Genshin is not just a game, it's already a culture. The characters, the lore, the scenery, music, everything is just amazing.

[Pudding]

The genshin impact music is amazing. The impact the music has is obviously no joke, but the fact that we get a behind the scenes is inspiring.

I genuinely hope Genshin Impact's music eventually has the opportunity to be played in a live orchestra.

For context, the Fibonacci sequence incorporates numbers that occur naturally in nature, like "the number of petals in a flower or the number of spirals on a sunflower". (A. Benjamin, TED)
Yu-peng Cheng is on another level when he's composing music that evolves with the story and the world of the game.

I remember seeing someone post online how a track from Sumeru followed the Fibonacci sequence, I can't believe they confirmed it on this video!

[grandmides]

Some don't understand the huge amount of work is put into this game, these type of videos can make them appreciate the hard work everyone puts into this masterpiece

[potatogirl]

I’m so blown away every single time by all the hard work and effort put into HoYo-Mix’s music from around the world. It’s really quite inspiring to me, as someone who is just doing their best in life, and just gives me so much enjoyment and enrichment every chance I get to partake in these musical masterpieces. To every single person involved, THANK YOU.

You may not realize but the editing of this video is also on another level, notice how they carefully pick each clip that suits the narration but also in sync with the music played
