Haven’t played for nearly 2 years now?

I stopped playing Genshin not long after Natlan came out, I was bored, overwhelmed and burnt out from the game and It just didn’t excite me anymore. The more I left it since I played last, the more overwhelmed I felt thinking about how much I missed. How many primogems, how much resin stuff you use when doing domains etc. I finally started to re play the game again once I saw about Nod Krai and seeing columbia and sandrone finally getting an appearance. I am completely overwhelmed with how much I have missed!!! Is anybody able to give me a small run down since the start of Natlan roughly what I have missed, not any major spoilers necessarily and If i should rewatch some of the offical genshin impact videos to get an idea of the lore currently. I’ve still got my cute OG squad like Yelan, Hu tao and nahida etc. I have no idea about any of the new characters except the main couple from the first 2 archon quests in Natlan🥲I am still tryin to figure out how to play the game again😂

You missed Hutao's second character quest locked in 2025 Lantern Rite and Raiden's third character quest locked in another event. And a bunch of other events full of character exposition as usual.

Story-wise, you missed some major lore bombs, you will realize that once you do the quests. After the Natlan Archon Quest, you really should watch the *God’s Limits* trailer. It’s genuinely excellent and adds a lot of context. This is the only video that adds to the lore.

Combat-wise though, you’re in for a rough time. The level of power creep Natlan introduced is on another level, and now on top of that we have this whole Lunar Charged mechanic. It should be doable but you will be overwhelmed by the level of enemies in stygian( the most recent new endgame) , imaginarium and the og spiral abyss.

Gameplay:

1. Genshin is moving toward a faction base combat system. Meaning people of the same faction has an innate synergy. (Night Soul, Hexeri and Ascending Gleem for example). As for Ascending Gleem, they added Lunar reaction. So new reaction for specific characters. They recently added Lunar Geo reaction and, in my opinion, really buff Zhongli usage. It is a lot of fun.

2. Natlan characters has a lot of movement ability, making exploration easier.

3. They added a roblox mode called Miliastra Wonderland. Several vocal few in EN community hates it. But it has been a huge success in Cn community. They made amazing games and depending on how well the game they made was a success they would get paid a good amount. The creator of one the most popular game was paid $25K worth. Whether in primo or actual money, I am not sure.

Lore:
1. The Dev has stated that they screwed up in the lore of Genshin. A lot of the important lore of Genshin is hidden in artifact, books and so on. The majority of players won't know this, so they decided to change things up. Natlan starts incorporating important world lore/book lore into the main story/world quest. But Nod Krai is the solution. They decided to delay Snezhnaya in order to have important set up and tell the world lore of genshin to the players in the main story. Nod Krai will have important world lore incorporated in the main story.
