The bureaucracy questline is pretty funny. You spend three consecutive (in-game) days doing three consecutive quests where you leave the room you're in exactly once and do nothing but talk to people and deal with paperwork. The punchline is that each individual quest in this line is a separate Fontaine reputation quest, so you get 60% of an Archon Quest's worth of reputation for 15 minutes of watching a young bureaucrat descend into madness.

they're legit biological twins, but it's just genetic differences. they're a boy and a girl, so they're fraternal twins, not identical twins. so lynette inherited the cat ear gene and lyney didn't, same as how fraternal twins can have different eye/hair/skin colors. fraternal twins are functionally just siblings that happened to be born at the same time, it comes from two different eggs being fertilized at the same time. theres no genetic difference from if they were born a decade apart, assuming the same parents. identical twins occur when an already fertilized egg splits, thus basically 'cloning' the same baby. this has been your genshin impact biology lesson.

Maybe Lyney is also a catboy, but he was born with a hideous deformity that makes him look exactly like a normal human.

The slot machine insisted on giving me a C6 Lynette. Been fun exploring Fontaine with Lynette, Nahida, Raiden and Kokomi. Run the cat on land and the fish in the water and the other two make short work of HP bars. Looking forward to meeting a frog friend and I like what they are doing with Salsa and viewpoints.

LeastActionHero posted:No? While underwater swim up and sprint, Lynette and HMC will jump out of the water, everyone else I've tried just hits the surface and stops. I'm guessing Lyney will do the same but I don't have him. Had to try just to see if I'm losing it and well drat, I guess I am losing it. You're right, my bad, I was so sure I've done it with other characters than Lyney and Lynette but guess not after all.

On the subject of passives working underwater, Baizhu's "heal when you pick up a collectable" works so that's a nice source of healing if there aren't any fishies nearby.

Huh. Just finished Act II of the Archon Quest and I may wait for Neuvillette instead of pulling for Lyney. On the one hand, Lyney having Pneuma attacks and surfacing local pickups on the minimap is nice QoL early on in Fontaine. On the other, neither of those things seem to matter with the generous amount of pneuma/ousia orbs in the environment and the updated online map, not even mentioning that it seems unnecessary to even engage with the pneuma/ousia mechanic at all if your party's already well-built. I already have Yoi and Kokomi so both element/weapon types would have some overlap, but I'm happy to double up if the character's cool. If he ends up having Pneuma application I'm basically sold. (Yes, I know HMC has Pneuma application; no, I won't be using HMC.) Glad I figured this out at ~69 pity and no later! How is the pneuma/ousia mechanic feeling for y'all? So far it feels like a nice 'bonus' to have characters with pn/ou application talents, but nothing more. Especially because you can't even use them underwater! They do give you a character with each for free, so I wonder whether it'll be a more important factor in later patches - some fight where you can't proceed without having a character with application for example, like the Dendro cube.

free Trapt CD posted:Huh. Just finished Act II of the Archon Quest and I may wait for Neuvillette instead of pulling for Lyney. Honestly yeah, people were really over selling it. It's about on the level of cheating at Inazuma puzzles with Beidou or platforming with any of the people who can do that, plus shooting ruin guards in the eye. Nice bonus, not necessary at all. Also Hydro MC is very fun, although I have just learned that even their elemental application isn't as good as I thought. Thankfully whoever I choose between Xiangling and Fischl is overpowered enough for it to still work, at least in overworld.

i doubt theyd ever make anything that literally hardlock required the pneuma/ousia mechanic. they just want to push speedrun abyss whales into it, they dont want to make it something average players will be inconvenieced by.

DMC is still the most fun I've had with a Traveler moveset. It sucks that you have to level each element's skills all over again every time.

Wonder why they never went along with the traveler being able to use different weapons too. There's a quest in Inazuma where they use the bow and are supposed to be amazing at it

Too much development time for a small indie company like Hoyoverse. They still haven't fixed the problem in early story quests where everyone keeps flipping what gender they refer to Traveler as.

I stubbornly/misguidedly had the Traveler in my party until well into Liyue back in the day despite having other, stronger characters (including Zhongli) because he's the "main character" and it took me way too long to realize how the game works. E: I do like his dollar store Venti Anemo burst, it's quick and doesn't do all that much but it's satisfying to use.

Tampa Bae posted:Wonder why they never went along with the traveler being able to use different weapons too.

Maybe they can do that for our sibling, if they ever become playable.

They could give them their ability to swap elements mid-fight that they've demonstrated in cutscenes. But probably someone mathed it out at Hoyo and decided that would decrease rolls by whatever percent.

at least let us put multiple Traveler elements in one team. now that Fontaine's out you could make a semi-passable hyperbloom comp, although healing might be an issue

It’s strange because Star Rail was perfectly happy to give a good kit for that game’s first reclass of their MC (and leaks for their next class also look to be good). Other gachas that use a MC character have made it powerful without issue; your MC is often the most powerful character in your team in Granblue, for example, and that’s never devalued the hundreds of characters they’ve dropped into the draw pool over the years. It’s strange because DMC had an actual useful niche and it seemed like they had taken some lessons from how useless they otherwise are, but now we are right back there. I mean, why not design an enabler kit for better gacha characters to take advantage of? That’s move some sales.
