@rildanimacaroni@Samsara_Force I don't know if it is a good thing. I'm no fan of APHO, but it was a continuation of HI3 at least. If it's retconned, what's next for HI3?
Plus it has cratered what little interest I had in continuing HSR too so...
@Samsara_Force I honestly saw the writing on the wall when I saw how Planarcadia from 4.1 onwards made Welt seem wildly out of character.
On one hand, I don't particularly care for APHO so from a HI3 perspective I'm glad, on the other it kinda completely kills a lot of interest I have in HSR.
@Genius_society7@StarRailVerse1 HSR took the worst aspects of HI3 and the worst aspects of Genshin, without really taking either of the best aspects of both games. As someone who plays HSR and became extremely disillusioned with it this past year, HSR‘s current state is the biggest mistake Hoyo made.
@alloutevelynn The leakers clarified its algorithmic AI, not Gen AI for what it is worth. Algorithmic AI has been around since forever, the AI Director in 2008’s Left 4 Dead was algorithm based.
It’ll probably work like dating sims, it’ll remember past responses and tailor dialogue in response
@Koitar_212@BBMoonStar1@PunishedRai Mostly because she is the most underutilized Archon in the game and the recent Chinese-Japanese political tensions meant that she’s the only Archon who hasn’t made an appearance at all in the past year.
People are merely excited to see her again really.
@Anbymaxxer In 3.8, she also mentions “Terminus ascending to Godhood once more” and Firefly questions why she’d know that because not even Emanators should know it.
So yeah, Acheron does seem to be aware on some level that the universe is in a loop and she may even exist outside it herself.
Like genuinely, this pisses me off. He dodged the damn question and is torching the loyal fanbases of HG2, HI3, HSR and even Genshin to an extent by depriving them of resources to instead fund games that simply aren’t guaranteed to do well and fewer people actually want.

Q&A Section for Dawei today
Q:
Will old games qualify got affected when hyv developing new games? Will game content reduced because of the development of new games?
A:
We will stick to our believes (on providing game contents) and we will never betray the way we taken. We will never give up (old games development), whether in terms of sentiment or reason.
At least 10 years, serving for two generations, and aiming for Hoyo-land (amusement park).
We are confident in our products.
As long as I am here, Hoyoverse will never lost its way!

@hxg_diluc Just straight up lying huh? The state of the entire Honkai IP from GGZ/HG2, HI3 and HSR has gone right downhill ever since focus was shifted onto newer game projects and HNA looks like ass. Even Genshin will fall victim to it once Part 1 ends, I guarantee it.
@alloutevelynn I think it might be a reset into a another possibility. From how the other TB worded things, it seems like things are going to end badly for them regardless if they use the Stellaron to save Himeko or not and Evanescia broke the 4th wall saying the Express “took the wrong route”
@Crow_Akai The game makes it clear he’s an American who isn’t native to Scotland in the first 10 minutes of the game. Not that facts matter to these people.
@FreyaAlberich@Path_Space It isn't. The radio in the Astral Express at the end of 3.7 talked about Benzaitengoku and then shortly after the political tensions happened, was changed to replace Benzaitengoku with Planarcadia.

The wiki has even captured the change, under 4.0.
@HomuLabs The entire Honkai IP right now is in complete shambles. HI3 is following the exact same trajectory that GGZ is currently undergoing, HSR is a trainwreck in so many ways at the moment and I’ve yet to see anyone say anything positive about HNA’s betas.
Shame on HoYo for all of it.
@nedgob Except she’d be a much more universal sustain than her final kit releasing next patch which is only good for Elation. That and the whole creating copies mechanic is more thematically fitting for her as an AI that seeks to create but can only copy. An idea they abandoned after 4.0
Holy hell HSR. 4.5 was already about two hours max for the main story and 4.6 is going to be even shorter? Did the game really have to throw out the entire second half of 4.x because of politics or is this a misguided overcorrection to Amphoreus?
It is interesting how there's people that try to make the GGZ Outer Gods look important when they don't have anything going on and they have to yet make any debut in a story
@redcode_team Rising is only on PC in the west and isn’t playable on modern consoles. The PC port is also long in the tooth and has issues so I can see the justification for it. MGS V on the other hand is playable on everything but Switch so that only justifies separate Switch ports.
