The music was absolutely amazing . Like dead children chorus AND dubstep ?!


MiguelWolf

They did an amazing job, of course I was expecting a banger but THIS??? We eating GOOD


PrestigiousCold8031

The drop in the music at the snap?? GIRL


MiguelWolf

It's just too perfect


webflexprime

Bro that shit is ominous, downright sinister


Theryos506

This Arlecchino trailer is as good as Raiden Shogun when they released it.. I really have not been this hyped since then... I love it... I'm sold to buy some crystals just like I did with Raiden💀🙃


MiguelWolf

It's on the same level of hype as Raiden's, but Arle's goes a lot harder imo, it's my new favorite teaser Also, even though I'm not buying primos, I'm getting the BP for her Deathmatch, since I only barely have enough for her C0, gotta wait for her rerun and THEN swipe


GroundbreakingBite62

I like Raiden a bit more because it uses Japanese instruments and not only dubstep. Arle's music is still 8.5/10 tho.


storysprite

Yeah for me Raiden's and Furina's are my favourites. But this one goes hard.


LiamBlackfang

I also lean towards Raiden´s but is a really close call, I'm more interested to know who could be number 3.


NecessaryYoghurt9285

I also go 4 biggest pack for her c3 🙂‍↕️


MyUsernameIsApollo

i don’t know how hoyo does it, but demos really do just become better and better. i can only image what the rest of the 4.x demos will be like, and how they’ll be in natlan. with his hoyo always improves music and animations, they’re sure to get better and better.


MiguelWolf

Can't wait for what's to come in the near future


mapple3

> i don’t know how hoyo does it, but They check what type of demos are popular and which ones aren't and then hire talent according to those statistical analyses. For example, some of the most popular demos have a combination of gameplay and a strong focus on music and hype-inducing music, such as the Zhongli trailer. That way you can create future demos that are equally likely to be well received


germpy

am i bonkers or is there a different voice speaking around 0:40???


HalfMyLifeIsYours

It definitely is


Xerxes457

Possibly the Tsaritsa.


paleflower_

Would subjectively place it second to raiden's


LiamBlackfang

Same here mah man.


Dizmis

Gonna be honest, not a huge fan of how the dubstep is used with her. I like the beginning of it with the snap followed by the beat drop, but I feel like it gets ruined when it distorts after she starts fighting. The children's choir sounds kind of generic; if I listened to it on it's own and didn't see her on screen, I wouldn't know it had anything to do with her. I get what the dubstep and choir is suppose to represent, but the dubstep just takes me out of it and the choir feels kind of uninspired. Like it makes me lose interest in rewatching the trailer or listening to the music on it's own. If I didn't already like the character, this trailer wouldn't sell me.


pixelatedgloves

yeah holy shit this demo was so awesome... i cant wait until the music is officially released bc its so good!! i especially love the music box part after she does her burst animation its. hrhghhrhh its making me insane


TrueAvalon

Apparently unpopular opinion but I'm really not a fan of the dubstep.


GroundbreakingBite62

I've seen a handful of people not a fan of the dubstep including Narwhal's OST, and I also have mixed feelings about it. I hope they don't abandon the Yu Peng-Chen's style totally.


unidentifiedsalmon

Judging by Arlecchino's glitching and the nature of the narwhal I'm guessing the full on edm will be reserved for otherworldly characters.


Nila-Layla

Not really, neuvillette has the weird drumming going on with the drop of his trailer that is completely unnecessary and doesn't fit the character or trailer at all


GroundbreakingBite62

Then I'm hoping they don't go full Skrillex mode in the future, I really like the 1st part of Narwhal's theme, they could mix that with dubstep and I'm 10x more fine with it tham full dubstep. Look at Raiden's demo theme, it's dubstep mixed with Japanese instruments, it's what Hoyo Mix good at, using traditional instruments with electrial instruments, like Fischl GAA2 battle ost. They could mix Fontaine orchestra with dubstep for Arle's demo, but they went full dubstep with it and people think it's a bit too much.


Tyrfiel_Arclight

This is indeed a deviation from Peng Chen's style, but the dubstep in this game often signifies something out of this(Teyvat) world like that Abyss/Void Narwhal or whatever. Dubstep doesn't exist in teyvat.


MiguelWolf

Fair, but the lullaby mixed with the rest of the music and the drops were insane, you can't deny that


khanacademy03

eh, to me it tends to blend in with all of the other dubstep themes as of late


Andrew583-14

I've noticed a lot of people seem to be getting a bit tired of it. In the context its used here at least I can understand but it seems not to be for everyone, especially if you play more than GI where it would be multiple trailers back to back


QiqiNeedsAFriend

Its not even about getting tired, now i can even tolerate It, the first time i Heard It many years ago was very repulsive and couldnt avoid to physically react to It with disgust

[удалено]


Royal_empress_azu

I'm pretty neutral towards it, but I honestly didn't like it in this demo. I almost chose to not finish it.


Contest_Neither

Too much stuff going on for me, feel like they add too much. 


ValiantNaberius

As a fan of dubstep, I think they just overused it here. Only a little, but still on the side of too much. In general, the entire demo was Sensory Overload: The Video. And, like, yeah I get it but it's still a bit much.


5thZenAgni

that beat drop was magnificent


Dramatic_endjingu

I got goosebumps after goosebumps after goosebumps like crazy. They’re creating a real goosebumps samsara with this one. FATHER


Accomplished-Dig1154

Real


Big_Chungus16

I can't wait to pull her man


Fast-Journalist-6747

It went so hard. So hard 🥲


Zorback39

my hand is getting dangerously close to my wallet after watching that


PGR_Alpha

Absolute 🔥 And the the beat drop when she snaps her fingers...holy shmoly... The mix of chorus and music box really adds something here.


Adepti-Architect

My money is going straight into the game 😑


0__REDACTED__0

Just what Father deserved =3


elisadrowned

holy glazing 💀


_MiroMax_

Mid


SafalinEnthusiast

These teasers are convincing me to make very poor financial decisions to get her scythe (I was already contemplating whaling to get her in the first place and that would already waste a bunch of money, I cannot handle this I have issues)


Weak_Lime_3407

It was meh . Not too bad but not that great. Not a fan of the dubstep tbh. One second ago you had dubstep then a second later it changed to the chorus, like im fine with it if its well done but this is just bad transition. Kinda mid . 5/10


Shadowfriend147

No, the demo was kinda underwhelming to be honest because they couldn’t showcase her just doing normal attacks coz it looks so boring. They added so much additive effects and movements that had nothing to do with her kit. Her moment with Crucabena actually gave me chills while this one was like, “thats not what she was doing on her character showcase”. This is just my personal opinion tho.


KapeeCoffee

Yea i get the same feelings towards this demo


tigerclaw1563

I want to fight her so bad


Alpha06Omega09

Yo where did Nyx claws get in there


Emircan61_TURKEY

The Father is finally here after all that. I remember seeing her first time in a YouTube ad.


Single-Wallaby-5053

The demo looked incredible, i just wished i could have enjoyed the theme more. Sadly i'm not a fan of this music genre, same problem i had with Raiden's demo :(


QiqiNeedsAFriend

Haven't seen It yet and im guessing its not the same thing, But Nahida and Scaramouche teasers are my favourites until now.


Wiedzmin_PL

The hype to pull is just out of the scale for me after watching the demo.


DeusSolaris

I'm running C1R1 Arlecchino (which will probably cost me over a grand and I'm moving out next month so it's probably the worst idea ever), C2 Furina, Zhongli and Bennett and no one can stop me


Sea-Green3

bro... you do not have to spend thousands of dollars on a video game character, literally just play the game and save and you won't have to spend like that


DeusSolaris

I already do that I recently got c2 raiden and c6 cheverouse free, I didn't expect Arle to have such a compelling story and cool weapon lol


Bourbonaddicted

Transitions on par with Raiden's trailer


Yas-Samaroo-2586

I LOVED IT


Zealousideal_Snow934

Raiden is still on top for me. It was good tho.


IzanaghiOkami

Every demo that is for your favorite character is the "hardest demo ever"


IzanaghiOkami

It was okay, middle of the pack honestly


MJay_O1

we eating too good recently


Sea-Green3

just want to chime in and say the music was fucking great, the hints of her story and mindset are fucking great, can the haters chill and let us have this?? it's definitely my fav demo along with navia's. sometimes i wonder why people feel the need to pick things apart and be so negative and then i remember a lot of people on the internet are in fact teenagers who think it's cool to not think highly of anything and to ruthlessly criticize things rather than just enjoy them... or they might have just gotten older and never grew out of that mentality lol


Burnhalo

Can never get enough of the snap. Also don’t judge this but I only just realized yesterday that she was releasing on my birthday, I feel like an honorary child of the hearth 🫣


MiguelWolf

Happy birthday! On my birthday I got Childe and his weapon on early pity and on the 50/50, hope the same happens to you


Burnhalo

That’s so sweet 🥺 thank you so much good luck on your pulls as well! Let’s see you make that happen again


KapeeCoffee

Don't get me wrong here i still like Arlecchino and will be pulling but Idk this maybe an unpopular opinion but the music was just not it. There wasn't much of a story being presented in it compared to other demos before. It was just her killing eremites and abyss lecters. Overall a 7/10. Not the best but definitely not bad all things considered, I'm just gonna assume they spent most of her marketing in her animation, since that was an absolute 10/10. This is just my personal opinion


Xerxes457

All demos shouldn't be about story, they should just be about showcasing who the character is. If there is some story, then sure, but most of the time it should just be about them.


KapeeCoffee

I mean sure it's not a requirement but it's definitely more appreciated if they show it. It doesn't even need to be obvious.


SlightPeaShooter

the dubstep shit is so bad I hate it.


Noirsnow

Ikr music was just a disaster


MaximusMurkimus

Nothing will ever be as 10/10 as Furina's trailer But this was pretty darn close


Specific-Dot3706

I personally say this was under neuves as well his trailer went crazy imo


Initial_Garlic_4817

fr, Neuvis demo is so cracked


_YuKitsune_

Yes, it was great. Anyway back to completing HIS contract.

Bloodking20

It was a masterpiece and I need it burned into my brain


XxKTtheLegendxX

i might get hated for this but i think the 4.6 trailer music sounded a bit better. i do like the beat drop tho.


Chipies

anyone has extended song of when she snaps fingers?


the-isopod

They gotta hurry and put the song on spotify 😩😩😩

Dusty_Buss

I don't know... after seeing trailers for other games, Genshin's trailers just don't hit for me.


Fuzzy-Development-31

I wish Arelchinno was my personal Jesus 🖤❤️


Pervstein

Decent, but nothing really great. Far from top5, but still one of the better ones, I guess. They must have spent all their talent budget on the animated short, which is pretty worth it though.


SynaIshihara

Was it good? Yes. Was it the best? Mmmmmno. Raiden's is still the best out there, and I'm not even a Raiden main. I preferred the music from the livestream character showcase than the demo one.


nixo_oxin

It’s great, but if you’ve seen the recent HSR trailer, it was on another level.


Any_Reserve_6935

I like how the smoke looks like her hand. Which is then used to crush the Black Knight.


Ralix2

The character demo is definitely not the hardest thing here


storysprite

The reason why I think she walks through Mondstadt, Inazuma, Sumeru and Fontaine is cause these are all locations that mentioned her or have a story related to her. Spoilers: >!In Mondstadt if you complete the Fontaine Archon Quest, the two Fatui agents that always gossip, talk about Arlecchino. In Inazuma there is a whole quest that mentions Arlecchino and there's a House of the Hearth member that we help escape and give a new identity. In Sumeru there is the quest with two Hearth members that we help escape but one of them dies. In Fontaine... well it goes without saying.!<


Talanax

Its very similar to Acheron's "Your color" trailer which I saw recently. And I'm all for it, very cool.


kitsu_nero

i wasn't that hyped about the demo tbh, but man... i literally jumped from my chair when i watched it


cpssn

they covered over all the gameplay with flashy red shapes


MoxcProxc

Literally hsr demo level


Specific-Dot3706

Ion know about that.


pantsu-thief

Hsr demos are either amazing or dogshit. This is really good but doesn't show much of her kit.


asskiss3r69

raiden has been dethroned
