  • Genshin Impact 5.1: In the virtual world, we dance with the characters

     

    When we immerse ourselves from the real world to the brilliant Teyvat continent of Genshin Impact, it seems that we have also entered a dream with countless possibilities. Every time the version is updated, the heartbeats of the players are synchronized with the rhythm of the game. This time, the arrival of version 5.1 brings a little warmth, a little expectation, and those familiar yet unfamiliar characters into our lives.

    Sinoning is the rising star in this version. Her arrival is like a breeze, with the solidity of the rock system and the sharpness of the one-handed sword. Her appearance is not only to fill a small corner in the game world, but also more like the long-hidden expectation in our hearts is gently ignited. In the game’s card pool, Sinoning and Chizhi entered the first half, while the second half was played by Nashida and Walnut. They were once our dream partners. The reunion at this moment is like that distant summer appearing again in front of us.

    Sometimes, the process of drawing cards is like a wait in life. We always pray for the “ideal” character to fly into our sight like a lucky star with light in the moment of holding our breath. The appearance of Sinoning is not only to strengthen the output of the rock element, but more for her softness and tenacity in battle. Although this rock-type one-handed sword character is new, she has been deeply rooted in our hearts and has become a gentle light. She can help teammates gain and weaken the enemy’s resistance. Every time she releases a skill, it seems to tell us: the most beautiful things in the world are often invisible, but through those subtle changes, they bring shock and touch.

    Sinoning’s skill setting is like her personality, gentle but strong. She has the ability of “source sound sampling”, which can adjust the effect according to the elements of teammates, just like a musician, controlling different notes in her hands, playing the melody belonging to everyone. Her “leopard hunting rhythm” state is the moment when she releases her inner strength, just like a kitten suddenly becomes strong and powerful, bringing a strong impact to the enemy. Her constellation is like a trace of time. As time goes by, her abilities gradually show her innate talent, and this talent, just like our growth in life, gradually accumulates and eventually becomes an irreplaceable part.

    At the same time, the re-engraving of Chizhi, Nashida and Walnut seems to be a reunion with our hearts. Chizhi is the familiar old friend who makes people feel warm with a slight smile; Nashida is the wise existence, with her gentle grass element, bringing us new possibilities at every moment; Walnut is like the tireless little flame, always burning the passion in our hearts. Their re-engraving is not just an update of the game mechanism, but more like the familiar taste brought by the flow of time, which is the direction we accidentally find when we are confused.

    In this game world, the characters have become a part of us. We are not simply pursuing virtual characters, but experiencing the ups and downs of life with these characters. Every card draw, every battle, and every interaction with these characters is a microcosm of our lives. The appearance of Sinoning seems to tell us that even the hardest rock has a soft side; even the coldest battle has a warm power. The reproduced characters are like those who have appeared in our lives, gently holding our hands and leading us through the confusion and darkness.

    Games are just games after all, but in them, we can find much more than what we see on the surface. It is a profound dialogue between people and between people and virtuality, and a journey about growth and companionship. And all this happened quietly under our tacit cooperation with these characters and this continent. Every update seems to be another annotation of time, and those dreams that have been missed appear before our eyes again.

    Games and reality seem to be always far apart, but at this moment, the virtual world is no longer so far away. It has become the sustenance of our emotions and the habitat of our hearts.

  • The Stories of Fontaine: A Guide to Daily Commissions and Reputation Systems in Genshin Impact 4.0

    There are seven countries on the magical land of Teyvat, each with its own style. And now, the protagonist of the topic has come to Fontaine. This is not Paris, but it has the romance of Paris; it is not Venice, but it is full of water.

    As a qualified traveler, when you step into Fontaine, in addition to enjoying the scenery, listening to music, and chatting with NPCs about life, you have to do some serious work. For example: daily commissions and reputation systems.

    Speaking of this, we have to start from the beginning.

    —

    ### 1. Everything starts with the main line

    “Want to take daily commissions? Sure, finish the main line first.”

    This sentence is like the unspoken rules in the ancient officialdom: Do you want to be promoted? Okay, then you have to be recommended by someone first, and you have to do an errand. The official of Fontaine is no exception. To unlock daily commissions, you must first complete **two acts of the main storyline**:

    * **The prologue of White Dew and Black Tide**
    * **The light rain that seems to fall for no reason**

    To put it simply, it means that the storyline is complete, otherwise there is nothing to talk about.

    Do you think this is over? It’s still early. The main storyline is just an “application for joining the party”. If you really want to “assign a job to the organization”, you have to report to **Catherine** of the Adventurer Association to trigger the world mission – **”Adventure is to go to the distance”**.

    After completing it, the familiar little red dots will slowly appear in your commission menu.

    ### 2. Daily commissions are not just running errands

    Four tasks a day, one batch a day, this is the cleverness of the system design – let you come back every day to “punch in”.

    But the commissions of Fontaine are different from those of other places. In Liyue, you may help someone catch a hillman; in Inazuma, you may deliver a lunch box; and in Fontaine? You may have to help a little robot find its mother.

    Although the commission is small, there are many varieties. From underwater exploration equipment to investigating technological out-of-control, and even occasionally chatting about life with a robot fish that sounds like Shakespeare. Don’t think this is just a task, it is a cultural output, a collision of technology and humanity, and a microcosm of the rule of law society in Fontaine.

    And every time you complete a commission, you can not only get raw stones, Mora, and experience, but also promote the accumulation of reputation. To put it bluntly, the more you do, the more people in the city will recognize you as a person.

    ### 3. Reputation system, from a worker to an acquaintance

    “Who are you?”-When you first came to Fontaine, you may be just an unknown person.

    But as long as you complete enough tasks and your reputation rises, the treatment will be different. The regional reputation system is designed like this:

    * Accumulated reputation can unlock **regional props** (such as Fontaine’s special equipment);

    * After increasing the level, you can even get special drawings and commemorative items;

    * Moreover, for some side quests, you have to have enough reputation before the NPC will pay attention to you.

    It’s like when you first join the company, you can only do odd jobs at first; but after working for a long time, the boss likes you and is willing to give you the “core project”.

    ### 4. Process arrangement (no nonsense, but clear)

    1. Complete the two acts of the main storyline of Fontaine.
    2. Go to the Adventurer’s Association to find Catherine and accept the task “Adventure is to go far away”.
    3. After completion, the daily commission of Fontaine will be automatically unlocked.
    4. Open the Adventurer’s Handbook → Commission → Select “Fontaine” in the region to start the daily task.
    5. Complete the task to accumulate reputation and unlock the reward.

    This process is not difficult, but it is not too simple. The key is not to run the process, but to understand the logic behind it: the designer hopes that you will develop a rhythm of “participation” in the game – neither let you be idle nor tired.

    —

    ### 5. Summary in one sentence

    **The essence of the daily commission and reputation system of Fontaine is “one step at a time, and the work will not be in vain”. **

    You do a little bit every day, which may seem insignificant, but little by little, you will eventually find that you have become the most popular traveler in this city without realizing it.

    Does it sound like what we often say when reading history?

    “The person who really changes history is often not the most dazzling person, but the person who works silently every day.”

    The same is true in Genshin Impact.
