Spoilers and Lantern Right

This is only my third lantern right so I might be wrong, but from what I remember of the Gaming and Lan Yan events, they made sense with little context and didn’t rely on major world state things. I was surprised to see that this year’s references the newest archon quest so much, and relies on an understanding of a major change to the world state (the real moon descending).

I’m just curious about what people think this does for new players? They either have to rush through 7 chapters of archon quests and catch up on 5 years of Genshin if they want to understand what’s going on, or play it and spoil a ton or just be confused. This seems like an odd choice esp. since lantern right is a good selling point to bring in new players.

What do people think about this?

This year Lantern Rite Story is permanent so it make sense if it include spoilers.

Genshin locks some events behind archon quests or other things. I remember when I first started, I wanted to play an event but I hadn't done certain story qussts/hang outside and had to finish those before doing the event. Im not sure if it changed though since ive been playing patch by patch since Sumeru's release.

nowadays you can quick start event story. but obviously you'll spoil yourself a bit if the event bring up plot points from main story

Tbh it's pretty dope that they did it this way because what happened in nod krai has a major impact on the whole teyvat and not mentioning it specially when they are bringing the white horse adeptus in the game, who resides on the moon. It would have been boring for the players who enjoy more. So it's the best thing for the players who keep up with the kore and follow it precisely. But you're right it might be disappointing for the new players but the quest is locked though, if that helps a bit.
And yess it permanent too, so they can just keep for later.
