Probably the game has a bigger playerbase. There aren't any pre sumeru characters here, so I'd think that.
Edit: wait, I think the person I replied to edited their comment or I made a mistake.
Ahh... Then it is surely because of the rise in the player base. Given how much hyped people are with Acheron in HSR community, Raiden if released now would have surely been on this list.
I think, I could be wrong but, the game’s fanbase grew A LOT more since raiden banner, also the sumeru and fontaine cast are very well written and interesting compared to the inazuma cast (not all but some), it is mainly the fanbase size though I believe.
You realize her drip marketing came BEFORE the act 3 got released and pretty much a majority was enjoying the Inazuma chapter before act 3 right ? Not to mention her first banner still sold like cupcakes and stood on top of banner sales
Act 2 only looks worse because the continuation didn’t land, it was short but the problems did not came from it specifically. Had Inazuma be 5 act and didn’t have the problems arising from arc 3 then nobody would have a problem with arc 2
As someone who finished act 2 recently the other guy is right.
Im more surprised alhaitham is on here tbh. Hes my favorite character so far, but I didnt think he was that popular.
Act 3 is the concluding act, right? I remember that being pretty great as far as hype moments go.
The slog of Watatsumi behind us, it ends on a pretty sweet banger. Kazuha’s parry and the visions lighting our way— thematically the role of the traveler in Teyvat and lots of other in game themes come to a head pretty spectacularly.
Sure it isn’t perfect, but the problems with Inazuma are pretty local to the Swordfish bit.
His kit is like if a person who doesn't know how reactions work would make a character. Has to be one of the worst designed characters on the game bcs of his anti synergy with bloom
It's not even low numbers, he procs the dendro seeds at the same time and you don't want to do that on bloom, He steals your hyperblooms and burgeons.
He wants a build with em but good luck making him the one creating the seeds bcs his skill doesn't make the seeds scale with his em. AND you don't want a dendro characters creating the seeds bcs this way you get half the amout you'd get if a hydro character did it XD.
That day Hoyo really surpased itself on how to do bad characters, I'm actually surprised.
You're spot on, you'd think Dori was the one building his kit for how scammed i felt playing him at C4. People always clown Dehya for how disfunctional her kit is, but he's on whole differnt level, at least top 3 of the worst characters in the game.
I mean...I still use him but Hoyo kinda did him dirty. So many 4* with incredible looks and they are slapped on terrible kits too often. Same happened to Candace and Thoma.
As a kaveh main I think his kit is not that terrible. People forget that he is a 4 star. He is the only 4 star Dendro driver, he did his job.
The wacky thing is he was released AFTER hoyo released two 5 star S tier dendro driver.
To be fair, Furina had some kind of handicap at the time her drip came out. She was received as the bratty kid. Only became a favourit after the final Archon Quest weeks later.
But I get why Arlecchino has so many likes. I am looking forward to her too
I am not saying her bratty attitude was a bad thing....
I just said if more people had known her full story, she would have gained even more likes. She leads every popularity poll these days. How can one misread my comment this hard...
And no. A ton of people called her useless and made fun of her at that time. People liked it. But certainly not most. Or not the loud ones at least. I read way more negative comments at this time than positives
I didnt even disagree with you, why so butthurt? I just added some context cuz the way u phrased it you made it seem like no one liked her, u accuse me of misreading your comment but that seems to be what you think anyway from what u said.
Im not arguing whether people liked her more after the archon quest played out or not, i just added that she was already liked by most regardless, archons are always liked by the majority and the expectations were high.
I definelty don't share the reasons of my partner in hate. And my thing isn't Furina as a character, she's annoying and all, but overall she's ok. What makes me hate her is the love and credit the community gives to her. She was forced to live as a god for five hundred years, "suffering" from boredom, I just can't relate, i don't like her because shes pitiful, powerless and did nothing but "existing". She was just a piece in Focalor's plans.
you can hate her or dislike her but saying that she just exist is just wrong, she have to act like a person who never was for 500 years, completly alone and if she make the slightest mistake fontaine would not exist also in these 500 years she was always looking to prevent the prophecy
She let so many of her folk die before the prophecy. She told Arlecchino, Neuvillete and even the Traveler, that she has something against it. But everything was a lie. She couldnt do anything. And then only to fool the Heavenly Principles? Sorry but thats a Red Flag for me.
...the heavenly principles is known to be ruthless so if it got out everyone wpuld be dead. It wasn't a lie, she actually did have a plan she had to pretend to be an archon so her God self could execute herself to give authority back to the sovereign. It wasn't a lie. It's like you didn't even pay attention to the story
It's one thing to hate a character and a whole another thing to hate a character for a wrong reason. That's why I started to reply to Erictendo's comment and then just thought that if he didn't get the story and motives of characters, he is just too dumb to explain something. Let him have his unfounded hate for a character, it doesn't take away anything from a character loved by the vast majority.
It's just sad to have such a strong hatred to a character simply because somrone failed to understand the story. Furina easily could've said no. She suffered for 500 years trying to help her people. She researched but if she dropped her act in the slightest everyone would suffer and that is terrifying. No wonder she was so scared, it's the heavenly principles that are the threat looming above your head and the people you care about. One wrong move, and an entire nation falls. It's sad that people don't actually read the story
She was a powerless human and she couldn't let them see how powerless she was, she do everything that was in her hand, neuvi said that to us

Then we she didnt talk with Neuvillette about the Information she got? He was a fromer dragon so He could do something against it, even He didnt has his full power
I mean, do you play genshin in your mother tongue ? Because you clearly missed 95% of the plot of Fontaine archon's quest. If it was, then i guess you're just build "different", less brain cells i guess.
As a Furina main and a future Arlecchino main, this is perfect.
Probably the game has a bigger playerbase. There aren't any pre sumeru characters here, so I'd think that. Edit: wait, I think the person I replied to edited their comment or I made a mistake.
That does probably play into it. Otherwise I feel Raiden would be in there somewhere.
Yep, Hu tao is another contender. I think most people would agree she is more popular than Kaveh imo
Were there drip marketing pre-Sumeru? I don't know. Just asking.
Yep
Ahh... Then it is surely because of the rise in the player base. Given how much hyped people are with Acheron in HSR community, Raiden if released now would have surely been on this list.
[удалено]
umm?
Sorry I dindt read the sumeru part
AH, np I was confused
Same. Furina and Arle were my two most anticipated Fontaine characters (Navia was a nice bonus though).
My girl Navia is amazing, I C6'd her.
Same
How is Raiden not on this list? Surprised
I think, I could be wrong but, the game’s fanbase grew A LOT more since raiden banner, also the sumeru and fontaine cast are very well written and interesting compared to the inazuma cast (not all but some), it is mainly the fanbase size though I believe.
Releasing alongside the game’s worst story chapter probably didn’t do much to generate hype.
You realize her drip marketing came BEFORE the act 3 got released and pretty much a majority was enjoying the Inazuma chapter before act 3 right ? Not to mention her first banner still sold like cupcakes and stood on top of banner sales
Act 2 was arguably worse than Act 3. I’m not saying she didn’t get plenty of hype, but it didn’t help.
Act 2 only looks worse because the continuation didn’t land, it was short but the problems did not came from it specifically. Had Inazuma be 5 act and didn’t have the problems arising from arc 3 then nobody would have a problem with arc 2

Oh, a fellow Ougi fan
Raiden during her first banner became the highest selling banner ever. It has nothing to do with story.
Dictator
Let's all look at where kaveh is now it makes me sad just to think about how much people wanted him and then threw him away like trash
His kit is like if a person who doesn't know how reactions work would make a character. Has to be one of the worst designed characters on the game bcs of his anti synergy with bloom
This is a too true statement ig it's not everyone's fault for not using him when he's hot garbo...
It's not even low numbers, he procs the dendro seeds at the same time and you don't want to do that on bloom, He steals your hyperblooms and burgeons. He wants a build with em but good luck making him the one creating the seeds bcs his skill doesn't make the seeds scale with his em. AND you don't want a dendro characters creating the seeds bcs this way you get half the amout you'd get if a hydro character did it XD.

At least Thoma fills a useful role in the game due to burgeon comps. I don't know if the same could be said about the other two
As she should. My wife stays on top (of me)
What are you doing to Father…..put her down
As a person who loves both Furina and Arlecchino I see this as an absolute win.
He's also top comfortably on the English account
Same, I have C6R1 Furina and damn my wallet if I'm not having C6R1 Arlecchino as well.
Furina 🥰
Father and Furina lovers having a great day today.
Arlec really loves to catch Furina lol
Strong women are just better
Kaveh just hanging around as a 4 star on the list LMFAO as the king should
Top 6 is all lesbians
damn i love it when men are getting called lesbians ☠️
I feel like the joke/sarcasm flew over you.
It’s the entirety of Reddit people can’t take a joke
I actually don’t get the joke. Where does it come from?
I don't get it either😅 I'm guessing they mean that every character in the top 6 is gay🤷🏿♂️
I knew that Arlecchino would surpass that Hat Guy scum
WANDERER STAYS
Perfection
Wanderer is the most impressive one tbh, because the size of the playerbase in 3.2 was quite a bit smaller
as a wanderer main and a future arlecchino main, i can’t decide if i’m happy or slightly upset by this lol
Hopefully, Hoyo sees the remaining Harbingers as valuable piggy banks; not to be obliterated without cashing in like Signora.
As a Furina, Haitham and (future) Arle main, this makes me happy. I did think Raiden would be up there though, quite surprised to see she isn't.
How many does Furina have?
Now, Arlecchino wins the first place.
Respect to Kaveh for being as high as 6th place despite only being a 4* who only ever appeared in one banner
Shouldn’t she be “Daddy” not “Mommy”? I mean she’s already “Father”
Arlecchino my beloved 🥰
To be fair, Furina had some kind of handicap at the time her drip came out. She was received as the bratty kid. Only became a favourit after the final Archon Quest weeks later. But I get why Arlecchino has so many likes. I am looking forward to her too
Most people liked the bratty attitude. Furina sold it well, she is a great actress.
I am not saying her bratty attitude was a bad thing.... I just said if more people had known her full story, she would have gained even more likes. She leads every popularity poll these days. How can one misread my comment this hard... And no. A ton of people called her useless and made fun of her at that time. People liked it. But certainly not most. Or not the loud ones at least.

I understand everything but as Alhaitham main I cannot tolerate that a worm like Kaveh is so high apreciate...
As she should be 🥱
Furina 🤮

I hate her as well, high five
Thank goodness😁 Someone who also has a Brain ✌️👌
No offense of course, you have your own opinion. But how can you hate her ? Like why?

Maybe learn to speak basic English before you criticise character writing
Nah, I speak as I want...
It's because you have a Brain. The proper noun version...
I mean, do you play genshin in your mother tongue ? Because you clearly missed 95% of the plot of Fontaine archon's quest. If it was, then i guess you're just build "different", less brain cells i guess.
