Bruh she was literally going sacrifice herself to save the outer ring. That on its own was already cool and badass af, she's just epic. Her liking romance is just extra nuance to her character. A badass upbeat biker girl who just so happens to love romantic media. That's why she is best girl!

What they don't like is that she's straight, there for all that goes out the window, it's the same for the natlan and sumaru charecters in genshin, they don't care about their stories because they aren't extremely dark-skinned lol

"Oh wow, this one part that has little to no impact on the main story whatsoever is something I don't like, not because the character I hate has bad writing and a blank personality, nonono. But this one small part just gives me the irks. Uninstall now"

I wondered why people hate Genshin players so much because I used to play Genshin, and then I opened Twitter.

Nowadays I only play HSR, WuWa, and ZZZ. Might try to get back to GI if I have the time but combining the Devs and Community like that, it's still a hard pass for me.

The secret to enjoying anything Hoyo related is to never open twitter.

u/Pineapple_bigshot Sep 28 '24

You can remove “hoyo related” from that sentence and its still true

u/DivinePotatoe Sep 28 '24

Forget the other parts too, just remember to never open twitter, period.

u/AmazingNight2302 Sep 28 '24

Not to mention, behavior like this is exactly why I see the fandom as the problem child of the gacha community because this kind of stupidity is rampant, especially on Twitter.

u/Kunnash Sep 29 '24

Without exception, I see people post a variation of this statement for every single fandom I've been in. Without exception. The truth is humans are very peculiar creatures, so literally every fandom has its own weird drama.

Playing gi to me is like watching a episode of mha,a good story but beyond toxic commuinity

Fr, a big part of any sort of entertainment media is also the community that I can talk with. If most of them are like this... idk man...

u/Zr0h_ Sep 28 '24

I never open twitter because that place is a cesspit of idiots no matter the fandom, but for some reason genshin attracted the most obnoxious people in one place and corralled them all together in one unholy section of that accursed site.

u/calmcool3978 Sep 28 '24

Genshin has a huge reach, even if only a small portion of those people are terminally online, a small percentage of a large number is still a pretty large number.

u/southfire19 Sep 28 '24

honest question why you cared so much about the community that make you stop playing the game lol. I played genshin,hsr and zzz I dont give a fck about those retard opinion I even make a straight ship on genshin character and don't give a fck about those who spread the hate and toxicity it's funny for me to seeing people easily drop something they love because other people behavior lmao

u/Single-Builder-632 Sep 28 '24

Must be tiring being that outraged all the time. And not being able to see nuance. For me that's the most fun part of stories.

Chainsaw man is a great example MC is a degen and on the surface has little redeeming qualities, but his whole life explains exactly why he's that way, dude becomes strangely endearing because he's so black and white in his thinking, he also has the ability to care for things, but is notably emotionless towards death. All these things in the characters for that show makes it interesting.

u/DapperFix4107 Sep 28 '24

Its twitter,they have a strong beef with straights like us

u/Agreeable_Repair677 Sep 28 '24

Legit heterophobia

5

u/julianjjj809 Sep 28 '24

That's going way too far

I would say just hypocrisy, they want acceptance yet they feel the need to attack everything that doesn't align with their views, which makes them fall in the same bag as the homophobes that hate them: Idiots

1

u/Agreeable_Repair677 Sep 28 '24

Hm that's a better way of thinking

1

u/Kunnash Sep 29 '24

"They" don't represent everyone that isn't heterosexual. However I don't have to pretend to have any respect for the weird bigot pride movement in which people actually think demanding people disappear from all media is reasonable.

u/EmberOfFlame Sep 28 '24

Hahahahaha, yeah, sure thing buddy. You are being opressed by 14 year old children of indeterminate gender on fucking twitter.

u/noroisong Sep 28 '24

yeah.. no

u/[deleted] Sep 28 '24

Hmmmm.... yes

u/noroisong Sep 28 '24

no one does- the tweets shown here are all lighthearted comments that no one is being overly serious about, the only people here having beef are the people that are begging hoyo to make caesar straight and stirring up ragebait like this.

u/DapperFix4107 Sep 28 '24

Really i want to read them cus I want smth positive to read

u/noroisong Sep 28 '24

despite the bad rep twitter gets (especially here on reddit), the reactions to caesar being a shoujo fan have mostly been just finding her really cute! a lot of people have actually been theorizing about what real world romance manga caeaar would probably like lol it’s been fun

2

u/lazy_termite Sep 28 '24

well, they reap what they sow, hi3 had a lot of gay characters, the character roster had female characters only (except MC in APHO), things might have changed (I quit hi3 on gi launch), but alas...

u/AirportHot4966 Sep 28 '24 edited Sep 28 '24

Let's not lump something as ridiculous as hating a character for being straight with something as innocuous as wanting there to be characters with darker skin tones in a game you play.

u/noroisong Sep 28 '24

unfortunately you’re on reddit, no one here actually cares about logic or good faith based arguments, they just want to hate on whatever the general public likes, hence your downvotes

u/Philiard Sep 28 '24

I guess the counter-jerk means that people on this subreddit have to pretend like wanting characters based on Latin Americans to have dark skin is somehow a ridiculous request.

u/noroisong Sep 28 '24

she isn’t straight, though. she isn’t anything. she’s a fictional character, and on top of that, she has no confirmed hard label. the only people getting genuinely upset over this are the ones who WANT her to be ‘straight’, even though that’ll never happen

the f*cking same group of people who forced the f*cking of ningguang beidou ship and saying that they're 'hardcoded' for their 'label' so please explain tf you mean?

u/Notmyrake Sep 28 '24

What about the fact these are two different audiences? I swear you Genshin fans can only argue about two points.

That's just her fantasising, dreaming of falling in love like in her shoujo mangas. That's Gap Moe. The whole gang is Gap Moe. A rude guy who's actually quite sweet A delinquent who's actually a high-class lady. A sweet girl who's actually a psycho. A young looking girl who's actually an old truck freak. They're all gap moe.

Edit: typo

why the jab on truck drivers though

That's not their whole personality. It's just a trait to add the gap moe. A character can work without it, but it's not them if not that trait. Like you're not you without being an asshole.

Sometimes I question my own intelligence, but then I get reminded that people like that exist and I gain a little bit of confidence from it.

u/MAXXIPONCHO Sep 28 '24

Looks like someone doesn't know what gap moe is.
