I need someone to tell me wtf is happening in the Genshin developer team because why do we need Chasca to tell us 6 times in a row that her and Chuychu have a difficult relationship, misunderstandings and fight a lot but actually care for each other because "we're sisters, we grew up together. We're not related by blood but we're similar. I love her but it's hard. Also, we're sisters"
AND Ororon to tell us 10 times that "Hey look, grandma has a soft spot for you. See? Told you she only does that with YOU. Ahaha grandma lies the traveler. Hey did I mention she likes you?"
In the past we always had characters who could make you feel their bond and affection but also their rivality and misunderstanding through a few words and, most importantly, ACTIONS.
They didn't need to tell me 7 times in the same sentences that Baizhu and Hu Tao have a difficult relationship because of their life choices and beliefs.
You only need to see Arlecchino's demo to understand how much she cares for her children, you don't need to hear her say it 20 times.
The fact that Xianyun considers her disciples her daughters is something you understand the first time you see her talk with Shenhe. You don't need Shenhe to tell you "Yes, she sees me as her daughter".
They didn't have to make Neuvillette make a whole speech about how much he trusts Wriothesley and Wriothesley didn't write an essay on his esteem for the Iudex.
I only had to see a single interaction between Clorinde and Navia to understand them.
WE. COULD. SEE. ALL.THAT.
SHOW. DON'T TELL.
Genshin has always been good at this! That's good writing!
WHAT'S HAPPENING????
Did they fire all the good writers after 4.8?
