the voice of albedo, khoi dao, commenting on the Genshin controversy

if a game draws so heavily from real- world cultures and bases a character on the supreme deity of Yoruba religion, and that character ends up looking like pale sasuke batman, people are absolutely within their rights to demand better representation, ESPECIALLY when said game has a clearly-stated commitment to a *global* audience. I hope y'all keeping make your voices heard, and I hope they listen.

Valeria Rodríguez Jul 12, 2024 @ElvisBadger Follow X I could stay quiet about this & protect myself but us folks of color don't always need to stay quiet & let others fk us over and disrespect us so that we can continue to advance at half the pace of our white peers. 1/2 Valeria Rodríguez @ElvisBadger Follow If you're going to use real-world deities, RESPECT them. If you're basing off of real cultures, RESPECT THAT. I'm fine with things being inspired by various cultures- that's awesome. Representation is dope. But bare minimum do some research & show some cultural appreciation. 10:37 PM - Jul 12, 2024
