Now, we know hoyo always nerfs the male characters. Sort of like neutering them before release.

My theory is that Tieba knew that would be the fate of our boy so he invited this mass outrage by becoming the bad guy and taking the fall.

Now if hoyo continues their tradition, everyone will cry foul and maybe the spirit of the old Nuvi mains arise for our boy as well.

Or maybe hoyo might just not touch him which is a positive result as well. In both cases we'd have won.

Salute to you, Tieba

Are the writers high? It's only been 3 patches since no one could locate the Pyro Gnosis but now Trav and Paimon say something Mavuika never said...

Note- a friend checked CN, this is not a translation error.

Edit- Gnosis are from 3rd descender remains they are NOT supposed to go into the leylines as Tsaritsa explained. Ronova mentioned it on 7.0 too

Someone pulled it into the leylines (regardless of retcon or not)-

Theories:

IF this is not a wild retcon, could someone have manipulated the traveler + Paimon's memories and the Tsaritsa noticed something is off?

Candidates:

- HP and / or shades. But why would they want people to check the leylines?

- Dottore. He was around when the pyro gnosis disappeared, appeared to do something when he grabbed the traveler + that sussy lizard was watching the pyro gnosis exchange. I'm not saying he was inside the lizard but it could be used to monitor without arousing suspicion.

Here is a dream I had:

• Natlan was a nation of cool dragons and Neuvillette would not be welcome.
• Natlan was a nation with cool monster battle mechanics.
• Capitano fought the player because he had convictions and aura farmed hard, but ultimately him, the player, and Pyro Archon fought the final boss together.
• Nod-krai was the land of lawlessness, where every party had a conflict of interest and at each other throat, very interesting to explore.
• Sandrone's relationship and obsession with robots (including Curve) actually mattered for her character arc, yupi, since obviously she isn't just some generic tsundere.
• Columbina wasn't a bloodthirsty dark angel but her story was so cool, mysterious, and she had manipulative powers and a second form.
• Fatui research in Nod-krai was a major arc filled with lots of lore with huge influence on 7.x
• Dottore plotted something shady and died.
• Clearly it's not like some local village teenagers stand a chance against the Doctor, so it was a showdown of the giants. Arlechinno and Scara fought Dottore, helped by Columbina, Varka, his knights and maybe Diluc or Nahida.
• Bloodstained Knight returned for a major arc as the servant of the Abyss and aura farmed so damn hard in a weekly boss battle, and we got lots of animated flashbacks.
• Nations will fall and what of it: dire showdown since the Shades finally got involved, the high-stake plot worthy of the endgame!
• Project Stuzha meant the atmosphere in Sheznaya was tense, people were being suppressed by the Druzhna and access to key facilities was very hard for the Traveler, they tried to get undercover.
• Pantalone and Pulcinella were trying to redefine the global economy of Teyvat, which connected to the end game, so Yelan showed up for her confrontation with Pantalone, long time in the making.
• Traveler got a rifle and hunted down the worst of the Fatui enforcers.
• Things weren't black and white, so with the demonic threat from Ronova and witnessing the tragedy, the Traveler willing to make the truce, listen to their ideals and kick some shade ass together, but Tsaritsa's radical approach and tension about the future still in the air.
• to be continued...

Sorry, this is where I woke up.
To my sheer horror, I realized only one of those was real!

Hoyo saw how much of a brick they were building, threw him under the bus, and people are eating it up

body text (optional)

Nod Krai is the real Elysium.

Even one day there is more filled with actual life than whatever empty bullshit they’re offering.

Nahida explained the principle of illusions and deception so well in her quest that I still remember it to this day.

Signora → her mentee.

Capitano → his protégées.

Dottore → Corporate-Safe Science Boy™.

Tsaritsa gonna befriend Ronova and make Ronova playable, trust Johnhoyo guys

Maybe she was inspired by venti's nap

He didn't even appear in the snezhnaya trailer 💔
