Have to disagree with the Jianxin take, I think she the only one where the black/white colour really makes sense given her whole thing is the ying and yang.

@@Kurokami112 yeah if the function of Chixia's outfit is to look like a hippie asking for a beating then I agree.

I actually really like the designs and muted color aesthetic. it gives the game a uniqueness that separates it from other open world rpgs that it competes with, and gives it a sense of realism. And there are still designs like encore, Verina, yinlin, jihnsi, changli, etc that have different palates. It just makes everything fit together more nicely, and while not every character has that uniqueness that genshin has, with the setting of the game and the storyline, I think the muted color and more realistic approach fits the game better,

I played Punishing Gray Raven (Kuro's previous game) and the color palettes and design style is similar to that game considering both games are set in a post apocalyptic world.

Chixia isn't originally a redhead either

Personally i really do like Jianxin's design. -The mostly black and white color scheme, representing Yin and Yang and her taoist ideals. -The outfit being a relatively modest outfit compared to a lot of the cast, but still having a bit of skin to show that, although she's from the mountains and grew up as a monk, she's very free with how she thinks while still being able to uphold her taoist ideals. Although i feel this COULD have been done a little more nicely by making the outfit a LITTLE bit more consistent, and maybe even add more flowing aspects to emphasis her aero element/free flowing nature, like a long, detached sleeve or something rather than her long arm length gloves. I feel its good enough as is. -The stupidly long Ahoge. Honestly i just really love it lol. And yeah, i feel less crazy knowing im not the only who feels like Female Rovers design feels really weird in a lot of places. -the random straps -Her...shorts? When you look at them and think about it, dont make ANY sense dimensionally -The BIG ASS BOW that is glued to her head. Great video though! Definitely interesting to hear what you had to say about things.

sounds more like a preference rather than a problem. I personally like the designs, especially female rover.

Long live black/white/gold + character specific color. i like most of the designs and how they mix together, the most monochromatic ones like sanhua and baizhi are really cool, and the most colorful like verina or danjin are beautiful, without trying to outshine every other character or competing for attention. Yeah some details make no sense, like f.rover straps, but given how original the designs are in gacha space i think they turned out really good.

I do like the designs better in genshin since they stand out more. But i think both the tone and settings of the games play a part, too. In genshin, it's taking place during what we would consider 16 to 1800s, where flashy designs were the norm, especially in high society. Whereas in WuWa, its more modern where simplicity and function is the more prevalent style. I think the outfits fit the respective tones of their games at least.

@niconii3663 personally, the "battling" between genshin and WuWa is dumb to me. It's like the whole console war thing. I just bought all the consoles and built a pc so i can play all the games. I play both genshin and WuWa, and they both have pros and cons. But i still like both and will continue playing both.

I like most of the designs even though there is a lot of a similar color palette. But the jiggle physics are too much IMO, especially characters like Yinlin, she looks good, she doesn't need to have perpetual motion boobs spinning while she stands still. If the onigiri pants were too much I think they need to realize a lot of us find the insane physics distracting too. I do kind of hope the designs stray more from Genshin and other games with characters like Calcharo. Some of the designs are so close to Genshin characters they feel more like Hoyoverse characters than some actual Hoyoverse expy characters.

In my opinion, I like the color palette in WuWa. With the setting of the game, the designs to me really fit in with the aesthetic. We all know this game is a competitor to Genshin, so this more "mature" style is a way WuWa can differentiate itself with Genshin's more "anime" characters. I do not read manga nor manhua, but I feel like that is a good comparison here. _"Normal"_ manga is much more stylistic than those _"mature looking"_ manhua videos I see on TikTok +The current team I am running is Calcharo, Sanhua, and Baizhi. All these characters have that black/white/gold color scheme which I absolutely love. The least visually appealing character to me is Verina. + The muted red WuWa decided to add for their characters (Danjin, Chixia, Yinlin, Changli, Moretefi) and dark blues (Jiyan, Yuanwu, Yangyang) is super nice to me! - These less poppy colors help balance the physically eye catching outfits the characters have. + the future team comp Jinhsi, Sanhua, and Baizhi would look divine + how dare you dislike Jianxin's design (understandable argument though)

Encore doesnt have "white hair", it's wool, or "sheep hair"? Idk what u call it in English. She has mutations like many other characters (hard to miss with the ram horns in her ultimate). I understand not liking them but it's honestly the only indicator of her mutation outside combat so I thinks its fine. I didn't even notice it at the beginning.

The black, white, and red seems to be a motif probably related to the little story Scar gives you upon meeting him. Lots of black, white, and red in that story too. Not sure where the green and blue from Verina, Yuanwu, etc., come into play though if any.

I kinda disagree as the muted color is very common in this setting. It also helps make any bright colors like skills and burst stand out. If it does add more bright colors, it would be harder to see the parry mechanic. On itself it does look monotone and dull but it does work very well with this game, but in a game like genshin it wouldn't work as well.

Basically this yeah, the art style should not clash upon itself but also not upon the game. I still play Genshin and Tower of Fantasy along with WuWa and holy bajeezus ToF had a time where they NEEDED to clean up the visual clutter from the start of design. It looks really cool but most times I just aim where I see damage numbers because I can't see anything. Having a function to just lower the effects opacity is not a good solution. Fortunately newer characters did not suffer that disastrous decision and started to look more clean like Genshin.

I feel the opposite, one thing that I disliked about Genshin is the characters are all wearing bright and colorful clothes, almost feels like a childish competition of who can stand out the most. I like the color palette in WuWa because it feels more mature and calm. It's rare to see a game with this many characters wearing mostly black, I love it.

Parts of the game world are totally messed up have had the literal colour sucked out of them. So there’s an overall identity across both the world and characters that I really appreciate.

To give more clearance - Kokomi is not a General btw, General is Goro and he is not originally a military guy, but he began leading the rebellion, Kokomi is a Priestess of Watatsumi Shrine and her design is literally telling her story and even story of her bloodline, that forcefully made her a Priestess (no more spoilers), even when she did not want to... So Kokomi should have no details that pointing that she is some sort of General, cos she is not one and she is not a leader of an army......... Pope in Crusade wars did not wear any specific uniform that points that he is a head of entire army. P.S. - Goro's design references the Jokyo Sodo and Shimabara rebellions and have a lot of from Tsukiyomi-no-mikoto and his outfit is shozoku and he wears tekko, hakama, and kyahan, so sorry, but ironically Goro have one of the most realistic designs in the game to real history..... 🤷‍♂

She just ain't a degenerate like u guys

I think its because they plan to release skins for the characters like they do in PGR. Hopefully they release skins more frequently than a certain game.

The issue with WuWa designs for me is that the white/black and their mid-tones are just that. Pure grey, pure black, pure white and no undertones. Same goes for their actual "accent" colors. They're just a solid, saturated and non-interesting primary color for the most part, making it all seem pretty boring. Which is why characters like Encore and Verina stand out more, they have subtle shade differences and not just fully saturated, pure red or yellow as their only actual colors. They also have slightly different shades and hues in their design, not just one that turns a little bit darker in some places but is still overall the same color. WuWa has a severe color pallette issue when overall their designs are pretty solid.

I enjoy wuwa character designs but yea, the muted color palette is takijg a toll on me xD. Thank god my main tema is Jiyan and Verina tho, i can see that beautiful green everyday

It makes them fit into the world they are in, and since it's another gacha they have to make a lot of characters to sell on the banners. So they will end up with so more colourful designs sooner or later anyway. The option to make your own character is definitely missing again, but at least i can find some design i like in wuwa. When i played genshin i really tried to like at least one of the character designs there, but not a single one ever managed it, they are all just overloaded impractical designs, that don't even fit into the overly bright (and weird scale) world of that game.

we need a character with a purple pallet badly or a green one

I'm bias because i love black and white color palette, but i really like the designs, they can mix together if you try. As an example my team is Lingyang, Sushua and Verina. In my gameplay i see white (lingyang hair and clothing), black (sushua clothing), yellow/green (verina hair) and light blue for the ice. In a vacuum they mix together, but on gameplay is different. Using almost the same color palette can make someone focus on the In the differences of each character.

That's a good point! With a party of three you may not see this come into play often. My main party is Rover, Encore, and Verina and there's plenty of balance in there too. Much respect for Lingyang! :D

lowkey i feel like encore's white hair tufts make her look a little bit like a sheep herself for some reason LOL and that's really cute to me, so i'm gonna have to disagree with that critique personally. good review otherwise.

I dont mind the limited coloro for the outfit. But what i know from Kuro is that they are really good when it comes to mixing hair color for character. For example: Changli

I like that they are trying to adhere to a certain aesthetic and I'm all for it, but it doesn't have to be only black and white, they could use a wide range of other muted colors and include some bright details

When it comes to balancing details of a character between the top and bottom, is a situation that would pertain to vtuber models. If it is bottom heavy, the model will look too simple because 99% of the time you only see the top half, but if you put detail on both parts, it can become overcrowded. Luckily it's a 3d character model so you can do either. One important thing to note is that each character designs at least by my interpretation, doesn't focus on individuality but culture, clothing trends and profession, which makes not the characters individually unique, but communally unique (such as people from different factions, areas, etc). We'll be getting more and more of the world unlocked, so it will be easier to differentiate between characters, also Kuro's previous game, PGR, their designs become more unique while still upholding the black/white aspect. It includes the enemies. -Danjin main

Kuro being Kuro~ like their Red/White/Black combination like Punishing Gray Raven characters designs. it's pro for me though, since it's my preference.

I like techwear rather than grandma pants lol

I actually quite like the mute palette. Idk why but I think they're good to look at.

I agree. Color pallette wise its been very muted and in the entire plot line its only been actually Chixia, Encore and Verina that sort of gibe that vibrant vibe in the entire landscape of things...most of the map is also following this drab, muted look so there hasn't been any real location on the map that has stuck to me as memorable so far..

I love wuthering waves designs. They look more mature imo

About Kokomi... She's more priestess than leader of an army. This is why she's wearing priestess's clothes.

Interesting Insight 11:00 her design is a work of art 12:25 her design scream to her enemies "you are going to have your as kicked; you will lose"

Just wanna talk about how most of these designs don't make any sense at all as clothes or outfits--to the point where most of them look AI-designed, then real artists cleaned up the generated concepts. Chixia is easily the biggest offender, just mentally imagining what it's like to put on or take off her outfit is a headache and actually examining her clothes reveals they make NO physical sense. Her top is made of three completely separate garments, she's wearing half of a jacket, and the thing around her waist isn't even a shirt or coat--it just looks like one. Jiyan also only has half a coat with the illusion that it's folded up and every segment of Yinlin's design is inconsistent. Game looks absolutely gorgeous, but I would be surprised if all of the designs were made by real people.

When you hear Genshin's music right of a bat, in a video about a different game... you know what's the real problem for these people.

Honestly I prefer wuwa’s designs so much more, (and I say this in the perspective of an artist) for the simple fact they aren’t overstimulating for the eyes, compared to other games and I’ll use genshin as an example, I don’t think they want the characters to stand out more than the others since the designs follow the fashion trends of Jinzhou , culture, as well as the utilities of their clothes. And I honestly thought that these characters have less color variety than Genshin characters, but after analyzing, they actually have the same or even more variety, since Genshin normally doesn’t use different colors, they use one color with different tonalities as a way to stand out more, also, Genshin characters require very recognizable shaped characters since most of their models are the same, while wuwa has slightly different models for every character, which differences to every character. You can take dynamic as well, most of wuwa characters have triangle shaped or circled shaped clothing or proportions which has a huge impact in humans eyes. So even if people think there’s no variety then idk maybe it’s personal preference, I like the monotone characters cuz it’s a apocalyptic setting (and I use glasses too so bright colors aren’t a friend of mine) 😭😭

I personally really like the character designs and prefer them iver genshin. The design fit with the setting they are in and also make the overall vibe more mature wich i always appreciate. Genshin design is amazing aswell obviously but having a genshin color pallete to a lot of characters in wuwa would ruin the mood in my opinion. I guess it's just depense in the person, some really like colorful design and a diverse color pallete in a colorfull fantasy world. While some preferr more down to eath design/color pallettes that feels more mature I would also like to defend the monk gilr design(i forgot her name) since her whole thing is yin and yang

i agree with your opinion on the black/white/gold overuse, but i think the strongest usage of it is in the male rover. i really like his design! my biggest problem though is i have trouble discerning some of the pc characters from npcs, though i think its more a fault of the 3d models than it is of the designs themselves. i'm sorry but lowkey thought mortefi was an npc until i pulled him in gacha, and yuanwu's 3d model isnt doing him many favors either

LMAO I love genshins OST and I thought it would be funny. You hit my thoughts exactly. Love the designs but some more variety would be nice!

I think having a design motif is what makes wuwa designs so much better than other gacha games. Say Genshin or even HSR makes me feel like i'm playing fortnite Goku vs Lebron James vs Sonic and Knuckles shooting ak47s and shotguns and skateboarding on rockets. Every character feels so out of place and goofy. It's impossible to take anything seriously. Even just casual chats are the goofiest things ever, because the designs are so out of place from the world. In wuwa while it's obvious who the playable characters are, and Jiyan is pretty out of place (not as out of place as hoyoverse characters ofc), but like you said he at least feels like his role as a general, and everyone else seems normal-ish. And it helps that Jiyan's design is very cool on its own. I'm super happy you liked male rover and yuanwu's designs. They're probably not going to the be the most popular cosplays, but I also think they're good designs that fit in the world

Personally i really like the black and white being incorporated into a lot of the designes i do think that Baizhi and Jinxun look too similar unless its revealed that they are related, but i still like both of theur designes. For the most part, to me the black and white and a third colour work to make the characters feel like they are a part of a cohesive organization and the overall design help make these characters feep like actual people. For me genshin does have good designes but they are way too busy and way too colourful. This more muted desugne is a lot more pleasant to my eyes and reminds me of a lot of my favorite anime like Bleach, JJK, Akame ga kill and Fate stay night, whereas genshin reminds me more of Salor Moon, Madoka Magica, MHA and Konosuba. Also i totaly agree for female rover. I see so many saying shes like the best famle mc in gatcha gaming but im just not seeing it

Danjin is a blood mage sword user Before her personality rework she was a bloodthirsty psycho justice gal Now she's just a justice gal

I actully think the black white color pallete is great. It really fits into the kinda post apocalyptic vibe theyre going for and i think if they added a character with a color pallete that you whould see in genshin they whould look out of place. This is why i think verina looks kinda weird and like she shouldnt be in this game like she belongs somewhere else

Honestly I don’t focus on Role-play games, so I don’t really have any opinions about Wuthering wave’s characters

Verina's design may differ because she came from a different region.

That's what I was thinking! I wonder as the game progresses if we may see more designs like hers, but I'm hearing that this palette is a preference of Kuro Games so we shall see!

I used to think WuWa character designs and color schemes were boring but when I played the game, I realized they fit in the the post apocalyptic spooky theme of the game so well. This is primarily my fault though, I kept benchmarking genshin character designs for WuWa character designs and I was wrong. Now I prefer WuWa character designs over Genshin character designs especially after the 1.1 character leaks. I prefer the more realistic and proportional body parts of WuWa.

I personally really like the design. It's not a "bright" world and it won't be for a while so i think it's fitting.

Thigh highs save lives 😂

It's based on Feng Shui.

I hate colorful characters like genshin, were different in taste of color, i like dark and white more on a character outfit, only hair, eyes, skins i like colorful

idk why people are disagreeing so much, I get this issue and almost no one talks about it. There is no problem is using muted colors, the problem is using the same color palette over such a huge percentage of characters. It would be fine if they used black + white + gold on 1 or 2 characters, but they used it on a lot of characters. Maybe they can try using different tones of black and white, and some other secondary color.

Completely disagree on Jianxin. People try to down play her in the meta, and now this?! Blasphemy!! Justice for Monk Bae

I think a GENUINE PROBLEM in the design of these characters is pandering. It is not equally done. Everything feels done FROM or FOR the male gaze, especially the exposure of female designs and restriction of male designs. Just compare female vs male rover-we all know who looks more interesting. The most skin exposure you have on the males is Mortefi’s unbuttoned shirt and Jiyan’s freakin armpit. They took away Scar’s interesting jumpsuit (I agree the onigiri strip was a bit distracting even tho I liked it) but now he is stuff covered neck to toe with a stupid button up shirt and boring cargo pants-like all. the. other. Men 🙃. I’m fine with sex-appeal as long as it done equally. I’m loving withering waves but it is not being fair in this regard. I think female/queer gaze matters just as much as the males and they’d probably make more money if they pandered equally.

Agree with most of what you said specifically about the Rovers, budget Kirito over over rated female rover anyway. Even though I like chalcharo design I wish they added more purple to him.

I first picked female Rover but after seeing her in cutscenese and going "Jesus, why is she so damn hot", i switch to male MC because i wouldn't be able to focus on the story.

Asymmetrical designs are disturbing; when done excessively, for example look at how bad destiny 2 Warlock amor is; it really sucks The only time asymmetrical design in excessive make sense, are things like spaceships, and torrents and some weapon like flame launchers vehicles; because the nature of them potentially has not only a design choice, but also a functional choice; what I mean excessive asymmetrical makes sense almost always on these things; with proper application still needed functionality will greatly override athletics, trends, styles etc., simplicity, enhances comfortability, and tones and shade/light, greatly enhances the visual appeal. patterns well done greatly override texture resolution

This is the reason I decided to play Zenless zone zero over Wuthering waves. ZZZ has a fricking bear 😭

Personally i grew bored of these types of designs in games..not the color palette but the textureless confusing clothes, with the weirdest zipper/button placing and unnecessary out of character revealing clothes. part of what drove me away from genshin is character designs and this one followed, as fun as wuwa is I couldn’t handle seeing the designs, almost all of them, apart from some..and even those i thought of some little preferable changes for them. wish more game companies experiment with their designs and go wild with them, they’re almost always playing it safe with those boring unimaginative same ideas. I really need to see more armor, more lore fitting clothes, more diverse designs!! Those futuristic china inspired designs specially in wuwa aren’t working at all imo

disclaimer I never played the game, but from just visuals I think that WW's character design have quite some problem, expecially the color palette. Tooooooo much characters have large area of black, I know the world building is dark but making everything look black still....it makes the characters "feel" too similar by just visual. Second, most color palettes in WW makes me feel like there isn't a focus, I don't know how to explain this in short, I feel like the characters lack some primary attraction and isn't memorable, for me a good design should be like an apple between the leaves, but WW's give me the feeling of just a pile of leaves, they should “have something” that catch people's eyes in the first glance. Also as said in the video of the overly repeatability of color palette, these designs might look good independently, but when standing together they feel too similar. It's like the only color thay can think out of, excluding black white gold, are only red red, blue blue, and pink, the colors' variation isn't enough, your game just started and you already have four characters with red hair and black n white clothes. Black IS the best balancing color to be use in designs, along with white, but WW's over using of large area of black annoys me. Also they don't use any contrasting colors to make things pop up (this might be a very personal opinion but I think the clash of well balanced contrasting colors are like sweet desserts, something like Navia (gold+blue) and Kuki (green+purple) from Genshin) Okok I'm talking too much on colors, another problem I have with WW's design is the characters lack a "theme" for me, Encore have the best design in the game imo, her theme is sheep obviously, and a some don't have much problem, Verina's can be connected to nature, Lingyang is lion dance, Jianxin is YinYang, but then the other are just like "some sorta human" to me. For now what I seen the only designs I think are good are the two lolis, maybe due to they are the only two with vibrant colors that makes them stand out the most lol. (ps: these are all just my opinion, if you are into WW's designs it's nothing really wrong about it) (edit: corrected some sentences' arrangement)

Scar is worse than paimon

i feel like they are just thirst trapping us with the black and white tight, revealing clothes, but honestly that only works if there aren’t as many characters like that… the designs are so similar that it kinda pushes me away, and the only character i’m waiting for is Scar, since he’s unique (tho also has black and white in his design)

Honestly, for me WW's designs of everything are bland. Everything is forgettable. I dunno, maybe they holding back something berrer to be released in the future, who knows.

they sexualize characters alot the honkai star rail team is good at balancing everything in designs

sadly sexualizing characters is literally necessary if you want the game to succeed. Quite a few hsr characters are designed for fan service as well

@@staarfall5317 gacha games sell based on sex appeal 80% of the time. theres a reason female banners sell better usually in gacha games. There's a reason Yinlin broke the store on release for 17 minutes lmao

Is the sexualization in the room with us right now?

I like that they are trying to adhere to a certain aesthetic and I'm all for it, but it doesn't have to be only black and white, they could use a wide range of other muted colors and include some bright details
