Dw about it rest is more important nodnod
Imma join you on the news for rioting if that happens
Signora had a lot of background lore going for her and the death was just so sudden that it wasn’t fulfilling enough for the story in my opinion. Mhy could’ve done so much more with her and let us uncover a bit more of her backstory with the main story but apparently not- Justice for all our villainous angels and Teppei
Give em all the headpats and kisses, hold their face in your hands and tell them you’re holding the world in your hands, shower them with love and affection and drown them in it—
Now back to our regular rambling because hooooo man I have a lot to say about Signora’s death and Inazuma’s writing as a whole.
Her death was entirely for shock value. There was no real reason for her to die, at all. And it felt like after she died, it was just swept up under the rug and it wasn’t brought it up again after the arc ended. And that’s what annoyed me the most.
There is no consequence for what happened in the Inazuma arc. Raiden wasn’t given any repercussions, in fact she was given a date with us for her story quest. What? What? No. No there was just nothing, we treated Raiden like nothing happened and we were all friendly when her country was falling apart because of a vision hunt decree she issued. And you can argue that the fatui had a part in it, but Ei has been proven to not be stupid, she at least had some idea of what was going on. She might have an innocent disposition, but at the end of the day, she is an archon and a god and if she fell for the fatui’s tricks then I’m sorry but it just proves she’s not a very good character to begin with. What was it with Inazuma women being written to be smart but then proving to be the exact opposite?
Because Kokomi did the same thing. She was supposed to be this master strategist but she didn’t question her soldiers buying random weapons from an unknown source? The writing was such a mess. It felt like two different teams were working on it, had different ideas, but they rushed it and meshed it all together, and most of it just does not work. I don’t like Raiden as a written character and it’s the same with Kokomi. With the next patch that might change but I’m not that hopeful. Both of them were extremely promising characters but ultimately was let down by poor writing, and it’s disappointing. Inazuma wasn’t all bad, I thought the act when we face Raiden for the first time was,,, really really good. And Kazuha, Beidou, Gorou and Kokomi’s appearance was a really good moment. But after that, it falls apart and the only good memorable moment for me was Kazuha’s friends vision lighting up again.
By the way, if you disagree with me, that’s completely fine this is just my opinion, so don’t worry if you have opposing opinions !! But for me, the last act of Inazuma, Kokomi and Raiden were all extremely disappointing and I think it was all rushed and it showed. They just didn’t know what to do,,,
But it’s so confusing because Albedo’s limited time event was probably some of the best writing in the game so far? Maybe not the best, but for Genshin it was up there. I’m glad that event happened because I was suffering from burn out bad with Inazuma,,, and Rubedo was an interesting character and I think both he n Bedo fed the simps well hehe >:)
And as for Scara,,, I just hope they treat him better than Signora. Such a compelling character, I don’t want MHY to just,,, waste that, you know?
oh wow sorry this was so long but this has been waiting to come out for a while !!
But yes, smother villainous angels with love, they deserve it, idc if they’re sociopaths they’re getting a kiss mwah
