In general I just have to say their dedication to reproducing the artstyle of old cartoons in this series is quite impressive. The first set was more old-school Mickey Mouse, and this new set is a bit more Tom & Jerry/Road Runner & Wile E. Coyote. Even the music is an extremely well-done homage. Spoiler for 2.0 plot + this video = 2.x speculation:

I know Mihoyo prepared colossal budget for their recent games when it comes to PR, but clockie animation must have costed an arm and leg given the smooth animations but also the research that had to be done to emulate old stuff just like that. I doubt they could get it right on the get go, especially given how the humor is so different compared to nowadays slapstick stuff.
Back to the status of certain characters, I guess we can expect certain outcomes depending on what kind of assumption we are willing to go with. Spoiler for 2.0 + sidequests:

Another point that 's bothering me is regarding the moment we meet/help Firefly...
Spoiler for 2.0 story:
Seriously, ever since I saw the Penacony trailers I had a feeling the story would mess with us, but I didn't expect trust issues

Considering the nature of dreams and my personal experiences with them, I have to agree with the later portion of the above theories.
Spoiler for Dreams, Penacony and the Harmony:
...Been a while since I've written this much for a theory/speculation, but still doesn't compare to what you guys write in your reviews/opinions

@relentlessflame True, the hints are abundant and the theory is quite possible. Especially considering how Hoyoverse's members are hardcore otaku
Also yes, that quote from Firefly is rather intriguing.

Acheron's kit leaks are out.
Her kit looks broken, HOWEVER, she has a VERY limited pool of useable light cones because majority of Nihility characters are either DoT and debuff oriented, Acheron being the first real Nihility DPS. From what people can tell she only has 3 LC choices, either her sig LC, Welt's LC, or Good Night Sleep Well. The first 2 are 5 stars and GNSW is gacha. I can't afford the 5 stars and GNSW hasn't has a rerun rate up in forever. Damn. I may have to skip her until Nihility DPS LCs become a thing.

that would be three straight waifu banners if Acheron will arrive after Sparkle. Hoyo putting some pressure on f2p waifu collectors to open the wallet. lol
anyway... I'll think of something.. There's plenty leftover quests I haven't done yet.

For once my Welt S2 light cone will serve me well in my quest for acheron, all my concern is how much jade I will have left after Sparkle, I have relatively good saving for now but I doubt it can stand 2 50/50 losses/

won't have any jade after Sparkle, which is why I'm hoping it's Aventurine banner that comes after Sparkle banner, and not Acheron.. so I could have chance to restock on jades.
_________ oh. and on another thing. Took awhile, but now finished building Xueyi on all servers I play in. Take what I say with a grain of salt, as your experiences might be different. To all planning to build her... she is a very stat hungry character, and you should be prepared for frustrations ptsd (lol) even with multiple guides. play on three servers, so have three builds fully levelled + all traces and relics maxed. All builds have break rope + atk sphere 4x Shooting Meteor + Talia - this is the best among my Xueyi. The struggle was reaching enough SPD for Talia while still having enough ATK. 4x Brilliant Star + Rutilant - tried pairing BS with Talia first. But when BS was paired with Talia, I was struggling to find enough Break Effect, ATK, and SPD sub stats... eventually gave up on Talia, and paired BS with Rutilant. The damage is consistent, but this is the lowest damage among all my Xueyi. When time allows, will change it to A Shooting Meteor set. Only good thing this build did was my Qingque got upgraded, with all the Briilliant Star I farmed during the struggle. lol 4x Shooting Meteor + SSS - this is the easiest to build Xueyi. SSS provided ATK and the SPD requirement is not hard to reach. I recommend this for those wanting easy way of building her. Note, it's not as good as Talia, but the damage difference is negligible, and you won't be subjected to so much stress in farming. ---> Xueyi is difficult to build, but rewarding to build if you can get enough damage. She is not a replacement for Qingque.. there are still several places I want Qingque instead of her. However, there are now places where I want her instead of QQ. For example, I bring Xueyi in SU 6.. she quickly kills the annoying Bronya that the Cocolia boss summons in the second phase. Also, in MOC 8, Xueyi (with Ruan Mei buff) destroyed Yanqing boss. She is very good at breaking boss shields, ignoring element of the target is an advantage.
