I've been thinking about getting into HSR for a while now, but the gameplay doesn't appeal to me for a couple of reasons and I can't really play the game anyway... so I figured I could just read the story! Or, well, watch it. Yesterday I finally had some free time and dived right into it. So far I'm mostly extremely confused and I have no idea what's going on at all, but I'm having fun and I'm really excited to see what happens next! There's a few characters I already like even if I don't know much about them (Ratio, Robin, Sunday... and some others, but those three really speak to me lol), and so far I really like the cast too. Also Kafka is so pretty.
Some other stuff also caught my eyes, like the whole Aeons thing and the... sudden primum mobile mention? What was that about lol. I get it but it's also so surprising to see stuff I've studied in the games I play (or, well, read? my point stands either way). But then again that's also part of why I'm so interested in Ratio. He's a nerd down to the bathtub detail and I am also a nerd. I think it's funny how his name is literally just "Doctor Truth Reason", too.
Aside from that I've actually been playing a lot of Genshin! Well, I've played a lot these last few days at least. I've been mostly focusing on exploring when playing on my own and getting a lot of wishes, while also farming for my characters in co-op with my friend. I've been having terrible artifact luck but today I got two cool pieces so that's something at least!
I've also been thinking a lot about Ei in general lately. I mentioned this in my most recent post but I have so much to say about her, she's one of my favourite characters and I wish she was more talked about. Maybe people did talk about her when she came out, but I wasn't there to see it and I really want to put my own analysis of her out there too. Specifically as someone who's a Wanderer main I see a lot of Ei hate which... I get where it comes from, but I really cannot agree. Deep down they have a lot of similarities that I want to explore, but that'll have to wait a little.
Gaming aside, I haven't done much today. I studied for my final tomorrow and that's about it. I wanted to draw or write too, but I've been stupidly art blocked, on top of the fact that I've barely had the time to do anything when I wasn't... Still, I want to see if I can finish something before the year ends. Hopefully next time I'll have better luck.
