Well. That at least gives me the hope that in the future, we could have a version of Genshin that is well translated. I've seen fandom make a huge difference with keeping translations honest or at least making sure everyone who's interested in the subject knows about it when the main translation is misleading or censored or whatever. And I appreciate your observation about reading item descriptions. I've looked at them some, but without a clear sense for, you know ... who the heck was supposedly telling me all these things? ... I wasn't assuming the information was especially close to the truth.

If you do write down your thoughts, maybe you should link in F!S. Or at least, I'd be interested.

AYRT - Same here. And there are plenty of theories on how Genshin may become just an offline game at some point in the distant future. Maybe we will get the whole condensed story in some type of media (at this point we can dream of an anime even!) in the future. That would be amazing ♥ But for the time being, yeah, fandom is super useful for that. Sadly I am not THAT much of a lore nerd so I can't pinpoint every inexact translation, but at this point we know some very important words and concepts, like Heavenly Principles, Primordial One and cataclysm have been butchered in translation, not to mention the "object that fell from the sky" / meteorite and so on. So it's really a mess so far.

The idea that item descriptions are the closest we have to the truths of Teyvat isn't something I made up, it was told by the developers at some point IIRC (gotta check my sources but pretty sure). As for the "who the heck", sometimes there is an answer (like the hypostasis descriptions are meant to be the Archons supposedly), often... not yet.

Aww, that's super nice, thank you for the interest. Sadly I am a bit behind in the story right now, kinda stuck in Sumeru AQ part 3 (thanks desert, lagging my computer was great!) but if I manage to catch up I will get to it and share here for sure.

AYRT *nods*

It sounds like something fandom at large might already know, but I'm glad you mentioned it because I didn't know that. The ... things where they talk to the audience about the game so far seemed like mostly time-suck to me, so I get the promo codes from places that just post the codes and get on with the game. And sometimes I miss things that way.

Gah, I was going a little cross-eyed trying to wrap loose ends up in the desert. Won't say more if you're still working on it, just wanted to commiserate.

AYRT - Yeah, I feel you. The dev talks aren't even a "version special program" thing, so it's even harder to find them + translations. As I started playing just before the 1st anniversary I had a lot to catch up on and by now I can't remember where I learned some things either. Whoops.

Gosh thanks a lot. Really I just wish I could turn on the "sandstorm" / dust effect 'cause that crap lags my computer a lot. See, I LOVE the desert, it's beautiful and fun and full of interesting stories. But I normally run Genshin very slowly on "very low" specs, so the desert is impossible for me :( sigh
