      It’s not that they’re pale that’s a problem, but the fact that none of the playable characters are at least tan. Like I get that white makes them stand out, but if the npcs are gonna be a mix of different skin tones, why can’t playable characters get some different skin tones? Dehya is already a thing, so hoyo clearly ain’t too scared of making a darker toned character

    Reminder that these are not Latin Americans or modern day Africans. These are indigenous inspired people. The same people Hoyo referenced for the Hilichurl animations. If it wasn’t clear enough, they hold no respect for these cultures or these people. Why else would they mush them together into a melting pot of a region rather than having a singular focus like the other nations (minus Sumeru)?

    Look, I'm Latino, so I get that Latin America has people of all types of skin tones. I see it in my own family, we're not all one color. But, this is based on pre-Columbian cultures. You know... Before the people who brought in the lighter skintones colonized us... It's also not just inspired by Latin America, it's also inspired by North Africa. It's just tiring at this point...

Genshin literally based it off of places IN REAL LIFE but then refuses to add the skintones of the people living there. For example, XINYAn. They added her skin darker than most Liyue characters. And guess what? The liyue children find her Terrifying, and the parents say she looks like a monster. And then with Kaeya? The Mondstadters call him an 'exotic specimen'. And do you not see the enemies in sumeru and natlan? Both places are supposed to have black representation, but then they make every 'black' character super light and then make the black enemies super dark. Even in natlan, the main enemies are BLACK. So we know they can do those skintones, they just refuse too.

      Xinyan yeah but it’s confirmed that Kaeya is white. He’s from Khaenriah and they’re said to be pale like the moon. The only reason Kaeya is as tanned as he is, is because he is outside A LOT. He’s supposed to be polar opposite of Diluc - Diluc works in the shadows while Kaeya is known for taking commissions that get him outside.
      I actually prefer Kaeya that way - because he’s trying to leave his Khaenriah roots behind and be his own person. I think in his friendship quest, he confirms that he’d stand with Mondstadt as that’s his home now.

Yes, there are people that come in all races or colours from those countries, but when the game has a history of doing only the lighter skin characters it's disappointing and unnerving in some cases.
    Also there are other chinese gatcha games that have darker skinned characters than even the npc in genshin.

    "Taking symbolism from culture and flaunting it" isn't a real claim, now I'm not talking as a latin American about natlan but I will talk as a middle eastern about sumeru: the only people that are against Genshin's representation in sumeru are mostly Europeans and people who have nothing to do with it, but for us many players we found joy in the way Genshin "flaunts our cultural symbolism" because it's a way of representation, we found home in the food and the architecture the region and the characters and the way they act and the music to be our representation. Reducing culture to skin color IS the discrimination, and while I do think darker skin tones add more range their absence does not make the game necessarily racist

    It's so sad, as a latin american, even though I'm white, living with people of varied skin tones and hair textures is part of my life and is really important to the culture of this subcontinent, if they're not gonna truly let the people from these cultures participate in them and showcase them in their games, they're just appropriating it. I'm tired of Genshin getting away with it, to me it can't be ignorance anymore, it's just racism to me, how do you not know that native americans are brown? How do you not know at least half of latin america isn't white? In fact,in my country, Brazil, white people aren't the majority because many brown people aren't afraid to identify as brown or black anymore, white people are like 49% of the population now which is a lot but still shows how much it misrepresents latin america, Mexico also isn't majority white people, and there's many other countries like Equador, Peru, rich in culture that Genshin would whitewash

    I kept telling myself there should be around 13-15 characters and the world is inspired by both Mesopotamia and North/West Africa so there’s no need to worry right?
    However after seeing Olorun/Ororon (a character that clearly takes a lot from Yorùbá), how Iansan lost all her red undertones and how the five new characters pass the paper bag test with flying colours… I’m just done and have 0 hope that we will get another character as ‘dark’ as Isnsan.
    Hoyo can honestly just take their grubby mitts out of my country at this point and leave us alone if they are so hell bent on using everything but the people. But hey, the archon turned out not to be dressed like a literal coloniser so at least I should be grateful about that

    The game wasn't made to represent a culture. It was "inspired" to be what it is, different from what it took "inspiration" from.
    It's a fictional world with magic, it doesn't need to represent the world it was made in.
    To be inspired is to be creative, to be creative is to have an imagination. An imagination is: the faculty or action of forming new ideas, or images or concepts of external objects not present to the senses.

Here for example you look at them and dont actually see the key aspects of what they took as inspiration. Theres a point where they transform it so much it doesnt connect with original concept. At that rate, is better to just do another thing. If is pre-colonization, almost everyone was tan or a bit more dark. If is post, there should be a good amount of mix. Is overall bad character desing choice and world building ^^'

      This is so real but I guess it’s valid criticism. But honestly if people want to to take the it’s “racist” route they should say colorist instead, as holy does do very well with all the culture stuff, so many things from Sumeru (if not the people) were so amazing, the music was similar to South Asian music and many stories matched up well, I adored it being a south Asian myself, I think it was things like that that matters more, the actual culture of it not just the skin (although I kinds really wanted to see dark skinned archon tbh it would be pretttyyyyy, i love all skin tones no hate lol) saying this as a brown skinned person

    Imagine crying because of the skin color of three characters. (I'm Latino and I'm dark-skinned) This controversy is so absurd and the funny thing is that most Latinos don't care and we find it so funny to see so many people complaining (mostly gringos). Do you want to deny my point? Just watch a Hispanic video on CZcams talking about the controversy and you will realize it. In the manga they showed us characters from natlan
    dark-skinned and probably 70% of the population will be. This controversy is so absurd. And guess what? This comment will be so hated by all of you, for telling the truth. I wouldn't like to meet anyone who the first thing they judge is the skin color like you guys do. We litterally are gonna feel more represented if we get robbed in Natlan.

    I think this video perfectly described the situation at hand. The amount of people I’ve seen in comments telling others that they shouldn’t be upset because Hoyo is a Chinese company makes absolutely zero sense, considering the fact that they had no problem pulling symbolism from real world cultures, and what not. They even used real world deities and made them pale skin…like what? Kinda feels like when Sumeru was released and the community was scrambling.

    Yea..i may not understand the pain of black people..but as a brown indian, i quite frankly don't care. Yes chasing after white skin has been a problem here, and we are super mixed when it comes to colors, we have palest white indians to real dark black indians. However, i personally do not see a problem with representation in a game. I agree that representation is not exclusive to necessary sectors of life, and that all colours should be given the same privilege BUT at the same time, i hardly see this as someone that a lot of folks complain really need to complain about. At the end of the day, its a game. Some skin shades variety might have been nice to have, but i don't feel very radically about it. And no, the artists version of Black Nahida and other characters was horrible..at least the ones i saw. Atleast change the color of their eyes/hair/clothes to somewhat make it look cohesive, colors look different on different colours. Just repainting skin dark is not doing it.
