What I'm MOST EXCITED About In Genshin Impact 4.0!

wow so I just got done watching this special program it goes without saying this is a massive update we're getting an entire New World essentially obviously of course Fontaine three new characters lots of interesting mechanics to dive into new weapons new artifacts new bosses there's also something besides all of that that I'm incredibly excited for and we'll dive into all that after a quick message from today's video sponsor Opera GX are you tired of your boring ass browser well inter Opera GX here we are in their GX store with just a couple clicks you can transform your entire browser using one of these mods and today we're taking a look at the anime mod from there you can do lots of things let's go up here to the easy setup button here we can choose a custom wallpaper I got this animated hutau one here click on get more wallpapers and then they have an animated tab over here you can just browse and look through and pick one that suits your fancy it's super easy there's also some special effects with the anime mod like when you hover over something or type in the search bar you can even turn on background music there's also a really neat feature built in where you can pop out the video resize it so you can keep an eye on your favorite series while pretending to be productive the sidebar here is really helpful as well you can quickly and easily jump to many of the apps you like I find it really cool only what is necessary is brought up and not the full screen app although of course you can resize it if you want to and don't worry about all your bookmarks or saved logins they also have an amazing painless import tool to get all your info from your old boring browser over to Opera GX settings synchronization and choose what you want to import make sure to give Opera GX a try there are tons of other features we couldn't get to but it's free and easy you have nothing to lose link will be in the description as well as the pinned comment below and now back to the video so there was a bit of a pre-stream trailer here featuring the three new characters liny Lynette and friminet sorry if I completely butchered those names there's a big emphasis on magicianship in general when it comes to Fontaine and these new characters especially but yeah this version program was understandably over twice as long as their typical special programs so I'm gonna try and condense it down to what I feel like are the important interesting things starting with just Fontaine as a whole and its mechanics so they do mention that it's going to be approximately 50 50 underwater content and above ground content it does look like you move relatively slowly through the water but a couple of good things is that there's no underwater oxygen meter so you don't need to go back up to the surface for air and there's not a traditional stamina meter either you can quote-unquote Sprint but that'll use up a different special Aqua meter for all intents and purposes it is essentially a stamina meter but you don't have a timer where you have to come back up to the surface and that was a very good idea even if it's less realistic as far as underwater combat is concerned they mentioned there was no way to just bring the land combat into the water which of course makes sense like just doing Bennett burst for example how would that work underwater but yeah underwater combat's apparently going to be pretty simple you can get abilities from certain things like they show one example of getting a shield which can deflect or Parry attacks so it's going to be unique in a way but obviously very different from Land combat to actually get to Fontaine you don't need to get very far in the game you just need to complete act 3 of The prologue song of the dragon and freedom this is all within monster still so it's incredibly early on in the game essentially anyone who's not just started out will get a Teleport Waypoint directly to Fontaine whether you need to complete archon quest to get access to like a new weekly boss or other areas I don't know yet I would assume so that's usually how they do things but getting to Fontaine itself is easy there will of course be a new archon Quest chapter 4 so if you want to play that you obviously do have to get caught up and apparently all the way until version 4.2 there will be new archon quests every update but yeah let's talk about the new characters coming first of all Lainey will have a new story quest for him he's a pyro bow wielder he has a special ability with his charged attack where he'll summon a little creature called the Grim Malkin hat this taunts enemies and when it eventually expires or explodes it'll fire off a pyrotechnic strike at a nearby opponent his burst is transformative he will transform into this weird hat creature he can move around quickly and send Flames falling down his exploration passive marks exclusive Fontaine materials on the map I'm so glad they're starting with a character that does this it's pretty annoying to you know run around trying to collect new materials without a character like this lightning is the five star of this patch so he'll be a little harder to obtain but it's still nice as you can probably tell they are pretty light on the details here they didn't even talk about what his skill does and the burst was pretty vague but we at least have a bit of an idea he seems to be at least a pyro bow wielding burst DPS but without knowing more it's hard to say exactly then we have lainey's sister Lynette also a magician but more of an assistant to her brother she's an observant introvert that purposefully lives in her brother's Shadow she's an animal sword wielding 4 star she has a cool little ability here like yolan's where she can speed up and she'll unleash an enigma thrust at the opponent that she marks while in the state so again pretty similar to Yellow on I just really like characters that can move faster I guess her burst is actually similar to her brother's charged attack passive thing she'll summon one of these cats in a hat which will taunt opponents this burst is more reminiscent of like sucrose's burst since she is animal it'll absorb one of those four main elements Hydro pyro cryo or Electro and then start pulsing with that element it also fire Vivid shots that will deal damage from that element periodically and finally we have freminet his main personality is also being very introverted and being a good diver which I assume is probably important in Fontaine also a brother Delaney and Lynette so it's just kind of a whole big family he's also a bit of a hobbyist engineer tinkering with mechanisms and such and occasionally breaks them on accident but yeah from that here is a cryo Greatsword wielding 4 star his Elemental skill enters him into a purse timer state so it's a bit of a transformative skill similar to hutau and yomiya that transforms their basic attacks in his case cases normal attack will increase something called purse pressure level and also unleash waves of frost that deal cryo damage at the same time his Elemental skill itself will transform into something else and when you press his up until skill again depending on the level of this purse pressure it'll do higher and higher level attacks it sounds a little complicated but basically you use his skill to enhance his Basics and then doing Basics enhances the next cast of his skill his burst pretty much plays into this whole thing as well where it just enhances his skill further again they are very light on the details which is somewhat unfortunate especially for a character like this because it sounds really interesting he does have a nice exploration passive though essentially you can Sprint underwater longer The Aquatic stamina consumption is decreased by 35 percent when he's in your parties so you can swim faster longer but yeah those are the new characters coming it's hard to say if I'm excited for either of them to be honest because they were so light on the details obviously I will be getting and trying them all and making little showcases for all of them liny the Pyro bow user is a five star so I'm gonna guess he'll be the most exciting quote unquote but we'll see as for banners we'll have liny and yolan together alongside linet as the four star for phase one I think my ielan is perfectly fine at C1 so I'm not gonna be too sad about missing her but I know a lot of people that don't have Elon yet probably do want her so it's going to be pretty tough second phase will have zhangly and child with the new four-star friminet which is a little bit annoying because I of course want from a net but uh I don't think my jungling needs constellations and I don't personally care about child that much but for anyone that doesn't have genre jungle jungle is so amazing so I'm not sure right now if I'm gonna try and get permanent up to C6 or anything but uh when I do summon it'll probably be on the zhangly banner as usual a new five-star bow to go alongside the new five-star character this will of course be liny's signature weapon aptly named the first great magic again zero details on what this boat does in the next section they talk a lot about the landscape you know World building mechanics there are these really cool dancing robots I guess called Mecca you do fight it it looks like some sort of Boss very interesting and unique looking like combat experience there there's a massive waterfall in Fontaine and they were describing some technical challenges about how to make this work with the rest of tavat really to make everything sort of on the same field the underwater sections are very colorful and vibrant and smooth rounded surfaces so it's just Pleasant to explore and look at really we will have another new boss called the Emperor of fire and iron again whether this is a like materials boss or a weekly boss I don't know yet I'm assuming this dude is material boss because we have a new five-star pyro character and you'll probably need those mats but who knows moving on to events now their main one is called Mega Mecca melee as usual for their main events it'll basically consist of several smaller events this first one is essentially underwater parkour I think this will be nice just to get a feeling for the mechanics of swimming and all that so looks fine next sub event is basically just combat which again I think is good just to like get a feel for you know the different sorts of enemies going on gives you a chance to fight them while of course completing you know event objectives and getting rewards so it's nice next section looks fun but I am an absolute sucker for rhythm games I don't think I need to describe this event you can see what's happening you just gotta bash these things on the right and left in time with whatever song is playing I just described it anyway but what else am I supposed to say yeah looks fun though next event is called Relic records again this feels very much like an introduction to Fontaine event you're going around collecting specific materials or defeating specific enemies it's just a good thing to kind of get familiar with Fontaine and the world and I think it's a good starting event honestly next event is studies in light and Shadow it's basically a picture taking event we've had these before again a very fitting event for the introduction to a new area really and finally for events in version 4.0 we have verdict of blades there are both mechanics there are difficulty selectors very standard stuff for a combat event but I'm not complaining once you reach adventuring 25 you just get a free line nut from the event page so that's really nice just an extra constellation there besides liny's signature 5 star weapon we'll be getting a ton of new weapons five new forgeable weapons five new battle pass weapons but don't worry if you still want the old battle pass weapons they will still be available you can still select them but apparently as of this update if you have been playing since launch and bought every battle pass you could have every weapon R5 I haven't checked my battle pass weapons in a while but I should actually be one of those people two new artifact sets as well which is not surprising for an entire new area I would talk about these sets and who they might be good for but they don't even go into detail there which is halfway a relief because there's so much information to absorb here already but yeah two new artifact sets I love New Gear I love farming New Gear I hate raising it because it always rolls like trash but it's there and finally the thing I'm probably most excited about more than Fontaine more than the new characters system optimizations something I wanted for such a long time something that has made procrastinating chest farming very easy for me is getting I don't know if fixed is the right word but multi-layered map dude this is amazing all those underground areas where you don't really know where you're looking we we have a multi-layered map in game now sure the interactive map already had something like that already but without being able to see actually where you are in an underground section it was just so frustrating and annoying to know where you're going and this won't just be for Fontaine this will be for the entire world Olive tavat any underground section will have you can select the layer and it'll be automatic and it'll be cool man that's actually amazing I'm actually going to start chest farming again because I couldn't deal with it like sumeru it was so bad with sumuru because there were so many underground areas and caves and it's just like where actually am I um I'm so happy that they're doing this thank you thank you actually think I'm the happiest about pretty much at the end of the special program almost as a footnote dude okay there are some very cool other things here as well like all characters will have special introduction animations when you throw them into your team that's just a really nice thing and also the background will change depending on where you are like the desert area or a water area it just looks a lot more lively and interactive in a way it doesn't really change anything with the core gameplay or whatever but it's really cool they've also added a genius invocation observe option so you can watch your friends playing TCG against one another I guess that is something and they wrap up the special program talking about the orchestra the music for Fontaine genjin has always had amazing soundtracks I'll probably have it as background music for this video but yeah it's really nice the orchestra part was only like eight minutes but it was really enjoyable so many interesting instruments to see as well but yeah I guess I'll pretty much do it for the coverage here of a ginshin impact special program 4.0 massive massive update of course I am looking forward to the new characters in the new area and everything but that map layer system that literally changes the game for me and I think a lot of other players as well but yeah
