It's like those anime where they do a whole recap of the character's life story up to this point and say things like "we'll be friends forever" you know that that character's done. Anyway I had long predicted that Dottore was after the power of the moons and the power of Rerir and that we were not at the finish line just yet so something bad was going to happen to lead us into us beating the tar out of Dottore in the next update which is also when Columbina will become a playable character. This whole thing about her leaving for the moon and not knowing when or if she'll ever come back is drama for drama's sake. The ending of the story is going to have her find some kind of anchor to the world so she can safely stay and be playable.
But the big takeaway, at least for me was the stickers on people's faces, the custom headgear and the little balloon we could take with us. As soon as I realized I could do that, I accessorized for the rest of the section. Now why this is big imo is that I'd been suggesting to miHoYo to give us common rarity accessories to mix into the common weapon drops we've been getting this whole time. Those weapons are garbage and nobody ever uses them. It's been over 5 years and we're still just getting that stuff. I'm sure players would really appreciate a change and since it's now shown there's no issue with adding accessories to the characters, there's no reason not to do it. Not that they will but now there's really no excuse not to.
