TBH sumeru (the desert mainly) drained many players lol but Fontaine feels so calming almost a homely feeling like mondstadt

Java:It's not like the city is going anywhere The Prophecy:👁👄👁

They finally learned and stopped making 10 hr long unvoiced quests with random NPCs. Fontaine is actually so enjoyable

why did he think he could do the fontaine archon quest without finishing sumerus archin quest 😭

i thought i was the only one that didn't bother do any of Sumeru's exploration, but Fontaine also does ignite back my enthusiasm for exploring in genshin

Fun Fact: If you use all of the swimming stamina, you won't drown. (only works in Fontaine)

Fun Fact: The current number of Hydro Sigils available is slightly over 630 (this also includes Hydro Sigils from Hidden Chests and Chests from Quest Domains), though the Fountain of Lucine cannot be leveled up past level 20 in version 4.0 so you end up with a bit over 30 Hydro Sigils extra if you've done/found absolutely everything.

17:41 The shield blocks the current so when it is going the wrong direction, block the current

Wake up baby java uploaded

24:34 that enemy has 3M hp and there’s another one of it. It’s the endgame boss everyone has been asking for.😂

the music for the fontaine is absolutely insane for both combat and non combat

I love the way they did diving so much. I have a fear of underwater and especially underwater caves, so i was worried that the underwater exploration would be miserable. Luckily, hoyo made every area very comfortable, colorful, and well-lit.

Fun fact: fontain characters can dash out of the water if you swim to the surface and hold w

Watching Java explore Fontaine without a single clue what to do just hurts my soul

Almost an hour video of Java?? Already a good day for me 🥰

45:00 ---- Lyney and Lynette are FRATERNAL TWINS, Lynette also has the RECESSIVE GENE of being a half-cat, they are BIOLOGICALLY RELATED. Fraternal Twins are basically 2 different eggs being fertilised by 2 different sperm at the same time, each in different tubes, leading to 2 twins that could be of different gender, and twins don't look identical to each other. Recessive genes are basically genes that remain dormant in some people of a bloodline, while being active in another person of the same bloodline. Lynette is an example of someone with their recessive gene active, while Lyney's is dormant. ----

This is me. I have sumeru desert at like 4% and I have all of fountain around 80% so far

Fontaine is actually fun to explore. I thought it would be overwhelming. Fontaine is the first region that I never used any KZfaq videos to get 100%. I have two areas 100% percent they had their challenges but it was pretty easy and fun. 😲💗 (Well I used 3, one for hydroculus, deciphering pages, and the legends)

It honestly hurts so much having to kill the cute seals and seahorses for drops! I always feel so bad

Imo, Fontaine's world quests have been the absolute best so far. It all being interconnected with the land, the Melusines, the Abyss, Alain Guillotin. I even felt vaguely emotional (I'm usually not very empathetic) when finishing Mary-Ann's quest, thinking about those long dead people and their complicated relationships. I hope they continue this storyline. I'm still curious about whether we'll ever "meet" Rene or find about what exactly happened to Carter. The music and atmosphere in these places was absolutely top notch as well.

14:36 mark waiting for him to realize that you don't drown when the stamina for sprint bar goes to 0

For the underwater ball and ring puzzle: This particular puzzle pushes the ball then pulls it back and in order to make it push it all the way into the ring. Use your skill for the shield then when the water current is about to pull the ball back towards it, block the current by staying in between the ball and the current while using the shield. And then when it starts pushing, stop blocking the current ans let it push the ball towards the ring. Ans then when it pulls back you're going to do the same process again until it reaches the ring.

17:05 I also spent quite some time in this puzzle because I don't want to look things up LMAO. but the way I solved is by: letting the ball stop in the middle from the current on the right (the one that pushes the ball towards the ring), then block the current from the ring (pressing E/activate shield from crab), and wait until the right current pushes the ball again to the ring.

Not gonna lie, that's how I explored Fontaine (But with a full team, tho I mainly used Alhaitham xD) This is the best experience imho, big world, just will to explore, and have fun getting side tracked, this is the best experience I've ever had in Genshin so far, and I started with the 3.4 Amazing region, exploration on point, I ended up finishing everything in 3 days, because was simply all so fun ♥

For underwater: There are 3 skills underwater that you can get from 3 different animals by poking them. The first one is the one you get from the sting rays that deals 16k damage. You have 2 charges for the skill and you can use them to both attack and/pr line them up and cut the seaweed to free chests and animals from the seaweed cages. The second one is the one that gives you the shield and you can actually parry using that shield by letting the enemies hit you with hydro then hitting them back dealing 54k damage ans it is actually the proper and correct way you're supposed to kill the tanky enemies with. You can also use the shield to block currents and you can break stones with blue scratches on them with that skill. The third one is the one that shoots waves of damage dealing 5k on impact per hit. And it can be used to activate echoing conches. You can activate lanterns that are locked inside a room by shooting them through the metal fence wall. And you can use it for long range and some times challenges.

I already know imma play this in the background while tryna finish the Fontaine story quest.

Ngl fontaine is the coziest and the best place to explore like its fr so good. Desert is more like a stressful and confusing journey which i didnt like lmao

"Second five star geo claymore" Itto has left the chat.

Fun fact: You can actually proc the Electro slashes from Raiden's E underwater, although you can only activate the E on land, of course. (Unless that was a bug and got patched already.)

fun fact, the traveler and lynette and any other fontaine character can dolphin dive when you dash and jump out of the water, every other character just surface

“the baby boars are so cute!!” *brutally murders them*

22:17 Basically it muffles the music and plays underwater ambience

I managed to finish Fontaine in like 4 days. Can't even imagine trying to do it within a day. ♡

I decided to take it slow with exploration in Fontaine as I remember speedrunning Sumeru and then being bored and burnt out, so with Fontaine I’ll be taking my time to avoid burnout

A whole hour of java completing fountain well this is gonna be a great day ☺️

I love this game and I know its got issues so the #1 thing I hate on YT is the whining genshin players, your channel is so refreshing, you play the game instead of trying to dissect why the developers didn't do thing A or why they didn't do thing B. so thank you def got my sub

"She's a cat... and he's not" actually, there is nothing fishy, it's legit just brought up, the Katzlien Heritage is just genetic, it's Dominant in Lynette and Recessive in Lyney, it's (although obtusely) mentioned in her friendship stories. To be fair, I've been working under this assumption since Mondstadt, since MHY loves their "Science-Fantasy" setting for Genshin, I kinda jsut knew that'd be the case.

Java slowly finding out things and having to just figure it out is why i wish he watched the videos. Like at least then he’d have a basic understanding, it’s not really spoilers, it’s literally gameplay tutorials

12:20 !NOT A LEAK! That person on the statue isn't representative of the current archon as it depicts the original/old archon, and doesn't get replaced when a new god takes over the region. Since Zhonglie and Venti are still the original gods they look like their statue (atleast to some degree) Also as Raiden is identical to her twin you can't see a difference either. So in Sumeru/Fontaine/Natlan the Satues aren't the Gods. Just a little fact to know if you didn't already. Also i loved the Video it was great, im thankful for the effort❤

SAME i did everything on the first day it was easy- anyway i love your videos i always watch them and put them on the background when i play games so thanks for making a longer video then usual!

I realized i got traumatized by Rana when i was exploring Fontaine. Whenever i see quests now, i have to wonder if this is gonna take me a week to complete.

Man if I did the same I'd probably end up with burnout real quick lol

29:20 OMG that’s so funny i didn’t expect it was possible without progressing the quest

44:25 this is the smoothest transition I've seen in my 457 years on this earth 😩🤌

It is so funny how every content creator I watch exploring fontaine the first npc they talk about is baguette. Tbh my first one as well tho

With swimming in Fontaine, you cannot drown. When you deplete the stamina bar, it just makes you go slower (like sprinting in the regular areas)

4:12 i laughed way to hard at this

17:57 There is. Read the G hints for the power thingy. Different underwater powers have different abilities. I have listed down below the usages for each creature's skill/power. CRAB = SHIELD The skill that you can get from the CRABS give you a shield which stops YOU and anything beyond you from getting affected by the water currents (you'll notice that without the shield, you and the ball will be dragged/pushed by the current--the shield stops that). You also use this against the crab bosses underwater as it is technically the only underwater attack that works on them without getting yourself killed first. The crabs are deadly underwater, especially the mid-boss crab. The crabs attack by spinning like a top towards you. You hold E and then release it when they're almost near you. It acts like Beidou's E skill which reflects their own damage onto themselves. Lastly, use the crab skill to break crystals underwater. It works very much like Zhongli's E skill. STING RAY = SLASH The skill you get from the STING RAYS help you slash through the kelp puzzles underwater. The kelp puzzles only get cut when you cut the green orb parts TOGETHER in one slash (which means you need to find an angle that allows you to slash through the green weak points simultaneously in one slash). There's a set of twin sting ray mid-bosses that you CAN NEVER KILL unless you have the sting ray's slash powers. Hold E and hit the "weak point orb" that appears when the two sting rays try to do a combo attack together. Hit it the way you slash through the kelp puzzles. SEAL = WAVE The skill you get from the SEALS help you attack things that are behind obstacles. Let's say there's a column in front of you and there is a portcullis (the grilled metal gates with square holes; just look the image up on google) on either side that encloses a pneumousia mechanism that you need to hit to open up the portcullis. You can use the SEALS' power of generating ring-like waves. The power literally acts like a WAVE and goes through the square holes of the portcullis and attacks the mechanism INSIDE it to open the portcullis. If that sounded specific, it's because that is exactly the first ever underwater puzzle I encountered. And I found out firsthand that while the seals look cute, they can actually very much kill you just by singing underwater.

its really rare seeing java actually enjoy genshin

I just wanted to do it in a week but oh my god that is a lot 😳 (I’m at average 75% per region with most of the hydroculus)

This is gonna be great while motivating myself to farm and do the Liyue story quest again! Thank you for bringing back by love for this game!

the fact that this one uncompleted region only 2 acts in took 24 hours really shows how big the rest of the game is

You're not alone!! The first time i went in the water i saw one of those ring puzzles. Got it through the first ring and then was very confused. I saw the second ring but was really dumb i guess. Turns out i needed to break a rock a ways away that opened up a current.

My two favourite genshin youtubers really push themselves to suffer with exploration and I live for it. I love it. It's great background noise for when I myself am suffering with exploration

seeing the Eula quest, and the Mona quest and the other story quest hurts my soul so badly

Loved watching you explore the area, great video as always :))

17:58 the solution for these water ball things is that you need to use the crab underwater skill to make a shield and use that shield to prevent the water currents from sucking away the balls so you can move them and put them in the ring

The details are so nice! Superb editing as always Java 🎉

I remember watching your Raiden reroll video almost a year ago,haven't seen a video of yours since then Still as entertaining as I remember,thank you❤

The new region looks amazing. But I haven't been playing genshin for a while now(since 3.5 or something)what I would love from hoyoverse that they make the event quest side quest or special quest which makes us feel like we will not miss anything major . Because event are like the main time gated thing . And don't give such much reward but just the weapons and crown and a few primos

I’m glad Fontaine is so much fun to explore, took a 6-8 month break and came back and I’m back to being addicted to the game, just wish they had a little bit more out of 4.0

Pretty epic progress, good job! Now all it needs is to repeat it for the rest of your accounts and maybe for the rest of regions too. On the plus side, it gets you quite a bunch of goodies you may like to use on upcoming banners. Personally I'm going to drag the progress for as long as possible. I did kinda rush the beginning to get city reputation but now I plan to not do any more than one quest per day. That way the new region might last me a bit... Yet I still think I'll be done way before 4.1 comes.

I don't know if you realize later in the video, but you can't drown with the Fontaine stamina bar even if it hits zero, above water or underwater

This is a nice change of pace

absolutely such a fun video. thank you java!

Ooh a nice easter egg is when you go to the Foutain of Lucine w the music and sfx muted and vo at max, some pretty interesting lines happen there!

This was the most enjoyable Fontaine vid I’ve seen yet Ty Java

This video was more entertaining than I imagined, to the point where I didn't even put it in the background and actually watched your whole Fountain journey in details 🤩 now I'm more excited about the new part of the map cuz that means another video like this one 🤩 On a side note, I wanna tell you that you should reeeeally farm as many primos as you possibly can in both swords annnnnd SPELLS only 🤭

Damn dude your videos are my favorite but this one brightened up my soul

ive had a really horrible day and java uploading on the exact same day made it 100x better

I've been waiting so long for a new vid finally

amazing video, looking forward to swords only too !!

Thanks for your hard work Java !

i just watched this without a single interruption and it was beautiful

48:59 "They somehow turned court into a mimigame" Danganronpa has been out there for 13 years.

In Natlan, there will be over 500 Pyroculus, I'm calling it

This guy has some talent; He made me laugh through the whole video just WOW!

the second it released i was like KOKOMI IS A TRUE FISH

I laughed hard with the "stay at the transportation" part hahahhah I would be the one who would always jump off as well. And the part that the chest and the circle thing spawned at the same time and you had to go all the way back to the chest 😂😂😂😂

Yay a new upload!!!! I love your vids java i don’t care what type of vid you upload i WILL watch

Honestly, the will power required to do all that is just- Hats off bro

I managed to complete everything yesterday. Glad to know others in the same boat haha

W video first video I've ever watched the whole way though on youtube!

around 12:15 or so, the idea of justice usually has the blindfolded woman holding a scale and a sword representing it so i wouldn’t be surprised if focalors is a sword user, given she is the archon of justice and therefore should embody the concept of justice (keyword should)

7:02, this cracked me so bad, java saying the board are so cute while unaliving them slowly😭😭

YES. After Fontaine i have been firmly convinced- Underwater >>> Land :D

Java darling, go outside and touch real sea water. I haven't even played the new update because i am in vacations but even when i play normally i don't finish the story quests so fast. Don't over do it

I wasn’t planning to go to Fontaine and collect everything till I finished the others but this video convinced me lmao 😭

Raiden: "You cannot defeat me with my 27K HEALTH"

22:40 im happy that im not the only one who accidentally enter the water canon

java just wanted to say that you’re my favourite youtuber 💞💞💞

Ninianne and Vivianne both have 20 Million HP, they're the current tankiest enemies in the game

I still haven’t met raiden and sumeru made me lose all motivation, but now I love Fontaine and I’m starting to play again. I’m gonna try to do the archon quests to catch up somewhat

The characters also have pnemia and osuia in them (The ones that originiate from fontaine like Lynette and Lyney)

This is def your best video ever

this video was actually really helpful at finding the lake sisters XD

Java: "HOAAA!! the baby boars are here too!! aww, theyre so cute!" also him: *proceeds to murder them*

u always make my day better when u uplode

Im so glad you mentioned erased. Somehow you managed to send a chill down my spine. Call me crazy but i fall in love with yashiro sensei😂
