when i got it i was unemployed enough to finish the main quest within like a week and then after some procrastinating systematically cleared 99% of the quest within the following month or two
60-LauraX2026-01-23 12:54
a week? I finished 3.0's AQ and Aranara questline within 3 days, subsequent aranara hidden quest and 100% exploration on the first Sunday of the update.
Yes, i was a COVID college student back then
Dyzinel2026-01-23 20:17
So, uh... Were you not reading their talk at all?
AGamingGuy2026-01-23 20:30
we're Genshin players, we don't read
60-LauraX2026-01-23 20:55
I'm reading, but even though I read them carefully I'm the type to only remember the general outline of the story. So don't blame me :D
voxpopiuli2026-01-24 15:22
i mean, how else would they procced to hate on aranara quests, if they'd read them dialogues? it's classic..
GlitterDoomsday2026-01-23 20:19
I still have chests from helping the Aranaras locked in and I don't think I'll ever finish that room LMAO
PetercyEz2026-01-23 14:48
So far I have unlocked the tree so I could spend my Dendrosigils!
Taiebelasmaa2026-01-23 11:49
I finished it in a year
Brain_Octopus2026-01-23 12:19
a WEEK ? More likely a life time 😭
YingXingg2026-01-23 12:36
It’s been years and I still haven’t finished it lol
LeiciaY2026-01-23 11:03
A great journey.
Holiday-Buy-02026-01-23 11:04
Is this aranara quest start?
A_Noelle_Main2026-01-23 11:06
It is, yes. The most unassuming WQ then, bam, surprise surprise.
Holiday-Buy-02026-01-23 11:11
I Never knew if I finished all the aranara stuff. Theres no way to check, right?
We_Are_Bread2026-01-23 11:21
The journal that you get should have some pointers regarding if any quest of the chain is incomplete.
Kaymish_2026-01-23 13:20
Have you got to the room full of chests? When you open the last chest you're done.
Ezmankong2026-01-23 17:40
Ehhh... Still gotta find those 15 chests that pop up 1 by 1 per daily reset in the aranara mailbox...
One of the chests is even in Liloupar's jail, so good luck if you haven't done Jeht's quest chain too!
SpacefillerBR2026-01-23 14:55
I never could even dream about how big this WQ was gonna be, like it's kind of insane who big it was and i'm all for it.
Vaiolette-Westover2026-01-24 01:02
It's just a whole Zelda game hiding in plain sight.
ezio452026-01-24 01:20
Plays like how any JRPG does.
Start: Help a ranger kill some mushrooms.
End: Destroy the avatar of corruption.

I've been working on this bit by bit for the past 4 months (spoiler alert: I haven't even finished the Tree Nursery of Dreams yet)
isshinari2026-01-23 11:30
A wonderful quest with deep implications being dragged through the dirt by generation Tiktok and their 6s attention span. 🤷🏻♂️
probe2k2026-01-23 12:33
This has nothing to do with the tiktok demographic. A wonderful quest was the sumeru one about dunyarzad. This was an annoyance, by day 3, I could only speak in vowels because of cognitive overload from that Aranara sound.
YingXingg2026-01-23 12:38
This one is just straight up annoying. Why tf do I need to find 76 aranaras scattered throughout sumeru?? There’s other world quests that are way shorter and better than this one. Aranaras are cute tho
anaxuh_armpits2026-01-23 12:59
deep implications hidden behind 100's of meaningless dialouge that you are forced to sit through, theres a VERY good reason why they never made another quest like the Aranara one...
Neznaiu982026-01-23 13:29
I like how they immediately started proving you right, XD. But yeah, Aranyaka was great, one of the best WQ series in the game. I'm honestly thinking to make an alt just so that i could enjoy Sumeru again, from the AQ to all the WQs, from the forest to the entire desert. Perhaps when Nahida reruns, since i only got her halfway through on my main and often forgot to read minds during quests as well.
Accomplished_Sir_4352026-01-23 16:50
It's not about attention span. It's about time. The quest is long enough to complete two couple hour games(and more if you collect all aranara). Also, let's agree it has more dialogue than it needed
MaeveOathrender2026-01-23 11:36
The arduous process of learning how to take a screenshot, hopefully?
Ok-Mortgage-11622026-01-23 11:37
please enlighten me with your divine knowledge of screenshotting for I am too naive to grasp such a complicated topic
MaeveOathrender2026-01-23 11:46
prt scrn
AbroadPlumber2026-01-23 11:52
Doesn’t work in game for me for some reason, quite irritating.
MaeveOathrender2026-01-23 11:54
There's about seven different ways to take a screenshot, and you can probably customise your own if you're tech savvy enough to download a video game. F12, prt scrn, Windows + S, Snipping Tool, whatever you fancy. All of them render much cleaner images than taking a photo of the screen.
Commercial_Life51452026-01-23 12:30
Nope, prt scrn and windows SHIFT S all make the character sprint
MaeveOathrender2026-01-23 12:31
Insane to me that so many people cannot figure out a basic function of a computer by themselves.
AbroadPlumber2026-01-23 12:59
I’ve been using computers since the dial up days, and use CAD frequently, believe me I’m not inept with a computer. What irritates me is that the explicit function used for it doesn’t work, but apparently that may be a setting issue which I’ll try. Lots of places I wanted to use the Kamera and couldn’t as well.
InternetKaJamai2026-01-23 12:11

I found all 76 aranara simply because I'm a completionist and had no idea you get a reward for this. I was so shocked when I saw that >!cave full of chests!<, so that's definitely a pleasant memory.

currently doing that on my new account, already did that for my main account (which I lost in 2024, dec) years ago :D
This is a good but extremely long quest chain with a lot of confusing dialogues, didn't hate it, but holy... one thing is doing that when you have nothing else (during 3.0, once you do everything else) and another thing doing 3.0 content when there is already cinema content up to 6.3. Personally don't want to rush so taking my time, but damn I look forward to Nod Krai stuff...

Its a long quest... its not even time gated.. just commit yourself to exploring sumeru forest for a couple of months and you'll be done. If you love grinding, its a great quest, else its a nightmare.

Oh my goddd, I love this quest, a bit tedious but good nevertheless. I regret that I had to skip it cause I desperately needed the gems. Had I done it in one go, it would have taken me 3 days
Here's a tip: if you hadn't explored sumeru nicely/ don't know mechanics well, in some parts of the quest it will be difficult to know what is to be done (the explanation isn't that good), I had to open yt several times just to figure out what I had to do (personal experience)
