kinda sucks that Mihoyo let the Traveller still be a "mute" than saying whatever the dialogue we picked during this part of story.
@Clouxy ikr lol
I recommend watching AirZach’s stream on him playing this mission. He’s the va of aether and actually voices the travellers lines :3 along with him and lumines va bullying dain lmaooo
^ do note he’s only the english va and i don’t remember any other version of aether does so...
Except, Lumine is more voicelines than Aether due to she said "Who're you" to Unknown God blocked path leaving world.
@Clouxy yeah, it just makes no main playable character personality and put into much commercial way.
Aether: *talking*
Lumine: _discord notifications_
AajsjamanandnajajJJJdjammehahe s a!
HELP
PLS I THOUGHT THOSE NOTIFS WERE MINE
“Shut up for a sec Aether, I need to answer a few of my dm’s”
Bro i thought that was my discord
Lumine is colder but less intimidating as the villain while Aether is gentler but more intimidating as the villain
Ye
@Aether Hilichurl Destroyer Ye
Oh damn u right-
True
The voice actor has been practicing a lot XD for Aether
Lumine sounds angry and vengeful, while Aether just sounds... tired and broken, like he has no other choice than this
I agree, Lumine is best voice slot side Abyss Order to potentially actions, whereas Aether seems be adventure boy
Plot wist Aether's VA is actually tired and restless so they got that effect
@@404etfrost3 you mean he gonna side Abyss Order? Gimme break. Lumine and Aether personally are unknown. They aren't act exactly same and role. Mihoyo almost never animated trailer Lumine and Aether but Lumine is more voicelines than Aether.
@@arocomisgamusclademork1603 I mean the voice on the quest the evil aether one
@@arocomisgamusclademork1603 I'm not talking about the lore
Traveler voiced the "Well... Could you help me put up some missing posters...?" part but not this..? 😭
They are sadly a bit too strict on the 'mute MC' thing at the wrong times.
I really feelt surprised during the Prologue where Aether/Lumine just yell 'Venti!' because it was a thrilling scene and finally having them actually speak in a cutscene was pleasently surprising.
At the end of Liyue, that being the thing that was actually voiced feelt boring. I mean it was kind of a comedic relief thing to do, but i'd rather have them finally change the Traveller to NOT be a mute MC.
@@MikayaAkyo I don't really mind them being mute most of the time, because that's voice acting money that could be spent elsewhere, but when it's a scene like this it's an odd choice. Because y'know, it's a really important moment, and it could really benefit from the mc not being mute in this scenario to make it even more impactful. It's just a few cutscenes anyway.
@@louise4152 idk how much they'd have to pay to at least have SOME voice acting for the Traveller when they already need to hire the VA for the one sentence per Story-Arc we get xD
But yeah, maybe not fully non-mute. But in important scenes it would be great.
This one for example or near the end of the Story / during a climatic cutscene.
For example i would've been more invested in the fight against Childe if it wasn't just Paimon and Childe having a conversation while the Traveller just stood there and gestured like a mute trying to communicate.
Like... Voice the Cinematic ones you don't even have choices anyways. That would be enough for me.
@@MikayaAkyo true true
The MC only speaks in those animated custscenes that are super fluid, usually when a fight is going on. For dialogue scenes (which are like 99% of the game) the Traveler is mute because in those scenes, you usually choose what the MC is going to say
If Aether and Lumine were real siblings:
"Oh no, it's you. I already told mom we had one less mouth to feed, idiot-"
If this was actually true, the other sibling will be like "Wait what-"
more like "hey. it's your turn to do the chores. I'm out. PEACE!"
LMAO
@@nolarpt8 Better than doing the dishes at least-
@@nolarpt8 "I can't cook....."
lunime seems a bit more ruthless after what happened to her, like she is trying to be more straight forward, while aether hesitated... it is like he isn't into this kind of business and really wants just to be with his sister, while for lumine it seems like she is really into it... it shows their personality is quite different... i like that.
Well the Opening Cutscene already kind of implied it. Lumine was the more combat-ready, Aether did show slight hesitation.
It also reflects in their Animations that Lumine seems more refined in her combat style, moving almost like dancing and overall looking like she's done this countless times.
Aether on the other hand looks like he's struggling either due to being less experienced or due to being injured.
@@MikayaAkyo I was actually thinking the same thing now that you mention it lol. Aether practically needs to use both hands to use some skills, and Lumine just one hands everything, and in some cases also use her feet cuz she badass like that lol
@@thehorizon10 Her stats are also higher than Aether's ingame not by much but still higher lol
@@C7y323 Isn’t her Base Attack higher but her Base HP lower?
@@MikayaAkyo I don’t really think he’s struggling though? It’s obvious they’re thousands of years old (Mihoyo confirmed they’re 500+ years old) and have been in many worlds so Aether being less experienced makes no sense.
I think it’s more of a fighting style kind of thing, Maybe he likes to be wild and free when fighting, Doesn’t really care much for blind spots and weak spots,Like fire ig, And uses for force then needed which makes him stagger and stumble a little.
I guess he’s just more of the aggressive twin, If you look at cutscenes with Lumine and Aether side by side, And at official arts, He’s more aggressive and fast in his actions and in his official art he looks kind of angry and looks like he’s ready to fight or is demanding someone to not get closer/ to step back, So maybe he’s more of the “Yay friendly fighting” x “I’m gonna f*cking kill you.” depending who it is and the situation while Lumine is more calm and composed.
"Lumine is colder and better as-"
I don't care, she's so wholesome as traveler
Both is good as villain tbh
Ikr
I know and some abilities are better with her but her as a villain tho 🥵 I'm kinda simping
Well half the comments say Aether is the better villain. 🤷 But still both fit the role perfectly imo.
Idk, for me she fits way better as a villain. aether is too much of a sweet heart to be a villain
I had a dream where Aether saved Lumine when she was about to die (Aether as abyss prince) then Aether destroyed all of Teyvat, because he couldn’t save her, that was sad :’(
NOOOO THIS IS SAD
@@iwnaiwjwuauwh Ikr it was so sad and paimon tried to stop Aether but Aether shoved her away
Will u take my order? :D
@@MakeSomeNoiseForNoisyBoy Ofc, what would u like lmao we have Paimon roast as our specialty
@@venti8462 YES YES PAIMON ROAST!!! and umm 1 kid meal with Large soda pls
i really love how the two of them have different personalities and the voice lines are also expressed different
like, you can hear how cold lumine is and aether is rather hurt
zach and sarah did a really great job!
yep, my thoughts exactly!
Which is why i think Aether works better as the hero and Lumine as the villain IMO. Though i must admit the reverse is prettt interesting too
@@artemis1993 I agree, I chose Aether and I’m actually loving Abyss Lumine. She’s such a badass, it just fits
Lumine is like "i have to do this, brother, "
Aether is like "sister i wish you could join me, but you have to discover your own truth..."
Amazing how the same lines can deliver so much difference in the subtext
Sarah sounds much more scarier then Zach though. That's just my opinion though.
i like the emotion aether’s version has
Side Abyss Order Leader?
I mean Zack was probably dying to do some voice lines.
@@StayFrostyX279 uninteresting male character treat, Lumine more voice line than Aether due to she said "Who're you".
@@arocomisgamusclademork1603 what?
travller aether or abyss?
When the siblings meet, Lumine is warning Aether about what Dain did in the past. She sounded angry when she found out they were a team. Aether has a more concerned tone to his voice, afraid that Lumine will get hurt by Dain. He sounded like he wanted to go back, but couldn’t due to who was there.
That’s just how I see it though. I know other people have different opinions but, please don’t yell at me for it. Thank you 😊
Lumine's story with Aether is just tragic,and idk many people like tragic,moody stories more so if you like that,Aether could the main villian.
However,Aether's story with Lumine as the villian is dark and unsettling,it all gives the feeling when you are the less skilled yet gentler one and your more exceptional sibling decides to join the dark forces by her own will and you are a so helpless on contemplating how to bring her back because you know you can't win no matter what you do. Damn..
for me prince abyss gives me goosebumps like honestly. he's so cold whenever I saw him as prince abyss
@@bavanii.8334 why are you saying this in this comment?
@@black-nu6wi Yeah, I agree. That guy's comment is everywhere and it's like he convince us that Aether as MC have better story than Lumine. For me, it's the same thing just we have our own POV.
@@ailumi9324 he just said as how he thinks it
I choose aether as my traveler
Goddammit, he is so good as a villain here
Does mean Aether is like Anakin Skywalker?
I chose him to be a traveler too. SMH I really need to see more prince Aether.
@@shikosworld6160 I hate Aether side Abyss Order. Looks boring uninteresting plot
@@arocomisgamusclademork1603 I think it's better. Depends on which kind of Villians you like. If you want a broken, Vader kind of villian, choose Lumine as your main character. If you want a cold, calculating, Thrawn like Villian, choose Aether as your Main character.
@@aiosquadron I don't prefer right those siblings are antagonist and main protagonist
Having Aether, the softer sibling, as the villain is definitely the more interesting scenario for me. Imagine how sassy and straightforward Lumine is until she discovers that her brother turned to the dark side although it's extremely unfitting for such a sweetheart like him. It's kinda heartbreaking to think about.
Edit: Wait woah woah i didn't expect this comment to get attention cbxbdhs just to clarify, it's just an hc of mine. I also like the idea of abyss princess lumine tbh. I'd play the twin i didn't choose in a separate account and enjoy the story just as much.
IKR IF I KNEW THE OTHER SIBLING WAS GONNA BE THE VILLIAN I WOULD DEF PIC LUMINE GODDAMN IT
I actually love both concept, because Lumine is gonna more determined to get her brother back and why he join such thing, while aether wouldn't really care why his sister join the dark side and just want his sister back
I agree, having the cold twin as the hero is much more interesting too (if only mihoyo could make them talk)
I think the same way
I was tricked by the Genshin trailers and thought there were different storylines depending on which twin we chose (like FE3H). At first I just went with the Aether was canon MC thing, but I started regretting choosing him.
Aether is an adorable sunshine boi and I love him to death, but I was so drawn towards Lumine being the Traveler and Aether the Abyss Prince. The “sister saves brother” trope appeals to me more than the commonly seen “brother saves sister”. So yeah now I wish I chose Lumine T-T
PLEASE LOOK AT HOW SAD LUMINE AND AETHERS FACES IMMGOING TO CRY
Sad lumine is sad
Sarah and Zach did so great!!! love their performances :)
Who are they????
@@jackphillips47 They are the voice actor of aether and lumine
Zach- Aether
Sarah- Lumine
@@jackphillips47 the voice actors
Zach also did this quest with his voice reading out the texts that's he choose in aether voice.
I find it more sad as traveler lumine and abyss prince aether tbh. Since the headcannons take aether as the soft/nice one and lumine as the sassy one it really turns the tables around if that makes sense. For example traveler lumine would think ‘if my ‘sunshine boy’ brother became this cold what kind of terrible thing is going on’ or something. Idk if this really makes sense but thats what I think
Agree
It make sense! It would be sad to see your sibling, your twin, your other half become a completely different person the time you reunited with them. It's just really not as the same as before. *What happened to you?*
I would say, if you chose Lumine in your first account, you feel like resonance Character voice filled instead doing fair twin. Those are twin, can't be Betray each other.
Yeah it has way more impact that way.
Lumine is, from the get-go, depicted as the outgoing and sassy one while Aether in the beginning Cutscene seems more passive.
Emphasized even more by Lumine being the one talking.
Not to mention she's the little sister. So it's a reverse trope from the "older brother goes into journey to save little sister". It's interesting.
Honestly, having two accounts with both travelers, they both fit the role perfectly. Lumine is secretive, and cold, but still holds some warmth. Aether sounds like he has stuff to hide as well, wicth desperation and a grudge. It's really amazing how it can be seen from both sides. Both as the traveler player fit as well.
I haven't played it and linda want to play now, but because of that I can't choose who to play 😆
Two accounts is a nice idea but I still can't choose who to main account.
Aether sounds like he’s in massive pain while Lumine is hitting us with those multiple emotions it’s too beautiful.
Aether being evil
Lumine: i’m gonna tell mom you’ve been the bad guy in this game!!
Seeing both versions hits so differently. I guess it's another cry session
Both are great as the villain. It's just that, thanks to the delivery of their lines, gives of a different feel from each other.
Lumine sounds like she is on a crusade driven by a sense of justice, and the only way to stop her is to kill her. While Aether sounds like he is only doing this because something/someone he cares about is going to get hurt if he doesn't step up, like he doesn't personally agree with the methods but sees that the Abyss Order's end goal does justify the means.
I agree,that's why I like Aether's side more. As a gentler character driven by morale,when his sister turned evil which made him helpless that's what made him step up to being able to face her. I think his story is more edgy and dark if anything. Lumine's is more tragic and has more emotion since it conveys Aether's feelings which he's not as great as the villian but more like he has no other choice but to do something. Lumine as the more experienced and skilled twin gives her the more villian vibe than the protagonist if given the chance. Aether is the lesser twin so he suddenly being the villian would be tragic while he being the MC side is dark. My opinion I guess.
Personally i like more aether as villain because is more gentler to lumine, evil lumine is like she forgot his brother and only wants to complete his goal
his?
Her*
I would go for Lumine as the villian since I am a fan of dark and a twisted side of a story rather than a tragic one. Idk why people prefer tragic stories more,cuz the dark one gives more the feels and chills. WHERE MY DARK STORY BOIS ARE AT??!
@@bavanii.8334 Me

So in the cutscenes, your sibling addresses Traveler as the canon names Aether/Lumine, instead of the name the player chooses. This means Traveler chooses to be named differently, which is odd. (Unless of course, you name yourself as the canon names.)
Is it really odd to hide your identity when you're some world travelling, probably immortal being? During this quest line and also hinted during others, we find that not only does the Traveller do stuff off-screen that we are not privy to, but they also keep a lot of knowledge and details to themselves, stuff not even paimon is told about
@@xbTHEBlackAngelbx i thought they might be hiding their identity too
To me, it felt like they gave us the option to pick a name because we lost our memories AND powers. We had no idea what was going on until we started getting our memories back. So possibly we picked a new name because we couldn’t remember our own name.
But our sibling would obviously remember our own name, so thus they call us by our name.
Evil sibling: awesome electro elemental stuff happening armed with a cool golden sword 😎
Traveller sibling: best I can do is a dull blade 🤷♀️
Virgin vs Chad.
Bruh. The Traveller Sibling blocked Raiden with the Dull Blade. That’s the Chad.
The fact that lumine speaks and moves more ruthlessly is so cool
Ikr
Really I always felt lumine's attacks were more gentle and graceful compared to aether's more aggressive and forceful ones
Why does Dain reminds me of Byakuya Togami?!
ITS THE HAIR LMAO
@@Natalie-kl5ub IK IT'S THE HAIR
Dain togami
The hair and eyes-
his hair kinda looks like Byakuya's-
Aether is soo goood as the villain! Seeing the hero-like character beinf the actual villain is way more intimidating
No no you are wrong. You know that Aether is the lesser twin,Lumine is the more exceptional amd skilled one.As Aether is a gentler character driven by morale,when his sister turned evil which made him helpless that's what made him step up to being able to face her. Hiss story is more edgy and dark af if anything. Lumine's story is tragic so Aether isn't the intimidating villian since he's broken in the inside and has no other choice but to turn back from his sister so I don't think because he's the 'hero character' makes him a more 'intimdiating villian' ,his gentle personality what fleshed him out more.
Lumine is far worse and she DEFINITELY as you called the 'intimidating villian'. She can be ruthless,she know what's she's up to and because she's more superior,that's what made Aether scared to face off against her. But deep down,villian Lumine still loves Aether and decided not to hurt him but she's still willing for persue the power. It could be interesting how it might turn out in the end. Maybe she might protect Aether,would be on the verge of death,realises what she has done and apologises to Aether for being a bad sibling. (Also who knows,maybe Paimon would be the main antagonist all along,jk hahah)
Aether's POV would do that the best.
@@bavanii.8334 Aether villain is much more intimidating to my feels! Cause its like aw cute babey and then you learn this sad back story and its like NO MAH BABEY. Also I love Lumine as Hero cause of what you said, she isnt the goody two shoes guy or the girl next door, but still tries her best to help everyone!
But everyone has a diff opinion, no one is wrong or right, after all this whole personality thing is more based on our biases with their voices than their canon personality, wich is both are the same.
@@carlamartinezmangas4112 I know lol. It's just based on preferences,and like I told your,if you choose Aether,you story would be edgy and dark like most shounen animes while Lumine's side it would be more of a tragic and emotional tone. If I say I am not a fan of Lumine,I would be lying cuz I also like her and her crass attitude and her powerful skills and abilities what makes her a great villain but also a great support when it comes to dealing her brother's troubles. Aether's side gives off how inexperienced and clumsy you are as the main character and you have to face off against a person much more superior than you in a degree who has completely devoted herself to evil but still cares about you deep down leading to a stray and complicated personality. So I don't like seeing Aether as the villain due to his gentleness and the way he's inexperienced doesn't stand out if you are playing as Lumine who rivals the best against Aether every single way.
Since I am an Aether main so it's coming from a person who likes dark edgy stuff lol.
Edit:Also it's stated Aether is the canon protag(makes sense tho) so I think it's best if I roll with him.
@@bavanii.8334 it's their opinion bruv
@@bavanii.8334 It's their preference bruh
I chose Lumine as my traveller but I prefer her as the villain lmao

3:24 Lumines eyes look cold and angry
7:11 While Aethers looks like he's saying "I'm sorry..."
They both fit the role very well!
I like abyss lumine more she has of a more vilian vibe and im all here for it!
I also loved aethers abyss princess role, the difference between the twins personaility.
I love both lumine and aether as traveler but if its for the abyss role i think ill choose aether for lumine to be abyss princess.
Lumine makes it seem like she has a duty as queen of the Abyss.
Meanwhile Aether made it sound like he was forced to do his duties.
Either way, it's very sad.
Still, Paimon turns protagonist of the journey, as the traveler is mute
With the way they say "we've always had enough time." And that the evil sibling says they've traveled through this world before, I'm willing to bet it's a time loop.
Like whichever sibling you're playing as will become the evil one for the next loop, retaining memories of their travels, and vice versa.
I'm most likely entirely wrong, but it is a thought to consider.
. . .
so those "dreams" of me dying before as an abyss princess...was all real?
wow thats an interesting thought (no sarcasm)
I feel like this game is going to pull an Undertale-like situation with the god of time if they even exist
Lumine sounds so sad as the Villain
She sounds like she wants to forget her place and just run towards her brother, crying.
But she can't.
It's like she's apologizing for her inability to do so, her inability to run towards her brother and hug him.
But she turns away and leaves her brother, yet again.
Yes I agree with that-
Of course they have different personalities but that doesn't mean the 'Cold' Lumine wouldn't have any remorse towards her brother.
She sounds the fukin opposite wtf lmao...
Personally Lumine seem more colder and evil than Aether
Agreed, Lumine plays the role pretty good.
Yup I agree with you aswell, Even the EVERYWHERE MAN is on our side more POWAH!
I agree
@@Nightvss that was so cringy to read lmfao
@@TheLemoncakee Say a that you prefer lumine without saying it
I love the fact that Aether, even as the villain, is the softer of the two, because you can clearly see how sad he is, while Lumine stays cold and collected as the Abyss Princess. I'm really glad I choose her as the mc, I love the concepts of the cold hero and girl saves boy
🌸🌹It is to be remembered one of Genshin’s best moments, and immortalized as one of its keystone moments that shook the community to its core. One of the moments that put those of us Genshin Enthusiasts on notice, that we not escape the emotional heartache that had touched the player base of Honkai Impact,🌹🌸
@Aether Hilichurl Destroyer 🌸😹I am to say that I am not obligated to indulge nor care for your emotional torment and fragile sensibilities. I do believe that should you be so perturbed, block or avert your gaze and seek the aid of a professional.😹🌸
Damn you're everywhere
Oh, im not suprised seeing u again
Lumine just sounds like an annoyed older sister while aether sounds like a protective brother
Aether just isnt the kind of person to be ruthless. Lumine was just so quick and straight forward and i could definitely tell shes not one to mess with, aether is hesitant, and i like that. The difference in personalities is beautiful
Somehow, Traveler Aether and Villain Aether still looks and sounds the same to me. He still sounds as gentle and nice as ever, tired and broken but desperate to do his goal.
I find his voicelines so different than when he's abyss prince in this cutscene
1:14 i can't think about anything else but aether’s eyes. HE IS SO CUTE.
YES
look what i found. sadists.
I chose aether as a traveller, and I just finished this quest yesterday, seeing aether so hurt at meeting lumine for the first time but knowing that she was with the abyss, ngl I cried lol
But damn aether as the prince 😢
I fucking love a villain where they look like they still have doubts and this inner turmoil inside them, and not straight up evil and BAD bad? Not surprising that I also shed tears after watching his cutscene as a prince
Yes fr I like the idea of aether being the abyss twin because he doesn’t sound so evil and hateful
Edited somethings abiut my headcanons for Lumine, Nothing important.
(LONG POST)
Tbh, In my opinion, I feel like the twins were designed to fit every role I could think off, Mysterious/Important side character we barely see, Playable character, Protagonist, Antagonist, Etc.
I prefer evil Aether more, He seems more upset and broken, And intimidating, As if he had no other choice, And angry at what ever happened and whoever caused it, While Lumine seems more disappointing and cold, Clearly also upset but isn’t as expressive as Aether, As if the truth of the world piercing through her like a sword.
I also like to headcanon, Instead of Aether being the soft boy and Lumine being sassy/cold like the fandom agreed on, They’re both similar in their own way, Obviously, Immortal people wouldn’t be nice forever, Eventually they’ll grow tired and bored of living, After seeing thousands of bloodshed, Humanity growing and disapearing in every world, Their friends and lovers eventually dying, And foolish mortals and Gods alike, They probably lost touch of humanity, With only little sanity left in them
I like seeing Aether being the sadistic/masochistic boy, Kinda like Childe, He’s bored of being strong, So having his powers stripped off and meeting stronger people made him delighted, Thrilled for battle, I also like to imagine him being impatient in battle, More fast, Mostly jumping in without a thought, He doesn’t believe in weak spots, “Everything will hurt if you’re strong enough.” Is what he thinks, So he’ll focus on dodging and defending Lumine, And is quick witted and fast, But rough and staggered, He wants his enemies to perish in the most fast yet painful way possible, No time to even tell their loved ones goodbye, Because by the time they realize it, They’re already dead.
Towards strangers/people he doesn’t trust, He’d be cruel and cold, But towards friends, He’s more gentle albeit teasingly(is that a word?)
While Lumine is just 100% sadistic, Personalitywise she’s more distant and aloof, But awkward too, She’s patient and caring once you get too now her but kind of a tsundere( not the violent ones, Just isn’t honest with her feelings) And is kind of naive, In battle, She’s more slow, Would rather observe her opponents attack patterns, Taking the time to remember, Then look for open spots/weak spots, But would often forget to dodge/defend her self, Leaving Aether no other choice but to defend her and himself, Just like Elizabeth Midford from black butler/Kuroshitsuji, The ways she fight’s is elegant, Like a ballerina, She wants to kill her opponents in the most slow and painful way possible, Giving them some hope left, Believing they’ll survive, Then finish them off.
The way she acts towards strangers/people she doesn’t trust is the same as Aether, But acts as if she trusts them to catch them off guard if they prove to be a threat, Her friends probably met her through Aether since she thinks friends and love is a waste of time, But really, She’s just afraid of leaving them and being forgotten, Or them dying.(While Aether is more afraid of forgetting them or killing them.) So the rare chances she has friends, She’s more awkward and shy, But is slightly more expressive and confortable after a while.
I personally like the villain type who is kinda like a cheshire cat, Teasing, Two faced, Yet deep down, They know it isn’t right, But they have no other choice but to do it, And near the end, They end up being a pawn for the final boss, Aether kinda gives off those vibes, + I feel like Lumine suits the hero role more since her aesthetic, And Abyss Prince Aether sounds more cool/evil then Abyss Princess Lumine.
Also, If you look at their official arts, Aether’s brows are slightly furrowed, Kinda like he’s frustrated or angry, And his eyes seem sharp, Plus he looks like he’s ready to fight or demanding someone step back, While Lumine’s expression seems more neutral/bubbily, So I kinda just based of my headcanons by the way they fight, Sound, Look and expressions.
These are all just headcanons and opinions, You don’t have to think the same, As long as you aren’t pushing your own opinion/headcanons on to other people, Calling other opinions/headcanons “wrong” and spreading false information and telling others that yours are canon.
I am personally tired of seeing sassy/cold Lumine and soft boy Aether, Theres no way Aether can be soft after years of living and seeing blood and war in every world they’ve lived in, But I also don’t think Lumine can be aloof and cold to everyone including her friends and only love her brother(not romantically.) But those are just personal opinions and I won’t attack you for liking those type of headcanons.
I love the subtle personality differences, it really makes it worth the choice between the siblings.
5:45 Ah yes, Lumine exposing Aether on Twitter while he explains the plot.
*DISCORD NOTIFICATION*
I just hope the twins at this game get to be together in the end
cut scenes it’s just so sad
"We have always... had enough time"
Why do I have a feeling that this phrase has something related to the god of time?
This is the most I've seen aether speak in a cutscene since I picked him
Feeling glad i chose Aether as my main. That angst when he's the villain i-
can't handle it , ok ?
I also love the irony of the princess wearing white when she's "with the bad guys" and she sounds so empowered and ready to fight. i love it xD
Lumine seems to fit the role of the evil abyss twin better because she looks and seems more cold, but to me it’s disturbing to see Aether, someone so wholesome and gentle, turn cold and evil. I may be biased since I chose Lumine, but seeing them side by side that’s what I got from here
Its probably just me, but I feel like Aethers voice overall feels more suited for the main character than Lumine's and Lumines voice seems perfect for the main villainess. Both did amazing jobs, but I think Lumine as evil was more fitting than of Aether as evil. Just my opinion.
Based on these two points, it's concluded to be a matter of preference.
Lumine's story with Aether is just tragic,and idk why many people like tragic,moody stories more so if you like that,Aether could the main villian.
However,Aether's story with Lumine as the villian is dark and unsettling,it all gives the feeling when you are the less skilled yet gentler one and your more exceptional sibling decides to join the dark forces by her own will and you are a so helpless on contemplating how to bring her back because you know you can't win no matter what. Damn..
So yes it's simply based upon preferences.
evil Lumine sounds like she will step on your face XD
Aether’s too gentle to be a good villain in my opinion, Lumine was designed perfectly for that description. I had a feeling the traveler in the OG story was meant to be Aether, but I had no idea until Thoma referred to traveler as ‘he’, so if that doesn’t prove Lumine was made for the role of abyss princess idk what will.
@@velvet_violet well a lot of the misuse of pronouns is due to it being a mistake, not intentional
I had this dream yesterday when we reached the end of the game. It was a final battle (idk what we were fighting against) an Lumine transformed into the unknown god and Aether transformed into fricking Xiangling. Hella weird dream ik 🤷🏻♀️
I chose Aether, and i love Lumine as the Abyss sibling. Ruthlessness and intimidation suits her well, though you can still tell she cares for her brother like he does for her. You can tell she's devoted to her part, whilst Aether seems reluctant.
Is it just me or does Paimon sounds more aggressive than how she normally sounds when she's suprised and shocked...? Or did nothing change?
she's just hungry
So uhm who cried doing this quest? :,)
me
Me T~T
I screamed
Almost.
Im a freakin adult! My kid got me into this game. She sat next to me during this. She knew what was gonna happen. She sat there smiling at me. And he showed up and I was like 'yay! Brother' and then 'ohw no, brother'.. and ofcourse I cried, I cry over everything. And kid was all ' I knew you would cry'. And after a bit I was mad. Like, he could just have told us the full story and save us the journey. We were prepared to leave this world behind in a flash for him. We would have believed wgatever he said, no questions asked.. but nooooo let us risk our life over and over just to come to a conclusion he already reached!
I love aether as either but their dialogues are completely different, aether seems forced lumine seems like she’s seeking revenge, I love evil lumine
Aether seems better as the villain ngl
Both are cool tho
i actually got an ad where you could see a part of the story as evil Lumine 's viewpoint it was pretty cool
It's so sad that the other sibling tries so hard, and yet their home is like the sun, always there but out of reach.
The "we've always had enough time." really keeps bugging me...
After this chapter, with story from Dain, i don't feel like calling it "evil". We only standing and understanding it from one side of perspective where on the "evil" side, the traveler's sibling has more info and experience of the journey of what we still not yet discover.. And also, i wanna hear the story from the archon side as well..
I’m very late, but I believe that they’re both good villains, it just honestly depends on personal preference!
With Aether as the protagonist and Lumine as the antagonist, the story feels more dark, cold, and scary. Lumine’s quite intimidating, and, as you’ve probably seen many people say, colder. She seems to think that the world has wronged her, and now she’s furious at it. She also seems more angry at the fact that Dain and Aether teamed up. Additionally, she seems to be the stronger one of the two- her attacks automatically have more power, and the animations suggest that she’s incredibly strong, and a lot of what she does is almost effortless.
With Lumine as the protagonist and Aether as the antagonist, the story feels a lot more tragic. Aether seems like he’s broken. He seems like he’s disappointed in the world, rather than angry at it, like he’s been through bad things that broke him. It’s almost like he just wants to be with his sister, but he knows he has to do what he’s doing. He seems more concerned that Dain and Lumine teamed up. He’s better at movement and climbing than his sister. His attacks seem to take a bit more effort, and he’s just a shade less powerful.
I’ve noticed that there’s a slight difference in their expressions and animations during cutscenes; how they hold themself, slight changes in their faces, between the two.
Mihoyo does mainly portray Aether as the protagonist and Lumine as the antagonist in their manga/official artwork, but honestly, it’s just up to preference for who you choose to play as.
While I love both dynamics, I play Aether as the protagonist because I simply prefer the character and model.
He also just gives me main character vibes- again, personal preference!
Feel free to reply to me on this with your own opinions as long as it hasn’t been months since I wrote this comment. Just keep it polite!
I don't care if Aether's the canon protag, Lumine will always be the real protag for me :)
Doesn't it depends on which character you choose. How is aether the protagonist
@@sickegless9years452 its actually cannon for aether to be the protagonist, and lumine is the evil twin.
nah,he's not,im pretty sure mhy has said (in a qna event or smth) whoever you choose is canon for you :] they just use aether for promotional purposes^^ bc they've used lumine sometimes as traveler too
@@yuyi5477 He isn't, they are both equally canon. They use Aether for promotional videos as they must choose one twin, and not alternate through them, as it would be confusing.
@@wisteria7961 Thank you, He isn't they use Aether for promotional videos as they must choose one twin, and not alternate through them, as it would be confusing.
Me choosing lumine as my protagonist while enjoying evil aether twin
I like evil aether more i think, its just, evil aether is gentler than lumine and thats my friend! Is! A! Perfect! tragedy! I! love! Good! tragedy!
Lmao gentle and evil doesn't belong in the same sentence 😂.
And that's why aether is more suited to be the protagonist cuz even as the evil twin he still sounds gentle and innocent and whereas lumine as the evil twin already connects the dots properly, sassy and a cold voice and even the plain white outfit compliments her to the evil side and whereas is already giving the good ol your classic anime protagonist with the blonde long hair and the gold outfit with a crop top 😂
@@Wolf-bb1ex well, i'm a sucker for a villain with softie mask, the contradiction just scream great tragedy. we left to imagine what world do to that softie to became a villain so, i cant help it🤣 *but yeah, usually they dont belong in the same sentences
@@Nightvss ahh... yes, classic anime protagonist with long blond hair & crop top, a good ol one, i see you point🤣
@@erbiis9961 I mean he's even shown as the mihoyo preferable and canon MC of the story aswell 😂, that speaks alot and if your gonna say they chose aether for they're trailers just because they had to select a twin and wing with it, in order not to confuse the audience instead of simultaneously switching the twins animated screentime equally. Then I wonder why cuz not long before the game was launched they had been using lumine as they're MC for the first few trailers and then suddenly out of the blue they ditched her as the Protagonist in they're trailers 😂💔and now they're using aether as the right MC and kept on continuing with him and still is HEH XD and even the official manga they had aether as the MC
Abby’s prince Aether sounds more emotional and more realistic in my opinion it’s sounds like he still cares for his sister and want to be reunited soon (after her journey’s end) but as abby’s princess Lumine she just sounds cold and like only think abt her goal doesn’t really cares abt Aether and meanwhile Aether looks like a kind and sweet person and lumine is the more serious one it would be nice to see the way Aether change into this begin more serious and lumine is just surprised the way he changed after looking for him a long time it would make it’s making it more interesting in my opinion
I Never regret to choosing Lumine and proud 😁✌️
Being a brother myself, I kinda understand Aether's hesitation like "I really miss you and want to protect you more but this is what I gotta do first to protect you in a better way" vibe in his villain arc, I feel good that I chose him to be the Abyss twin because istg if my sister gets that cold, imma be hurt :3
**this is when i realized i should’ve picked aether instead of lumine to see villain lumine**
Wait during those 500 years when the villain was exploring, was the mc just asleep? Did they hit their head or smth?
evil bitch of a goddess said "fuck it, one of you is gonna go in a coma" while we were fighting her, and guess who got unluckily into a comatose...
I chose Aether as a traveler, aside from his cool braids caught my eyes, is because I like the idea of brother rescuing sister, but now I started to regret. I mean, Aether makes a great protagonist, close to my imagination and role model but after knowing that the "Evil one" is actually the one knows more, been through more I kinda want to change my decision tho.
I came back to check but the voice dialogue really does sugest that the traveler would immideatly leave this world if the siblign said yes. The traveller doesn't care about this world like the abyss sibling. The traveller has just started making some friends and yeah they would help them if they were in danger, but if the abyss sibling would call they'd come.
The Inazuma voice lines just mark this. Traveller si getting colder and is angry at their siblign for refusing to leave.
I have a feelign that we will see a lot more of this frustration if the traveller doesn't find soemthing that wants to make them stay. I'm excited, I really want a more emotional traveller.
In a way, it sounds like Dainsleif is obsessed with chasing after Abyss Traveler. But after finding out about what happened and the Archons being behind it.. I started feeling like I cannot trust them. Now I see what Dainsleif meant.. *stares at Zhongli's butt in betrayal*
Seeing this I kind of wish I chose Aether as traveller. I really like how Lumine’s cold voice is befitting for her to be the villain/“Abyss twin”. Although a lot of people clearly enjoy the contradiction between Aether’s less aggressive, softer spoken voice and his role as the Abyss twin, personally, I like to match his soft tone with the curious and helping nature of Traveller.
Regardless, the difference between the voice acting is so interesting to analyze
I never saw this from Aethers perspective lol She sounds so much more determined as a villain😂😭
Idk why but I feel like Lumine just fits the villain type with Aether being the hero type :0
Either would be a good villain tbh they both have a big impact
while i agree that it's more heartbreaking to see aether as the abyss prince, as a traveler aether in all my games i just can't see him like that 😭.
They should have atleast made aether/lumine speak with voice during this encounter
Both did a good job, I like them both
I choose Lumine as my traveler, Aether being the Villain is a big twist here and I live for it
honestly this is just heartbreaking, traveler spent so much time looking for their twin but just as they found the twin, the twin turned out to be evil and just leaves??? like what is this
Aetherr supremacy ❤️❤️
Twin supremacy 🖐😩💕💕
Ngl, this scene still hits me like a truck. The first time I saw this, it gave multiple question on top of the question I already have.
Lumine feels more cold and villain like, whereas Aether nails the tragic fallen hero sibling vibe
I'm guessing the final boss battle is Lumine/Aether
nope, it's a VERY cranky paimon
This part really made me feel so much emotions, as if I'm the traveler 🥺
I just realized that underneath Dainsleif's cape looks like Paimon's cape.
WAIT WHAY THE HELL
I don't regret choosing Lumine as my mc, but she really fits well as the antagonist
i literally main her fr shes awesome as mc
I think Aether's design fits a villain way better. The contrast between light and dark colors, plus all the flowing bits, makes him seem more villainous and intimidating.
The Comparison be like
Lumine:🧊
Aether:😮😠😔
Abyss Lumine: Evil but with reasonable vengeance
Abyss Aether : Tragic/Fallen hero
THE DISCORD NOTIFICATIONS ACTIVATED MY FIGHT OR FLIGHT
Their personalities are different making it harder to make out who's the better villain but overall I prefer abyss Lumine.
They both have their own merits. To me, Aether’s has a lot more than that of Lumine’s, makes him the better Abyss Twin in my opinion.
Oh well, agree to disagree.
@Gel that's cool dude 😎
@@nashwolf1731 Not a dude, dude 🤣
But let’s simply agree that Genshin Impact is nothing less than being the greatest game of all time! (Or at least ONE of the greatest)(or not, you decide, because like I said agree to disagree😃)
Abyss Lumine be scary
Seeing Lumine as the villian in his cutscene feels weird-
Poor Aether, having to find out his sister has turned evil and is trying to stop the Abyss.
Man I felt sad when I watched this the first time on my own and now seeing it again is still sad T_T
