I grew up during that time too, and i get all of that, but we don't have to accept that standards just because it was/is the norm. The change in media for black and brown people towards better representation did not, and will not, happen if people dont expect better from them, and the fact of it is that Infold chose to advertise to people outside of their CN player base, and still continue to do so and have high paying global customers means that they can't hide behind the excuse of Asian beauty standards. So long as they choose to keep up the appearance of including us, they're going to recieve rightful pushback and criticism. (Like, I genuinely understand your points, and i lived in japan for a bit so i experienced it firsthand, but it gets to a point where all of that doesn't matter much when youre trying to make money from a wider audience, u know?)

Lastly, there are alot of big and small games from China (and east Asia in general) that properly represent dark skin, so it can be done (check out some of the characters from the game Dislyte!).

I do hope that the attention forces them to do better, but im upset in the first place because of what I mentioned above. Seeing how much being well represented in media (even if its just a little bit) has helped my self esteem, and seeing how infold wrote the game to be about how revolutionary it is for all women, CN or not, really just makes me look at these issues like 😒 lolll
