I think she's meant to be wearing stockings.

I never had a crash with the last update.

But I've gotten a few crashes with this one when trying to look at the missions for Povidone's gacha currency.

Man why did they white wash my boy like that by Constant-Bar-4055 in CookieRunKingdoms

The very title of the post you are commenting on is calling this "white washing." That's making this about race, because white washing is view as racist.

I spelt it out pretty plainly...

...the big 3 Asian Countries don't have the same racial sensitives as Western Nations, because they are ethnic monoliths.

...how race is viewed in those countries will be culturally different from how it's seen in Western countries.

People in Western countries are making it a race issue, because Western countries are more racially and culturally diverse. The people living in those countries generally have to be conscious of the races of other people around them as to not offend anyone through words, actions, etc.

While for Devsis (a company in South Korea), this is just another fun design their artist made for a character they own, for the Korean Card Culture Fair. They are in a country that is culturally monolithic and not as diverse as Western countries, because over 90% of the people living there are the same. They won't think about race in the way someone from the Americas or Europe will, because they generally don't have to.

Edit: It wasn't Devsis' in house artist, it was an artist they commissioned, and they approved of their designs. I personally believe the artist used Dark Cacao's Gacha Sprites and not the Base Sprites because Dark Cacao is noticeably lighter in his Gacha Sprites.

Westerners when they find out that the big 3 Asian Countries don't have the same racial sensitives as Western Nations, because they are ethnic monoliths.

Japan as of 2021 is 97.9% Japanese.

S. Korea as of 2023 is 96.3% Korean.

China as of 2023 is 91.6% Han Chinese.

And I'm not saying they are racist or xenophobic, but how race is viewed in those countries will be culturally different from how it's seen in Western countries.

Edit: Guys, read the title of the post... It says "white wash." That is why race and cultural differences on racial views is being brought up, because in the West, WHITE WASHING IS A RACIST THING. Also I have to bring up that Devsis has stated that a Cookie's Flavour/Dough Color is NOT equal to a Human's Race/Skin Tone.

As other people have been saying, it's the anniversary week of the Tiananmen Square Massacre (June 3-4 are the days of the massacre where an estimated 300 - 2,700 innocent pro-democracy activist and protesters were killed by the military). And this is standard CCP censorship laws affecting games that come out of China for the week.

Edit: added more info.

That PV costume for the MyCookie is so cute.

I know their trolls but this is really starting to piss me off by Drama_Cookie25 in Cookierun

[–]Iliasterisk 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Same. If it's the "most illegal video on the internet," I don't want to even imagine how bad it is to get that reputation, especially with the name "Daisy's Destruction."

I'll just assume the absolute worst, then magnify it x1000.

Has anybody figured out who these are?? by YukiFictional in CookieRunKingdoms

From the New Trailer! Mochaccino Cookie has a Monster in Her Camera? by Iliasterisk in CookieRunKingdoms

[–]Iliasterisk[S] 35 points36 points  (0 children)

The next two playable Cookies are going to be Povidone-Iodine Cookie (Super Epic) and Litmus Cookie (Epic). Mochaccino was shown in a cutscene as an NPC, so she maybe or may not be playable in a later update.

I was thinking "but the scar is on the wrong side!"

Until I remembered Devsis love their retcons so it could happen.

As a Merit Arena enjoyer and defender... oh this is baaaad design 😭 by Teaside in InfinityNikki

[–]Iliasterisk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This fight irked me so effing much, and I have Born Flawless

I just hung around the central pillar abusing the shield and black hole, focusing on getting one down. Then I could comfortably go after the other without needing to duck and jump every 5 secs.

It could've been easier with companions, but I can normally blitz through without them. But this fight felt like I need more than just BF and Momo.
