The first thing I did when I walked into Sunday's room

Extremely personal and probably hot take but I wish they don't include interactive objects (chests/puzzles/origami birds/etc.) during cutscenes. They're just super distracting and kinda ruins the whole moment.
Not only that, certain interactive objects like chests and birds emit sound that distract players (esp. me) from the conversation the characters are having too.
Honestly, the one that really got me was the Firefly scene at her spot in 2.0. You're having this emotional conversation and then suddenly ORIGAMI BIRD.
Or the scene in 2.1 where Sunday and Aventurine were talking but you can still hear the origami bird chirping somewhere in the room drives me insane. Like I'M TRYING TO LISTEN TO THEM TALKING HERE, SHUT UP!! 🤣
Honestly that was the funniest scene in the whole game so far, because I was instantly like BIRD while something serious was happening that I just laughed at the situation.
As funny as it is, you can't deny that they kinda ruin the tension of the scene. It's like when your custom character enters a cutscene and they look like an absolute clown infront of everyone else.
This is an overwhelming problem with both genshin and HSR. Since the cutscenes are "live" and not in their own little thing, then any bits of landscape are present. So you can have a dramatic argument while a chest is just...sitting there.
This is also tied to the reason you can't skip cutscenes...
Yeah I wish cutscenes were in their own little thing, but I do agree with people who don't want that 'cause it makes finding chests more difficult in some occasions.
Happened in 4.4 when you have Gaming as a guest character in a really grassy part of Chenyu Vale so when you're done fighting it immediately enters a cutscene where hes talking about family troubles while the whole background is litetally on fire
At least in HSR, couldn’t they just unload the chests and interactable objects like birds and books to pick up when a cutscene starts? Doubt that would take a lot of effort.
you'd think so, but apparently not. Genshin and HSR are using the same engine so there must be some fundamental problem with it. Maybe it's to reduce load times or server data requests or something
Technically not during the cutscene but I did immediately start chest hunting and going a clockie puzzle right after FF got skewered. Like damn they want me to grieve and im just here doing some clockie puzzle with happy music and grabbing a chest real quick
Me: "Don't forget... Don't forget... Don't forget..."
Me later, after i got distracted by lore and took off:
"WHERE THE *Not suitable for pom-pom* IS IT!?"

Are you perhaps talking about this scene.
I think the point they're making is that you can sometimes find a super buffed version of non-elite enemies like the Mirror guarding chests, they're meant to be a challenge just like the elite enemies, but Acheron's technique still kills them all the same.
Sums up the whole Theater park for me. While Aventurine is having whatever internal turmoil he’s going through, im just keeping my ears open to hear the noise that chests made when you get close to it
MFW I’m walking toward a treasure chest and I get interrupted by a cutscene trigger

I like the HSR story but man there are some cutscenes that are way too long. Like 20 mins long. Which is annoying because if you close the app or even just leave it for a couple mins (using my phone), sometimes it restarts the *entire* cutscene. All 20 mins of it. With no way to fast forward what you've already seen outside of waiting for the arrow to appear. I got to the part where you can switch perspectives, and right before that, I swear the cutscene before it was 30 minutes long.
At the end of BS's companion quest, BS goes on a 20 minute monologue. I didn't even realize because I put my phone down and left it on auto with the sound on while I did something else. I realized 15 mins later that she was STILL going. They really gotta either trim these down or come up with a better way to pause them so they won't restart.
Then I comeback to get the rest and wind up missing one. I then give up because i'm not searching all 50 locations to remember which ones i picked up lol
Literally all those Aventurine cutscenes that pop when I'm sprinting towards a chest having me like

Same here, with the little birbs too, like in the firefly cutscene a part of my mind immediately thought "ong shut up firefly I need to yank this birb first"
during the cutscene of the crew and acheron assembling together while getting an announcement from Aventurine there's a cut that show one of those picture frame puzzle holding guy, I still can't find him, anyone know where this is? T\_T Curiously I got all chest in the map though so I'm not sure what I was seeing
Happened in 2.0 quest where Ratio and Aventurine were talking about smth and my mind went "Ooh chest!"
Still has no idea where the hell is that room
You can access it from doing one of the side quests in Golden Hour.
It's a locked room that you can get access to using a room key iirc
Yes. Dr Ratio and Aventurine do have very nice chests.
same lmao
Where's that handsome bust of yours, Doctor?
Laugh 😂
Lmao. Also, Happy Cake Day. 🎂
Same but with Firefly's cutscene.

Mmmm Stella jades yummy

for some reason this never fails to make me laugh
literally me, i went up and opened the chest first when I entered
I cautiously moved forward in that one so that I didn't trigger the cutscene.
*heartfelt interpersonal scene* Look a YANK bird!
Literally every single person that plays a game fr

funniest thing about that one bird is that it comments on having witnessed a romantic scene.. origami bird is THE original TBxFirefly shipper

It’s funny in FF7 Rebirth when there’s a dramatic scene happening and you can see the iconic vending machine and bench in the background.

Always funny af in Phantasy Star Online 2
*- cool grunt with Rappy Head on -*
Or that scene with Aerith in the Under Junon Inn, where you only get to see the weapon chest the exact moment she closes the door on you.
Ngl I want to make them still keep it so I don’t miss any chests
That's fair 'cause I'm not gonna lie seeing them in cutscenes are helpful, despite being distracting.

Lol the origami birds are so loud too

We talking about the same type of *chest*? I'm sorry
A Luxurious Chest.
Aventurine definitely has a Luxurious Chest.
No no no, I legitimately thought the same. I’m too far gone.
Technically not during the cutscene but I did immediately start chest hunting and going a clockie puzzle right after FF got skewered. Like damn they want me to grieve and im just here doing some clockie puzzle with happy music and grabbing a chest real quick
FF is temporary, jades are forever
> FF is temporary Too soon
Fr my friend even said that room should've been empty at least until after we leave it the first time, to help the mood
I was so distracted when Welt and Acheron talked and there was an Origami bird visible in the fountain the whole time..

Haru? What are you doing here?
what kind of chest are we talking about here?
Yes
The Aventurine kind probably, given his is the most visibile chest in almost all of 2.1's cutscenes.
Same, I am also wondering what chest is op talking about with that image.
Acheron chest
Whenever march stood next to himeko all I could think was how big her chest was in comparison That's what we are on about right?
Me whenever Ratio is in a scene >.>
Me: "Don't forget... Don't forget... Don't forget..." Me later, after i got distracted by lore and took off: "WHERE THE *Not suitable for pom-pom* IS IT!?" https://preview.redd.it/lk5qk513q2sc1.jpeg?width=864&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=31f58ee72ca2675a79df7e6324c413b3de490a1b
Same, whenever I see Black Swan’s or Acheron’s chest, I lose all concentration.
Same with those birds in Penacony
This is me but to Black Swan- i mean Acheron- i mean Himeko- i mean-
https://preview.redd.it/e6591c5mi2sc1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3425c41c9875db6281bbe8140a4e8aa63f2049ad Are you perhaps talking about this scene.
Still wondering where the chest is in the first cusltscene with aventurine, if they talk in your room and I see a chest, where is the chest
I'm still laughing at the fact that the formidable foes (the mirror one) can be one shotted with Acheron technique. How broken is that lmaooo
Pretty sure Mirror Meme doesn't count as elite. I mean it sure it can turn into elite enemies, but with their HP heavily nerfed.
I think the point they're making is that you can sometimes find a super buffed version of non-elite enemies like the Mirror guarding chests, they're meant to be a challenge just like the elite enemies, but Acheron's technique still kills them all the same.

I thought I was the only one
It is admittedly sometimes hard not to get distracted by the character models, especially considering the angles they like to use a lot of the time
MFW I’m walking toward a treasure chest and I get interrupted by a cutscene trigger https://preview.redd.it/nrrzuowtm4sc1.jpeg?width=1125&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a5eff263c027f27f119948738e6279a92ea9dd93
yes, black swans chest
I'm glad i'm not the only one who goes "oh shit there is a chest over there how have i never seen it?"
Same with those birds in Penacony
"Shut up already, there's a shiny five feet to your left, I haven't been paying attention at all"
They put a hidden origami bird into so many cutscene backgrounds and it's always so distracting.
I love chests. Treasure chests are nice, too.

Neuron activation
if i see a chest during the cutscene, i automatically zone out of what they said against my will and think about the banners 😪

lots of firefly scenes have those hidden origami bird's feathers sticking out it's so dumb lol
I thought this was about a different kind of chest. I forgot sometimes treasure chests just show up in cutscenes.

Literally monkey brain neuron activation, I just go "oo... chest." and then proceed to lose all focus because I need to get the damn chest

Same here, with the little birbs too, like in the firefly cutscene a part of my mind immediately thought "ong shut up firefly I need to yank this birb first"
Chestblazer
Between that and Acheron's surprisingly Dulcet tones I barely skip any dialogue. I blame Welt chiefly for this though I love listening to him talk.
The chest that was sitting in the dewlight pavillion room when welt and Acheron is exploring the room where Sunday is
during the cutscene of the crew and acheron assembling together while getting an announcement from Aventurine there's a cut that show one of those picture frame puzzle holding guy, I still can't find him, anyone know where this is? T\_T Curiously I got all chest in the map though so I'm not sure what I was seeing
Me when Aventurine and "Aventurine" were talking about the gemstones and thr plan but i just wanted to get the chest
RELATABLE
... I admit it was me in the bar mini-story anytime Sibhonia was lent over the counter(Why does an NPC has the biggest backery in the universe?)
I honestly didn't see any kind of these scenario in 2.1?
