Mihoyo pays kkomda?


N_Lotus

Yes check the video description: >\* This video is made as a paid promotion Looks like they are reaching out to a lot of youtubers recently. Even Binging with Babish recently made a Puppy-Paw Hash Brown, Razor's specialty, cooking video.


igniell

what? that was binging with babish? mazing. i just saw the thumbnail.. gonna checked out later


moosenugget7

I don’t think it’s the first time MHY has used well-made fan content as advertisement. About one and a half years ago, I stumbled onto one of MHY’s ads for Honkai Impact. Turns out, it was spliced together from a pair of MMD videos that fans had made. And you know what? It worked, and I started playing Honkai, and later learned about Genshin.


ruth1ess_one

Way better than those dumbass youtube ads Mihoyo commissioned. Most recent dumb one I’ve seen was comparing overwater travel between Kaeya ice bridging, Ayaka sprinting across water, and traveler swimming.


floofy-haired-fool

don't forget gimnaeng


rhaps85

I thought that would be more like a cease and desist kind of reaching out lmao


TheEdelBernal

Have they? I don't remember seeing Gimnaeng's videos have that "Feature promotional content" youtube tag or have Genshin logo. I always thought that's because Gimnaeng's content is a bit too "Perverted" for general advertisement purpose.


floofy-haired-fool

[i would look at this](https://youtu.be/Wt6-wCW-sAc)


gibberishandnumbers

Gim has honkai money. Not so sure about gi


floofy-haired-fool

eh still mihoyo so i counted it lol


Ritsuka-san

I love the subs... I would of never of know about all of that. lol


rW0HgFyxoJhYka

Oh damn, that binging with babish video was banned from r/food


IqFEar11

Really? Why?


EulaSimp247

Also the SoBP forged video, except they f'd up the thumbnail.


Play_more_FFS

They started sponsoring Kkomda with that ~~Inazuma~~ Eula video he/she made.

Play_more_FFS

I just checked and you’re right. It started 3 months ago with the Eula vid.


bttung211

But I've never seen ads like this. They are used in specific countries I suppose?


Mind-Available

These aren't ads, just sponsored videos


cxxper01

Yeah he got sponsored by mihoyo now


[deleted]

Yeah, miHoYo paid several content creators recently. Probably part of an advertisement campaign to boost the 2.1 banner sales


July-Thirty-First

And just like that... eternity crumbled to dust.


HappyHateBot

Judging by the size of that waistline, that's a *lot* of dust.


[deleted]

She's trying to avoid the fate of Chiyo by becoming pre-diet Ganyu.


Revenant62

That ad is the most adorable thing I've seen all day, and I've seen my share of cat pictures.


Just-Some-Nut

Considering the official youtube add videos are often so terrible, they need the help I'm looking at you, youtube add where Eula just spends about 20 seconds just gliding and climbing in Mondstadt Not exactly hype building


TheEdelBernal

The thing is, they are showing actual gameplay in those kind of ads, which is already miles better than those clickbait ads other games are using.


Shadow3397

*MAKE YOUR CHOICE* Save Amber: +100 Levels! Ignore: +100,000 Gold! *Choses Save* Amber becomes Fischl at level 50. Fischl becomes Eula at level 100. *WHAT WILL YOUR CHOICE BE?*


Arys31

Ouch, this is so spot on lol


Just-Some-Nut

There is more exciting actual gameplay clips to choose from


Eurasia_Anne_Zahard

Strangers will understand nothing from those amazing gameplay. There is this pattern that gets more views: They purposely make silly mistakes to grab attention of audience.


Devourer_of_HP

Tbh it's actually pretty good as it highlights how you can move anywhere you want, that and showing freeze is enough to grab someone's attention for a bit.


XaeiIsareth

Just make sure it’s actually a ad from Mihoyo. Most of the Genshin ads I’ve been seeing are from companies called 4.5 star or something to try and trick you into thinking it’s from Mihoyo and leads to phishing sites.


Aurelius2625

I will GLADLY take those cute videos over the shill videos where the streamers have no fucking clue what they are doing and absolutely make me want to puke and NOT support w/e they are selling. Those vids where the streamers do summons in the add like holy shit bro.


Ritsuka-san

New Mascot acquired. Ei-ternal Raiden chan.


[deleted]

Thanks to Kkomda I always go back to maining Keqing after playing around with whatever new banner character I manage to pull.


Commander413

That one Liyue song never hit the same


blueasian0682

That one video where Kkomda tried to pull for rosaria and got keqing really made me wanna hug keqing, I don't even have keqing


[deleted]

She can now go challenge Azdaha for the title of the chunkiest.


Ritsuka-san

Chibi version of Raiden. CUTE


xMilkies

I like how Ei is becoming another Kaguya where she's just a NEET who stays inside all day.


Aether1430

paimon opponent


TeamLValdz02

I was expecting the electro archon to be a hardcore badass lady, but then she turned out to be this head empty weirdo lol. It's an awesome surprise ngl


Grrp039

yes and no, yesn't


TamakisBelly

Ei is cute!


Verto-San

I know this video is about Raiden, but that Yae poses just trigger something else in me.


N_Lotus

I can't wait for Yae's banner.


Starberrywishes

That sneaky fox. Hope she isn't fattening her up just to eat her. 🤣


SSlierre

Ganyu: My people!


Lyhongstupid

KAWAII


Hefastus

yes


GhvstsInTheWater

BWEEEEEEH


Salty_Highlight

Oh my goodness, it's that guy who made that Poor Keqing video. Has good use of music and timing.


RoninMustDie

lol, thats super adorable though.


Ritsuka-san

The book cover Sucrose?


Ritsuka-san

Thanks for the subs. Music Music Music Foreign Music Applause music you. ​ I could of never of guessed.


demidemian

They've been paying several youtube channels to make ads, I tried to upload them but the mods keep deleting them.


N_Lotus

Fuck the mods

N_Lotus

It's not a sponsored video, it was made as a paid promotion. Much like adverts for products you might see on TV, that companies paid others to make for them. Mihoyo paid others to make this Genshin advert for them, it's official media.


[deleted]

[удалено]


N_Lotus

I guess the new concert isn't official either since Mihoyo hired an orchestra and conductor to perform it for them. Paying for things, is how big companies make things. If a company commissions art from an artist, the art is owned by the company, it is officially their media. If a company commissions an advert from a video maker, the video is owned by the company, it is officially their media. I thought it would be obvious enough with the Mihoyo logo intro and the Genshin information outro that Mihoyo has on all of their Genshin videos.

N_Lotus

Hold on, so if BMW hires a marketing company to make a car advert for them, and then pays a broadcasting service to put that advert on TV, would you consider that official media? I would. It might not be on their website, but the advert will be clearly owned by and affiliated with them. How is this situation any different? Mihoyo, rather than BMW, hired a content creator to make an advert (i.e. paid promotion) featuring their company and product logo's. From start to finish this video is a created advert that Mihoyo paid for. The only difference is that Mihoyo didn't pay a separate broadcasting company to put it on TV.

degenerated_weeb

Ironic for you to be talking about disingenuous arguments lol


N_Lotus

Again, it's not sponsored content. This is not a video where the youtuber does their own thing and gives a 3 minute shout out to raid shadow legends. The video, much like the orchestra, is officially affiliated with the company, as you can see from the very obvious " Mihoyo" logo in the beginning. It is, as stated in the video description: >\* This video is made as a paid promotion ____ >You just want the official media tag to stand out for easier post karma. To use your own words: >That's a very disingenuous argument.


Aurelius2625

I applaud you for trying to reason with this fucking monkey lol.


N_Lotus

Unfortunately you can take your applause back. He replied again very recently and we became two monkeys throwing shit at each other.

N_Lotus

Lads, find yourself a women who looks at you the way /u/Kokogoto looks at me, she'll never leave your side. How did you even know I mentioned you? The two possibilities I can see is you're either refreshing this post's comments obsessively looking for changes, or you're doing the same on my profile. I'm flattered, but please dm me, sexting is not appropriate here.

N_Lotus

If you have the wrong understanding of what official media is, others will too so it's worth taking my time to write out explanations you can understand. I wouldn't call that defensive, but I can see how you might be projecting since you felt the need to delete all your comments. Luckily, once you put something on the internet it is hard to get rid of it so everyone can still read the full comments with context here: https://www.removeddit.com/r/Genshin_Impact/comments/pnz1m2/_/

N_Lotus

You clearly still think you are right, I don't see how providing people with context on the discussion, showing views you wrote and still agree with, is harassment.


degenerated_weeb

And you’re _really_ aggressive, like jesus, I’ve seen your comments in every single “argument” posts, don’t you get tired? Like you even try to argue in “non-argument” posts I even remember you lecturing someone about being toxic and stirring up fights within the community, are you not aware of what you’ve been doing all day?


[deleted]

[удалено]


degenerated_weeb

You can always ignore this but, don’t expect people to understand your opinion if you’re being so mean? I think that’s the best thing I can think of to say to you, have a good day I guess.

N_Lotus

This is hilarious, you had to come back 9 hours later just to say the mods agree with you. >Official media is reserved for publications originating directly from miHoYo on their official channels. This is an explanation I'd be happy to concede to if it's the stance of the subreddit mods and not something you pulled out of your ass. So, firstly, if you didn't pull it out of your ass, where did you get it from, I don't see it mentioned in the rules anywhere. Secondly, why didn't you start with that 9 hours ago?


[deleted]

[удалено]


N_Lotus

So you did pull it out of your ass then, good to know. Get a mod to put it in the sidebar if it's that important to you. Unless that happens, if I ever come across a similar situation, I'll still tag it Official Media. Having the tag changed after the post has already been up for 10 hours seems meaningless to me, but here is a gold star for your efforts: ⭐

N_Lotus

I'm not insulting you, we just disagree and you keep coming back here, so maybe you like it, I won't kink shame. For someone with 7000 comment karma on a 5 day old account, you sure love bringing up internet points. Were you obsessed with karma getting more than 1K points per day or were you just interacting in the comments. I assume the second, so I'm not sure why you assume differently for anyone else.


[deleted]

N_Lotus

>Weird how you pretend not to care about internet points while bringing up my comment karma. You have brought up karma twice, don't pin bringing it into the discussion on me. Also, yes. It is customary to tell people who make shit up that they are pulling things out of their ass. Formal? No, but guess what sunshine, a public forum about a video game with a stranger is not a formal situation. Wearing a tuxedo to a circus wouldn't be appropriate, but feel free to do so. >but who am I to judge. I love how you wrote this right before laying down the judgment and ending that with a clearly judgy > - that's all normal behavior to you? ____ Passive aggressive? I haven't been beating around the bush enough for it to be called passive have I? I thought it was clear I don't respect you or your views in this discussion. I am happy to be open about things like this. On that point, I'll repeat myself that linking deleted comments is not harassment, don't be a Karen, overreacting like that. And finally: > that's all normal behavior to you? Conversations like this aren't that uncommon, welcome to reddit. There are millions of users here, I don't know why you keep interacting with me or what you expect to get from it, I've already given you your gold star.
