[minatoful]

Very important information!

Long story short an anon insider from Hoyoverse is stating that while raising awarness on social media apps is great. We should take a step further and start dropping reviewing on any Playstore Site that has Genshin.

Express why you are dissatisfied and use hastages to bring more awarness. As for right now the Playstore reviews are dropping that it went from a 4 star review to 3.0 review. Hoyoverse is desperately trying to get reviews back by adding bots.

We shouldn't be just doing this with Genshin. Do this with ALL HOYOVERSE GAMES. Honkai Star Rail, Tears of Themis, ZZZ, etc.

HSR is facing the same problem as Genshin with Boothill being Native American coded, Penacony reloving around Jazz but have no Black character, Aventurine being Romani etc.

YEA YES!! I tried talking about this in my Hoyoverse boycott post, but I only touched on it briefly- but Hoyoverse games IN GENERAL are the overall problem. Tears of Themis has issues with being orientalist- and just shitty. Zenless Zone Zero apparently has actual blackface! Not good! Uhhh- outside of the record store on one of the little record poster thingies I believe. Honkai impact third has… straight up racism, and a subpar character plot about learning to love your skin color no matter what and she just goes “ummm actually no :)”, and oh my god I haven’t talked much on Honkai Star rail on this account but ykw I’ll go further into it.

Boothill- Boothill is based off of Native American culture, and is supposed to also be Latino. In the CN ORIGINAL translation of the game- his planet is named after two very real Native American tribes, his backstory recreates the same colonization that happened to native Americans specifically- calling Boothill’s people savages, and putting them in reservations after completely carpet bombing his planet, killing most of the population, and destroying the ecosystem. However, despite this Boothill has nothing to show for his heritage, or the fact that he is based around native, and Hispanic people except for the fact that he’s a cowboy- and even then sometimes I feel like he’s played up in game as like actually stupid for comedic relief when he’s not stupid AT ALL. (Sorry, Boothill’s one of my favs and a bad hyperfixation so I’m super passionate about how he needs proper representation)

Aventurine- aventurine is called a slur by sparkle, both sparkle and dr ratio point out specific racist stereotypes against aventurine that are usually targeted at Romani people which is who aventurine, and his entire home planet are based off of (that’s why I’m not a huge fan of Dr ratio x aventurine personally. Dr ratio isn’t racist imo, he’s just lowkey fucking mean and said the wrong thing to the wrong person). Aventurine’s backstory is also fucked in my opinion, and the way people in the fandom take his backstory and treat him as a character only really started getting bad bad after we found out he was Romani, but that’s a fandom issue- it’s still something to comment on.

Arlan- while Arlan is the darkest character Hoyoverse has made to date, he also has his talent names beeee references to slavery. Straight up. “Shackle breaker”, “frenzied punishment”, “swift harvest”, and then his eidolons- “breaking free”, and “hammer and tongs”. Not cool, kinda fucked up.

And that’s just the characters I can think of off the top of my head- not including Jade and her shit cause I know she has some stuff that’s like fucked up about her and ik she’s racist I just haven’t done my research on how she is racist and like gathered all the evidence basically lol, but that’s also just the characters, not to mention what you said anon- how penacony is based off of the jazz age but has no playable black characters? Girl whatttt? Gimmie a slay ass like black singer who’s besties with Robin, cmon now- don’t a coward Hoyoverse, you know DAMN WELL that she would sell too.

Hoyoverse games overall are like this, so please pay attention to all Hoyoverse games, and Hoyoverse mostly only listens to the App Store reviews so PLEASEEEEE go and review bomb ONLY Hoyoverse games. Start with Genshin and Honkai Star rail, go to Zenless Zone Zero and Honkai Impact 3rd then finish with Tears of Themis, don’t do it all at once if you can’t!! Just go review all of them one stars!!

POV old hyperfixation that consumed you VS current hyperfixation consuming you: FIGHT

Hoyoverse

OKAY FINE THE GENSHIN HYPERFIXATION CAME BACK. DAMNIT. AND I GOT INTO HONKAI STAR RAIL TOO!!! I ain't got the time to keep up with the lore!!! Why is it running parallel to my Sonic insanity?!

Anyway yeah. Traveler Twins and Trailblazers are my jam, I love Hoyo MCs and I love them feral. Also if there's a pair of doomed siblings it's almost definitely on my radar.

Genshin: Anything to do with the Archons is my joy. Sumeru & Fontaine gang are my favs. Capitano has been my beloved captain ever since the Fatui Harbingers teaser dropped in 2022 unfortunately. Completely normal about Neuvillette, Vautrin and Carole. All the doomed siblings in the world belong to me.

HSR: Like a cactus growing in the desert, a CaeAll main emerges. Unfortunately, I am a top Trailblazer enjoyer. Welcome to Caelus/Ratio/Aventurine (Caeratiorine) hell. Someone free me. In happier terms I love Sunday & Robin!!! yippie!!! Toxic doomed siblings!!! I'll kill for the Astral Express crew. Caelus & Stelle binary star shenanigans is my favorite thing in the world.

Sonic (Save me)

It's about how Maria is the Earth's soul and Sonic is the sun and Shadow is the moon and they are also all three things at once. They are incarnations of the universe's love, your honor.

Maria... humans want the sky because they cannot fly, but you, who lives amongst the stars, wants nothing more than to breathe fresh air on your beautiful blue planet.

Shadow is artificial divinity and his life is infinite and he, who fears for Sonic more than Sonic fears for himself, is just as irresistibly pulled into a blue orbit as everyone else Sonic has met. Shadow, who is cursed to love things that resemble the Earth.

It’s all One Piece? (Always has been)

Uta-chan is the most beautiful diva in the world, thank you for your time! Luffy’s my favourite little guy, and by extension I am also extremely normal about ASL. I also looked at cool mysterious characters that show up for like a dozen chapters and asked, 'is anyone going to love them?' and didn't wait for an answer.
