So, I got into this thing called “drip marketing” for Honkai: Star Rail 2.5. Never heard of it before, but it sounded interesting. I started digging around, trying to figure out what it was all about. Turns out, it’s a way they release info about new characters coming to the game. They did one for this character called “Sunday,” and apparently, he’s super popular now, even more than some other dude named DHIL. Who knew?
Then I found out that they were doing another round of this drip marketing thing for version 2.5. I saw some names popping up – Feixiao and Lingsha. Some people were saying they were gonna be these “5-star” characters. I don’t really get what that means, but it sounds important.
I started lurking around in some forums and saw people talking about this stuff. There was a post about Feixiao and Lingsha, and someone mentioned they were gonna be part of the Hunt and Abundance, with Wind and Fire elements. I guess that’s how they fight or something. I learned a lot from reading others’ posts.
I also read that this whole drip marketing thing is kind of like a product launch. They do it to get people hyped up about new stuff. It’s kind of clever, I guess. Make people wait and get excited, instead of just dumping everything at once.
I even found this post from someone called “Firefly Lover” who seemed to know a lot about this stuff. They were talking about Feixiao and Lingsha too, so it felt like I was getting closer to understanding.
I kept an eye out, and sure enough, they officially announced Feixiao and Lingsha as new characters. There’s a game community called HoYoLAB, and that is where I first saw this news. It felt good to finally see it confirmed after all that searching. It is not easy to be honest.
One thing’s for sure, this whole drip marketing thing is a trip. It’s like a little adventure, trying to piece together all the clues and figure out what’s coming next. I’m still not sure I fully understand everything, but I’m definitely more interested in Honkai: Star Rail now. Maybe I’ll even start playing it. Who knows, maybe I’ll become a 5-star player myself someday. Haha, just kidding.
Here’s a quick rundown of what I did:
- Started researching drip marketing for Honkai: Star Rail 2.5.
- Found out about Sunday’s popularity.
- Saw mentions of Feixiao and Lingsha as potential new characters.
- Read forum posts and discussions about them.
- Learned that drip marketing is like a product launch.
- Followed a post from “Firefly Lover” about the new characters.
- Saw the official announcement of Feixiao and Lingsha.
- Felt a sense of accomplishment after all the searching.
- Got more interested in the game and might start playing.
It was a wild ride, but I definitely learned a lot along the way. Maybe this drip marketing thing isn’t so bad after all.
