00:00:00
all right ladies and gentlemen it
00:00:03
appears 13 hours ago we had something
00:00:06
very very very exciting drop for the
00:00:09
weathering Way community and that is of
00:00:11
course drip marketing for the newest
00:00:14
festar character canella and before I
00:00:17
dive into a breakdown right of
00:00:20
everything that's going on with her what
00:00:22
she might mean in the story some of the
00:00:23
relationship she's going to have with
00:00:24
some of our existing characters I just
00:00:26
wanted to look into how godamn popular
00:00:30
is and I can give you two really really
00:00:33
good reasons why um and so you can see
00:00:35
over here 13 hours ago this thing
00:00:37
already has 46k likes and 1.4 million
00:00:40
views absolutely insane you're seeing
00:00:42
this other one over here with 21k with
00:00:44
the animated version she goes a little
00:00:45
bit crazy in that and we're looking
00:00:47
right we see characters like Brandt with
00:00:49
43k also very high to be honest we're
00:00:51
seeing chamelia with 52 do you recall
00:00:54
that was quite a while ago and way way
00:00:56
and the drip marketing isn't nearly as
00:00:58
high quality and then we've also got lot
00:01:00
with 34 and of course right it gets
00:01:02
lesser and lesser as we go on with
00:01:04
Phoebe down at 32 and probably less for
00:01:06
many of the other characters and so with
00:01:08
that it's pretty clear right that in
00:01:10
such a short amount of time canella
00:01:12
being up here at 46k is pretty crazy
00:01:15
it's it is it is a pretty sizable
00:01:17
achievement and I'm excited to see how
00:01:20
far this number is going to go it's
00:01:22
pretty clear that curo is doing
00:01:24
something right with the design of their
00:01:26
characters and even though it's kind of
00:01:28
clear that canella was kind of like a
00:01:30
bit more on like the dmy mommy whatever
00:01:33
you want to call it side I mean
00:01:34
following the release of a character
00:01:36
like Phoebe who's obviously right a lot
00:01:38
more conservative in how they look I
00:01:40
think it's you know something that is a
00:01:42
little bit give and take with the Goda
00:01:44
space right and it's pretty clear that a
00:01:45
lot of people are looking forward to
00:01:47
this character and so with that let's go
00:01:49
ahead let's dive into what is going on
00:01:52
over here so we're going to be seeing
00:01:54
canella in all over Glory a lot of
00:01:56
little jellyfishes and I'll tell you
00:01:58
what those mean in just a little bit so
00:02:00
let's get into some of her descriptions
00:02:02
over here the current head of falia
00:02:04
canella the Bane whether I am the bane
00:02:07
of the wicked or the pure is yours to
00:02:10
decide and so right off of the bat right
00:02:13
we're very familiar with the felia
00:02:15
family however we're only familiar with
00:02:18
one part of the felia family you all
00:02:21
remember if you've done carot story
00:02:23
Quest and I hope you have by now it's
00:02:25
been almost it's been more than 2 months
00:02:28
since that thing released they were
00:02:29
considered the bad guys throughout that
00:02:31
entire sequence if you would remember uh
00:02:34
one of the darkest nights in the monteli
00:02:36
family history was when the faelas
00:02:39
actually raided several of their
00:02:41
compounds and there were quite a
00:02:43
significant number of lives lost and
00:02:45
that is one of the elements of carat
00:02:47
story Quest that's focused on a lot
00:02:49
however one thing to note is that the
00:02:51
felia family as a whole isn't
00:02:53
necessarily evil there's a fair number
00:02:56
of them who you know get up to some
00:02:58
nasty things like Gil Baro was during
00:03:00
the main story Quest but as a whole it
00:03:02
doesn't necessarily imply that they're
00:03:04
all criminals for example Rosemary is
00:03:07
part of the felia family and as you can
00:03:10
tell right they've got kind of like a
00:03:11
they got kind of like a similar color
00:03:13
they got like a similar color aesthetic
00:03:15
going on but she is one of these NPCs
00:03:17
right across Renos that you're able to
00:03:20
go ahead and buy things from she makes
00:03:22
your life a lot easier she's definitely
00:03:23
somebody that you're visiting very
00:03:25
frequently right as you're going ahead
00:03:26
and you're leveling characters so it's
00:03:28
not like everybody in the felia family
00:03:31
is inherently
00:03:34
evil and you can see they got a bit of a
00:03:36
similar dress code going so just wanted
00:03:38
to get all of that out of the way before
00:03:40
you're thinking oh my gosh right we're
00:03:42
going to be playing like you know we're
00:03:44
starting to play villains now I'm pretty
00:03:46
sure that canella herot's in the story
00:03:48
they're going to be very nuanced they're
00:03:49
going to be very multi-dimensional and
00:03:51
there's going to be some dark there's
00:03:52
going to be some light but as far as we
00:03:54
can tell with the way that the 2.0 story
00:03:56
is going it's going to be pretty damn
00:03:58
good so with that let's get into some
00:04:00
more of her description the felia
00:04:01
family's 36th head canella felia she
00:04:05
locks your gaze with eyes as deep as the
00:04:06
ocean where dark Tides seem to Surge and
00:04:10
swirl so little bit different from Carla
00:04:13
who's kind of like the executor or kind
00:04:15
of like the second in line for the
00:04:17
montelli family canella is straight up
00:04:19
the head think of Carla's adopted father
00:04:22
being the head she sort of like the
00:04:24
adjacent version of that and this is
00:04:26
where stuff gets a little bit
00:04:27
interesting and I think this is where
00:04:29
notes of what she's going to do in
00:04:31
combat or what attribute she's going to
00:04:33
be become a lot more clear she locks her
00:04:35
gaze with eyes as deep as the ocean
00:04:36
where dark tidde seem to Surge and swirl
00:04:38
let me show you all a character or not
00:04:41
really a character but an enemy in weing
00:04:43
waves kind of the same Vibe right kind
00:04:46
of the same Vibe we got going on over
00:04:48
here where laurelai is inherently right
00:04:51
linked to the ocean and look at this
00:04:54
she's Havoc she is Havoc even though all
00:04:57
of her color coding all of that stuff is
00:04:59
supposed to be related to you know blue
00:05:02
the deeps all of that and I would just
00:05:05
imagine right where dark Tides seem to
00:05:07
Surge and swirl that to me and the
00:05:10
existence of her jellyfishes you know
00:05:12
the stuff I mentioned before and the
00:05:14
number of massive jellyfishes right that
00:05:16
appear in lauraliz fights well it's kind
00:05:19
of the same exact Vibe and so I would
00:05:22
imagine right that canella might
00:05:24
actually be a Havoc character and that
00:05:27
is again just linked to all of the
00:05:29
different context clues we have with the
00:05:31
main one being of course this boss that
00:05:33
we've seen featured so many times in the
00:05:35
story and guess what guys who was trying
00:05:37
to make laurelai go crazy Gilberto from
00:05:40
the felia family was trying to make
00:05:42
laurelai go crazy and that's because
00:05:44
they have like some sort of existing
00:05:46
relationship I wouldn't be surprised if
00:05:47
the head of the felia family is a
00:05:50
similar sort of element or a similar
00:05:52
sort of vibe to lorai given that
00:05:54
relationship that they had back in the
00:05:56
main story Quest and so with that for a
00:05:57
moment you think you Glimpse something
00:05:59
in the ocean's depths but you are unsure
00:06:02
if it is a shadow of a giant sea
00:06:03
creature or the tail feathers of a
00:06:05
Celestial Steed um and so this is where
00:06:08
it maybe turns to turns to reason that
00:06:11
maybe she could be a spectro character
00:06:13
as well a bit more sh keeper coded but I
00:06:15
would say if she was spectro 2 she would
00:06:18
look extremely extremely similar to shke
00:06:21
keeper cuz they're both wearing like
00:06:22
white dresses they both kind of have
00:06:24
like the blue aesthetic going on canella
00:06:26
is a little bit more purple while shke
00:06:28
keeper is just more like purely blue but
00:06:29
I think like having a bit more
00:06:31
differentiation would be better and if
00:06:33
canella ends up being spectro as well
00:06:35
well now we're going to have two you
00:06:36
know kind of like Mommy looking spectro
00:06:38
characters that both wear like dresses
00:06:40
and stuff and are going around you know
00:06:42
summoning and like doing all that stuff
00:06:44
in combat so I think she's Havoc this is
00:06:46
why I think she's Havoc felia family you
00:06:48
know does stuff with laurelai and she's
00:06:50
the head of it and they're kind of coded
00:06:52
exactly the same when it comes to Colors
00:06:54
the dark blue the purple Etc all of that
00:06:57
and just going by what she has showing
00:07:00
up over here the current head of felia
00:07:02
canella the Bane well there is a new
00:07:04
status effect in weing waves that is
00:07:07
actually called Havoc Bane and while
00:07:09
enemies are able to apply it right now
00:07:10
there's currently no playable character
00:07:12
on the roster that can apply it and so
00:07:14
if you're just reading some of the
00:07:15
context clues over here where she's
00:07:17
literally called the Bane well this
00:07:19
would be a pretty apt way of introducing
00:07:21
the mechanic and perhaps we'll see it
00:07:23
over here maybe her jellyfish is apply
00:07:25
it when it comes to what she might do in
00:07:27
combat clearly we have no ideas right
00:07:29
now but I would assume that these
00:07:31
jellyfishes they're some sort of like
00:07:33
summonable creature she's probably going
00:07:35
to use them a lot we see her using them
00:07:36
in the trailer over here and I imagine
00:07:38
that they're going to either do
00:07:40
coordinated attacks do something off
00:07:42
field have like a delayed effect
00:07:44
something that just persists beyond what
00:07:46
she's actually doing in combat and
00:07:48
that's what probably makes the most
00:07:50
sense for me otherwise they wouldn't be
00:07:51
featured so heavily in her splashart if
00:07:53
they weren't an integral part of her kit
00:07:55
that would be my take on it and we all
00:07:57
know what summonable creatures do I feel
00:07:59
like she's very finina coded you know
00:08:00
with how her three pets work in genin
00:08:02
now let's get into guys some more parts
00:08:04
of her marketing they also released this
00:08:06
absolutely crazy trailer so let's get
00:08:08
right on into it 15 seconds 15 seconds
00:08:10
but I promise you all it's a good 15
00:08:13
seconds so the jellyfish is floating
00:08:15
around deep in the ocean's depths who
00:08:17
else do we find deep in the ocean depths
00:08:23
Lor that's
00:08:26
crazy this is the part I was talking
00:08:28
about
00:08:30
this is exactly the part I was talking
00:08:31
about um why is she doing this I don't
00:08:33
think she does this in the splash art
00:08:35
she do do this in the splashart but
00:08:36
she's doing it here that
00:08:42
is these devs know what they're doing
00:08:44
these devs know exactly exactly what
00:08:46
they're doing they know that there's
00:08:47
probably a good part of their player
00:08:48
base that's uh a little bit frustrated
00:08:50
right that they have to uh you know Skip
00:08:52
a mail in the latter half of patch 2.1
00:08:54
they're going to have to skip brand to
00:08:56
go for their mommy only portfolio and um
00:08:59
yeah yeah she's here to drain them of
00:09:00
their aske completely the second patch
00:09:02
2.2 drops I'm assuming she's the first
00:09:09
character but yeah that's kind of crazy
00:09:13
that's kind of absurd and the thing is
00:09:15
guys I think that Kuro did an absolutely
00:09:18
amazing fantastic job with what they're
00:09:20
doing with this character because this
00:09:22
is not the first time we saw her if
00:09:24
you've been keeping up with things like
00:09:26
live streams if you've been keeping up
00:09:27
with things like all the story trailers
00:09:29
canella was actually first teased and
00:09:31
you're going to see what what is most
00:09:33
rewatched she was first teased
00:09:36
here together he and you can kind of see
00:09:39
over here right looking a little bit
00:09:40
different looking a little bit different
00:09:42
this is a bit of a close-up of her we
00:09:43
see some sort of perfumey action going
00:09:45
on over here dive the sea she's going to
00:09:48
be here for a closeup and you can see
00:09:49
we're getting a little bit close with
00:09:51
her right some could say neck and neck
00:09:53
some could say chest to chest but she
00:09:54
was teased way back 13 days ago right
00:09:58
during the live stream for the 2.1 patch
00:10:01
and let's just say she sparked quite a
00:10:03
bit of excitement across the community
00:10:05
and I love what C did here by releasing
00:10:08
all of this information on the upcoming
00:10:10
roster earlier and earlier that's
00:10:11
something that they did right with the
00:10:13
Del usual drip marketing they did for
00:10:15
2.0 and now with this character who's
00:10:17
now been officially confirmed we're
00:10:18
going to have this character who has yet
00:10:19
to be officially confirmed and of course
00:10:22
her her right everybody kind of knows
00:10:24
who she is already but this is probably
00:10:26
just another sign right the first of
00:10:28
these three is shown as playable I think
00:10:30
that this is literally the devs telling
00:10:32
us the next four playable characters we
00:10:34
have canella we have zanni we're going
00:10:36
to have whoever this redheaded elf girl
00:10:38
is and then caria dark mode and what I
00:10:41
am assuming is that this is the actual
00:10:44
order that the new limited characters
00:10:46
are going to be released in I think
00:10:48
there's a reason why it goes from Phoebe
00:10:50
here to Brand to Brandt here to canella
00:10:53
here and then zany over here cuz that is
00:10:55
the literal exact order at least these
00:10:58
these first three right that's the
00:10:59
literal exact order that the characters
00:11:01
are going to be coming out and so this
00:11:03
is what I believe if Kuro games does not
00:11:05
drip Market another character for the
00:11:08
next patch I think caner Bella is going
00:11:09
to be the only one for 2.2 however if
00:11:12
they do release another character I
00:11:13
would put money on it being zanni and if
00:11:16
they don't release zni I think she's
00:11:17
going to be in 2.3 and then this
00:11:19
character is going to be in either 2.3
00:11:20
or 2.4 and then she's in 2.4 or 2.5 it
00:11:24
depends on how that release schedule is
00:11:25
going we're see if they're going to do
00:11:26
two new five stars every single patch
00:11:28
but that is where my money is going to
00:11:30
be I think the order that we're seeing
00:11:32
it right here and brilliantly done by
00:11:34
Kuro games that is exactly how it's
00:11:36
going to happen and so this is the big
00:11:38
news right if you are a z enjoyer if you
00:11:41
have loved this character ever since you
00:11:44
set foot into Ren and she told you how
00:11:46
to use like the bank and you ate pizza
00:11:48
with her and had drinks and all of that
00:11:50
and you've still been in love then
00:11:52
guess what ladies and gentlemen I do
00:11:53
believe that she is finally going to be
00:11:56
the next one on the docket Kuro has
00:11:58
basically been eding us for the entirety
00:12:00
of the patch and I can think of two good
00:12:02
reasons for why they're doing that and
00:12:04
well it's finally time we're going to
00:12:06
have to wait I think at most one or two
00:12:08
more patches for her and she's been
00:12:10
cooking for a very very long time and so
00:12:13
with that that's going to be our
00:12:14
coverage on felia that's going to be our
00:12:17
coverage on drip marketing as a whole
00:12:18
I'm going to say that this is some of
00:12:20
the best overall marketing that I think
00:12:22
I've seen for a game um I think the fact
00:12:25
that as long as they go by this order
00:12:26
and the fact that they're teasing this
00:12:28
order this is one of of the best things
00:12:29
that they've done for players right
00:12:31
people know exactly who's going to be
00:12:33
coming up people know exactly who to
00:12:35
save for like who to prioritize and
00:12:37
they're releasing all of this
00:12:38
information right this was 13 days ago
00:12:40
they're releasing all of this
00:12:41
information super super early and so you
00:12:45
know everybody right sure you could be
00:12:46
somebody that looks at leaks even if
00:12:48
you're somebody that doesn't look at
00:12:49
leaks right you're going to know exactly
00:12:50
who to save for who to pull for um and
00:12:53
who to Target with your asterite and I
00:12:54
think that is awesome that's C sticky to
00:12:57
their word and that's a company right
00:12:58
that is trying to make the gameplay
00:13:00
experience as good as it can be for its
00:13:01
consumers and that's somebody who you
00:13:03
want to support let me know what you all
00:13:04
think peace out
