Not gonna properly review this story arc until Penacony has concluded because I don't want to pull the trigger too early, but man... Fucked up how HSR is the most I've enjoyed a game in this style since Dragon Quest XI.
Yeah, gacha game, I know, but I've been playing JRPGs since I was old enough to read and hold a controller and it feels like every big JRPG developer just gave up trying around 2010.
Yet here's HSR with cool boss fights, endlessly engaging iterations on its mechanics, great intersection of gameplay/story, Tingyun and solid writing that isn't rehashing JRPG writing tropes from uh... The 90s.
Penacony rocks, dude. I hope this statement doesn't age like shit.
10/10 I wish Black Swan would call me 'darling'.

This update is truly the pinnacle of Penacony's story, and the update that did manage to get me love this arc after how 2.0 and 2.1 did fail in doing so
This update was pretty much everything I had been wanting from early 2.0 and even somewhat before the arc started, and I'm so glad this update managed to deliver without fumbling it

How the hell did this game also have the Luofu THIS SHIT ROCKED EVERY SECOND OF THIS WAS COOL AS HELL
Penacony arc is unironically peak, cannot believe it took 4 worlds for the writing to get good.

One of the greatest mindfuck tunnel vision into peak climax for penacony
Thank you and I love you Firefly, Acheron, Aventurine, Robin, and Black Swan
