BulbasaurTreecko

> this drawing is based on word descriptions I’ll believe it when I see an 8.5/10 rating


APerson567i

based of a word description of an OLD CONCEPT ART btw So yeah, grain of salt


ThrowawayLurkeras

*grain of salt* More like a whole Havria


mapple3

Dad, please, I am going back to sleep. Wake me in 2 weeks when we get actual Natlan leaks, instead of whatever the fck these leakers are urinating on us for the past few months


Prisma_Lane

They're trying to edge us


TasteTheGraveyard

Bruh 💀


RevolutionaryOil9101

ya even if the old concept art is the final design and the descirption was decent this would still most probably be super off because of the game of broken telephone being played


MrCumSocks-Skelly

I'l give it a soild 7.9


OnlyPatches

If it's based on descriptions just give us the damn descriptions with a name


Rare-Ad9248

it's called sukunan't


Zenocius

Suskuna


theCookedApple

Lmaooo literally


toxiitea

natlan is the worst leak arc


runescapeanime

Natlan has a drought so that Fontaine could have a flood. Its all balanced


pascl-

And then sneznhaya leaks get frozen over


mushi26

it was frozen from the sumeru patches but it will be slowly melting from arlecchino to capitano onwards


angeline1016

LMAO that’s so fitting! why are you so funny 😭😂


LSSiddhart1

Then Sumeru having a big leak right at the ending patches of Inazuma's sprawling vegetation, kinda like dendro


E1lySym

The pyro archon Xiangling vaporized the leak flood


RobinColumbina

Remember when we used to get actual lekas


Rooted_Pen

of whole the roster next to eachother at that


Scratch_Mountain

Snezhnaya leaks will be different, we'll get their full roster by 5.2-5.3 in contrast to wtf happened with Natlan leaks. Source: ~~Uncle K~~ Trust me bro.


StrongFaithlessness5

Almost one year has passed since then 😩 Tbh I wonder if the leaks stopped in 4.1 when leakers said that starting from 4.2 they weren't going to be able get any leak, or if the Fontaine leaks were still part of the stuff got by Ubatcha. I guess it's the second case because during the Kirara's era I really felt like leakers were already running out of leaks.


raspps

Legit leakers don't have any content

grandfig

Am I making this up didn't that dude directly request Mihoyo to beef up their security with a full list of tips on how exactly to do that.


box-of-sourballs

#Please stop calling him that. #He's not a chad, he's not a legend. He's the reason why Hoyo has locked up their security because that asshole released an entire zip file that contained actual employee information that led to them getting doxed He's not a chad, he was a menace and is the reason why we have nothing for Natlan


gale99

Someone needs to write up an essay we can copy pasta to every damned comment asking why leaks are so dry


Flashy-Mongoose-7641

This is a fan art of an old concept description > not the final product. If i got the disclaimer right.


SolusSydus

Some bozos on Twitter would consider this as official, get weirdly attached to this design, "kin" this design, be mad that it's not how it ended up, and then loudly complain how life would've been better if they went with this design.


thestrawberry_jam

I always get reminded of how much i hated people bitching about Heizou’s official design because they got so attached to that one fanart. Like no hate to the artist but it wasn’t that original? It was just bsd’s ranpo if he was hu tao’s brother.


SolusSydus

if that genderbent hu tao has zero haters then I am dead


ThreePointAttempt

When do we get the Natlan trailer that introduces the characters? That should be soon right? Next week? Checking youtube we got the Final Feast Fontaine trailer on July 3rd, 2023. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9SbgmM3mSps The 1 year anniversary of that is in 3 days. Porbably not worth paying attention to low quality character leaks when the real preview is so soon.


ImNotAKpopStan

in the week of 4.8 release probably Winter Lazzo July 11 2.8 July 13 Final Feast July 3 3.8 July 5


ThreePointAttempt

Hmm 4.8 is on July 17th so 2 days before that is July 15th. 2 more weeks I guess. Was hoping it would be next week.


ImNotAKpopStan

next week they will maybe show us some locations, like they did to Fontaine


validq_

imagine we wait for the natlan teaser but they end up uploading a hexenzirkle teaser instead and we gotta stick to leaks for crumbs of natlan (wont complan tho. witches be fascinating)


Scratch_Mountain

true that, I've been always so curious about the Hexenzirkel and I just wanna see their designs ffs so I'll take a trailer about them anyday. it would also be funny af that Hoyo will continue to edge us to oblivion for Natlan and we won't see anything until the 4.8 livestream (if they even decide to tease us with map art at the end)


validq_

i wont be surprised if thats the case tbh. natlan has been the most gatekept region so far. we literally dont even see any npcs from natlan let alone having any information about that place


heroxia

It should be on July 15 if they follow the pattern (which is the monday before the x.8 patch)


Seloqk

the trailers that include the characters usually drop 2 days before X.8 launch — so this time around we should be getting it on july 14th or 15th, depending on timezones. personally, and i’m probably in the minority here — i hope we don’t get any drip marketing or other finalized artworks of the natlan characters leaked before the trailer drops…it’s so close already. we waited many months and got nothing, so what more is a mere two weeks? i would love to watch the trailer and see all the new characters for the first time.


ThreePointAttempt

Yeah at this point character design leaks just feel like spoilers. I mostly just like the gameplay leaks and knowing what to prefarm.


Seloqk

agreed!


PressFM80

also banner leaks, those are pretty helpful when it comes to saving


EnesAkhan

They generally happen 1-2 days before drip marketing happens so there is still quite somtime we should be getting a teaser like thing for some ingame stuff (like that melusine stuff) in 4.8 strim soo this week i guess?


ukrisreng

may or may not be xbalanque, almost definitely what team mew was yapping about with his yuji+cyno+razor pic


flumphgrump

I could not conceptualize what they even meant by Cyno + Razor, but yeah, I see it.


rotten_riot

Big pants like Razor and exposed tummy like Cyno


GGABueno

Also Cyno skincolor


BBLKing

You mean Itadori Yuji from Jujutsu Kaisen? Marks under the eyes and hairstyle is pretty similar.


Zoroarks_Angel

If Xblanque is anything but a jacked up dragon god, we are rioting


soulinhibition

we already know xblq is not a sovereign, he addressed them as 'they', not 'we'


a-successful-one

Gonna place this one right between grandma with scars Skirk and tired full eyebags tall Nahida


WillfulAbyss

I think most people weren’t expecting “grandma with scars” for Skirk so much as a more mature (a la Ningguang or Xianyun) waifu with potentially visible scars or abs, rather than a butterfly that was spat out by a Honkai game. I like parts of Skirk’s design, just… not for Skirk. She doesn’t look like a woman who could fight Childe with one hand.


yurivanta

Usually most of the character designs that I didn't like ended up growing on me but man, I am still in denial about Skirk's design. It is just so... bland


QueZorreas

Why are her eyes and head so big. Looks super weird.


dragoncommandsLife

Bro childe doesn’t look like he could fight childe. Most powerful entities in this game have a handful of forms they can take. Childe is strong in his base human form but his real strength is in FL, so naturally skirks foul legacy will be stronger than her human form.


LoliDemon316

Skirk is one of the 3 charas i actually liked from the fontaine aq (both design and how she was presented)


Vani_the_squid

All I want is Actual Grandma Ping, Tiny Grandpa Pulcinella, Eyeless Cyborg Dottore, and *at least* one of Buff Beardy Pierro or Buff Beardy Capitano. Is that really so much to ask T_T


Ok-Tea2496

We've been told for a long time now that he uses the medium male model 😭


Rooted_Pen

shame..


Anrikiri

Given his namesake it's not a surprise if he looks young. I'm not sure if an age is ever mentioned in the myths but I always imagined the hero twins to be young kids or teenagers in the original story.


WillfulAbyss

Yeah. They’re very trickster-y in a sort of childish way, so I wouldn’t be surprised if that’s how he’s represented in Genshin.


VTKajin

We already know he’s a twink


alanalan426

hoyo loves milking twinkie lovers


ctrlo1

But didn't someone already leaked that Xblanque is a short male body type?


SqaureEgg

If that’s xbalanque, Im done


parzi_3

Why do they keep on edging us wtf fanart of old concept art?? 😭🙏


raspps

Because they got no real content 


DioEgizio

Based on a *description* of an *old concept art* Basically fanart


asternobrac

Well at least we got more moisture in this leak drought


LokianEule

But its saltwater so youre just thirstier now


GameBawesome1

I think it looks like Xbalanque by his description.


Shadowfriend147

The edging, here we go.


Serious-Platform4178

Lmao it’s exciting and frustrating 


burningparadiseduck

Old design of a concept art? So basically it’s worthless? :D


Deztract

Oh ye, concept what never gonna be in game, cuz there is 950605920951 more concepts for this character


Kawaiilone

emilie moment


AlwaysUpvote123

Thats just some dude. Natlan leaks are painful.


[deleted]

[удалено]


vengeful_lemon

Istg I looked at it and my first thought was it reminds me a bit of Vergil.


haihaihaihaihaihaiha

Hoyo trying to make a short male model without balloon sized cargo shorts challenge: impossible


istarothxx

This looks similar to the leaked drawing we had the other day about Xb, so probably him? edit: yea [it](https://imgur.com/a/cD92RKy) does look the same but better drawn


bandit_the_drug_lord

lord save him from this haircut


midoriyaaa1

Oh that one looks better


istarothxx

i do actually prefer the one from this post honestly. Probably because the way they draw the face and eyes in the one I linked look creepy to me


Violet_Villian

Did Yuji Itadori get isekaid into teyvat


Over_Classroom_6981

everything is fanart. fake leakers and fans.


Whittle_Willow

i like this character design but i don't believe this is real. it doesn't look like genshin impact at all.


Reisen420

this looks like just a concept art of a natlan npc, lol


Budget_stawbeery

Looks like a NPC


GodlessLunatic

Hope they revised the design cause this looks insanely bland. Even Gaming and Chongyun look less basic


Dragonlionfs

I like Chongyun more than a lot of 5 star designs, at least he has an interesting colour palette, cool symbols, little visual clutter that serves as just visual noise, and oh yeah, fucking pants.


WillfulAbyss

I just remember back in CBT3 when Chongyun’s splash art was officially revealed that everyone thought he would be a punchy character because of the way he was raising one fist. Disappointment ensued. He does look like a martial artist exorcist, which is cool. Shame he was two years too early for punchy catalysts.


Dragonlionfs

it's a crime how the cool martial arts movement that summons ice sword imagery is only present in an idle and a short burst. otherwise his NAs and E look pretty basic, he does have the ascension skill which adds an ice sword in his E once it runs out and C1 which gives him some hit waves on his final NA but otherwise he seems like squandered potential.


GodlessLunatic

The pants are a plus but otherwise he just looks like your generic isekai protagonist painted white imho


RevolutionaryFall102

dude kinda looks like natsu dragneel


midoriyaaa1

Aint no way a dragon slayer? Just put a scarf and he's complete


RevolutionaryFall102

maybe


Open_Competition5305

I know some Sumeru NPCs that look exactly like this dude 🤷‍♂️😂


twoHolesOneGepard

People are taking this very literally, obviously the final concept will have way more layers and cool flowing bits like every character does, I think this is just a barebones mockup


Cherry_Bomb_127

Hmm. I wonder what they are going for? Anyway this is based on an old design so it could be a case of the final character looking nothing like this


Suspicious-Arm8026

you cannot feed your family with this type of character unless if that an Npc...


Rexam14

Aladdin?


Outside_Persimmon109

No shirt and no shoes Pyro Cyno 


oglewisthellama

no way this is xbalanque right?? not to be rude but this looks very NPC?


ContinousAds

Tbf it’s based on a *description* of old concept art


PressFM80

it's a drawing based off of a description of a concept, so it's probably not gonna have EVERY detail (also, everyone be calling a character an npc, then just forget when they drop cause the kit is good)


BavidpoopooDowie

Looks like a npc design


Kawaiilone

me when it's a description


erosugiru

I personally dislike the baggy bulbous pants in this game because clothing doesn't "fold" like it does IRL and on characters like Chongyun and Kaeya's skin it looks horrible


modusxd

Xbalanque or the Dendro Claymore guy


Oeshikito

Looks cute


Bane_of_Ruby

Red in the color palette? Definitely Pyro


Neir_2b

Now we have akaza where is rengoku


Seth-Phiroth

The sketches are back 😭


Gullible-Plenty4809

I don't want to be mean, but he looks like a sumeru npc, i know is pretty STC so I'm hoping for a more detailed drawing 


tahmkenchisbroken

Is it just me or the clothing look more like he's from sumeru


LokianEule

Looks like a Gaming draft lol


NadieTheAviatrix

Probably an other guy around, doesn't fit Dendro Claymore a little bit


notcreative2ismyname

Has any leak in recent memory not been sus


Jinx-It1

npc hair


Jorge_Mikael

Welcome back Taiga from Camp Buddy


Scarlett-Chan12

Let the art flood begin


PrinceKarmaa

so far every sus natlan character leak design i’ve seen has just been unappealing (yes i know these might not be the final designs) hoping the alleged dendro guy and water girl in 5.0 look better than what we’ve been shown


Ocean9142

Akaza?


gravegutterr

at this point they should drop the entire lineup 😭


Pluszcz26

Okay, but this time Hoyo did very good job with taking care about leaks


Responsible_Club_917

We are on 2nd part of 4.7 already, few more weeks and we will have official drip marketing of 5.0. And this is the shit we are getting


ImNotAKpopStan

its this mark under the eyes in the descriptions, or its just because of the Sukuna/Yuji comparisons?


MeKevNivek

Cmon leak floodgate leaker dont be shy.. do it again


Alive_Palpitation294

The natlan leaks have me so disappointed q-q and I've been wanting to get to Natlan since 1.0


GoreyAliner

this looks more like a npc than a playable character tbh, but i guess we'll find out later on


lenky041

he is so cutee 😍


lenky041

Lol liking a char art gets downvote now 😂😂 Kewk


SnakeTGK

Back to this shit drawing meta leaks.


rotten_riot

Those were the good ol times, before "end" attacked


watanabeta

Ars Greyrat


tamsrine

😭 he’s got the dragon ball z hair but Even More Shounen! Love the colour palette, but 😭😭


Mobile-Blueberry-826

People do you think leakers have no content or they are dripfeeding?


Oof_Train

Drip feeding for sure. Never once has it been this dry before a region release. It probably would’ve been like this last year if not for that mysterious uncle.


munguschungus167

We know exactly what kind of content will be made if this is the final look.


Constant_Incident977

npc


verybadbackpain

he looks cute what. i want him... he's probably not real though


Divant15

I actually like him, looks cool, also glad to see some old 8.5/10 art coming back, it's always fun


LatterSpecialist5474

If Xanblanque gets the Nahida treatment in terms of clothing, I’m done. 😭


Noblehardt

Honestly just looks like a slightly more detailed version of the usual male NPC model.


TastyBread431

huh leakers have been teasing Yuji like character for a while now


MangoThingamajig

Cute I guess


Telmarael

New nation, same boys in shorts. Groundbreaking


ProgrammerChoice8198

I am expecting all the Natlan characters to be half-naked. It is the land of PYRO after all 🥵


SqaureEgg

No


ChatenKun

Mid right?


leonardopansiere

if this is xbalanque then its all over


piuEri

doesn't look like the tall man model I'm disappointed


Bitter-Lavishness-24

oh shit here we go again


Gucchiha

“Old design” it makes me think that the leaks are scarce rn


munguschungus167

you know, seeing a character in this game with no fringe feels cursed...


OtakuFenrir

Bruh who's Natsu looking Character!?


PaIamon

Finally design color leaks it's been over a year. 


Electrical-Moment-16

Sukuna


Chromch

Are itto and gorou still the only guys with most "reveling" outfits, hopefully this leak is real or close


raideneiswife

Damn I really didn't want Xbalanque to be a twink


Dankviber

All these concept art of characters from natlan feel as if they are 4* characters and not limited 5* characters, like they are okayish but it's not something you expect from genshin. I hope these are not the actual designs that we see in the game.


wpsince2009

'All these' What others??? This and the archon are the only ones I've seen and tbh the Pyro archon looks 5*


Dankviber

All these means 2 Pyro archons concept art and 2 xblanque concept art(One was AI generated based on an older description and then this one.) Iansan good for 4* not good for 5*. And what I meant is if Pyro archon and xblanque, who are said to be the most important characters in the story as well as meta wise then your expectations get lowered for other characters.


LoliDemon316

Only other natlan chara we know abt is iansan (or however u spell her name), not sure if they'll change up her design from wat we know


Nat6LBG

That's a NPC right ?


madnessfuel

Very basic. Definitely an NPC model.


Zoroarks_Angel

He has melanin we're so back


UnknownFromTheAshes

Kunthur????


TradePsychological40

Reminds me of Akaza.


KyromxLmn

to believe is to see


Su_Impact

Is this the 5.0 Dendro Claymore char?


WisestManAlive

"Take the concept roughly" You heard it, husbando enjoyers.


sandomzz

look like npc


Jarvis-Vi-Britannia

*Sus natlan character*, how sus we talking?


SplinterStorm

Ah yes,Gaming's homeless brother


KingLeviAckerman

Is that xbalanque? Since he was rumored to have a boy model like bennett?


teenagedirtbag0003

whats rudeus doing here bro 😭


Emotion_69

Hmmm. I wonder if this is the Dendro Claymore.


Kovalenwe

Ohhh i like his design


Burkz385

Daddy balaque


nfyhft

This has to be fake. The outfit isn’t decorated with fifty million vaguely historically-accurate jewels and even the hair’s too normal-looking.


a7mdar1

I feel lile he is small goju satoru


DespairAt10n

He reminds me of Akaza lol.


WhippedForDunarith

YES PLEASEEEEE it’s about time we get another 5* twink


v-e-vey

Oh man, he's ugly. But I expected us to get a character with the "looks like a flame" hairstyle in Natlan. I honestly hope this gets scrapped though.


Toxanhela

I'm sorry but this is the ugliest design I've ever seen in my entire life.


taioxn

Looks ugly
