Your taste in genshin art is impeccable lol
Oh and, have any thoughts on Furina? (Is that how you spell it..? I don’t know.. )
omg thank you! it helps that there are so many awesome artists in the genshin community (i hope i can make art as nice as them someday ðŸ˜)
i love furina and i'm excited to learn more about her! for the most part the archons we've seen so far have generally had a vibe to them that they know what they're doing and are mostly comfortable with their position - venti is flighty (haha) and unserious, raiden is cold and detached, and nahida is not super confident in herself, but they and zhongli are all powerful, smart, and capable rulers for the most part.
furina is super interesting because while she puts on this grand facade of being a powerful god, it kind of seems like she really...isn't? she's a very "fake it til you make it" kind of person from what i've seen, and when faced with difficult situations where people turn to her as an archon for answers or help, she totally freezes and doesn't know what to do. (spoilers) we've seen her do it in most of the trials so far, especially when the oratrice gives childe a false(?) guilty judgement, and when the knave asks her what her plan to combat the prophecy is. it feels almost like she's a kid/teenager who fell into power unprepared for it, especially when her idle animations and skill have her playing with and naming little water creatures like they're stuffed animals/pets/imaginary friends
it makes me wonder what's really going on with her, it seems like she's hiding something for sure. how did she come into being the archon when she seems kind of bad at. being an archon? does she know something about the previous archon or the prophecy that we don't? or maybe she has some sort of secret side to her - the fact that she has parts of her design that oppose each other could suggest it. she has two different eyes (the only time that i'm aware a playable character does, other than eyepatches) as well as two separate "modes" of gameplay that can be switched between, and two separate outfits/appearances depending on what mode you're in.
aside from that, i really enjoy how petty and dramatic she is while secretly being insecure, it makes for a ton of really funny character moments and i like her a lot! i think i'll try to pull for her, her gameplay seems super unique as a playable character. i can't wait for the next update, i hope that with it we get more inside info on who she actually is!
