Honkai: Star Rail Discussion Thread

[Le'garde273]

Cyrene is supposed to embody the Cosmic Soul’s Love (analogized as Aphrodite), which is what directs all beings towards the higher principles like Nous (Intellect/Demiurge).

For Neoplatonists, the material world (which is considered to be a shadow of the Forms/Nous/Intellect/Demiurge) is still meant to be appreciated for its beauty contrarily to what Gnostics believe. This reflects to Cyrene wanting to save the universe even if it means being “shackled” (going with the cave analogy).

But as I said, it was some Neoplatonism larp Shaoji assumed that normal mfs were js supposed to get somehow. But he forgot to make it comprehensible to normal mfs.

@Rakih_Elyan
Whoever wrote that is a larp btw, because the One being beyond Being is one of the main tenets of it

Meanwhile genshin

Id get back into genshin if paimon wasnt the narrator cause i actually enjoyed fontaine a lot

Fontaine was so good hsr had to copy furina twice (misha and cerydra) and nouvalette with hysilens and 3.5

 

[SuperNova55555]

Meanwhile genshin

HOLYYYY LARP. I knew genshin was a Gnosticism larp but I didn’t know they said the Forms were NOUMENAL LMAO

 

[Mbpoops]

So wait did phainon hurt the actual nanook or just his avatar? Im hoping its the latter.. (for hsr fans)

 

[Ezalipaz]

since it happen in Path space its most likely real one

Larp larp larp sahur

I am quite sure what lygus mention here is how aeons and path are being "shadows" Projected from world of forms. Since you know... He's plato fans

Depends what you mean by “avatar”. Aeons are literally defined as just “condensed philosophy”. What Phainon hurt was indeed his “real body”, which in some way can be understood as the avatar of that philosophy. But it was his real body

Sonnnnnnn aeons are actually kevin and cof victims

Like the physical manifestation cause like acheron killed a IX shadow but not the real IX i thought the physical aeons were just their avatars and the real forms were abstractions

 

[Ezalipaz]

wank man upscale lets goooo

Castorice gpt generate me a hax that will get lord ravengers past base kevin

This is just referencing how Lygus defined Paths and Aeons and the birth of Nous “eternally fixated” them in a sense to that definition. This caused the world to be “shackled” to Paths since Nous trapped everyone in a Knowledge Singularity.

No thats js something IX does specifically. The game will tell you when when an Aeon exits fr or they have some special form.

Like. The cats are literally Terminus. Qlipoth literally exists near the IPC base. Oroboros literally eats planets. As far as I’m concerned, only HooH and IX have been stated to not necessarily have a form and whatnot

Another instance of hoyo writers just forgetting things lets make out higher dimensional gods basically strippers (qlipoth)

 

[Mbpoops]

Wait so terminus is actually 10-C? Holy smurf

I mean like, they have some conceptual aspect to them definitely. We explicitly see this with Tayzzyronth and Ena and stuff but the difference here is equivalent to a soul and its body. Like you wouldn’t say Zephyro’s body “isn’t Zephyro” lol.

An Aeon’s Divine Corpus (as it’s literally called) is basically their literal form. They just possess some “philosophical” or “conceptual” part to them which intertwines with their Path.

This makes a lot more sense tbh. Their physical form is fodder and their “spiritual form” is less fodder. So terminus is still 10-C

I mean yea, it’d be pretty stupid to think they’re js physical guys lol. But they definitely have a “divine corpus” or body. Those bodies do have their own special aspects tho. Like Nanook is literally made out of Honkai

Im still tempted to separate their physical manifestations from their physical forms as different keys.. but yea this makes sense

 

[Jackof_noTrades068]

They dropped this statement and year later made someone who has experience fighting cosmic forces comparable to them anyway

Stuff like this made me wonder for a while if there’s no communication between the HI3 and HSR sides of the writing team.
Now we know they’re actually the same guys who were on HI3 before.
So they really just forgot or think 800 Petatons and Planet busting doomsday beast could coexist

They want to make their stories realistic but keep the space fantasy trope so you’ll have moments where they nuke the universe but cant move a mine cart

 

[Jackof_noTrades068]

All that effort to get past base CE Kevin then he just goes AHR anyway and gets that 100x above Dudu amp before one tapping

Insane how even the MCU has more consistency AP wise despite having more genres, settings and writers (don’t mention speed)

We already had an Aeon fight last planet (Penacony). And we’re gonna become an Aeon this planet lol.

Next planet we might genuinely be seeing an Aeon battle royale like how LOTM did it for GOOs.

“These characters kinda fought along side each other”

“These characters have the same classification”

“These characters are kinda treated as a grouping”

Always knew Himeko scales to Welt cause they both got Express Passes and sometimes characters say an enemy is too strong for the entire crew
