@@Mr.Z737 why did I just imagine river snd jiyan looking at eachother and rover just goes “sorry man, you gotta go” while slowly pointing the death vacuum at him💀
Hoyo hoyo legit killed mascot characters with her lol. Its like they looked at navi from ocarina of time and said "I can do better" but in terms of annoying the player.
Paimon looks cute, but that's only compliment I can give her. As the writers uses her like crutch, and she acts far more main character than the actual protagonist.
It probably just a pet. It has collar on the neck. Unlike Paimon who...always there by the traveller side yapping. This...bunny pet looking thing just appear to eat stuff and disappear to Rover's hand. Meaning it only show up when needed and wasnt there all the time. The entire dialogue so far is just it's being hungry. While Paimon dialogue is the entire wiki page in Genshin 1.0
@@ruzgarozer8035, na rover is the Jalope that drives this lagomorph shaped black hole around to the restraunts that serve these morsels known as calamity class TDs. Lil guy likely to smoll to go trekking around so Rover is basically its Uber for them Eats.
“Everyone has PTSD from paimon!” Y’know what i have PTSD with? A cold, arrogant, calculating and scheming extraterrestrial cat-like being posing as a familiar who can grant any wish to a certain girl, on the condition that she becomes a magical girl and fight against witches, that’s that i’m scared of. And yes because of that, i don’t think i can trust that thing or even Paimon (i trust them both dw dw)
I like Abby’s more backseated existence in Rover’s story. Often times, in Genshin, it feels like Paimon is the main character because of how often she speaks for the Traveler. Meanwhile, Abby very rarely shows up whenever he isn’t relevant.
sees stitch me: "YESSSSSSS" me realizing a new paimon me: "NOOOOOOO" stitch goes back in hand. me realizing we got new writers and are safe. me: "YESSSSSSSS" i love migi in parasyte so having him in the mcs hand is sick af
Okay i really fucking love abby. I love her appearance. I love her name. I love her personality. I love it that she's basically us and we are basically her. I love her English voice acting (yeah i know a really rare compliment of English wuwa voice acting). Listen, i am one of those people who always loved paimon. Despite everyone hating her. She's so cute and good. Yeah i admit it she's sometimes annoying, but she's way too cute and... yeah. Despite all that, i adore abby so much. I love her even more than paimon. I wish she got more screentime in 1.1 because it was so little. I really hope from 1.2 she becomes the paimon of this game where she's always in every single cutscene. I love her so mich. I would so much get a abby plushy
Paimon trauma is real. Only in the moments like this we can see how deep it is... Also, players being wary of this thing is understandable, as that thing actually was revealed, so they're afraid it might start talking more than when it was just a voice Rover hears sometimes And some players are concerned that this thing doesn't fit with the overall darker tone of the game, and that it might be sign of Kuro going the genshin route (aka creating a story for little kids)
Devs should add paimon as this game... but as a reference. Maybe they add a toy shop and when you buy a toy its anoying as HEY HEY LISTEN LISTEN from zelda. And then you have a quest to get rid of it.
From the future here! This character, now named Abby, does make an appearance in the main story of 1.1 and plays a big role in it. However, I can reassure you that Abby does not have hour long dialogue, and yes, you can skip it. It also likes to eat. However, unlike in genshin, WuWa is *showing* that there’s lore to Abby, and not just letting all the players figure it out. In conclusion, Abby is not NEARLY as bad as Paimon. So far. Let’s keep it that way.
that little guy is the light orb the goddess put into the rover body in the intro, but since all it does it absorbing echoes i'm sure it will evolve further, since the tacets themselves are trying to absorb frequencies and evolving into stronger form.
@@Majorflkiddo literally has way more characterization then paimon in just 2 weeks vs the 4 years for paimon. And it has not even spoken more than 5 lines. Paimon entire lore is more based on memes and what ifs that are more to prod fun at him then actually confirm what he actually is, since even any scant lore that bread crumbs to him can be considered shaky or red herrings.
@@Zyleace na, we all know it’s either suppose to be Luna, since Lucia is still based on the original Lucia aka Alpha, meaning Luna would of likely had to have a adamantium stomach to survive the horrendous cooking. OR it’s our Lucia’s forgotten C.U.B. Who happens to have such a voracious appetite either to cause a food coma to rid of it the taste of Lucia’s food or it’s just one of the few beings in existence that can enjoy Lucia’s food and not require medical attention from it.
personally i think it's there to be the mascot of the game, it'll probably pop in from time to time in either specific story moments or for comedic relief, i don't think it'll fill the same role as paimon, that's not the vibe it gave me but we'll have to wait and see. if anything i feel like yangyang fits more the role of paimon than this little mascot. i think it looks super cute and i'm curious to see what they'll do with it in the future, i don't like to make too many negative assumptions based on speculation.
i can't blame people for fearing any form of a paimon. a good chunk of the wuwa playerbase is people who quit genshin (as am i) and have dealt with so much of HER. personally , i thought march, being the character on the app icon, would be a paimon (although still annoying asf, you can actually insult and annoy her so it's okay). pom pom could've also very well been a paimon. i thought this while first playing hsr because i was in the middle of a persona 5 playthrough and was familiar with annoying small animal character, but still also knowing paimon, expected the worst. overall, i understand the community being scared of a paimon, but considering the amount of shit kuro has done for us already, i trust them. side note: i'm too annoyed about how bad the english dub is to even care whether this creature is a paimon or not. good thing i don't mind jp i guess.
So long they don't replace Rover ability to talk (which they have shown even in side stories, they won't), I welcome the suspiciously familiar bunny ear shaped all-powerful creature. Also, you are right - it totally glosses over my head how OP it is in lore if we fail to beat something, will it save us in the future or put us in a no choice situation.
I find mascot extremley extreeeeemely adorable and satisfying in design. I would absolutely adore it as a companion. But... It totally ruined that death-threating situation for me. Jiyan and Rover go hardcore fighting for their lives, that out of the world location design, there's this massive attack that can wipe everything out of its existence and... then there it's this little cutie becoming saviour of day. I have never felt so conflicted in my life 😂
Piamon yapping 24/7 and always hungry Me : let the suffering begin 😭 Abby : Can i eat it ?! Can i fight it ?! " CAN I KILL IT?!!! " Also want to square up to a damn frickin dragon !! Me : jezz chill little one 😨
am i the only one who loves paimon yap? not EN dub obviously, her JP voice is so freaking funny, if you've watch Japanese comedic shows, paimon and traveler are literally what you call tsukomi-bole duo, and it's hella funny
Would be super funny if it begins as this mascot and ends up as a full blown boss lament as you feed it. Also I laught so hard with the Yangyang comment... Please save her.
I dont think it will, but I would like for it to be part of Rover.. Like Rover was two conciousness of one being. Something like Rover represents the human side and it represents Tacid. Rover being both Human and Tacid. I honestly really hope taht Rover is some type of Warden afterall sent by the goddess (like her avatar). it make sense her/him being both keeping the balance. Also, in one of the dreams when getting stuck in that training exercise, Dreamless refered to my Rover as "mother" I'd asume male rovers got called father?. Now give that some thought.
And to add, I too am sick of it being compaired to piamon.. the whole comparing to genshin gets sickening.. Christ just give it a rest alrready. Genshin was also not the first of its kind. Genshin didnt invent the wheel.
people used to treat mascot characters as cute Pokémon like companion but these days people just be mad about it and often jump to conclusion too easily that everything expect to be another "genshin clone trope"
Thing is, it saying: "I want food" might be just a result of lacking voice direction. In Japanese dub it made only some onomatopeias and cute sounds and didn't say any eligible words.
Me who never got to act 6 due to leveling many alt accounts, I think this creature was allowed Rover to change their elements and they are last line defense if Rover facing a thread that will lead them to death, and that creature enhance Rover's sensitivity over frequency that allow them to see the future, when I look through yt I thought that creature was Hoshino from Blue Archive then I remembered Lucia Alpha from pgr as the goddess looks like Lucia Plume probably we will see it true form as we progress from the story and other region
Imo you shouldn't blame the players, you should blame hoyoverse. If we got to the point that a mascot is able to bring PTSD to players and making them unable to think, it means something is REALLY wrong with genshin impact. This is not normal. People can hide reality all they want, but this behavior show how 4 hours for ONE quest destroyed players will
Well, Idk why but this little thing remind me of Hoshino (from BA). Did they both has the same VA? umm.. just curious. If it's yes, then that would be awesome.
Rover's was a devourer there's a reason the Theronadian of war fled, like literally there's no reason it should be fearing like that . My personal theory your pet , is the embodiment of the theronadian of gluttony or something. Rover talks more than Trailblazer chapter 1 alone they talk a lot even in side quest than Trailblazer too. Hopefully we give this more of talking from Rover. And Paimon's role was for literal kids as they always give out obvious clues to every puzzle and story. We don't get that from Wuwa other than Yangyang being a wikipedia if god forbid you ask a question because you don't know a term which tbh you can just don't choose those dialogues.
1 I looooove that Rover talks like even if mostly inner dialogue. 2 dude seems more like a pokemon/ digimon talks like a baby and have a moster apetite and actually useful lol 3 agree about Kuro listen to us so fear not
Have genuinely never cared less about a story than wuwas. I wonder what Kuro is going to do going forward now that they know that 90% of the playerbase skipped the main quests lmao
Of course you’re not gonna care if you skipped it 😭 you literally wouldn’t even know what’s happening or the story lines they built up for the future. It’s only 1.0, it’ll ramp up. Bout to make a video on my honest thoughts tho, and don’t get me wrong i agree on the 90% skipping just not the story part. I’m actually interested and like some of the concepts and think they could definitely build more in the future
@@Majorfl brainless reply fr. I did rerolls for cal and paid attention the first time around, so it’s not like I have no idea what the story is about lmao. The story is simply boring and not good. There’s nothing about it that entices players to actively pay attention. Even Kuro has told players it’s not worth paying attention to by adding the skip button.
Yeah true, I did say this could age like milk. But for now based on what we have in the game so far. That concern seems meh to me considering 7 hours of story we only see them for 5 minutes
Paimon PTSD are real! The queen of yapping is nightmare for me. I thanked Pompom for ramming the astral express to Sunday and Abby for eating the dreamless explosion, they’re my favorite mascot right now.
Personally I get annoyed with mascots in general, so when it popped up I was disappointed. I’d prefer that they didn’t have one, and I think it felt really random and didn’t match the world when it popped up. I also didn’t like how bs it felt cause after all of that some random creature pops up out of no where and saves us. I agree the story doesn’t need to be dark all the time, but I’d rather have those light hearted moments just be with the playable characters. I won’t mind it so much if it barely shows up or if it turns into something cool, but knowing how mascots usually act I’ll probably still get annoyed. (Paimon is the worst mascot/companion in any game I’ve come across, but I don’t think it’ll be as bad as her because I doubt it’ll take up 90% if the dialogue)
