The Story: I really recommend you to watch some actual lore explanation video before starting with the game, because it will only get more confusing as time goes on. But basically, Kiana, a valkyrie of Schicksal (also our main protagonist for Part 1), was dispatched to stop a battleship named Selene, which is crashing towards the city of Sapphire. There, she joined with her best friend Raiden Mei to infiltrated and halted the Selene. Because of the challenging situation, Mei activated her inner 3rd Herrscher power to fight againist Honkai Beast (I know I just bring "herrscher" and "honkai" out of nowhere, but that's why you need a basic understanding of the lore. Honkai is an energy that produces very dangerous radiation, which turns people with low honkaiadaptibility to Zombies and Honkai beasts. The term "herrscher" got milked a lot, and just know they are "very powerful bad girls" for now). With the help of Bronya another of their friends they hacked the battleship, but without Bronya brain chip malfuntioning and a mysterious mail sent directly for Kiana.

My personal comment: This chapter is short, but trust me when I say, the later chapters will probably took an hour of footage. Now, I haven't verify my Google account yet, so I can't make thumbnails but more importantly, I can't upload a video longer than 15 minutes (stupid youtube). So when I indeed make a chapter all dialogues and cutscenes video in the future, I might split them into different parts. Also, I really tried to optimize the time of the video. (Pretty much) All combat sections? Cut. Unnecessary midcombat dialogues? Cut. Stupid long cutscenes? Sped up (by 1.2 times btw). All dialogues? Give you barely half a second to read. Why though? Yeah I don't really want to make people watch 30 minutes or 5 hours of really boring Honkai Impact 3rd gameplay. I play Honkai Impact 3rd for the LORE, not the GAMEPLAY. Who clicks on a walkthough video just to watch the entire 2 hour video??? So my goal with the video, is to help you reduced the time wasted on a really complex story developed by Mihoyo. Also, minor tip, I don't recommend you to watch this video. As far as I'm concerned, Chapter 18+, EXChapters and the final chapter of all the story arcs have the most lore for you. Finally, I will (probably) do all of them from chapter 1 to chapter 35 (the entirity of Part 1), and I hope I can finished it by a month.
