Mavuika drip marketing has finally been released, but many players dislike her because she uses a motorcycle. Fans are confused and find it illogical since motorcycles in Genshin are considered too modern compared to the aesthetic of Teyvat’s technology. In Honkai Impact 3rd, Himeko once used a motorcycle, but no one complained because its aesthetic matched the world of that game. So, the core issue lies in the civilization’s setting. Genshin is a fantasy game, so the developers have the freedom to incorporate any elements into it.

Issue:
-Fontaine was established to be the most tech-advance nation.
-Even if you argue that Natlan was cut off, most of the people there use sticks and swords with Xilonen (or whatever) making shit for people. So unless you’re tell me that she can make that advance stuff..then yeah, I say that a motorcycle is out of place.
-Comparing it to wakanda is very bad. One reason being the controversy stuff (I’m not gonna open that can of worms but you get the idea) but the biggest reason is Wakanda is a mixture of tech and natural stuff. Natlan is just cultural with very little tech, so it still doesn’t make sense.
-They have a war going on in Natlan, why the hell would the character make a motorcycle for the archon rather than advance weapons that could probably propel the darkness away? Make it make sense. Even if the motorcycle was already made, why would you use in a time of war????
Fantasy game or not, the logic is not making sense even in game terms. And for people saying “oh but people were talking about her having a motorcycle”, the last I’ve seen people make those comments were to complain about her looking like a leader of a motorcycle gang or making jokes about her counter part.
At this point I’m getting frustrated…
Also to note: I don’t want to hear about the flying gun. Easily that can be chopped up to the character going to Xilonen (or whatever), getting her gun upgraded and her vision mashing up with her weapon or so. But I can see use of a flying gun or climbing drill over a motorcycle any day..
Fontaine mechas? No problem. Sumeru gundams? No problem. Sentient androids? No problem. Literal flying steampunk submarine aircraft carrier? No PrObLeM. Kachina's industrial mining rig? No problem. A motorcycle? *Hold the fck up*.
scaramouche robot, Khaenri'ah technology from 500 years ago,jade chamber,Xianyun toys,etc🗿
The only real thing that I’ve been disliking recently is how clunky Natlan character gameplay feels, but even then that’s just a personal preference of mine. I probably won’t be pulling for Mavuika since she’ll probably be as clunky as Xilonen felt for me, but there’s no issue with the motorcycle. It is a bit out there, but I don’t judge.
I can see the:
-marketing released
-ppl will hate her
-release in game
-players will love her for being OP
So…. Can i get a character that have a10 warthog?
ah yes, a woman with uncommon clothes and a motorcycle is VERY advanced compared to guns, alchemy, the technology of sumeru and literal ROBOTS working for people in Fontaine. But, no, no, she's too advanced for teyvat.. please people, it's a game.
It makes sense but it really doesn’t suit the game. Fontaine is said the most technologically advanced nation, and it’s believable because the technology used/referenced is from the 19th century, during the Industrial Revolution, so it isn’t too close to our technology, and it reflected in their surrounding. The games surroundings doesn’t match up with the sudden use of modern technology, I mean Ei and Yae Miko still use birds to communicate, people in liyue still use wagons to move around, mondstadt still uses horses to get around. The only reason why it’s believable in Wakanda is because their nation actually shows they are technologically advanced, but natlans use of philogenstien doesn’t reflect in their environment. Y’all can say the it make since because of philogenstien, but you can tell that they didn’t even put much thought for the sudden use of modern technology and threw in there and know y’all would just eat it up. It’s not a serious issue, it is a fantasy game, but if a fantasy game has a certain aesthetic, they should follow it. Honestly, it probably wouldn’t such a issue if they made everything seem a bit more fantasy-esuqe. Like how they did with the Akasha terminal. The power coming from irminsul.
I love that you have Shadow in the video
Hopefully we get an Akira slide reference from her even once.
W Marvel analogy
Mavuiia has come from future ❤❤❤
As you can See in Honkai Impact the rule is only Herrscher in future but only Himeko uses A Bike after she Becomes a vermilion. but while in Genshin Only Pyro can summons a motorcycle just like in Ghost Rider Movie…
People complained that only Playable Characters have this technology, yeah like in Sumeru where sumerians uses spears and swords ,and their playable brat with giant god robot
Puny westernerds DONT MESS with dawei's WIFE
Fantasy is supposed to be a genre WHERE YOU CAN FREELY IMAGINE WHAT YOU WANT
You could say mavuika has khanrea technology
BRO HER MODERCYCLE FLY'S WHAT YOU MEAN MODERN? 💀
"mavuika is too modern for genshin"
we literally have an android that is pretty much human in the form of katheryne but yea, a motorcycle is immersion breaking lmao
Well, I generally dislike Natlan modern-ish aesthetic, but if people like it, it's fine, to each their own.
Like legit, the solution to the "problem" is just don't pull her and move on with the rest of your life. This game can't cater to just your one fantasy, the rest of the community have our own. Especially for us HI3 players that have been waiting forever for Himeko reincarnated, getting a bike with her is a big nostalgia trip. (I know the eva collab was not that old but genshin was still very new then)
The motorcycle is cool af, this community just likes complaining about everything
Genshin sucks after inazuma
The motorcycle's design is a complete asspull. It's not the motorcycle itself, because Fontaine could have automobiles with their technology. But there aren't even cars in Genshin, and cars predate motorcycles. So yes, it is absolutely out of place as a Honkai style motorcycle.
Either it's not from within Teyvat or the devs just did it for cool factor.
I love her design but the motorcycle just feels so out of place especially when she’s next to the rest of the archons
idk it’s just so random
Complaining about the Pyro Archon using a motorbike while we have Wanderer piloting a literal giant robot
If natlan is that advance can y'all imagine how advanced khaenariah would be that even celestia decide to destroy it💀
Theres a fucking flying gun, and a mechanical drill, and a guy with pixels, a girl with a DJ board and ROBOTS, and a (most likely phlogiston) (or made by xilonen) motorcycle is what they’re pissed about?
Yea, tbh I found chasxas flying guns a bit of a stretch. A motorbike is way too far, IMO, and cheveruse and clorindes guns are the edge of what I'd find logical.
So tell me, in all teyvat there are ancient giant robots, ruins with complex mechanisms, santient robots ecc.. and now a motorcycle is too much?
If we're being honest, Natlan isn't modern at all. The flying gun and most probably the motorcycle too are an invention of xilonen.
Natlan in general is not that advanced.
So we can say that xilonen is a genius in an unevolved nation.
No such thing as "too modern" for a "fantasy/fictional" world.
Fantasy games also have to make sense. Unlike Khaenri'ah or Fontaine, the country looks advanced, so it's natural they have advanced equipment. Look at Natlan, the country looks like it was in the past, there is no modern or advanced technology, suddenly Mavuika is riding a motorbike, which doesn't even exist in Fontaine even though it is more advanced. Look at the Khaenri'ah robot, it's looks like an old robot design, not like a Gundam or something like that… In essence, the character's skill is inversely proportional to the form of the region That's what is being protested And it's natural that it was strange from the start, but it's gotten even stranger since Chasca, Mavuika was released, it doesn't make sense Fantasy is also not made haphazardly.. Except for all that, there will be a reason for it to be touched upon in the lore.. The motorbike is too modern, the chasca is still okay, it's just like a weapon that has been given an elemental. Is that what you think bro? Because she is Archon Pyro, God of War, his expectations are like Kratos… but instead she rides a motorbike that looks too big. and the strangest thing is that Ciltali knows his skills and bursts using a pillow? The worst character in Genshin
Not freaking Fontaine having a god damn train
Sometimes I feel like they copied that one motorcycle boss in wuwa Inferno Rider
But I’m not tryna start and argument
Here's a Solution… *Magic Bike*
Not only do they have unlimited energy, they have the cultural taboo of leaving natlan. Thats why this isn't widespread. The world building still works.
I feel Natalan steals what made Genshin special in comparación to honkai star rail and honkai impact, instead of just futuristic vibe it had more of that old town beautiful scenery asthetic that made it stand out against the other games I just feel like it’s becoming another honkai impact clone it’s loosing its identity.
Phlogistan wings, need i say more.
Whats wrong with it if u played archon quest u rember the ancient civilization the gods destroy they have robots thats just motorcycle
