It may have been called censorship and in many ways looked like censorship but at this point can we really still call it that? Genshin Impact has not slowed down with revealing characters much worse off than the targets for these changes over a year ago.

You sound like you’re conforming to the “genshin community” while simultaneously trash talking it.
Layla’s booty is censored compared to someone like Barbara. Dehya supposedly had her booty censored. The new outfits for characters like Jean, Amber suck because the shading was removed; it just looks unnatural from a physics point of view. Like there should wrinkles and dark spots from lighting and such on clothing.
As a westerner if you're not familar with how the CCP works and how oppressive they are with their people, I can see why you'd start think this could be something else other than censorship. But this was a 100% censorship forced by government policies and threats. Hoyoverse literally moved their operations out of China because of CCP policies. Venti and xingqiu were on the verge of being changed as well
what's the first background song?
As a cn player I can confirm that this is a "soft" censorship but where this pressure came from is different this time.
Basically it was not due to some policies from government level but Genshin's players. In short some players were not very happy about Shenhe's OG design and… let's say it has something to do with feminism.
I think it kinda makes sense and I actually like some adjustments they have made, what hoyoverse did showed a certain level of understanding and I believe they reconsidered & refined their design philosophies which comforted it's own players and not a bad thing.
I think the new Amber skin is better and Mona's too
BENNET SKIN I BEG YOU HOYO!!!!!! he looks homeless
Genshin was forced by gov, and any moves from Chinese gov cannot be interpreted by logic but arbitrary bureaucratic decisions
Depressed barbara still hurts me. Shes not an "idol" to me anymore
ambers ass was also censored, it peeks out just a bit
Nuns should just look like nuns, stop sexualizing them like sickos.
I want them to keep "censoring" the characters, it just means more free skins for me
As a Christian having a slut walking around calling herself a Nun was really weird, glad they tuned down a little.
if memory serves isn’t Mona’s new outfit explained as her wearing something new to reflect her new life as a mondstat citizen.
I like Jean's redesign much better, she looks much more like a fighter and a leader and I actually even find her sexier and less basic with the high collar and free shoulders. Rosaria's redesign I prefer strongly as well, the hooker outfit and jiggle boobs were just dumb (I also just don't find the whole idea of OTT sexualizing nuns who as a group explicity reject worldly "vanity" particularly clever tbh) and I think her redesign looks more like a fighter as well and suits her playstyle much better. The only one I'm so-so on is Mona's redesign, I like the older outfit's color scheme better and theoretically like the idea of giving her a bathing suit since it goes so well with her sprint but the ways it made you focus on her buttcrack when she appears to be teenaged was gross.
His lack of knowledge in this field shows hard. "Oh dmn we cant get away with enforcing this on westerns, but on CN we can so lets do it" Chinese players arent dumb. Everytime stuff like this happens CN will cry for preferential treatment of westerns. And that is a death sentence for a CN company. Like ccp involvement. So the only reason it was still done is…. because its precisely mandated by the CCP. End of discussion, no room for debate if u ask me
Ratheil Ratheil! You should do an opinion video on the best TCG burst animation, featuring all the cards of course.
Personally I think Fischl burst animation looks pretty good
it might be because the four characters that got censored are the most sexualized? even with that Lisa should have been censored but idk
Mihoyo create hoyoverse and change the origin of the company out of China to avoid this kinda stuff, the changes was a China goverment doing
Meanwhilte Dehya and Candace:
Fischl's outfit was already censored from beta, it used to be even skimpier.
The only alt skins I’ve kept on my characters are Amber and Jean. But Mona and Rosaria I just don’t like them. I like Rosarías more nun-like look, sure, but compared to the og one? No.
