That 26 bit is still ringing a bell in my head but i just cant place it
12:07
Simple comedy, still funny, i am a simple man, i hear joke, i laugh
Another really funny genshin 'song' is "The Diagnoses" its a Theatra- musical number made for Hoyofair Spring ! (Its a fan based project where Hoyoverse sponsors and shows them in a official Livestream)
Even if you dont know the characters in that one- its really catchy and funny!
Perfekt Danke
Good Show
7:45 Pardon me, my good sir. What?
Ok, so you got something wrong during it Ian. The Archon war WAS the gods fighting over 7 seats, it wasn't different events
Only 26 lol!
26:37 the archon war was basically the gods saying that they had to trim how many gods there were until there was only 7 left, so it was pretty much the gods who started the archon wars (also archon is another word for genshin impact's gods).
Also turns out even weak gods dying creates a lot of collateral damage.
If I remember right, one weak god (of salt) tried to avoid fighting in the archon war, but only wound up losing land over and over again until they had barely anything left and then were killed by their own followers, which I think wound up creating some sort of explosion which turned the people nearby into salt statues
Personally, very impressed by your restraint in video length considering it is a seven minute Stupendium song.
18:26 nah stupes rejected their humanity to make a song this good
Dendro is from the Greek word for tree, so it is plant magic. Amenorrhea seems to be from the Latin word for love
27:51 the war is about the seating plan if i remember correctly. Not really sure here maybe somone can give more context
I've never actually played Genshin Impact before but this song is still a banger
I swear one of these days we are going to get a song so dense not even Stupes will be able to wrap their head around it.
I am so jealous, you have the wozzes clue
Dendro to is plant
i like how he says at the end "teyvat is one of the nations. see? i paid attention and learned."
no, teyvat is the continent that contains the 7 nations. Natlan, Fontaine, Inazuma, Sumeru, Snezhnaya, Liyue, Mondstat.
In case it wasn't clear one of the significant things about the game is the number 7. There are 7 nations, 7 elements, and 7 Archons. There are more than 7 gods, but the god that rules each nation are the archons, and the archons are also somewhat synonymous with each element, which is to say each kingdom itself represents each of the elements. The Archon of Mondstat, The Anemo Archon (God of Wind), and Mondstat being the nation of the Wind. Likewise for Liyue and Geo, Inazuma and Electro, Sumeru and Dendro, Fontaine and Hydro, Natlan and Pyro, and Snezhnaya and Cryo.
This game's lore is convoluted, I'm a lore guy so I love it but I can see why it might put others off.
29:26 "No, generally if you're being devoured by something horrific, you're kind of concentrating on that and not letting everyone else know." Unless you're a Lovecraft protagonist!
I wonder if there are people who got a better understanding of Genshin lore from this song than an understanding of rhyme schemes from Ian.
The second this came out i needed ian to react, and god has answered prayers.
Nobody caught the semi-certain mentor joke? Hes not entirely sure, thats the joke, ian, i hope you simply didnt say cause thats was hilarious .
Its actually anemo, and is pronounced (an-eh-moh). I suspect he was trying to pronounce it more line (an-ee-moh) but mixed the n and m up. With how complex this song is, it's expected of new people, but this is Stupendium. It honesty feels weird that he got got that wrong. Then again, his poppy playtime song was way off from the actual lore. This one just seems more like a minor mistake.
18:19 That is an Akasha Terminal. It is something the Dendro Archon created that pools together all the knowledge of its users. In short, it is the Internet.
This is my 6th time watching it this week alone, and i just now noticed that when it says Second Who entered the game, it also meant the actual game. That was good.
I wanna know, what would happen if you smoked that tree? Would you get high? Suddenly know everything? And if you did get high, what would it be like? I need some volunteers of course, for testing purposes.
Hey im one of the people who suggested this i wasn't actually sure hed watch it cuz i said it was bassicly a giant sponsor
The thing on his ear is called an Akasha (Ah- kah- sha). It's basically a bluetooth Google. Just cost the low low price of your dreams. And even then, depending on where you rank akademically, you still wont have access to all the knowledge available.
Also: Genshin was available on Playstation on release
It's actually "anemo", not ameno. Means wind in Greek
It's not an English exclusive thing to have words that sound the same but are written differently. If anything, there are languages with much higher percentage of these, for example Japanese.
The song is pretty accurate aside from a few minor mistakes. But the thing is it's like 2% of the lore this game has. It's REALLY massive and convoluted. And it's like only half of what it will be in the end…
I recommend Kevin Temmer’s songs, because they are good. They are animated (which Kevin is also good at) such as Delete This Tweet, Somebody Else, The Dance Party at the End of the Film (only the audio has come out currently). They are all fairly short (around 1:30) but maybe they could be with multiple ones like Tom Cardy. I recommend checking him out!
Teyvat is the continent, there are 7 countries in it. Teyvat itself isn’t a country.

What about the new jazz emu song
