Fan outcry stems from what many feel is a failure to accurately represent the cultures each character pulls from, including the fact that Mavukia, Kinich, and Ororon — who seem to be inspired by real-life deities like the Maori’s Mahuika — are all white. It continues a trend in Genshin Impact that has seen players begging for proper representation.
Now some of the actors behind Genshin Impact’s faces have begun to chime in. Albedo actor, Khoi Dao, published a statement on X/Twitter calling for change in Genshin Impact.
Since when did they change the narrative to be space aliens??
It was always like that? The first scene of the first film depicts Jotunheim as a regular old planet. Asgard looks weird for a “planet”, but people just fly to and from it with spaceships in Ragnarok. The last we see of Loki in the first film, he’s drifting off into the stars, and then the next time we see him is when he invades Earth in the service of a big purple alien from space.
Well, always like that in the MCU. The comics have done all kinds of wild takes.
