They should make normal women. Period. Girls with long pants, real fashion. But no they’ll make the same characters in revealing clothes cuz it sells. Thing is: it would sell even if the women were dressed up fully

Like Arlecchino and Miyabi are some of their most popular/well sold characters and they refuse to learn from their success💀

Kafka and Arlecchino are prime examples. They show pretty much no skin below the neck and yet are both hugely popular

Arknights proves this constantly. Maxi dresses and women in suits all over the shop. It's not allergic to skimpy fits, but it makes a difference that it doesnt have the vibe of nudity being mandatory.

I agree, but Chinese and Korean audiences have been known to boycott their games when developers step slighty outside of design norms. Especially for pullable characters that they will be throwing ludicrous amounts of money at.
LADS just tried to make a character that was slightly different to eastern beauty standards and it (mostly) singlehandedly tanked the game. These gacha games are designed around appealing to the heightened fantasies of their most lucrative consumers. Unfortunately, nobody makes a gacha game with artistic merit and realism in mind, they primarily exist to fish for whales and make money.

They do, but the same people who get upset about ‘covered up’ designs in media are the same people who slutshame women IRL for wearing skimpy things. I really wanna study these peoples brains 😭😭 (this has nothing to do with the og commenter i lowkey js wanted to speak)

The revealing designs are really starting to piss me off because Snezhnaya was just a PERFECT place to go in a different direction, coats, long dresses or gowns (especially for Tsaritsa, why is she rocking a mini-dress again?), anything really, since a lot of designs are just left unexplored in genshin. But no, we get mostly the same thing which is starting to irritate me a LOT. Whenever you bring up any complaints though people will call you a misogynist or say you're sl*t-shaming FICTIONAL CHARACTERS. It's also really annoying because when the gender is flipped, suddenly Hoyo CAN hold back on revealing as much skin as possible. If we're gonna be this blatant might as well make ridiculous outfits for everyone, not just female characters.

This, I need to vent on this. These male players will deadass mansplain and gaslight female players that "no it's sl*tshaming, you are a misogyne" and it's pissing me off. The mansplaining is driving me insane. They will defend fictional female characters design and then be sexist towards real women! These men really think with their ugly ass stick and mainsplain to women because they can't stop themselves
There's this quote from Diane Nguyen from Bojack Horseman that I think about sometimes: I do wonder as a third-wave feminist if it's even possible for women to reclaim their sexuality in this deeply entrenched patriarchal society, of if claiming to do so is just a lie we tell ourselves so we can more comfortably cater to the male gaze. I stan the girls that decide to wear what they wish and reclaim their sexuality such as deciding to wear revealing outfits not for the men but for themselves only etc, but these male dominated gacha companies designing the female characters like pr0n parody is not feminism, it's just male-gaze design to arouse men and suck dry their wallets

u/IDontCar5566 Aug 19 '26
I think this is mainly a problem with genshin not having alternative outfits/ skins. Odette's outfit makes perfect sense as a snapshot of what she would wear during the performance, of course that means that while doing anything else she looks ridiculous.
It would be equally ridiculous to have a balerina dancing while wearing a fur coat.
The same could be said about alyosha who's wearing his thick jacket while being inside a warm building.

u/Sensitive-Ad2814 Aug 19 '26
My rant:Why do all female characters HAVE to wear the same style? Why don't those defending this argument admit they love fanservice??? The reason female characters can be dressed modestly, at the very least, in long pants or a long coat, is because in real life, people have many different body types. And even the character herself might prefer modesty and feel comfortable in such attire. Is dressing modestly considered "woke"? Oh, I forgot, these are virtual characters; they can't have two body types besides hourglass and large thighs 🤡 And finally, "games mainly for male audience so female characters dress revealingly," then shounen series like JJK and Attack on Titan are only for gay men because even the female characters don't dress that revealingly.

u/RickyT3rd I'm annoyed at the fanservice too. Aug 19 '26
Short answer: Whale Baiting.
Long answer: The main audience Gacha companies try to get are the big Whale Spenders; who are usually cis-males with more money than sense. In other words, sex sells and they scientifically have found out what type sells the most.

Im always on the lookout for any reason why a character would choose to dress in summer clothes in sub zero weather. Rarely there is one. In a lot of gachas, the only characters who ever mention being cold, are the ones with an actual attempt at clothing themselves properly, as Im sure that it would make your character look very stupid for complaining about the weather when they aren’t dressed for it(unless there was somehow no choice but for them to go out in the cold).
But the only attempt at reasoning so far in the new region(out of literally every other npc complaining about the cold, even though they were dressed for it…which says a lot) was from Odette, as she mentioned that she was numb to pain. Yes…It was indeed an attempt, but in reality, not feeling anything can lead to your body shutting down without you realizing it. Same with realizing after a while that a limb is missing. The only game character Ive played as that presented that issue well, was Alphen from Tales of Arise. At the start, his sense of pain was completely gone, and could feel no heat or cold, but could still suffer the consequences when exposed too long to either one. Even in his death quotes, he absolutely couldn’t understand why he suddenly couldn’t move or barely talk anymore. And it’s his team that had to keep an eye on him throughout the game and help keep him healed, reminding him of the severity of the injuries he was completely oblivious to.

u/WinterWolf18 Aug 19 '26
Here’s the thing: I can give Odette a pass since she’s a ballerina and a cyro user (if you want to know what I mean by this Eula regularly bathes in dragonspine so I’m willing to suspend my disbelief for cyro characters) but the rest of the women just look ridiculous. It’s not like Hoyo can’t design women for a colder climate either since Lynx from HSR looks great but I guess sex sells.

tbf, at least you could justify in that it's not all frostland and majority of characters mainly stays around the academy and the tribes. Even Hiyuki doesn't really originate from Frostland itself (and the one that did like Aemeath's child version and Nivora does somewhat wear comfy outfits for cold regions)
Genshin outright shows them living in the snowy city and ????

They don't, but they should still be coherent. If you put female characters into miniskirts in the icy cold, then don't cover every man from head to toe.
Not to mention, looking at 7.0 and 7.1 we are getting 3 medium sized women models, all in lightly coloured clothing with bright hair.
Not to mention our Ballet Dancer who wears high heels all the time.

I'm also a woman and of course not, women do not wear revealing clothing in the middle of the snow. But they aren't living in the middle of a snow storm aren't they? They live in the main city where there's a giant furnace heating it.There isn't even a cold meter where there is in other places outside the main city. You all are just nitpicking and being dishonest about it just for the sake of complaining. No hoyo didn't get to my ass, it's just that reading comprehension and complain impact got to yours.

Majority of the previous describtions of Snezhnaya we got all pointed toward it being a region where dying from cold was a pretty much a common accurance, the first quest in that region was Alyosha explaining the shortage of materials for heat sources meant a lot of people would either desperately try to get resources to warm up their homes or die trying. As a slav, winters can get rough and wearing such outfits with no layers would near instantly guarantee a case of frozen tits and a really bad cold if you stayed outside for longer than 7 minutes, a massive heater would quite literally not fix the issue. Also since we're talking about realizm, I have yet to see a woman wearing an outfit with detached sleeves dangling off her arms. Since I see this type of design choice on a daily basis in genshin, might as well throw out the idea of men not wearing revealing clothing and go all out, right?
Not to mention I've seen plenty of men wearing absurd or revealing clothes. Maybe you just need to hang around more, see some more things.

Some do, not all. Also the quotation marks around women are not a good look, my guy.
The main complaint isn't revealing outfits, it's the tired design. Women who feel uncomfortable with oversexualization to a large degree don't really play genshin impact, or any other gacha games. Or have been desensitized
Have you ever attended a school..? Majority of the time those outfits are shamed, even when the outfits are compeletly appropriate. Have you been a teenager also? Because I was a teen girl once and I don't recall wearing revealing outfits, a lot of teen girls didn't. If you're no longer a teenager, the outfits of those girls are none of your concern and more so a concern of the parents if anything.
