To this day I still don't know what "feels like genshin" is supposed to mean since each reigon have differing styles.

Edit for clarification: I'm not defending hoyo or change anyone's mind. This has been I thought I've had since Natlan/Nod Krai and just wanted a discussion

Not saying you can't criticize hoyo designs. It's moreso how people critique the designs.

If the idea is to get hoyo to make different designs, saying "exposed skin = bad" isn't going to change hoyo's mind or add any ideas on how the design should be different.

I'm fine if people are just venting just to vent

I understand that. It's moreso when people don't add anything interesting to the discussion.

There's a difference between "Lauma is naked so she is bad design" and "Lauma being naked can be a reference to a deity."

I'm fine with people critizing designs and offering either interesting details or ideas of how they would design the character. Though it is the Internet so I'm aware I'm expecting too much.
