Unrelevant but another huge theme is "make choices u won't regret" which is re said ALOT (the story writers really want u to know that😂) and it was re said AGAIN in the recent live stream (for 1.4) during the story replay feature, because they said ths only rule is that U CANNOT make different decisions, and it's not that if u make differnct choice u can get differnt rewards, the developer really went out of there way to code and make sure that U CANNOT make different decisions in the replay cause if they didn't care, they would just cope and paste all of the coding, but they instead added to it, and that shows they REALLY care about this which makes the players know that this is important (also ik that they don't "love the game and care about it so much", it's a gacha game they only care about money when u make it, they do stuff like this to keep discussion about there game to keep it relevant, and when a game is relevant u attract new players, and what do new players do....spend MONEY💵💵💵)

That's what I did, worth the time saved and I don't get to see any more of that btch

There is actually another potential proof for this! If you decide to stay on Herta's ship instead of joining the express, you get a cutscene that explaines what happened to the members of the express, a story in which they eventually fade away. Perhaps that was what was meant to happen, and we broke that by joining the Express

The Messenger already explained this to the MC when you first met her. She mentioned they can just go unnoticed but she showed herself to MC bc MC's memories are important. They wanted to make copies of MC's lost memories in the Forgotten Hall. Like she said it, Forgotten hall is to "rekindle your lost memories" which is your battles. It's already in the battles even before you met her probably for gameplay's sake (like how MC is Destruction already even before Nanook gazed upon him/her). Or just maybe bc they were copying your memories without permission lol. I like your theory but I think the cracked effect is just the symbolism of memory fragments being unraveled and being seen piece by piece; the whole battle being a whole memory(mirror/glass/crystal/ice).

​@@Maevix3142I would have thought so myself, but I already saw this effect in Honkai Impact 3rd, when Otto Apocalypse sacrificed his life to create another possible timeline for Kallen, in "Thus spoke Apocalypse." animated shorts. Now I have more questions than answers 😢 And the fact that Otto's partner (void archive) after this in HSR with Welt made me scarry about their role in this (Foreign for them) universe.

This actually makes a load of sense! It's almost as if the Trailblazer is an unexpected anomaly in the universe that Fuli hadn't archived. So maybe the trailblazers very existence and actions are breaking the universe and changing predetermined events. Also, interesting to note is that battles don't have the broken glass/ice screen in the simulated universe...since it's not reality but a simulation. Very plausible indeed! 🤓

This makes a lot sense when you take into account that MC was able to see Fuli's Messenger in the Express. With Kafka's Companion Quest, if you ask her if the fate is set into stone the true answer is No. Also in Clara's companion mission, Svarog insist that you make the final decision because the MC is the 'Variable' which also seems to be hinting towards it.

@@Maevix3142I personally think it’s because of the stelleron; An entity that is no longer considered to be mortal, something on the plane of something *else* off of the high resonance with just about every spectrum (heliobi, the paths, the harmony, the other stelleron’s and the fricking trash cans.) they have a weird resonance with everything, and for that reason, combined with the game recording all your achievements and stats (with some web-events being based on those facts.) their is a high chance that Trailblazer is changing fate, which if we assuming is due to the stelleron, explains the endings we’ve gotten. (From a meta perspective, it would also make sense: We control the trailblazer, and by allowing them to go back to their original destiny; not boarding the Train, refusing to help aventurine, etc. their story would’ve ended, since that’s the most logical choice, and being an amnesiac and not knowing what to do, that’s what most would’ve done, but we didn’t, the stelleron and us, the player didn’t allow that to happen, that’s why the screen cracks. *where going down the path that they wouldn’t have gone down.* We’re Blazing a new trail for them and everyone else to follow. Or that’s what I think.)

Well, I DO believe the cracks seem to only happen in vital moments, there may be another reason why they happen than the whole game being one flashback sequence. Hoyo reused that exact screen crack animation for the Captainverse storyline in HI3rd, at I think that moment of Sirin fighting against fate of the eternal cycle magical girls are fated to defeat the dark lord, only to become the next dark lord to replace them. Sirin was fighting against the fate of magical girls as a whole. In Star Rail, those screen cracks are there also for moments of fighting against fate. Perhaps the "cracks" on the screen, symbolizing the Trailblazer fighting against fate by "cracking" the "wall" blocking him/her from changing fate itself. I dunno, take everything I say here with a grain of salt, I'm very sleepy and so, my senses are dulled from sleepiness. I may have made mistakes I haven't found out of in this comment.

Only found the vid now, but feels similar to the MC of Kingdoms of Amalur - The Fateless One. The Trailblazer seems to be in a similar vein with their unique birth and the stellaron inside them. I do find it interesting that you follow the path of the Trailblaze whilst riding a train, a vehicle than can only go where the tracks lead it, and most likely where someone has been before, since someone had to build the tracks.

@Maevix3142

4 ай бұрын

I've always been curious about that, I seem to recall (might be wrong) that the tracks were laid by Akivili himself and that the nameless in present day just follow those same tracks in which case Akivili is the one that connected a majority of the universe which again if i recall correctly he was credited for. However if it wasnt akivili, I wonder whether its something that has always existed or its a symbolism for following a predefined/predestined path.

I think the crack effect is indicative of the trail blazer destroying the fate set in stone. The overall theme seems to be "everything is doomed, and there's no stopping it". But the TB is essentially a kink in that "end". Their existence and subsequent journey is going to break the fate of everything ending, opening up a new unexplored future of possibilities to trail blaze. This is, far as I know, actually somewhat confirmed if consider the symbolism of the express and the effect your choice of going with it or not has in the beginning of the game. If you think of normal trains, their start and finish is pretty much set thanks to the tracks. But the express doesn't have one, so to speak, and is kinda boundless. Now, if you refuse to join the express, it gets annihilated at some point, cementing the fact that it can't avoid the fate all is doomed. But if you join, your decision and presence alters that fate, changing the future from one that is doomed to one that is free and open. Those concept keeps repeating. Our presence saves the doomed world of Belebog. As does it save the xianxio (however its spelled). It is likely also going to be thr case our presence will save Penacony from destruction (and probably a few characters too). Our presence upsets the doomed course of these places, giving them open brighter futures. So those cracks in the game is us breaking the pre ordained fate for an open one free of descrtuction. Our fights and encounters are altering the course of the universe, one interaction at a time.

I like that one theory in the reddit sometime ago that Honkai star rails story progression is like that one music video that relates to dementia

Another thing is that when Seele destroys the bullet shot at Bronya, there seems to be a similar crack screen effect, which implies a few things. a) Seele wasn't meant to protect Bronya, thus causing a crack. b) Seele wasn't meant to meet Bronya (either at this specific time or at all) and form their relationship so early (or at all). and my personal favorite: c) Time keeps readjusting to all the changes we make, to prevent Fuli from full-on shattering to death. The bullet was meant to kill Bronya (or she was meant to die around this time) since it didn't crack immediately after firing it, and Seele's unexpected protection caused a crack instead. The last one's definitely a little shaky, but it gives a bit of an explanation and expands upon this theory a bit more than just extra evidence. Of course, it could just be that cracks in reality happen when fighting, but considering this is Honkai, they'd give an explanation like they did with the Caverns, Echoes, and etc.

This gives me the Multiverse/timeline theory, where if nothing from the outside intervenes, the fate and destiny can't be changed, but Kafka,SW and the other stellaron hunters mostlikely have outside information that cause a major change to happen. Elio in the original timeline was never supposed to succeed at creating a stellaron vessel (mostlikely). Welt Yang was NEVER supposed to cross time line between universes and board the Astral express. (since he indeed is from a another universe) The idea of fate and destiny being inevitable exists only in a vaccum of a single universe. for the theory of Aeon of rememberance being affect by changes it would mean fate and destiny are only bound to their universe and only when taken on a multiuniversal scale it can change. The trailblazer themselves are a anomaly (similarly to how descenders in genshin are considered anomalies) and that is what allows changes to the future.

Thinking about it, in SU the path resonance of the Remembrance is crack that looks like glass that than explodes, but a thing that bugs me is that preservation also has the same thing, literally the same animation but recolored. Every path has a different animation but only these 2 are similar, it's just too suspicious to randomly be the same. I guess they kinda align both trying to "preserve" everything but in different ways, but it doesn't make sense that Qlipoth the Preservation, a giant golem with a hammer, has glass cracking as its animation, it's just too suspiscious

@aleste they could have easily done a different animation than a recolored version of Remembrance, they are the only animations to be similar out of the 8 paths, they are all different except these 2: Hunt has arrows, Destruction has a rock from the ground explode, Abundance heals and grass grows, Propagation has a swarm buffing a character, Elation has rainbow lights, Nihility has a strange black hole animation, Remembrance has glass shattering, Destruction has the fricking same as Remembrance but orange/yellow. It's the same from the sound to the visuals, and idk how many earthquakes sound just like a glass window being shattered, to me usually they sound like rocks falling

it could also be cracked because these characters shouldn`t go there own way normaly they only go on there own path because the mc is there with the others. remember without the mc the other characters didn`t had the chance too get on there own missions, because they had other things too do or in the main squad from the start.

Or the cracks means you are removing the info from the archive to watch it, like removing the cd from the case.

i like that very much because in most games and storys the main character is the one that can change fate, all the other are not able too do so because they are in that world from the start have there own lifes there. and it makes sence, when you play other characters story lines in the game without the mc there from the start, it is cracked also it means that they are not suposed too be on there own missions normaly. so that the mc is there is the reason fate changed because he shouldn`t be there from the start, his prensence alone changes the fate of others around him. it is also a comon theme in genshin that the mc is the one that changes fate not only for himself but for the other characters as well. and honkai star rail seem too have it too.

i can believe this theory as at the start of phase 2 of the Cocolia boss fight when she does that big attack the lyrics QUITE LITERALLY say "YOU MADE A CHOICE, GO FIGHT AGAINST YOUR FATE!!!!", so yeah, i accept this theory as a strong possibility

There is a canonical scene that proves that these cracks in each scene are creating a new branch on the imaginary tree. When Otto reaches the Imaginary tree and creates infinite possibilities in reality for Kallen, a similar orb forms around her and cracks, just like it does in HSR.

might be pausible, might be bullshit, but i believe in this theory. It just makes too much sense with Elios and Kafkas roles in the story, trying to make a future where the universe lives Elio might be someone that saw/survived the destruction of the previous universe and is trying to change the fate of it, this game has yet to go into samsaras(apart from the aeons trailer)/ Time loops/ cycles, but we are bound to go in that direction since this is a hoyo game and it is one of their lore staples

Because so far, everything about Welt fits the chronology of APHO (the game mode in Honkai Impact where this version of Welt is originally from). So, although the theory is plausible, Welt's existence is enough to break it. In any case, this is the problem with Welt's existence in HST. I see a lot of theories about HSR's story, which ends up getting debunked due to Welt. Since the fact that Welt is in HSR universe is proof that the HSR universe is within the boundaries of rules that exist in Honkai Impact 3rd. These "rules" includes how the Imaginary Tree, the Sea of Quanta, and Honkai operates. Since APHO just ended up being confirmed to be connected to Honkai Impact's main story, that then adds a lot more of complicated stuff.

Okay yeah I really like this idea whether it plays out or not. Great job here!

Hsr have high possibility was a bubble universe, because like fuli say this universe already destroyed and her job was to collected piece of universe. She want to make a multi bubble universe become one again. Also, sometimes i kinda imagine why everyone know about finallity who will exist in end of universe. I think the reason about it because finallity was the one who destroye hsr universe, because it was who can control fate it was coocon of finallity.

Ok, I have a potential idea about the cracks. I believe the cracks that occur have something to do with the Path of Beauty … and with absolutely little to tiny information about Idrila the Beauty, this theory is up for change when we obtain more info on Idrila. The reason why I believe this in the first place, is because in the Data Banks screen, we can see some Universal Script in the background, encrypting them all reveals, “Traveler Guide”, “Fables About The Stars”, “Mr Nobody”, and lastly “Cosmos as a Mirror”. (There are smaller universal scripts around the background as well, they all say “Index”.) Of these Data Bank Hidden Messages, only two are of … mysterious meanings. Mr Nobody, and Cosmos As A Mirror, for the time being, let’s focus on the latter one, “Cosmos As A Mirror”. There is only one Aeon that relates to a Mirror, that being Idrila, and the Mirrors of Transcendence. When Idrila died, she shattered into pieces of mirrors, and scattered across the cosmos. … and this is mirror is able to manifest the holders concept of Beauty into reality. This leaves me with a theory that somehow the Path of Beauty is constantly effecting the cosmos as well, and that is why we have the screen crack, it isn’t from a story, it’s from the Monitor, a Mirror into the world (universe) of Honkai Star Rail. We see Sampo just about break the 4th Wall to us in a dream, and before speaking to us, he was speaking to a Monitor as well, very likely talking to his other Friends of Elation. This could suggest several things to us, about the Path of Beauty being as 4th Wall Breaking as the Path of Elation. After all, in the Simulated Universe, Aha basically found out about the Simulation instantly. Honestly, this hypes me up even more about the Path of Beauty, and it’s potential Mind Blowing Capabilities.

If I had to guess, Sampo definitely knows he's in a game, so does Silver Wolf, her ult lines are literally, "At this speed, too slow", and when you speed it up, "This is double speed". Plus she can hack reality, so maybe even the Punklord Hackers know it's a game, and have just taught them to hack Star Rail itself. And the last person I believe knows it's a game is Elio himself. Not only that, he can see the script, or maybe (and this might be stretching it), is the games creator. After all, he knows what every character is going to do, except the player character. Sure he tries to guide you to the Express through Kafka, but you can just refuse and the game ends.

Upon coming across your thoughts, I also believe that Idrila play some part in this. Especially with the fact that idrila’s entire niche is based upon your values, beliefs, and ideas-all encased in beauty. Her faction, the Mirror holders possesses an item called the mirror of transcendence. The mirror does not reflect the material world but rather what you see through your eyes. We often recount them in the echos of war , the glass shatters every time. Not that they are delusions of some sort, the event itself exist, it’s just that it’s very much leaning into the idea that we’re are the protagonists and the idea of triumphing against all foes is the most beautiful.

you are on the right path to discover the true meaning of the story, im not going to spoil you but tell you a tip, you need a open mind both in game and in reality to go to the deepest lore because genshin, honkai impact 3 and HSR are connected, and the "cosmos as a mirror" is indeed a huge clue if you have played honkai impact 3 story until the final part 1 theres something wich is also a mirror

Me when it’s revealed that Terminus is actually just a Kevin alt: 🤯

with mihoyo story is about samsara,based on previous games. this is valid theory to me.

That's a cracked theory if I ever saw one.

Does this imply Elio, "Destiny's Slave" is somewhat related to Fuli?

Elio will reveal all as a possible Emanator of a Know it all.

I think this theory has some truth into it . I mean when the stellaron activated and nanook gaze at trailblazer during herta station, the trailblazer saw future scene.

Would also like to mention that this is literally a part of the chorus for Wildfire: "We've made a choice, go fight against your fate!"

The cracks are formed when RULES ARE MADED TO BE BROKEN! And when WE'VE MADE A CHOICE TO GO FIGHT AGAINST OUR FATE!

Interesting theory but Welt and Void archives being in hsr changes all the speculation, I don't think the manga for honkai alien space is finished and HI getting part 2 in 2024 might have links to Hsr's lore as HI will kind of get into space. It can sure be a "future event" being told as a game similar to apho but yeah in the end it's all speculation, also story already being finished kinda limits the things devs can do as a game being retold as they will be limiting themselves by "We have to show the end at some point, right ?", "what's the end ?" will become the main lore, they can instead keep going as long as they want with a good lore similar to HI, it's already a 7-8yrs old game at this point with part 2 coming out in 2024 xd.

hoyoverse and its love for stories prewriten or in a cicle being broken by the flaw of now having a protagonist in them

and wasn't it said that trailblazer will inevitably go against nanook and the stellaron hunters are kinda preparing us for it via best possible paths foreseen by elio? nanook being the aeon of destructioonn idkk

I also have my very own theory! But this theory is at the end of the game storyline, here's my theory: When we fight the Aeon of Destruction, Nanook the MC will be self destructing using the Stellaron inside him, The reason why I think this will happen is because Herta said that the MC is like a living time bomb that can explode at any time, So I believe at the end of the storyline I think that the MC would sacrifice himself by using the Stellaron inside him to defeat Nanook, Why do I think a Stellaron could defeat Nanook? It is because the Aeon of Trailblaze, Akivili perished by an Stellaron, So I believe a Stellaron could defeat Nanook. That's my theory! Though it may not make sense but hey, Theories are just predictions

The only thing that might crack this theory(heh) is the intro, unless the stellaron hunters breaking into hertas station at that point was also some serious deviation from the original timeline(wich, could be the case, elios script might take existing events into acount to change fate into favorable outcomes that changes the destiny the universe is suposed to move towards.)

please do a video about Fu Xuan back story ❤

Like like the Mc says himself RULES ARE MEANT TO BE BROKEN

I think in Honkai if I remembered correctly, Aponia says the same thing about fate is already decided saying Mei will die, yet like Elysia said that fate may have been decided but you can change how things flows... or something like that. That story about Mei will die yet she still lives on, and that story about a doctor will die due to something killing her(forgot the detail) yet she change it by killing herself, tho might be the same results the flow still changes. Tldr Honkai story is confusing yet beautiful at the same time xD

Completely unrelated But i think us the player is somehow involved in this For kafka and mere mortals, our choices are just a matter of great will, a path we chose from the our genuine soul But for Aeons like Fuli or Terminus, there may be a certain pattern they had noticed, moreover on the choices Even with the thousands of possibilities, most commonly given to us is only 2 choices in dialogue, and to only have 2 possibilities of happening, im sure the Aeons are curious of why it is like that Especially when we could literally just not join the astral express

Im kinda curious about that especially given that sampo scene at the end of the belobog campaign. Maybe the aeons are even aware this is all a game, i mean Aha knew it was in the simulated universe why not self awareness to involve the 4th wall. It also wouldnt be surprising if the aeons knew but didnt care, i mean most of them are just too hyperfocused on their own paths.

@@Maevix3142 except for Nous tho, he would probably get interested in our existence Especially on how and why we are interacting with their universe in the first place There's also that theory of Akivili being the traveller twins from Genshin Bc if thats the case, it reinforces our involvement in the story too, since in this sense what happened to star rail and the hoyoverse in all it's glory is bc of us in someway That's how the beings in the verse see us, they haven't gotten the third party involved, their overall creator, Mihoyo themselfs And don't even mention the various times Star rail characters has said the portion of the games name Even in Genshin, players are finding mihoyo logos in the map of Teyvat The moment the game starts to mess with our game controls is the starting point of how we are involved And I have only seen a hint of this of some sort Most notably on Genshin where our choice of dialogue got manipulated in the story quest And I don't know if it's me, but at random times in Star rail, the dialogue tends to switch over to a dialogue choice even when I chose the opposite That happened more than once and I have never experienced it before in Genshin so that's another suspicious thing

It is possible story has ended but retelling of the story from different people that is the player. Like no one would notice how player will fail the game or quest and restarted and take another path. As well the secrets ending of the first station that MC didn't join the star rail.

I don't Fuli understand. You dropped a Qiloth of knowledge here.

As we progress in the story of Belobog we understand that a Stellaron has its own consciousness and all Stellaron are known to be the destruction of one's planet Yet the MC which is the also a Stellaron that's place in a prototype body acts nothing like the Stellaron from belobog?
