The Two Missing Elements & The Truth of Teyvat | Genshin Impact Theory

11:50 - There is more IQ in this picture alone than all of the 980 million Teenagers using TikTok combined.

This must be how King Deshret’s people must have felt when he unleashed forbidden knowledge on them.

Pneuma ousia is gonna get further developed and we will slowly be introduced as « light » and « abyss » for sure

A couple things to note is that Hoyoverse Confirmed that Genshin and the Honkai universe “Honkaiverse” are connected as the Genshin world is a leaf on the imaginary tree like hi3 and hsr. Also they did confirm that Dainsleif would be playable in the future.

I don’t know why it’s not well known, but actually Dainsleif is confirmed to become playable in the future (they confirmed it in a Chinese livestream before the release of the game). His element is also present, but it’s an unknown symbol (the one you showed).

I like the hypothesis thay traveler isn't actually gaining new elements with the statues, but regaining their old power, in segments. That being the power of light. Or imaginary, if you prefer. If you were to combine all the wavelengths of light that represent each element, you'd get the color white, like light. So one of the missing elements is actually just every element combined into one. The other, abyss, i can suppose would be the reverse of that. How that works, i really don't know.

Quantum and Imaginary elements are totally going to get added.

10:18 You are 100% correct, the animators did not have to add this detail but they did. Genshin animators are extremely passionate about the game. I wish I could say the same about some of the other branches.

I honestly believe light and dark will be the new elements. We still have celestia and khanreia to explore

Hoyoverse actually confirmed during a Bilibili livestream on September 27, 2020 that Dainsleif will become playable! And obviously he doesn’t have any vision we know of so abyssal power will eventually become playable

Holy shit that was the best explanation of quantum mechanics I have ever seen, not a single professor I know could explain it that simply.

Imagine if Dainsleif is just a hydro character with region based gameplay quirks 💀

I wonder if the relation between Imaginary and Quantum is inspired by the fact that a wave function has no real physical meaning and contains the imaginary unit but turns into a real probability when you square it? Probably not.

In all seriousness, this is one of the best lore videos regarding this game I have seen in a while. I unironically was able to follow all the information and it was all very intriguing and widened my view of the scope of Genshin’s lore (as well as real-world mythology in the process)

Every fighting gacha game eventually has a light and dark element. In addition, the heroes will gain some type of "awakening" upgrade.

Can't believe you mentioned all those physicists but not Dirac, the guy who saved my ass by making all quantum mechanics calculation use brackets and simplify all calculations that I do a lot

Pneuma and Ousia are greek words Pneuma/Pnefma (correct pronunciation) = spirit in greek Ousia/ooseea = substance in greek As a greek, the inclusion of many mythologies and this whole confusing story is quite fascinating and making me enjoy the game even more

Wouldn't this explain why the MC is developing all the elements of Teyvat? To ultimately achieve their forsaken power of Light as was suggested during that same Dainsleif Story Quest when it showed that our sibling apparently has her original powers back? Not sure but when you think about it the MC is actually going to be much stronger when his original Power is restored and will be refracted through all the elements he's achieved during his journey, like light turned into a rainbow, lol. His Sister even wielded her original sword!!! These two "Forces" Light and Darkness isn't considered elements but is a 'Source' of all the elements, we also got a taste of the Light Power during one of the quests a year or so back when we had to collect these type of "Light" sigils remember?

When you said you had a theory vid for Dainsleif on your community post, I did not expect it to be this good... Well done man.

I like these topics. That said, I think Hoyoverse does a better job in creating a hard "science magic" or "quantum-spiritual" system for it's titles than others like the MCU, which became random soft-magic trash after Endgame. I also played Honkai for years, and you can see that despite the technobabble , it's well-written and well-thought of techno-babble. I have a theory that the reason why Hoyoverse is keeping consistency in their quantum-spiritual/technomaguc systems is because they will have a grand crossover game that will take place across the whole of Quantum-Imaginary Space and the different worlds (games) that it holds, something like what Capcom has done or Dissidia but with a grander attempt.
