@Rum____@PlayOverwatch If her design shifts into an ABC look and vibe, that would feel off and hard to accept—not because ABC aren’t beautiful (they absolutely are), but because it wouldn’t match Anran’s core character premise. They’re simply two different style directions.
@Rum____@PlayOverwatch Anran should first and foremost read as a young, local Chinese girl. Many of us have a shared, intuitive baseline for what that looks like.
@Rum____@PlayOverwatch This is a misrepresentation. No one said “1% attractive” or “repulsive.”
My point is about cultural authenticity and consistency in character design direction. We can recognize cultural cues because we live in that context—this is feedback, not an insult toward any group.
@PlayOverwatch Anran is already excellent and matches our impression of her character. As Chinese, we have a clear understanding of the correct aesthetic within our cultural context. If the team is determined to make changes, we suggest considering this proposal from our player community.
@PlayOverwatch Because of this, our community is more united than ever—and I’m pretty sure this isn’t the kind of “unity” you want. Everyone’s saying: “Protect Anran. Replace the English VA.” We’re doing this to protect a Sichuan girl who feels truly homegrown to us. Because we love her—deeply
@PlayOverwatch I’ve long respected the ow art team’s work—it even influenced my career. We still trust you’ll deliver. But if this misses the mark, you may lose a huge number of Chinese players. Seriously.😐
