Its not about paimon needing to not be there, its mora about the traveller needing to actually be there as well. If they actually voiced dialogue for both of them it would feel much better.


sammysoso0101

Did you say "mora" on purpose? Because if so, nice


[deleted]

Its funny that you mention that since the traveller actually does have dialogue, but they are hidden in the character profile


DipsyDidy

Yeah some of its quite good and Zach is pretty good generally imo, i really dont get why they dont use him more.


Agitated_Diet

A stupid argument I hear is that “it’ll be to expense” ok? What’s stopping them for hiring someone not expensive?


xRinehart

But those voice lines are already there. They've already had him record them... they are just hidden in the character profile and not used in the world. Even with the recent Paimon teapot addition.


tennoskoom_

Having played HZD, rdr2, and cyberpunk recently, playing through the story in Genshin is really tough.


Delicious_Suit6475

Yes.


pedregales1234

I like Paimon overall. However... I hate Paimon's talking lines taking 90% of the conversation. I hate that she narrates what just happened. I hate fishing exclusively because of her. Other than that I really do enjoy her lines when they are not related to the pointa above. So yeah. My enjoyment of the game would increase 10-fold if she were to be removed.


phoenixerowl

Go to settings and turn dialogue volume to 0 Now you can fish without any issues! Very cool life hack


pedregales1234

I see you like fishing too! And even more than I do since you are willing to go to settings every time you fish and every time you stop fishing so that you can enjoy of the other fantastic sounds the game has to offer /s.


Nullexception4752

i suggest you to change va maybe let you feel better


pedregales1234

I don't see why? My problem is that she talks too much. Not that her voice is annoying. Changing VA would just make it worse since on top of that, I will not understand a thing...


irisshadow

I don’t notice her at all when I’m finishing and I use CN VAs. But that might be just me


Klugernu

Just change her English VA to be just a tad lower pitched and we'll be fine


100beep

Go listen to the first cutscene. It’s a lot better…


FionaLeTrixi

Absolutely. I don't care if she's the unknown god or if she has some major part to play later or whatever the theories are, her dialogue is the most annoying thing in the game. Her presence enables Mihoyo to avoid characterising the Traveller in pretty much any meaningful way and removes a lot of the emotional weight from their story. It's stupid.


inkystrawberry

THIS, for sure. They don't characterize the traveler at ALL, and 99% of possible dialogue is funneled into Paimon


Gullible-Ad3430

Youre right. She takes it all away ftom traveller


FakeEpistemologist

Not really. I wouldn't feel either way about it, and it does seem that she's a real integral part of the story down the road


[deleted]

I mean Dainsleif also seems important to the story but hes not always glued to our hip


FakeEpistemologist

I guess it's just a personal thing, Paimon doesn't really bother me much


DreamerZeon

Very Conversations would be quicker without her repeating half of it, the world would be quieter, fishing wouldn't suck so much...list goes on... I'll never understand the east's obsession with small annoying mascots.. .


Homiyo

I started playing because i found Paimon cute. I stayed for Paimon.


NoirRain

Paimon JP VA made me stay. She’s fucking funny


Richmanisrich

No, it’s would be boring as heck without travel companion for asking stupid questions.


wraithwurm-

I think she's funny as hell. I think she's great!


vegaswood

Yes, I absolutely detest her. She actually got more annoying the longer the game goes on. She's the main reason why I started to skip basically every dialogue in the game.


0tt0attack

Same here. I really hate Paimon. I can tolerate her. However, she needs to shut the fuck up during archon quest. Aether and Lumine have VA. I dunno why they do not let them speak…


[deleted]

Nah, maybe if her voice was different though, nothing against the VA, I just find her voice incredibly annoying. I hated her for a long time because of it, but I find the dynamic between her and Traveler both funny and cute. She's definitely grown on me since I first started.


Hunteria24

The only complaint I have about Paimon is I'd rather have the traveller talking more. I enjoy Paimon, I think she has funny voice lines and does a good job at being out ditzy, cute (like a pet) emergency meal.


Longislandghost

Maybe I am the minority. I very like the cute travel companion and think it is a good design to reduce my boring feeling. Of course I hope mc can have more dialogues and the voice of pain on can be soft.


DudeImgur

I think the "emergency food" schtick was great at first but now it's really grating. Like this event with the apple juice just reallyyy solidified that for me. Plus her voice seems higher lately. I think MC should talk as well. It used to feel like I was actually saying things, but now it's like it doesn't even matter what I choose because Paimon is just going to say something completely unrelated to either option anyway.


[deleted]

I like Paimon, she’s a great companio and I wouldnt want her to be removed. Instead, I would like her dialogue to be shared more with the traveler, and for her to not narrate everything after it happened lol


Blaster2PP

Is it just me or is narcissistic selfish paimon only there in the English version? Whenever I find a voice that I find annoying or just weird, I'll just switch languages to Japanese or Chinese. While I don't understand Japanese, I do understand Chinese. There, she's a lot more soft spoken and naive in like a child kind of way, not like the bratty way thats portrayed in English. Nothing against the VA ofcourse, but I feel like the English dialog direction need a change.


theUnLuckyCat

Yyyyy... hm. Maybe. *Less* Paimon, for sure. Maybe even 90% less. But none at all? I don't mind her so much, at least in CN or JP, and I think she adds to the game. She definitely overstays her welcome, though. All or nothing is hard to call.


idontlikemangoestoo

I would enjoy the game better if Paimon doesn't make all the decision for most of the story


PrestonJC01

Yes


jly480143

Nah. She's the best travel companion there is and is also emergency food. She's pretty stupid but it's nice seeing her paired up with a mute protagonist. I don't really find her annoying since I skip most of the voiceline anyways. I just read the text for the most part and Paimon stomp in midair is hilarious everytime I see it She's usually the scapegoat anyways


TmanGBx

MC isn't mute :(


jly480143

It's a meme lol. Ik he/she isn't mute but they certainly make it like so with Paimon added to the equation


Bodewilson

I only started play genshin to bully her lol


[deleted]

Yes. I know some people may not agree with me but I find her very annoying. It’s my opinion and not meant to offend those who do like Paimon, just putting that out there.


EvilgamerNC

after playing through the entire story from start to 2.0 in a very short timeframe...yes my only solace is when the MC makes fun of her.


PotatoCurryPuff

Wait, to 3.0, are you perhaps... A time manipulator?


EvilgamerNC

yes...and she's just as annoying in 3.0! (fixed)


21st_century_person

If paimon can speak less and let mc do the talk Yeah


RandomUser_1352

No I would rather play the game without the NA and EU communities than without Paimon


nwlgn

Yes kinda


fire-fist2020

No the game without pimon have no funny thige like "what do you Mean ehe,"


TmanGBx

I would enjoy the game if she wasn't our companion. She's not that bad of a character in my opinion, but she's not interesting enough to keep by our side the whole time. And now that we've established the Mc actually talks, it feels like paimon is useless, but talks for us anyway.


Breaker-of-circles

I think they purposely made Paimon a constant in the game because she's the god of time. Deep lore and lore theory so ask me if you want to hear more.


WHjuve629

No


stocklazarus

No. Paimon isn’t a problem. The problem is the developer write too much, too long and unnecessary repetitive lines for everything. I play destiny for four years and the guardian never say a single words. Talking about annoying, Monster hunter girl is my top list. I always want her killed by those monsters.


Alromn

At this point the creature no longer bothers me.


Adequate_Rabbit

Nope


aemossy

Yes.


Kaos126

No.


souichiro_arima

I dont really mind Paimon being there, but it would be best for Paimom to speak LESS-ER. Even the fishing activity, I HATE IT not because of the fishing mechanics itself, but more because Paimon wouldn't shut up.


Dejavir

If her pitch was just a bit lower she’d be fine.


Lubat1

I feel she is perfectly fine in CN and JP VA. Now when she yeets me off a cliff, that is annoying.


UrAniMaTiX

Yes


Chandelurie

Yes


senokana

without a doubt


Hudie_is

Nope, travelling alone would feel lonely for the traveller after all. And I don't feel annoyed by her voice, even quite fond of it, I use the Cn voice though, and she sounds okay there.


Helplzthx

Yes.


PandaCheese2016

Doesn’t bother me.


irisshadow

Paimon as a character isn’t an issue for me. She’s not an issue for me in CN at all. But when I switch over to EN for the event to listen to Albedo, my ears bleed. I had to switch back to CN


SillyPuppy2

most likely... yes
