's the ruler of fontaine

Trueeee! As a french i find it so sad that the eng lyrics are telling almost a whole other story…

Yes. Me too! And i cry everytime I listen to this.

​@@skonni44mind sharing what the lyrics actually meant? You may translate to english your own way that captures exactly what it tells about.

Man, Celestia isn't all it's cracked up to be. At this point I'm not surprised to see the archons just giving up their gnosis practically each time.

Not good enough.

The prophecy represents the flood of the bible, even the ship of wriothesly represents noah's ark. In that sense Furina/Foçalors represent Jesus. A sacrifice, the hatred of the people in exchange for an act of salvation.

​@@hinachan70I love how our perception of Celestia has gradually shifted with each piece of the puzzle from each continent, and the balance tipped here in Fontaine, at the midway point.

@@talamioros For real, it's not as benevolent as it seemed to be haha

wait it was Neuvilette?

​@ILoveChicken2021 Yup, and if you closely examine her vision, it has 4 dragon fangs. No other Fontaine character has it. Neuvilette is looking after her in his own way.

Mondstadt is British, but Fontaine is Europe

​@@susuChan007??? Is it a joke that I didn't understand ? Both Monstatd and Fontaine have been inspired by Europe, but the main inspiration for Monstatd is Germany, absolutly not GB... and as you can see and hear, the main inspiration for Fontaine is France. Monstatd mean "the city of the moon" in german and Fontaine main "fountain" in french. I really thought that every genshin player know that, guess I was wrong.

@@RhumFrWell in Fontaine’s music and cuisine there are some elements that are not France. Yes they did say that the main inspo was France but other countries from Europe are also there as well.

@@amateurbarnaby I litteraly said that "both Monstatd and Fontaine have been inspired by Europe"... and this is also why I said "main inspiration" and not "only inspiration". As for Monstatd, Fontaine have some little referencies from other country around. But we can see that Hoyo push really hard the french part when it comes to Furina, lyrics in French in her demo and now they even put it in her story quest, they never really do that for a Monstatd character, or maybe I forgot...

@@susuChan007 mondsadt is mostly inspired by Germany and fontaine is mostly French and British.

I think u r wrong about death sentence, that death sentence is very planned by herself to destroy divine throne of hydro archon

It's not the death sentence that parallels her to the little oceanid story, it's the people who questioned her like the knave and even towards the end, neuvillette, navia, clorinde, and the traveller. The death sentence was agreed by everyone was never meant for her

Not only this, the thought of her failing to act as an archon after all these years, her failing mission she had and because of this her nation disappearing... without knowing a thing about what "mirror me" was going to do.

​@reinhartnata47 it could tho, if you think about it, the fact that everyone didn't trust Furina and did the persecution looks like the story here.

There was not a single cosplayer of her on a con I went not too long ago (there's always way too many genshin cosplayers), my cosplay of her arrived too late. Next con I won't be the only one for sure now she popped of. But she was always best girl for me from the start

​@@LittleSparklingStarsI saw one and I asked her for a photo, I was Keqing

that happened to me, but in 4.0 already, i was super annoyed with her, she seemed like a worse Fischl on steroids. But I felt a sort of dissonance abt her, dunno how to say, so rewatched her dialogue (a feature we don't have in life for ppl we hate at first sight, and one we wouldn't use anyway, huh?) to formulate it. So i revisited her, then in original chinese VO too, got a very different vibe, and at once rescheduled all my pulls to my best girl. The vibe I guessed turned out to be right in the end, so I guess a success in both writing and acting. Precious baby, must protecc at all costs 🥰

wasn't it actually focalors tho? Furina just did what she said. Also...I still find it arguable (people always just go by their simple emotions), the principles exist for a reason. The law was not to create more humans, these oceanid humans should not exist, period. A nation basically went against the laws of their superiors. I'm still on celestia's side. I hope in the end of the game we can decide to either side with the dragons or with the gods.

@@glasperle77 while Furina did what focalors said, to keep up that promise and never reveal even at her lowest point requires a will few have and that is what's admirable for her . Also about the transformation of the oceanids to human and breaking the laws, the heavenly principles are outsiders to this world, they took the 7 dragons power and took over this world. By that logic the hydro archon did the right thing. She created her people, fooled the usurper, released the power of the water dragon back to its rightful owner and was awarded with her people's salvation . We can't make choices if we don't have the full picture . We can't see who is right or wrong . So far celestia isn't a righteous land but rather a land who is feared by its emissaries to the teyvat world

​@@glasperle77 I'd argue that Furina did 99% of the work though. Focalors made a machine that collected indemnitium for the past 500 years and just waited. Whereas it was up to Furina to deceive the heavenly principles for those 500 years.

@@glasperle77 oh so imagine you live hapily ever after for more than 20 generation in your country. Then i come to your house and declare war to u and all of your homie. And in the end I got your whole money, house, and land. Then i claim all of it as mine from the beginning and try to sweep off everybody that knows my sin in the past. That’s what celestia, the second who came, and even primordial one did to Teyvat. They took the real owner (the sovereign dragon) of the planet and their true power (elemental power). What a colonist. Luckily its a fiction story. wait a minute, “Fiction”? 🤨

You jinxed it, Hoyo gonna gassed it even more😂

nah compare to their other works this is lacking, honkai cutscenes are far more superior.

@@xMig27x this is why Honkai fandom is superior in toxicity since they are the most vocal on this topic. (despite their playerbase is too small) 😂

@@xMig27x Honkai living a free rent on this person head. Free Advertisement. Sorry I skip Ads. /swoosh

@@xMig27x idek man, honkai cutscene is more anime like and genshin more 2d live, and it hits differently for both and people's references

idk I see a lot including myself that liked her sassy attitude at the start. If anything, she was more mixed received.

@@neurofiedyamato8763 Same. Her dramatic nature really appealed to me.

Not me. A liar is a liar, and no amount of necessity makes lying any more excusable. People love holding other archons to a high standard, but not Furina, which is funny how unfair it was, considering how Focalors was the god of Justice.

​@@Grayewickyou have to be joking, are you saying she should have let her nation be dissolved into water because lying is wrong.

yeah I think they consult french writers and artists for fontaine, which is rare in today’s games

sorry for asking, but whats that title mean? (dont understans French, sorry)

Little wave@@JustRen_owo Vague means Wave lette is a suffix used to make something lesser (but as in little) So here it's little wave

@@Yaya-lz4pxso basically vaguelatte means little oceanid?

that's also used in spanish

everyone doubted her as archon literally same like when she first introduced to fontaine people

@@nakoni for sure, that entire bit was definitely meant to be a mirror of her haters before 4.2, except haters are even worse than fontainians because players are deliberately being told that her personality is a facade and she's clearly hiding something, but oh nooo she's useless let's hate her

​@@ziggystarduskThe average Genshin player's opinion is usually very extreme and biased. They usually misunderstand the lore and base their opinions on memes they see about the game thinking those memes are accurate.

She had a reason to act that way. She needed to make the people of fontaine believe she was the archon

I love how everyone thought her facade was that she was acting weak, the truth with her being a human playing the role of god is a way better writing choice than I could've imagined

It's called whaling until you get her

We all thought she was just a bratty spoiled god at first let's be real.

It's "Nous pardonneras-tu". Thanks for the more accurate translation, I know just enough French to know it's a bit off, but not enough to correct it.

@@bodilhov9722 Thanks a lot, I wasn't sure if she was saying "Nous" or "Me", as said, it's good to have another take on the lyrics, and I am glad I can be of help, you're welcome ^^ !

Same, I keep replaying it. 4.2 got me messed up- I need to lie down. When Pauleau turns around to look for his lost lover at "Yet I am here, and here I shall remain," after she had given herself up... ouch times one million.

Same

By the end the one big blue water drop encircled with 2 other smaller water drop was definitely a reference to Furina, Focalors and Neuvillette, kinda creative

Furina cutscene is her vision

Zhongli: welcome to the club

@@shanedoesyoutube8001 even though she is not an archon anymore she probably welcome by them

@@rednave4489 yes she is, if you have read all archon voices about furina

​@@shanedoesyoutube8001 Venti: Hey, don't just left me out of the fun, you old timer! Anyway, Furina, wanna beer?

fr

As a French person, it's my favorite cutscene ! :D

We might get another cultular song for sure. For now we have Yunjin and Furina singing in their own language, would be nice to hear Venti singing some german song as well..

Do the story quest next.

that’s what her story quest is for 😭?

@@raywa5821 story quest will make you feel better... true freedom for Furina!

pls no happy ending genshin have from that way to much im glad the whole fontaine story gives and shows chars consequences this fresh air was needed

Because the archon quest was for Focalors, the true archon. Furina gets a lot of development is her quest.

Same

Very romantic

Real

Merci le reuf

True

Too bad, he likes somebody else (well she died so i guess you can try-)

А чо там с ляйден мЭЙ, после потери сестры заперлась, типичная хиканка. Ли тока хорошо прописан, а ВэнДи вообще-террорист революционер, Декабриан был лучше. Ну и 500 летняя лоля хороша, правда она не помнит старую себя, что подливает масло, когда флешбеки мелькают.

Не могу дождаться второй части.

На данный момент, самый прописанный в плане сюжетки, "архонт". Все правильно, после сюжетки Эи, это просто струя свежести. Ждем Терновый порт и Венти... готовьте вагон салфеток)

dont compare that trash to furina pls

@@stelixhyx808 don't call anyone trash, pls. I condemn!

Not for me, I felt like Fontaine ending is a bit rushed and the whale bossfight was underwhelming.

I find Furina best written genshin char tho.

Her whole story made me more sad than any other story, the part where she sits on her bed and cries about how much longer she has to continue this act really hit me harder than anything in this whole game and thats not an exaggeration

​@@tidf-wh1zgOK if thats would you think idk if it was actually rushed buts it ur opinion and I respect that

​@@tidf-wh1zgI respectfully disagree with your opinion. have a good day my friend.

Well, she didn't break her acting on stage because it scripted give it a fake vision instead real one as performence

@@tsuki5859 yeah I saw makes no sense in my opinion
