Honestly, the only one which I will consider equally good would be Rosaria, because Black is my favorite color & Hot Nuns are a switch that is easy to flip on.

That said, fuck censorship & fuck that ugly Mona skin.
Mona doesn't look poor. Mora well spent on flashy clothes !

Same sentiment on Rosaria. The rest has too many details like insignias, useless cloth and too many colors in one place which made the clothing needlessly eye cluttering and unattractive.

It's more than just killing the whole poor vibe, it also kills the design genius of the original which gives her the look of wearing a one-piece swimsuit, which makes sense for a Hydro character. Also, this may be a lighting thing, but her purple looks too bluish.

At least with Jean I have middle ground of the fact that I like it & hate it for many reasons. With Amber I have the fact that she literally looks the same, but & censored than before. With Rosaria I feel like an upgrade in many ways, while also downgraded in many others. I downright hate either of those like I do Mona's.

I like the current Mona style. I hope we still keep it.
The leotard tights style is a "DAMNIT CHINA" innovation. Simple, practical (for a water splashing mage) and her ass just tells you it is her on the field :smug:

Keeping her dominant color (the deep blue ? Prussian ?) over the red may fix it more. Like Amber, this skin is a complete waste of time making it.

Jean gets a capelet, which is kinda nice among the new rubbish she has to wear.
Fits the anemo theme of parachutes, gliders and flattering capes in the wind.

Man, MHY just sets in a bad precedence in that enough people in power farts in their direction, they go down like a bitch.

IIRC, we get both outfits as optional we can change ours. It's the CN server that's fucked, which is why they're getting 1200 Primos, it's not even a full pull, kek.

As for Mona, Leotards > Generic skirts when it comes to being unique. Also, IIRC (my lore knowledge is low, I'm still at AR25), Mona is literally from a Hydro region (Fontaine? I think it's called) so why won't she wear a swimsuit? Also, I've heard it has a circus vibe too, so why not the leotard? In fact, the lore behind the new outfit makes it even more weird cause from what I read, it says she sold the OG outfit to get this one.

As for Amber, her color palette is kinda fucked now, some of it looks good (the headband, the sleeves, the shorts, the holster ribbon), some of it is just plain bad (the white & red in the middle instead of the OG black, the belt, the gloves). Also, the Booba censorship is also weird, the boob window is reduced, but the tits feel enhanced compared to before.

As I said before, Jean is very mixed for me. I love her new color palette more than OG. The black looks better (I'm biased, I admit it), the blue & gold in the cape's inner side looks better, the cape's colors itself looks better with the dark blue & white design, alongside the new cape design in general with coat-like collars. Tho I agree with you the red should be there.

My issue with Jean's design is that some prudish retards are saying that she "FiNaLlY sHe LoOkS lIkE a GrAnDmAsTeR & NoT a StRiPPeR", but to me, she just looks like a butler at times. In fact, the best of this outfit is now we have those same retards are being prudes saying that "Armpits REEEEE". Hell, that same realism fallacy bullshit is going on with others except Amber "FiNaLlY, sHe LoOkS lIkE a NuN" & "FiNaLlY, sHe LoOkS lIkE aN aCtUaL AsTrOlOgEr".

Ironically enough, Rosaria outfit, the best of all here, is the most lore conflicting, one of her main points its that she doesn't look like a nun. Hell, her description text says, "You'd never know she's a nun, except how she's dressed.". She's the rebellious type, she's the type with the feel of an element of malicious compliance, like some senior told her to cover her legs, so she does so in the most technical way possible. Fishnets. She doesn't like being a nun at all. I just like to think that this is Rosaria's alternate outfit which she's forced to wear at formal Church gatherings.

They do, & seeing how it is, it may be the future of Genshin designs. Hell, it already is. Beta Beidou was thicc AF compared to in-game Beidou.

BTW, here's a video example of new outfits, they also did some animation changes for the characters too. Those aforementioned retards are in the comments in all the videos by the way, if you wanna laugh at them.

probably is, given that making 2 versions is a waste of time/money and chinks are autistic af about filthy gweilos getting better shit (just look at the honkai anniversary chimpout).

tho it would be hilarious if they un-nerf fischl for the western version and give her the leotard back not gonna happen since they'd have to give the bugmen more primos then

IIRC, something about Honkai led to the Mihoyo CEO nearly getting stabbed in China. I haven't played Honkai since 2018. I played it on my old phone, & the only thing I remember is that Scythe Maid was my best girl gameplay wise & me being a massive Scythefag since childhood & the Bunny Girl being my best girl in general due to design.

And as I said before, they already are doing it. Here's datamined Shenhe from 1.1 VS the one we got.

Also, here's what I used as an example & got me feeling robbed.

Best girl of the game, deserves to be at her peak.

There's also the infamous Rosaria nerf.

Trying to fuck with CCP while having your entire business located in China is a very unwise move, I'd say.
 
Since everyone is talking about the outfits, rosaria and mona are definitely gonna look "weird" because it's so similar yet so different. Mona clothes are designed to have one nonstop gradient flow as you look her up, down and up again but the skin patch break it. Rosaria's design is also 90% black now which looks really weird in motion because she spins alot so there is no point of reference (even diluc has bright red hair).

Also, they will definitely change more outfits every patch from now on, these are just the first 4 in monstat. I foresee Fish and Lisa being next, with potentially noelle and eula too and when they're done with monstat, lyue is next.

And back to beta news, the husks were nerfed AGAIN to not proc their effects on chrystalize shields, only character shields. I mean, it's more balanced this way but then what's the point if the enemy designed to "counter" shields doesnt work? This is the only part in the game where christalyze and self shields are treated differently.

Odds that next time they try to do something to break the Shield Meta, it’s just giving more enemies Corrosion style effects, just with Legally Distinct names? Just creat more status effects that don’t give a shit about if you have a personal bubble.

Honestly I’m more surprised we made it a year before the outfit changes started, knowing China. I honestly won’t give too much of a shit as long as they don’t force it on the International servers, and honestly if they don’t look completely shit I might intentionally use them. Does it mean we won’t get future Fan Service, probably not, it’ll just take MHY being subtle about it.

As I say that watch whatever character they reveal next go full Remake Tifa…

I’ve said it before, you’d have to imagine someone high up at MHY is contemplating if it’d be worth slowly trying to move out if China. Just quietly

I'd imagine that all China based developers that have reached international success have pondered that during the last few years. China may be a big market, but it's only one market and when your own government is actively sabotaging both you and your customers to an increasing degree...

IIRC, some of the CN patch notes said that the next changes will be around 2.5. The changes are supposedly Lisa, Ganyu, Venti, & Xingqiu.

Considering how a while back I remember there being something about China not wanting “effeminate Male characters”, I’m only surprised it took this long for them to go back to and redesign the Twink.

What's weird is, there are some instances of redesigning. Beta Xiao had some strategic nipple covering at best, & a color scheme later used for Kazoo Kid.

We still never got Archon Venti costume probably for the same reason. I don't mind a JoJo-fied version of the twinks tho.

china is slowly moving to singapore apparently and opening another studio in canada (rumored to make a fps, which would be hilarious given how all three big western fps IPs more or less bombed last year). getting the devs out will be more difficult tho (even without the CCP shenanigans not many people want to move to a new country on their own) and I rather have the bugmen do a good job than them hiring some western devs (worked so well for cp2077).
 
This thread has been really nice for helping me educate myself about the game. Thanks to @LucasSomething for suggesting comps earlier, I've been running a Razor-Mona-Kaeya-Barbara shatter comp and it's been working really well! I just hit AR40 recently.

I've been saving to pull for Ganyu when she drops. I'm undecided how my comp will change when I get her (assuming I'm not unlucky, I think I have nearly enough primos to guarantee her). I have Mona so I'd like to run a freeze comp, but I only have Traveler and Kaeya for anemo and cryo resonance which seems kind of shitty. I pulled Bennett from the standard banner, so I could run Ganyu-Xiangling-Bennett for a melt comp. I'd really like to use Mona though and I dunno if she'd be weird as a 4th piece...

If all that matters is abyss it would be much easier to just put those kind of effects in abyss instead of monsters. When kokomi released and put forced corrosion on floor 11, even the whales were forced to put team healers or else you literally kill yourself.

I didnt finish that abyss at the time but i only had bennet, now i have sayu so i could take it. If they want to enforce something then just reward or punish it through abyss effect. The clam set bubble could easily be a floor disorder to encourage overhealing. Something like "overhealing gives you +5% atk up to 5 times for 15 seconds".

Dont worry about traveler for now, anemo only gets truly strong when you reach AR45+ and start farming 5* VV artifact sets. Hopefully you get another anemo till there.

Kaeya is viable if you have no one else but only for melee attackers. He has surprisingly decent stats, a strong charge atk, gets ER on ascension and is a good cryo battery but his cons are hard to get and rosaria/diona are just too good.

I'll give you a warning tho, while ganyu is obviously strong and can cheese the normal game by spamming rockets from a far, her "meta comps" rely on specific high tier supports. Her freeze comp assumes you have mona/kokomi and venti while her melt comp (somehow overrated and underrated at the same time) assumes you have bennet, XL and zhongli. Her charge atk playstyle also sounds like cancer to play on console/mobile and tiresome even on pc.

Of course, nothing here matters if you dont care about abyss but i think it's worth mentioning. Thankfully you have mona so that already helps you a lot. Remember that you can always use ganyu as an off field subdps too, even if it's a "non meta comp" (childe freeze for example).

I have ayaka so i dont need ganyu but i still want a good archer just to have that role filled and at worst i can use her with ayaka. If you get any gems to spare, i suggest rolling on zhongli too since he's a great support and probably the most beginner friendly character in the game.
 
I haven't been playing the last couple of months, but I will burn everything to get a single Ganyu just because how she can make some boss battles more convenient. Hopefully I won't need to pay actual money but I have enough hours on it to justify a one time spending.
 
i dont understand how people spend money on games like these especially when you can farm whatever item youre buying for free too, yeah its an annoying process but its specifically designed that way so you buy whatever you need rather than spending time on it because you tell yourself youll only do it once.

even if you dont care about falling for that scheme doesnt it make you feel weird about yourself? this is a genuine question because i cant imagine ever feeling comfortable with this.
