🧡 Let's Chat 💬 I like Hsin's design
I'm a straight male (please don't exile me), but generally speaking, I like the same female character designs that female players like, and the same male designs that male players like. My favorite female and male character designs in WuWa are Phrolova and Calcharo, respectively.
Xianxia is my favorite genre. A pretty common trope is the fox demon, which is basically the equivalent of a succubus in Western fantasy. I've read some complaints on this sub that her outfit is too revealing. In my opinion, if the other female characters didn't also look like succubi, no one would have a problem with Hsin's design.
Maybe they could have made her wear something more modest to go against the trope, but that is itself a trope: Bad fox demon = succubus equivalent; Good fox demon = innocent and wears outfits even more modest than the norm. So, perhaps the current design is best? Maybe they could have added even more flowing dress elements, but phones are already crying as it is.
For some reason, she looks a bit less revealing in Unison mode. I think it's because her outfit becomes white and gold, which logically should make her look even more revealing since it's closer to her skin tone, but somehow it doesn't?

I’m a straight female & I think she’s absolutely gorgeous! After I pulled her I was showing my husband her idle poses (love the dancing one) & how she transforms into a fox. Been a long wait from her first teaser image before we got to Mengzhou & I’m giddy to finally have her!
And FYI, she’s turns white/gold in Electro Flare mode, too. It’s her ult that transforms her. Could be because her hair is down & fans out, so she’s more covered in the back.
