Western Cultural Appropriation : Hoyo sleeps
China Neuvilette helicopter laser nerf to rollback : Hoyo wakes up to REAL SHIT
8 dollars to write to petition, what a scam
People think black characters equals culture representation.
That is Ridiculous😮💨
these English VA's are idiots you basically not going get more work from Mihoyo again
China already hates Uighurs, it should mean something lmao
Goes both ways ig. People can for sure call it out and have that right to be upset, just as people have the right to not give a shit. If the game's good and the characters are good, then everything is great. I don't even play genshin, but there are definitely more important things to get uppity about
That, and it's not like anyone will risk their job over this sort of thing, not these days, so kid of indeed sounds like white noise. But, go ahead and make your voice and keyboard heard, people. It all adds up to what your favorite entertainment providers will decide in the end; white noise will eventually get too grating to bear, eventually.
These are the same people that will tell you to grow up if a white character gets black washed. So I might have been on their side but I am finding it very hard to care.
Wait, They're right. Minorities are allowed to speak up for their desires. Hoyo is actually also allowed to ignore them though.
When it’s a white historical character or culture it’s ok to make them black or a minority. Now that the shoes on the other foot, they don’t like it. Funny that
My question is why do the people saying “is just a game” care about this so much because how would this effect them in any if it’s just a game
A bit biased only reading tweets in favor of the boycott. There hundred of tweets with thousands of likes saying that characters should be left the way they are, even from Latinos communities. Wonder why he isn't reading those and only focusing on the woke culture tweets. Liberal agenda at its finest. Criticizing Hoyo for their perfectly fine character designs, but then they go and defend stuff like black Juliet and black mermaid in movies and black samurai in AC, like that isn't cultural appropriation.
meanwhile in genshin latinoamerican communities on facebook (latinos use facebook barely touch twitter): "why are americans crying about skin color again why wont they stfu about skin color on any game, anyway mavuika is hot damn!" "my axolotl waifu citlali", this resumes the entire thing, americans crying about something doesnt concern them and many of them wanting to change characters based on LA into black people so even them are misrepresenting them lmao i saw a few kinich with dreadlocks and tattoos, kinich is even depicted as white and blonde in artworks here lmao, he is from fucking mexico.
The fact people actually care about this is crazy. Its a gacha made by a Chinese company. They are not here to pander to thirteen and twenty-year-olds on twitter who get mad when someone says their hsr character is not lgbtq. They are going to make a game that would succeed in their country and would go with what the people in their country would like to see ( they make about the same and often more money from china alone compared to the rest of the world, so they are not going to change anything because of 50k twitter users.)
why is love and deepspace trending in your twitter? 🌈
YouTube is the only place where you can say “colorism is actually bad” and people get mad at you
How many time did they try to bcoycott genshin lmao? They deserve to be ignored at this point.
people that complain don’t actually play the game, they are just obsessed with hating it.
Imagine complaining – no, worse – getting actually emotionally distressed about a non-problem like this.
Edit: I do actually understand the concern. It is a reasonable complaint. BUT the level of emotional investment people have in this is indicative of that they are view themselves as victims, or are signaling they see others as victims.
its a game 🤯
Its crazy how far some people go to defend hoyo for this. God forbid we get dark skinned characters in a region partly inspired by africa. 😂
I watched this video and still don't really understand what's going on.
Holy shit the comments, is this mrpokke channel or asmon's😅
Those clowns complain about whitewashing, meanwhile they shamelessly blackwash all of the tan Latino-inspired characters
Heck them, they're more racist than the ghosts they cry about all day
Petitions don't mean shit. Just stop playing and stop buying their products. And as soon as their market value drops just a few pips they will be bending over backwards to sideways and back.
this gives me the same vibes when vegans try to stop mcdonalds from selling burgers, I couldn't care less as a latino myself bc it's a free game after all
These guys are all screaming into a void. They are crazy if they think hoyo is going to listen to global players.😂
I think we just need to tell them that we need more black people and don't bring culture to this cuz after all it's a game our culture is irrelevant to the game
minorities~
Well, the truth is chinese media is extremely racist, they've censored dark skin in the past, none of the games coming from China have dark skinned characters, unless they're the bad guys of course. This is not about black people, even sumeru was like this too, and most indians are brown or darker. Trying to boycott hoyo is stupid, this is a problem within chinese culture, been like this for thousands of years lmao.
This is not an argument, just my question. I don't understand why hoyo didn't want to make more playable tanned/dark skined characters? But thay did that to ncps and enemies without any problems tho. Is there's any reason? I've seen people said hoyo is racist(cuz not much tanned/dark skin playable, but thay did that for the enemies so we can beat them up), some said that since hoyo is the Chinese company and all of the people are light skin, there's no need for them to make tanned/dark skin characters. But i saw people also argue if they want to make something that inspire dark skin culture, ethnic or race they should include that or else just make game that only focus on chinese culture so thay can make all the characters light skin. I think hoyo feels like that dark skin will sell less than the light skin one in China🤔 kinda like how they give more female than male playable since female characters will sell more than male, which is sad and real. I think even people make surveys, boycott or complaints about the skin colour, hoyo still will not do anything (since this issue also a problem way back then, and it resurface due to natlan culture inspired). Unless CN community complaints about it, then hoyo might do something. If not nothing will change. Hoyo didn't care at all about the criticism from global. They only care about the CN community. Yeah so idk what's happening rn, let's wait for V5.0.
Lol 50k over 60m. Goodluck with that
People whining over something was not real is stupidity.
Russia doesn’t care, we just wait Snezhnaya with Italian names
38k donuts
You said nothing of value in this vid my man.
