silvergoose posted:The Chinese voice cast is really good, though? No idea about their star status, but they're really, really good. Yeah I find them generally really excellent. It's definitly got a different style though, feels more subdued and natural vs the exaggerated style common in anime and English dubs. Paimon sounds like she could be someone's excited little sibling :3

I just use the English dub to ensure nobody will ever respect my opinion about the voice acting I couldn't switch at this point if I wanted to, I'm way too used to like Kazuha and Ayato's English voices and now their Japanese voices sound wrong to me. (I do like the Chinese ones, though.)

My only problem with Chinese voices is that you don't get subtitles for the things your characters randomly say on the field or in combat, and for all I know they're mercilessly mocking me

I like to understand the in-battle or field lines as well, and those are almost never subtitled in games. Sometimes I still use the Japanese voices anyway, like in Yakuza: Like a Dragon, but I still end up wishing I understood what characters said when they did their attacks or leveled up or things like that.

I know you're making a joke about her main strength being her passives that affect the rest of the team, but her Q does seem like a fire-and-forget off-field hydro damage thing, so even if it's relatively weak it seems like you want to level that one up at least. Edit: Unless you're intentionally not using it to avoid conflicting hydro applications or something?

Chinese's biggest advantage is that everything is properly lip synched and it's wild Genshin just has the quite literal worst in regards to how much money they pour into it. They fixed the first batch of hangouts and then *never again*

Got Tighnari, Candace x2, Kuki Shinbou and a couple of 4 star weapons in about 33 pulls. Probably gonna do at least a couple more x10 pulls but debating whether to go for Venti or save my guarantee. Kind of leaning towards the latter. Anyway good pulls.

the ones I could never find my way back to are these two:  I randomly stumbled onto them while exploring one day so I have the achievement that requires beating all 9, but when I was farming mats for Isshin I couldn't figure out how to get back there. There's like 3 different z-levels around that one spot on the map an you have to come at them all from different directions.

RPATDO_LAMD posted:the ones I could never find my way back to are these two: You can unlock a shortcut from the Ad Hoc Main Tunnel area straight to that room (basically, going south from the waypoint located just north of that picture, but also going waaaaay down below) To initially reach it you go into the passage going west from the eastern waypoint in the Main Mining Area, turning north into the big open area, up and around the outside of said area, then west to the Underground waterway room where the knights are e : VVV the shortcut is demonstrated below in the video!

That clip shows the way in from a different teleport point than the one pictured, through a route which may or may not be open depending on whether you unlocked the shortcut when you were first messing around in the chasm.

Otherwise probably Xiangling or Rosaria, like everyone else said.

As a new player it was a little weird hopping back from Inazuma to Mondstadt for some extremely early game world quests that I skipped. Paimon sounds distinctly different and not as high pitched in the earlier content.

Well, maybe the barriers can be opened from either side, I don't remember. Either way, it's probably good to open them all up; at least part of the researcher's quests are behind them I think. And just like the seed you get from finding the big [non-talking] mushroom, you'll probably need the introduction letter from him for something.

The Japanese track has the likes of Miyuki Sawashiro and Akira Ishida, with a high probability of an eventual character voiced by Takahiro Sakurai. So as far as I'm concerned, the Chinese track is a no-go.

RareAcumen posted:
Character dishes are basically +1 star/suspicious, in terms of their effect (highly unscientifically based on looking solely at hp dishes, which seem to max at 3☆ anyway), so you have eula's. Seems she's the only one who makes a custom 4☆ dish. That said, maybe for Sumeru? It's been 2 nations again, not that one time makes for a pattern. I can only assume when we get a new one, it'll require at least one of the region's most annoying ascension materials. After all, we've got that stupid mushroom platter dish that uses Collei's mushrooms. Plus, at the time adeptus' temptation was a pain to make, due to a scarcity of crabs (it was for me, at least).
