This isn't about Arle, but Fontaine in general. I have always called this the greatest filler region in Genshin because 80% of it (Acts I-IV) had nothing to do with any progression on our main journey at all. Which has always greatly confused me on why it was hailed as the "golden standard" of Genshin writing when its quite literally nearly 15hrs of dialog bloat that has 0 relevance outside of Act V. Act I - murder mystery that leads nowhere Act II - Navia relationship issues/murder myster conclusion that leads nowhere. Act III - Go to jail to talk to NPC's for 4hrs Act IV - Even MORE jail + tea party with 4th Harbinger Act V - ACTUAL plot relevant events It is actually criminal how Fontaine took the crown over Sumeru for best writing during that time. Childe just became the biggest potential man of all time, so much setup for his character just to still be a chud rank 11 in NK. Clorinde was created to aurafarm and be a plot device for Navia yet gets called a better written character than Mavuika. Narzissenkreuz has gotten talked about and been MORE relevant than EVERY act of Fontaine. You could skip ALL Fontaine AQ's only play Narzissrnkreuz + Skirk SQ and be completely fine throughout Natlan and NK, that is how irrelevant it is.


@DangoRaidenEi @ZapolyarnyTsar Doctor Doom (Robert Downey Jr): You call yourself the personification of Eternity, a Goddess of Thunder... But before Victor von Doom, your lightning bolts are nothing more than static sparks, and your eternity ends now. Your people will need you.
