The End of an Era: Saying Goodbye to Corn Burgers
Genshin Impact players around the world are breathing a collective sigh of relief—the infamous “Corn Burger” quest is finally over. What began as a simple daily commission in Fontaine evolved into one of the game’s most meme-worthy storylines, testing players’ patience while becoming an unlikely community bonding experience.
How a Simple Quest Became a Phenomenon
The quest, which involved repeatedly helping an NPC named Ludivine with her corn burger stall, stretched across multiple updates. Players found themselves:
- Making countless corn burgers
- Listening to the same dialogue on loop
- Watching Ludivine’s business fail spectacularly each time
What made it memorable wasn’t the gameplay, but how it highlighted HoYoverse’s talent for turning mundane activities into shared community experiences. The quest’s repetitive nature spawned countless memes, with players joking about being trapped in “corn burger purgatory.”
I know Paimon, I know… its finally over…. Corn Burger won’t haunt you anymore.

Some admitted they’d miss the ridiculous routine, while others celebrated by posting creative corn burger “farewell parties” using in-game photo mode. The quest’s absurd longevity had somehow made it endearing.
