[Vantoria VII @VanT0Ria]

@WingEmperorBD @g2013kareevk @GIRetardedTake Thank you. It seems I understood you correctly then. I would've appreciated for the conversation to remain civil all the way through, but tis twatter dot com, I'm afraid. I can happily enjoy disagreeing with you and bringing an end to this convo 🙂

[Vantoria VII @VanT0Ria]

@WingEmperorBD @g2013kareevk @GIRetardedTake After all, that would be mixing concepts from different times and places from what once was the Roman Empire.

[Vantoria VII @VanT0Ria]

@WingEmperorBD @g2013kareevk @GIRetardedTake I see. Let's see if I understood you correctly. Say I set a game called the "Remulus empire" and the ruler is an emperor called "Gaius Augustus". Would you find it enjoyable to see such empire having both the Big Ben, cars and have the common tongue be some version of Spanish?

[Vantoria VII @VanT0Ria]

@WingEmperorBD @g2013kareevk @GIRetardedTake "points in both *design* and name to multiple things, some of which are anachronistic"
You missed a very important word there.

[Vantoria VII @VanT0Ria]

@WingEmperorBD @g2013kareevk @GIRetardedTake In what way is it a misconception where the structure of each "tribe" is "tribal" with chiefs, the rituals, the sages and all?

[Vantoria VII @VanT0Ria]

@WingEmperorBD @g2013kareevk @GIRetardedTake And that's the whole difference between Chasca and Tez. Chasca points in both design and name to multiple things, some of which are anachronistic. Tez, while he uses anachronistic tech, points to a specific time and place.

[Vantoria VII @VanT0Ria]

@WingEmperorBD @g2013kareevk @GIRetardedTake That's why I worded my initial reply of the cowboy hat and the furs being called "Mayan dress" while mariachi music plays. Because even llaneros/gauchos and cowboys have distinct looks and history despite being loosely related.

[Vantoria VII @VanT0Ria]

@WingEmperorBD @g2013kareevk @GIRetardedTake Your replies are not showing at the same time lol. I just saw this btw. Gonna look at your other posts in a bit, chill

[Vantoria VII @VanT0Ria]

@WingEmperorBD @g2013kareevk @GIRetardedTake I would assume that her bearing the scars of that kind of life wouldn't be that much of an ask. But that's just me

[Vantoria VII @VanT0Ria]

@DavidSamue19099 Throwing gasoline on that fire, huh? I respect that 😎

[Vantoria VII @VanT0Ria]

@WingEmperorBD @g2013kareevk @GIRetardedTake Care to elaborate? What inspiration are we talking about? I don't think you've been clear on that, exactly.

[Vantoria VII @VanT0Ria]

@WingEmperorBD @g2013kareevk @GIRetardedTake Her lore. She has that abyss energy sickness and nothing to show for it. She also grew up with the saurians, so, feral child adopted into the tribe later.

[Vantoria VII @VanT0Ria]

@WingEmperorBD @g2013kareevk @GIRetardedTake What would make me racist towards a nation of fictional characters?

[Vantoria VII @VanT0Ria]

@WingEmperorBD @g2013kareevk @GIRetardedTake But even disregarding the roots of the name, Chasca's design doesn't sell the idea of "feral child with terminal illness that can kill her and others" either.

[Vantoria VII @VanT0Ria]

@WingEmperorBD @g2013kareevk @GIRetardedTake Which you know, is fitting for someone who bears the name of a god of disasters like hurricanes, too.

[Vantoria VII @VanT0Ria]

@WingEmperorBD @g2013kareevk @GIRetardedTake Yes indeed. And tell me, if one were to pick its inspiration, what would be closer? A cowboy as an inspiration for the goddess of beauty and fertility? Or a cowboy as an inspiration for the spirit of a tragic Juliet that lives in the river with her Romeo?

[Vantoria VII @VanT0Ria]

@WingEmperorBD @g2013kareevk @GIRetardedTake It could not possibly be the fact that you can tell at a glance that Tez is inspired on a culture while you could show Chasca to someone unfamiliar with genshin and not exactly know the region she's supposed to embody, right? I see.

[Vantoria VII @VanT0Ria]

@WingEmperorBD @g2013kareevk @GIRetardedTake There's a reason why I asked for those detailed threads. Because, by all means, if the research is there, it should be as easy to point out as it is with Tez's design. I might just not know where to look for now, yknow?

[Vantoria VII @VanT0Ria]

@WingEmperorBD @g2013kareevk @GIRetardedTake You sure are quick to draw conclusions, albeit the wrong ones. Here. I'll throw you a bone. What could be the reason I could be enjoying one but not the other? I could point to a lot of things FGO's Tez makes up for the sake of the game, but I can enjoy him and LB7 as a story.
