I'm probably doing this WuWa shit wrong because I am genuinely not interested in the story all nor do I really give much of a shit about the characters that get focused on. I like the side characters far more.

If anything the music is great and the world design is fantastic but I just cringe and roll my eyes at everything else.

The gameplay is fun too of course.

Thank God for the skip button and the summaries because I am so everyone and what the fuck else happens.

I've really enjoyed the story of 2.0 onward. I just finished Roccia's story and it was pretty good. (Plus it's always nice to have a character NOT trying to bang Rover) The Main story was good as well, and the final fight with Multi-element Rover was what I wanted from GI for 5 god damn years.

Oh yeah that was great. Narratively Meh however but I digress.

It's probably because she's a child and it'd just be weird as fuck. But anyway I did that one too and I liked it as well. See the side characters really are far more interesting than the main characters.

I do unfortunately sit with the feeling more effort was put into her story over Brants but alas I'm biased as fuck.

The main story I am so not interested. I'm doing gacha wrong but I'd love a little less everyone instantly ready to worship Rover. Generally less Rover single show would be lovely.

GI and HSR and ZZZ i think do balance a lot of character involvement well in comparison. Of course TB/Traveler/Proxy are the main characters so they gotta be the driving force but I feel like just the writing creates the illusion that it's a team effort instead of one main guy doing it all.

Then again Rover is a litteral god so...

And the less I say about big titty jellyfish woman, the better

What the fuck is this

Guy that replaced shinji infamously in the netflix dub of EVA that's now the only legally available dub. Did very bad. Was apperently a youtube VA guy beforehand and fr some reason you have to dig to find any photos that aren't severely photoshopped to try and make him look like an anime character. Went down that rabbit hole a few years ago after seeing that fucking image for the 50th time.
hold up let me see if I can find non-filtered footage
EDIT:
Still a little odd looking though.

It's on Weibo or BiliBili. Chinese players were straight-up asked by Redditors due to being silenced (as per this, posts are now back up & Reddit jannies are slowly releasing them back after the auto-mod turned them all down for a review process. I don't honestly believe this, it's Reddit we're talking about) & the chinks responded.

To clarify what I meant, I couldn't find any evidence that Peng Bo or Hoyo told people to stop sending them emails.

Rover is a janny with amnesia to collecting new wives/resonators in hope dealing with Lament and Threonidans. They aren't almighty powerful being (enough) and still need help from other people or new generation of resonators. The thing WuWa does is always making sure Rover the main character in the main story rather than MHY does letting gacha characters shine more or share efforts

Entire Huanglong, literally being dragging and guided by Yang Yang crew. Jinhsi puts Scar in prison. Alto guides to old experimental lab of an "ancient" group. Entire Jinzhou cast goes out defending against Ovathrax armies. Yang Yang, Jianxin and Jiyan go all the way helping Rover to Dreamless.
Mt.Firmament, Changli as "tourist guide" and Jinhsi second awakening. Rover is there to give approval for second awakening. Blackshore, Shorekeeper as "tour guide" and saves Rover from Tethys.
Now here is the fun part. Does Genshin takes some cues with two parts (3:30 and 11:39) between Rover and Shorekeeper in Tethys for Hu Tao and Traveler cutscene? I'm not complaining, I like good moments can be "shared" in any games.

2.0
Part 1. Brandt crew saves Rover from "corrupted" Cetus first time. Phoebe "Papers, please" easily to Rover because she knows Montelli family well enough, otherwise Rover can't go in because Echo usage authorization. Zani being "tourist guide", helps Rover dealing with Gilberto (Fisalia) trying to disrupt Carnivale preparation from Montelli. Later on, meeting Phoebe again, she's the only one can read ancient text to summon Lorelei.

Part 2. Carlotta turn to be "tour guide" and dealing with traitors in family. Later on get separated because the Order meddling. Rover had to deal with the Dragon (Gehimnon) first time, got "dragged" to Petinent's End. Roccia turn to be "tourist guide" and conveniently Fools Troupe working with Carlotta.

Part 3, literally entire cast are in to deal with Fractsidus. Cutscene Brandt, Roccia and Carlotta help Rover flying to Phroglova.
Question at the end, who is Cartethyia? Is she the Blessed Maiden or the false Maiden for Threnodian? This is entire plot point of 2.2.

strong emotional moment and great opportunity for nice visuals.

I think there are a few more of that set up, but that was the first one off the top of my head.

Are the SAG FAGS still at it? Good, blacklist them all.

uk is a pozzed shithole, but that doesn't mean the VAs are or that their local version of SAG is. I'm not even sure they have a specific SAG and it's not simply something larger included with stage and broadway. too lazy to check.

TFD is as "problematic" as it can get and was voiced by a british studio, and even better it doesn't make me turbocringe (maybe because it's not an "anime" game and they don't feel the need to overact).

Omfg FINALLY. I am ready to get stabbed by her horns.
 
Didn't really have much luck in rolling both Trigger and her sig.
Out of four limited sig weapon banner, I lose three of them. Totallllllyyyyyyyy 75/25. For standard banner, I'm only missing sig weapons for Koleda and Neko. S11 is now M1W2.

Trigger (4pc stun - 2pc aftershock damage) is a bit weird as stunner. She doesn't quite stun as fast as other 5* stunners I feel, but she gives decent amount of sub damage as off-field. Current Shiyu Defense, she reduces 20 seconds for me - replacing Qingyi in SSAnby team. For DA, she helps team overall damage increasing by 10k score. Basically, she gives bit more damage into SS Anby basic attacks (not feel as bad) and much more in SS Anby skill attack damage. Yes, she comes with increasing damage multiplier in stun state, still less than Qingyi (35% vs 80%).
If I have to say, I probably more satisfied with Trigger "gameplay" than SS Anby. Praying to RNG not losing 50/50 into Hugo, in poor/broke state now.

Hangout events. Trigger is clingy, stalker and overprotective. Considering she's suffered PTSD from losing her old squadmates.
Midnight event. Context, she wants to eat proper ramen, so she can make a precise meal fitting S11 and Proxy taste next time. S11 just says everything out loud.
Answer no3 gives "Significant trust" increases. No idea for the other two. It's adorable that S11 isn't alone by herself anymore.

Ciaccona. Being a gun user intrigues me, miiiiiiiiigggggghhhhtttt even skipping Zani for her. Rip Ma Xiaofang and Aalto if CIA is a dps character. I'm questioning Kuro behind the scenes, it's going to New FEDeration next after Rinascita from leaks.
It's a microphone stand that she's holding.
