Okay after a week I have finally done the Stormchaser questline so I can actually rank up and use Raiden Shogun, lol. Unfortunately I did not have time to grind fish during the event so I still have to suffer through normal fishing for The Catch. Hit AR40 too (ended up not pausing at 35 after all, needed drops) so it is time to burn through some Fragile Resins to get her up to speed and rebuild my team. Currently I'm thinking Raiden/Xiangling/Qiqi/Sucrose. I could also use Yanfei or Sara as the ranged for resonance, but Sucrose is C3 now and yall say she's good so I think that's the best investment.

I love the stormy ruined island you go to for Stormchaser, btw. It's such a cool and spooky aesthetic. I made sure to take my time while doing the quest and got about 50% of the island explored. I've only really set foot on two of the Inazuma islands so far (I went over to a third for fishing so more like 2.5), but so far I'm digging it. Liyue's map impressed me a lot with its beautiful mountains and valleys, but Inazuma is so dense with hidden caves littered everywhere. As someone said, lots of Z-axis. Honestly hard for me to believe that these are in the same game as Mondstadt which is so plain and low-effort by comparison. I feel like the first region is a huge factor in why the game has a reputation as an inferior BotW clone when it becomes much different the further invested you get into it.

Also unfortunately, had no time to do the Inazuma story beyond getting to the city. I am interested in it; Liyue's story was decently interesting apart from fetch questing and I do want to know the lore on this character I'm grinding. There's just been so much STUFF to do though.

We've come a long way! And the journey is not even halfway done.

How exactly do you acquire the Catch? Ive been slowly trying to catch the fish needed for the fishing poles, but not in any rush.

C6 Sara and C3 Jean get. Felt dirty reaching for Sara cons, but its over.

There are enough fruit on the island to do it all in one farming run. If you really need, you can join mine, though.

Yeah, but I didn't feel like opening up a guide. I winged it and thought I hit every island, but guess not. Not worried about it, she'll get there eventually.

Is anyone else feeling overwhelmed with how much there is to do in the game right now? It would have been different back during release when I had no problem playing the game for long hours daily until I used up all the content and had to rely on only resin and daily commissions, but I feel like my foot is on the back burner right now. I never did finish all the quests and exploration in 2.0 before we have a new patch here -- which was partially on purpose, granted. I really can't choose to do that in 2.1, though, given that there are bosses with character materials or weekly talent items that I can't just let slip through the cracks.

Plus the number of world events have me constantly trying to track everything that's been happening during these opening seven weeks while simultaneously poking around the world before everyone spoils all the quests for me and doing all my regular daily stuff that existed beforehand. Not to mention new characters and new artifacts means I want to put more time into a focus on farming, but I've barely touched my stockpile of fragile resins because I just haven't been motivated to continue for that long.

It's not that long hours of Genshin is bad. Many games demand more of your time. But we're suffering whiplash for the second time. And I'm not sure if going from too little to too much to do is better or worse than the other way around. It was a brutal transition the first time. It's rough this time around, too, and the pendulum will likely swing back the other way before long. And this is coming at a time when my other major game is asking for more time and I'm also trying to remember what it was like to play other games. To say nothing of RL demands.

Ive been really busy lately. I plan on getting in a good long session in tmrw. But I dont feel like I need to rush it. Tales of Arise is coming out soon so that will be taking up some of my gaming time moving forward.

The Korean War stuff definitely draws in those ties to the Forrest Gump resemblance that some of the others have mentioned, though Forrest Gump was definitely handled much better (with every Asian character basically being a joke and ultimately nothing being gained or lost because of the war).

For me, it was more of the coming-of-age narration style that resembled Forrest Gump. Gump was a more grounded movie, for sure. Other movies like this are Benjamin Button, Life of Pi, and I guess The Notebook to some degree. They all have that same feel.
