Let me know your favs and must-watches :) you can discuss the basic gist of the event and the characters in it but pls don’t spoil it since i do plan to watch all the ones recommended to me!

I also missed a lot of events. Personally, I really liked the second summer event, a parade of providence, and simulanka.

Simulanka is awesome :D

The Lantern Rite and Summer events are the biggest ones.

Hope this helps, let me know if you have any questions!

MutedAd17922026-01-22 08:45

personally I also recommend 3.6 parade of providence for crewmeru, it had fun interactions

Lazy-Marsupial25632026-01-22 09:02

I didnt play that one so cant really recommend myself

lightisbetterthanyou2026-01-23 09:04

Oh my gosh?! I am so excited, thank you so so much for this, I really appreciate it <3 also i am so glad i actually DID come back for simulanka and that’s one of the lore important only events i have done, so that’s awesome since everyone is saying that’s one of the best and i absolutely agree :D

Once again, thank you, this is such a great help and I will be spending the next month watching these videos slowly but surely :)

Lazy-Marsupial25632026-01-23 09:19

No problem! Let me know if you have any issues catching up to other relevant lore or need help in general. Playing genshin without all the background lore is a great shame

lightisbetterthanyou2026-01-24 07:47

Thank you so much omg :D , i actually make a post some time ago about where to start with all the lore and people recommended me content creators but the sm of the videos were out of order and i ended up just quitting and deciding I’ll come back to it at a later date, and so this was me trying to come back to it.

I will definitely ask you if i need help with understanding some of the lore, but for now where do you think I should start off with it? The timelines are something i find very confusing, so if you know what to start with or what videos are at the start of the timeline, that’d be so so appreciated!
