It's just racial narcissism. People can play GTA 5 just fine as Franklin, or The Walking Dead as Lee and get engrossed in the world, but if you dare not make something that doesn't include them in the slightest then all of a sudden it's a problem. I don't know it's just this Bizarre 1st world issue where people cannot play a game happily that they are not wholly represented in, and fankly I just can't relate. I could play the Jedi Fallen Order games while not being a ginger, I could play Tomb raider while not being a woman, I could play GoW without being ripped or Greek. The more and more that I see it the more that I've just come to the conclusion that the US has a narcissism problem and it's making art and gaming and media objectively worse due to people being unable to remove themselves from reality and forcing fantasy to become reality because without doing that they can't enjoy an IP.

I'm tired of people who are obsessed with race and skin color who at the same time call everyone racist who doesn't care about it. Skin color and race is everything to them. They base the entirety of a person on superficial features like skintone and then cram them all into one generalizing box. "People of color" is the exact same thing as "colored people", which is a term to segregate themselves. It's the usual race war but it's coming from the "tolerant left". They'll tell you: "We priviliged white people and you poor POCs. Blacks can't even use a computer and none of them know how to get an ID :(((" and don't even realize how racist they are.

As a black Genshin player myself, i am confused. Well I have been playing Genshin for a month and I never felt sad or dislike the game if a character is not black. When I first got Kaeya my thought was. "Oh this guy freeze stuff huh" Not "Wow my first black character" My thoughts on this issue was. Most Anime/movie character are not Black Infact there are some anime with 0 black character and still popular among both people. But why only target Genshin? Even two of my irl Genshin friends(also black) never talked about this topic , all we talked about was how good is this character?, oh you are Ar 60 that's cool. I strongly believe that this much of community power can be used for something productive. Like the wish system is trash maybe we can use this much power to do something useful to change the wish system. Idk that's all my thoughts 💭

Now that "a game with a fictional story" doesn't have as many black characters as they would want to have, all hell breaks loose. Not only that, but they consider anyone saying the same exact thing as they did in other cases, as "disrespectful and insulting". The only thing these type of people keep proving is their absurd hypocrisy.
@alissonluvr

Firstly, fictional characters without any relation to a specific ethnicity, culture or whatever can be played by anyone, who is providing good acting skills. Their ethnic background should be the least concerning part about that shit. Secondly, fictional characters with a clear relation to a specific ethnicity, culture or whatever should be represented correctly without issues otherwise it is plain disrespectful without honoring the actual people. If you can take everything from certain groups to put an identity for your so called „medium” but not other aspects than this shit is absurd. Thirdly, characters like Ariel, Peter Pan etc aren’t based on a specific nation. However characters like Hercules, Queen charlotte etc are based on a clear group of people, that isn’t represented correctly. That is the huge differences between these problems one doesn’t justify the other thing. Basically the same shit with Assassins creed the character yasuke, who isn’t representing the actual people of Japan or making false claims about that character to force this „diversity” nonsense. On the other hand it’s the same shit with genshin impact, who takes clear inspirations from diverse places such as West Africa and South America. They are even taking all the elements of these diverse groups but cannot represent the actual people correctly. It would be the same case for Avatar the last air bender. There are clear inspirations from diverse groups such as East Asia and Central Asia. That’s one reason why the first live action movie sucked ass because they couldn’t represent the actual people. Then the Netflix version came out without having the issues in the first live action movie. Besides that yes not everything is so called „woke” and I hate that this fucking word is being used in such a stupid matter all the time around the fucking internet.

@@alissonluvr First of all - those stories are based on specific folklore of specific people around the world. Playing it by a random race IS cultural appropriation and you know it. Snow White and Rappunzel are from Germany, the setting in which the stories are based in, also confirmed that - to add to that, Snow White was mentioned to have white skin and Rappunzel is a german name. Peter Pan was a normal white baby who was dragged to Neverland as stated in the original work. Tinkerbell was a white pixie and Ariel (which comes from the Danish fairy tale) had white skin. All of that information are mentioned in the original stories. You know damn well that Aladdin and Jasmin had to be potrtayed by actors of specific ethnicity. Same goes for the Genie even though he was originally blue and when he did turn into a human-like entity, he had white skin. Your type of people will use this as an argument ONLY when you are trying to justify when colorwashing happens to white characters, but will be the first to whine when the opposite happens (like the same people whined about Lilo and Stitch cast not being dark enough, even though ethnically, they were picked correctly. But your types will whine only when the skin isn't dark enough and not the other way around). Secondly. It's either both or none at all. You can't have the cake and eat it too. To add to that, taking inspiration from a place in real world is not the same as using their people to represent them. Genshin never called those places Africa like Ubisoft did with their game calling it Japan and failing to not only portray the era in a wrong way, but also f'd up with using Yasuke who isn't even acknowledged to be a samurai to the majorioty of the world (only the Western world used him as a propaganda and push that narrative out, as it was already proven by looking at the Western historian text about Yasuke - one written for awestern consumer while the other for the Eastern. Both being complete opposites of each other), yet alone a hero. There's a plethora of games like Genshin that does that. The thing is though, the market normalized the European culture, architecture and folklore, so now some ignorant people aren't even aware that the type of the general fantasy setting (with castles, forests, kindgoms, princes, princesses, kings and queens with a crown and a throne, etc. derive from Europe) - yes, there are some branches of these things in other places too, but the combination used in the fantasy settings comes from Europe. To add to that, the fantasy fauna used in these games also comes from the European belief systems and folklore (from giants, fairies, elves, sires, gorgons, dragons, etc.). Again, not claiming that all of the above are individualyl exclusive to Europe, but in the combinations they are used in a fantasy story, they are clearly based on the European folklore. You mentioned Avatar the Air bender, but how about we focus on the other Avatar - which is also inspired by an Earthly culture, yet, since it's a fantasy story, their people are aliens. You need to understand that what you are talking about is purely a western idiotic ideological propaganda that is focusing on this to an absurd extend. The rest of the world isn't affected by this in such case. The vast majority of people who are pointing this out, are pointing out the hypocrisy of the individuals affected by this western mentality. There's a reason why there's a huge decline in western-affected media (with the whole baby inc. influence bs) consumption while the eastern one is okay. You can call it whatever you want, but it's clear as day, that the majority doesn't and will not bend the knee to this type of ideology.

@@kaicluster6783 I never claimed otherwise in my first comment to your first point and even gave you examples. Yes, this also includes folkore of different groups, in what kind of extent they are pronounced and used in this context. The examples you mentioned with Snow White and Rapunzel is a clear example that they are fairy tales based in Germany. In addition, Snow White explicitly mentions what she looks like. In Rapunzel, her appearance is not explained more specifically, except that she has long blonde hair. Nevertheless, it is a very strong indicator that she is German. Just the fact that Rapunzel's name comes from the popular "Rapunzelsalat", which would be lamb's lettuce in English shows certain hints, but it's not as meaningful compared to the other things in the story, but it's just a small funfact. Why should I dispute things here, please? No Peter Pan was never clearly described as a "white" baby or anything in the story, if he was then he would most likely be British, however it was only mentioned that he was born in London. He could also have another ethnicity besides being British. He could also be Scottish as his physical characteristics were kept very vague in the original story. However, Barrie never really described Peter Pan's physical appearance in detail and left it to the reader's imagination. Also, this character has been played by different people over the years. I could go into a lot more detail about Neverland, that it's a very imaginative place with very diverse characters. The same thing I mentioned about Peter Pan's appearance also applies to Tinkerbell, the author never gave specific details about her appearance so it was left to the reader's own imagination. In the original work she is described as just a bright light, making Tinkerbell very difficult to see with the human eye. No, in the original work the little mermaid was never really described as "white" or anything like that. The same thing applies to the original work of the Little Mermaid. In the story, no reference is ever made to her specific external features. Exactly the same thing, it's in the eye of the beholder... If we're talking about the Disney live action movie of Ariel, then of course she doesn't look like the animated one. Well because Disney has all the rights to their works, they've always done their own thing. I don't care what Disney does, I'm not interested in this wannabe company in the end. No even the live action movie of Aladdin was a disaster, this whole movie is pure garbage just like the animated movie that mixed different cultures and regions into one complete work so that this is supposed to represent a complete group. It's just like mixing the Scandinavian region with the Caucasus region, trying to represent these unique and different countries as one. Yes, if you are trying to take clear inspiration from different works, then do it better. Aladdin was very clearly inspired by The Arabian Nights Tales, yet it still sucked ass. There are definitely works that do a good job of taking inspiration from the arabian night tales themselves, like the anime/manga Magi. Bro what are you talking about that I would be the first person to whine about shit like this. You don’t even know me and should look at yourself, you're no better than these people because you are making false claims about me that aren't even true. No the same energy I put in here is the same with other misconceptions but it's you who doesn't get it, why should I get upset about Lilo and Stitch when they were chosen correctly, what are you even babbling about. It's you who can apparently only subcategorize people into "black" and "white". Yeah the new assassins creed game completely sucks, but what do you expect from a studio like Ubisoft that has been publishing garbage since the last few years they can't even represent Japanese history properly without their compulsion to collect oppression trophies from minority groups just to force that diversity bullshit. Genshin impact always made it clear where the regions are based on. Literally all of these regions in Genshin impact represent a whole ass country or regions based on the real world just because they aren’t named as that specific country doesn’t change the fact that they completely lack recognition to that. Yes I agree with you (as you mentioned, even if there are these fantasy creatures etc in other regions it doesn't change the fact, but it's also no secret that many works in the fantasy genre have taken a lot of inspiration from Europe. ) This shows a unique atmosphere and history that is still relevant today. No I don't, you didn't understand me explicitly. The same energy that i put here goes for other things too. Apparently it seems like you only have discussions on such topics with brainrotted Twitter incels.

Skin tone alone does not represent a culture. A culture can have a range of different skin tones due to multiple factors like interracial marriage, time spent in the sun, geological location, a multitude of genetic mutations, etc. What truly represents a culture is belief, language, music, dance, art, food, architecture, history, ideology, religion, blood bond, and so on and so forth! The fact Twitter boils down someone's culture down to their skin tone sickens me. And then they have the audacity to go and change a characters skin color to meet their expectations on what an ethnicty should look like. To think a group of people should only look one way is racist. So good on Hoyo for not kneeling to the true racist. And I can't wait to see the cultural representation that Natlan brings to Genshin.

As a Genshin Loremonger, let me write you a legitimate in-universe possible reason. The sky of Teyvat is fake. This is a known fact. The stars in the sky and the sun may very well just be artificial constructs or holes into another reality. There may not be light of a conventional style shining down on the world. This could be magical light that, while plants and animals can live under it, it doesn't react with melanin in human skin and therefore will not cause the darkening of the skin whether through tanning or generational evolution. Bam. Everyone in Genshin is white and there's is now a logical, explained reason. Moving on.

Here are my two problems with this phenomena. 1. It's from a Chinese company.

They're not gonna shoot themselves in the foot for internet brownie points. 2. The characters are not white. Just like a lot of the dark-skinned characters in anime are not black. Asians simply have a greater range of skin tones. They prefer lighter skin-tones due to their own cultural stereotypes. It has fuck all to do with Western racial discrimination.

I like how when Fontaine got released all the French ppl laughed and jokes about how there’s characters named basically Gravel or Pavement or the dog Baguette. I mean, Furina is basically Marie Antoinette with the pastries representation n such. And that’s a rather dark period of their history. Mondstat, inspired by Germany, had this ruling clan that was basically “you are lower than me because… so I will annihilate you”. Inazuma/Japan and the wall basically you don’t know what happening there. So yeah. They take inspiration from countries and make amazing stories. They borrow aesthetics and names. What, should Greek ppl sue my Bulgarian aunt for naming her daughter Hera? We have nothing to do with Ancient Greek mythology. Or should Tomas Harris be sued for naming his famous psychologist Hannibal, after Hannibal from Carthage? There are so many ppl naming their kids names from different cultures. So, there’s no way you can name a person with a certain name only if they look like the person/deity of the same name. Idk maybe because in Europe, ppl don’t gatekeep their cultures like westerns and it would be an honour for us to be included and being represented even with a simple fkn apron. And the saddest thing of all is that all these ppl don’t care about culture but rather for race. It’s always about race. And it’s never backwashing (even tho ppl love recycled characters rather than new). The thing is, if there’s ever a game that takes from my white Balkan culture and puts a black character, I WONT CARE because if it’s not HISTORICAL ACCOUNT of something then there is no need to bite.
@Veslelia_cw

They say "When it takes so much real life references to cultures and not make the characters black, is racism and colorism". Yes, that's a real thing that some freak was telling me in comments. Just like you said about French people making fun of it because although they may use names, food, music and clothing, it's still just cultural references to add themes to their fictional regions. They think that the only way you can represent culture, is with skin color. When the cultural references in game are accurate and done is good taste. It also makes me laugh that people who get mad at anime characters, who are usually pale skin, get angry because most of them are just that. They never stop to think that anime characters will usually be pale skinned because that's where anime originates from and that the Asian devs, in the Asian country would make characters that would remind them of themselves, being pale skinned. But they think because they referenced culture, that it MUST include skin color, otherwise it's colorism and culture appropriation. The brainrot is real with these, I would be happy seeing my culture represented done so accurately and respectfully because that's what matters when representing culture, not races.

because to them black = diversity. Nothing else means diversity. A fully black cast would be most diverse, a fully White cast the least diverse. A fully asian cast they would begrudgingly admit was diverse, though they dont want to admit that they want more black characters in it. Thats how their logic works. black = diverse, White = anti-diverse, asian = no change to diversity Someone might ask something about how diversity originally meant diverse minds, thoughts and ideas but we've come a long way since that. That kind of diversity is shunned, while this superficial racist diversity is celebrated.

You know what's crazy about it? Most of these characters aren't even white. The idea that characters are either white or black is a western thing, and I guarantee you, the East Asian audience automatically perceive these characters as having East Asian features (mixed-race AT MOST but still mostly Asian), because guess what, Asians tend to find Asians more attractive. Most do want a different eye/hair color though, as dark/dark brown gets old when everyone else has it. I love how by calling this whitewash, they are being very racist towards East Asians. Chinese people can have very pale skin, can also tone easily which is why fair skin has been associated with a higher social status (thus beauty) for thousands of years. So they aren't trying to whitewash anything. They are just making "ideal" E. Asian characters. Ignore character names. That's just for flavor. Another fun fact: Chinese people don't generally think white people are paler, just pinker/having a colder undertone. Because we are competing with other East Asians not with white people (so what skin colors they have are irrelevant), and also because ideally, East Asians can be just as pale. In reality though, you can only hide from the sun for so long, so you wear 10 layers of foundations.

To be fair, there is some truth to the issue.

So yes, in a sense, it's weird that when all that inspo gets posted in game and everyone is as white as milk, it raises an eyebrow. However on the same note, it's a game, by a chinese company, like what else do we expect lmao, they're gachas too, their point is to sell and we know dark skinned characters just dont sell well in their main target audience. So, alas. It is what it is.

Well, unlike Western culture, asians(including my country, Korea) tend to like pale(not white!) skin more than tanned or black skin. This is because society was based heavily on agriculture, and the novel class wanted to show their power to 'not work outside in the sun' by showing their pale skin. It is not that asians hate 'black' people and like 'white' people. Instead, it is over 1000 years of cultural effect that has nothing to do with racism at all since it happened between 'same race' a long time ago, too.
