    I think Xiao has the saddest backstory, this guy was enslaved, forced to kill innocent ppl and devour their dreams, lost his 4 comrades, and still has to carry this burden, the karma of the evil gods still to this day flow in his body, he still slaughters to this date and suffers for eternity, his life is just suffering

      and the fact that many people will not remember him after he is gone is even more depressing. His friend who had a small statue had was in a house of ruins. in a new quest you can see that Xiao was there remembering his friend. It's quite sad how this will be the case for Xiao, he's mostly known as a legend and many people will not see him, but he doesn't care for that.

Fast forward a couple years and the Knights of Favonius kill the bandits and force her to become a nun at the church.

    @jigshawpuzzle Před 2 lety +867

    Kaeya and Dilucs backstory has always been one of interest to me, both in the emotions in it and also the translation part. There are about 4 slight variations of Crepus' death: One immediately to Ursa, one to the delusion, one in Diluc's arms and one from Diluc's arms out of pity. I'm glad you made the point that they still clearly care for each other as it's a detail not many notice, like one neat little detail is that in the Chinese translation both character's favourite animals are owls. This was retranslated in one version of Genshin but then changed back to Kaeyas being a nightingale for some reason (as far as I know it hasn't been changed back again). I think it's the bittersweetness of their lore that makes it so interesting to read into, as well as seeing differences between translations and trying to come to an overall general conclusion (there are also cultural barriers such as Sworn brothers in Chinese whereas brothers in English, the best way I can describe sworn brothers is like 2 friends sworn to an oath I guess?), Very interesting video by the way I enjoyed it!

      @@mouses_HK Yea it was a world quest called The Yaksha’s Wish, which has a message saying that Bosacius and Alatus (Xiao’s old name) were the only Yakshas left. The Yaksha who wrote the message said they will leave the mortal realm and whoever find their message can take all of their treasures if they want. So if we take into account that the electro Yaksha who turned evil has to be put down lest he threaten Liyue’s safety, the pyro one went mad, at least one Yaksha died in the battle between the hydro and Geo one, then the one who “left the mortal realm” (implied suicide) would be either Geo or hydro (whoever survive that battle)

    For everyone's information, Guizhong and Zhongli were not lovers, it's just people shipping them together, a cute head canon, but kinda misleading how people straight up try to pass it off as canon when in reality nothing of the sort was ever confirmed. Apart from that, I agree, the genshin characters' have pretty fucked up backstories.

    In my opinion Venti has one of the saddest backstorys cause hey his friend died no big deal almost everyone in genshin impact lost someone but the fact that he took the form of his friend, helps someone that went through the same thing(this is part of the venti quest) and yet he still smiles unlike most of the characters in game that lost someone

    Most ppl think immortality or having a long long time to live is a gift u have time enough to do anything to learn anything to go anywhere and... But they don't know it's just a curse at the end 1 year or 1000 year u finally reach the point that anything not enjoyable u saw everyone u love or hate die so many time, ppl kill eachother, city's destroyed. Its so bad that any word can't describe.

    in Xiao's backstory way back then while he was enslaved by the god he used to have wings but they pulled his wings off for some reason? blood came out and also the reason for his short height due to being starved almost to death which is also the reason for his line saying "Once the snow is thick enough we can eat it" there's a saying that people in poverty eat snow due to starvation so when snow comes down from ceiling he has to eat it since its his only food source and due to being prisoned underground he developed a fear of being in the dark

    So basically, zhongli guided xiao murderous instinct by giving him a mission to quell the lingering hatred of the fallen after the archon war and venti's flute keeps his sanity intact.

    I think those characters sitting with raiden shogun should also come to genshin as five star characters

    XIAOS bavmstaory is so sad. His 'master' didn't care about my at all - so much so that xiao had to eat snow to survive. And what worse is he still thinks about years later as seen in his voicelines.
