It's intersting to see that these are two characters never part of any leak. They also look linda different and newer compared to other Genshin character designs. I could imagine them being more recently created designs.
They really do seem like they were created recently and definitely didn't have any time in the oven before they were just put into the game. Ugh. -_-
That was Jean. She prefers tights to pants and some air around her cleavage though, lol.
lol, yeah

Eula has a pretty sweet cape though. Might be some cool physics on that.

Also I think I am going to break my resolve on Ayaka. Especially now that 1.5 is seemingly going to be focused on housing and not a new area.

Please forgive me, queen.

All new characters should appeal to me and me alone

This is a pretty awesome design.

I'm conflicted on Yanfei... Her portrait, that is hair, expression, hat and that thing she has around her neck are all really cute to me. But her 3d model and rest of her design do absolutely nothing for me.

Are those her ears? o__O The long flesh-colored things sticking out of her hair.

Yeah I don't get it at all
I like characters who have already appeared in the game so we have a reason to give a crap
I was looking forward to Shenhe because I really like the Cloud Retainer
I want Baizhu because come on he's the only dendro character we've seen
Eula and Yanfei are nobodies to me

Yeah that's the other thing that's baffling. We have a ton of characters that are clearly known and a lot of those designs are well-liked. Why these horrific creations?

Filler? idk
Maybe dendro isn't ready. Also I feel like seeing as they took Shenhe's claymore and gave it to Eula, Ayaka is a swordie along with Qiqi, and Ganyu is a bow...
she only really has the choice of catalyst or spear. I feel like they'll make her yet another spear and don't want her to close to the 1.3 spear 5 stars or Rosaria
That Eula art really doesn't look like it was intended to hold a claymore, it's just floating there

I love both of the new characters. The others that were a part of that big pack were super boring. Gimme gimme these new ones.

I really love Yanfei from the neck up -- her expression, her hair, the hat. It's a shame the rest of her design isn't that good. Eula I'm not sure how I feel about. I like aspects of her design, but there are also some aspects I'm not into.
I would say 1.5 easy skip, but a text leak I saw earlier today that had everything else correct mentioned there would be a Zhongli rerun so MHY still not giving my wallet a break if that turns out true. >__<

It's kinda cool getting completely new character surprises, though. I hope we get some new, never before seen dudes coming out sometime, too. 👀

Out of 9 banners we had so far, 5 have been husbandos.
other 4 were waifus and one of em was bait copy pasted from standard banner.

Stop pretending we are hurting for husbandos, they are dominating the gacha right now.

Your numbers are weird... Are you suggesting the likes of little boy bard Venti is the male equivalent to Eula, Rosaria, Lisa, Ganyu, Keqing, Mona, Beidou, Ninggaung and other upcoming female characters designed with sex appeal at the fore?

Only the 4 of boyband fame are honest to god 'husbando' status.

Still no 5* cryo husbando in sight, hmm. Well I just got Kaeya to 80/90 anyway. I don't mind Eula but I'll probably go for Childe C1.

People complaining about the lack of "husbandos" in this game don't know how good Genshin has it. You'd be lucky to get one husbando a decade in other gacha games, if any at all.

I think Genshin has had a nice balance of males and females so far.

As someone who has to suffer through FGO and their swimsuits for males being ties and suits, I do agree that Genshin has been surprisingly nice.

Wait a sec. Captain of the knights' reconnaissance team? OMG, they really just transformed Varka into her?! O:
Unless i'm mistaken Varka is the Grand master and Knight of Boreas, and is off on an expedition somewhere, he never was the Captain of the reconnaissance team (afaik this is the first we are hearing of this team). We know that the Wolf's Gravestone belongs to Varka and Eula's aesthetic doesn't match it at all.

Varka will probably show up when we get to the region he went on an expedition to.

Okay i'm going to be playing Ganyu / Eula / Sucrose (because i'm skipping Venti for Eula) / Bennett.

I have C2 Ganyu, so we get:
-15% cryo res after a charged shot with Ganyu's C1
-20% Physical res + Cryo res down with Eula's E
-40% Cryo res with Sucrose + Viridescent set
+20% cryo damage bonus to the party when Ganyu's ult is up
Bennett

Shit's going to be broken.

Eula looks pretty good. Might just skip 1.4 banners even though I don't have venti

Can we just skip 1.4 and get straight to the good stuff?
No, I need the next 7 weeks to save up gems and resources after spending a little of the former and a lot of the latter on Hu Tao

Eula looks pretty good. Might just skip 1.4 banners even though I don't have venti
If you care at all about the power level of your teams then do not skip Venti

Legitimately the best character in the game

I'm guessing the house will be like Madame Ping's where you carry it around and it's bigger on the inside.

Oh wow the leak season has started.

Eula looks cool but why Cryo? Does that mean Ayaka is soon or not. What will I doooooo

So 1.5 is not Chasm but rather Chasm pre-patch with housing?

Yeah the balance is good for now but considering that most leaked characters (from the spreadsheet posted recently + those two + Ayaka + Raiden) are girls, I can see it shatter quickly. Although as a husbando collector, I'm not really bothered because I'm satisfied with who I have and what the game really needs now is not more characters but more engaging locations/quests that will involve the existing roster.

Posted this in the Discord, but it's insane to me that Mihoyo doesn't have an internal testing community.

It would cost peanuts and prevent all leaks.

Mihoyo are a small indie company, can't stretch to expanding their internal testing.

Player housing has never been something that interests me. Not big on decorating and they always end up feeling useless. The teapot creature is super cute tho. Hoping there's more to the patch :\
