I know this is quite clickbait-y for a title, but I wanted to rant about the game and want to read other people’s rants, too.
For me, I don’t like Alhaitham’s voice. He sounds like a news anchor with how stoic and rigid he talks. I know it fits the character, but every time he talks, I just get taken out of the immersion because he sounds like a reporter and he’s about to narrate the next bits and scenes lol.
I don’t know if my opinion is unpopular, but I don’t like most of the designs of the female characters. I get that Mihoyo has a certain design philosophy and while it’s not offensive or anything, it also doesn’t stand out to me. Too often, it’s either bare legs no matter what, a super-tight bodysuit or a thin layer of paint instead of proper pants. Some have hairstyles that… make me unreasonably irritated. I feel like Mihoyo creates amazing and sometimes quite intricate designs when viewed from behind, but the front part often looks like it’s been cut in half for the sake of fanservice.
I’m just… disappointed, I think. I want to like them, I really do.
I could imagine that they design characters to look better or more complex from behind because that’s how you see them most of the time. But that’s just a wild guess.
That seems sensible… but then I wonder if they just expect me to not turn the camera around. :') I don’t want to be all negative about it, though, because Sumeru did release some I genuinely enjoy, so maybe Fontaine will have something for me, too.
My reply also wasn’t meant to be that serious 😅
Woops. I tend to get stuck thinking about these things. Thank you for reading my little rant, though. :D’
I think they explicitly said this
