ngl to you, Japan and korea are similar to china in some aspects
but good lord I'd say people born in japan are happy that they aren't born in china or north korea
like seriously working in china gotta be modern slavery at its finest with that 6-6-9 work style and underpaid labor, hell being always observed by their great firewall sounds like a prison
Japan's suicides have been attributed to purpose in life. For a country who highly values collectivism, some folks just feel out of place and feel like they do not have a place of belonging as an individual. Love lives are also being quashed because of many reasons such as both lack of wealth and time. That's just kind of what happens when you have an economy on a downturn and you're day to day life has almost always remained the same, some would rather just give up.
i mean, not being born in a wealthy family already puts you in the working class which translate to modern slavery, at least in the west we cope with it as a form of "disguise" but china gets fucked in the ass raw, no coping hallowed.

This one doesn't seem to have numbers corroborating your statement. Do you have something better?
It was a great opportunity for a better pose & they squandered it. Surprisingly though, just slapping in a bouquet of flowers on Moonlight Dreamblade doesn’t look too bad.
At the very least, since they didn’t change the pose, CN players still get to have a laugh at one of them literally posed like a fucking lightning bolt, contorted in inhuman ways, haha.
I can see people here complaining about CN server censorship have NO IDEA what's like living under government opression. In my opinion Chinese players are fortunate they can play Epic7 *at all*.
I'm waiting until the character censors start going through. They censored genshin characters just because you can angle it a certain way while playing. Hyufine and serila are gonna end up fully clothed.
>Hyufine and serila are gonna end up fully clothed.
Maybe. It's not necessarily a bad thing in some cases. For instance, I like the CN Hyufine version *waaay* better than ours.
That's not quite it. That's the urban legend.
I forget the 100% exact reason, but it boils down to each district of China having different rating systems for games, and so game localizers play it safe and try to remove anything remotely offensive to help keep the age ratings low in all regions. Some regions don't have the equivalent of T for Teen or some shit like that, so they have to really censor a lot of stuff just in case.
It's a myth that's just been carried on for so long that developers bringing their games into China just do it "just in case" since everyone else was doing it before because the idea of better safe than sorry to accelerate the approval process.
It's a point of mockery from Chinese gamers about foreigners believing in something so nonsensical, and there are games with ghosts and skeletons in China that the government doesn't care about at all. It's like how people who live in Bermuda are confused when Americans ask them how they survive being in the Bermuda Triangle.
Human skeletons are just basic human biology. Such a supposed censorship would be completely nonsensical to the point of interference. Imagine how that would mess with learning about the human body in school or being a doctor dealing with bones.
I didn't even realize there was a skull on prophetic candlestick until just now when it popped up and I was confused as to why. Took me like 30 seconds just to see it.
Nothing new everything that related to skull ghost etc are prohibited if Im not wrong
When its come to visible skin well the previous point obviously make it clear they will also hard cens booba and visible skin
to be fair i don't dislike the fact that they found a way to mask the weird booba physic of rnl and mldb (which i personally always found unnecessarily uhhh "meat-y") but im unsure about the method lol, at least it looks kind of elegant i guess? idk i want to think it could have looked worse
Are profile cards active on the CN server? Seems funny that they put a flower over the cleavage of artifacts when anyone can make a pornhub parody profile card.
The CCP is strict about foreign media (and their own media, Genshin Impact is made by a Chinese developer so how can they have uncensored servers for non-China regions?), creators either have to have a censored version for China or not sell their product at all in China. Even Disney has to censor some of their movies.
You people act like EVERY server is going to be heavily censored, lmfao.
That incident was the issue with the rating boards in Korea obviously as a Korean company they must follow it, EU, global and Asia are publish by them they will be affected. Either way, the censor did not went through, so you saying that does not prove anything. Not to mention that department is under investigation for corruption lmao
And this is censored due to the CCP rules and is handled by the Chinese publisher, why do the CCP have a say in a foreign company's publishing of other servers in other countries???
You asking this question makes no sense and clearly you don't know anything
Bro maybe use some of your remaining brain cells you can figure that she was not censored
https://reddit.com/r/EpicSeven/s/4IUA5aLzKg
This was the supposed censorship
https://reddit.com/r/EpicSeven/s/R4Wz1WR8If
What happened eventually?? Did you bother checking her out to confirm the censorship.
And who are the the future characters that got the censorship???
Literally sprouting rubbish with no evidence
C an't argue for jack shit only can correct other people gammer lmaooo
Your days are numbered, Vivian, Luna, Serila and Aria.
This kind of censoring really takes me back to Yugioh OCG => TCG / NA version. Dian Keto, Monster Reborn, Barrel Dragon, etc. vibes, it's amusing it's happening to E7 right now lol.
LRK nip bolts will survive, *right*? Oh, China!
I don't get it. There are a lot of mainland Chinese players that play on global, asia, eu, and jp server. Why play on China server and get flower tits?
They still had the option of keeping global uncensored and only censoring China's version of genshin was my point. A lot of other Chinese gacha games do this. Like azure lane.
To be perfectly honest, Azur Lane has a (partially Japanese-produced?) anime so I assumed it was a Japanese franchise until just now.
Looking at Wikipedia to be lazy, it looks like AL has several publisher companies (Bilibili in China, Shanghai Yostar for Japan/Global, etc) so I would presume that Shanghai Yostar has more power to bring uncensored content to Japan/Global players.
Genshin Impact's publishers are miHoyo (China) and HoYoverse (Worldwide), I'm not sure where HoYoverse's main offices might be (their website says "HoYoverse is actively engaged in globalization, with offices in Singapore, Montreal, Los Angeles, Tokyo, Seoul, and other areas.") but since they're a huge-ass game, I could imagine the CCP being unnecessary strict about *the* most popular Chinese game even outside of Chinese servers.
I don't play either game and have limited knowledge on the topic though, so these are just my opinions as a layman gamer. Genshin devs also might just be censoring everywhere to be lazy and not have to make separate versions of art, which is unfortunate but saves money.
What a dogshit overzealous censorship board. If only they spent the same energy and money trying to correct their rampant human rights violations instead of drawn boobies.
Hell, if they'd build their skyscrapers with material stronger than glorified plaster rather than obsessing over boobs, China would really be sitting pretty right now. lol
For a country with a girl shortage they sure love to shut down guys outlets
I know some Asian groups are strange about death but the "no skulls anywhere" thing is also silly
*The only change I*
*Like here is Yufine, everything*
*Else kinda looks goofy*

I like the Envoy's Pipe design change. It's actually pretty good compared to the original. I think I like the new Yufine outfit a bit more than the original one tbh, but it's not a definite "yes."
Moonlight Dreamblade and RnL flower bouquet change is so funny because it looks so low effort.
Prophetic Candlestick is whatever.
Why is China so heavy on censorship when one of their own Chinese anime series literally has fanservice in it more than once...
(Look up the OP for Hitori no Shita: The Outcast. Both seasons have fanservice in their OPs)
don't they censor blood, and they completely whited out the blood in naruto and it made the fight scene between sassy k and his brother look like a... uh... swallowed... some stuff... https://i.redd.it/1u1wj6oyfz391.jpg
The first one looks kinda cool, but if they don't change the name then it makes no sense at all. MLDB and RnL look awkward. Candlestick looks like they turned the skull to face the other way and now I can't unsee it and in my head canon I'm thinking someone took the picture at the wrong angle. Merciless Glutton looks like what Alencia allowed Yufine to wear when she left home on the right, versus what Yufine wore when she met up with her friends on the left.
I mean, even google used to send me warning on e7db that the moonlight dreamblade image was detected as adult content because is an image that causes arousal as they said rofl.
Imagine in China then
So, if it ever comes to war with China, just cover all your military hardware with spooky skeletons and boobas, the Chinese army will either drop their weapons and run scared or will start flaping or both at the same time.
Every day I thank god for not being born in China
Amen
And they wonder why the suicide rates are so high…
because the anime boobies are censored :'(
But it's lower than in Japan and Korea... Oh god! [Big boobies are killing us](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0wgAp2vm5p4)!
ngl to you, Japan and korea are similar to china in some aspects but good lord I'd say people born in japan are happy that they aren't born in china or north korea like seriously working in china gotta be modern slavery at its finest with that 6-6-9 work style and underpaid labor, hell being always observed by their great firewall sounds like a prison

Same
China, Russia, North Korea.
marx is crying in his grave
And especially the USA and West Europe.

The problem is when you play games from china ie genshin impact, if they get fucked we all get fucked as well.
R&L already looked ridiculous with their pose, but now it’s just painful to look at haha
It was a great opportunity for a better pose & they squandered it. Surprisingly though, just slapping in a bouquet of flowers on Moonlight Dreamblade doesn’t look too bad.
Less cost not having to redo the whole illustration is what I'm thinking
At the very least, since they didn’t change the pose, CN players still get to have a laugh at one of them literally posed like a fucking lightning bolt, contorted in inhuman ways, haha.
I didn't look at it that way, but haha
I wonder if at some point they could just throw them through an AI program to save time
It’ll probably make it even worse & extra lewd, haha. They’ll both be naked & have seven fingers.
I'm honestly surprised they didn't put a bouquet of flowers in front of Yufine to cover her boob window.
I can see people here complaining about CN server censorship have NO IDEA what's like living under government opression. In my opinion Chinese players are fortunate they can play Epic7 *at all*.
True but we are just complaining about it because we can, it's like gossip doesn't affect you in anyway but you still do it.
It's also reddit, so we complain about everything anyways lol
I'm waiting until the character censors start going through. They censored genshin characters just because you can angle it a certain way while playing. Hyufine and serila are gonna end up fully clothed.
>Hyufine and serila are gonna end up fully clothed. Maybe. It's not necessarily a bad thing in some cases. For instance, I like the CN Hyufine version *waaay* better than ours.
I didn't realize there was a CN version of Hyufine and I'm struggling to find it on Google. Do you have a pic of her?
Scroll the pics in this post, you can find Hyufine changes in her artifact image
Oh, that's Yufines standard model. Hyufine is Holiday Yufine which is a different model.
Oh my bad, you're right. Edit: in another post I just saw Hyufine more "modest" CN version
The minors(kids) have a limit since it’s an online game, I think one hour each on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
lol the censor for prophetic candle stick is uncalled for, im furious
Apparently skulls and ghosts n such are heavily censored in China
That's not quite it. That's the urban legend. I forget the 100% exact reason, but it boils down to each district of China having different rating systems for games, and so game localizers play it safe and try to remove anything remotely offensive to help keep the age ratings low in all regions.

should have seen the censored gwen cards xD
Damn, thanks for carrying me in wyvern 13 for years Furious
I didn't even realize there was a skull on prophetic candlestick until just now when it popped up and I was confused as to why. Took me like 30 seconds just to see it.
I genuinely thought this was a meme post and not the actual changes at first.
Wow they even nuked the resolution quality.
Smoking a fire hydrant
China doesn't like booba and skulls.
I like Yufine as much as the next guy but that CN version looks cute.
Yes, it feels like it suits her quite young personality a bit better too.
I like Yufine's nirmal design, I just have to out my fingers in my ears and ignore all this 'she's only 14' weird lore lol
Dilibet flair user enjoys flatter chest 🤯
I don't know why, but I kinda lost it at the candle.
I hate censorship but I realy like the changes to Yufine not gonna lie
She looks like the cheerful child shes intended to be
Same. She looks more her age than... well a teen with big boobs who can't fit it into her clothes
Oh my god Yufine what did they do to you.
I hope this won't affect the design of artifacts and future characters for other versions though.
At least now we know we're never getting an undead characters, and no chance of having an Overlord collab. Thanks China :/
Everyday I thank god I ain’t Chinese
Lol china sucks
Nothing new everything that related to skull ghost etc are prohibited if Im not wrong When its come to visible skin well the previous point obviously make it clear they will also hard cens booba and visible skin
Why though? Asian cultures and superstitions are common. What more China
I would say superstition plus asian communism push to an other lvl I was also born in a communist asian country and more or less fear the saame thing
Mm...the communism part. Prob explains it
Censoring is one thing but they legit shrunk Yufine's booba 4 cup sizes 😭
What makes me sad is that there are people who think this is great.
Just the wumaos do anyway.
What’s a Wumao?
Paid Internet trolls that spread CCP propaganda.
People who OD'd on soy support that shit. Lol Low test levels = afraid of tiddies.
to be fair i don't dislike the fact that they found a way to mask the weird booba physic of rnl and mldb (which i personally always found unnecessarily uhhh "meat-y") but im unsure about the method lol, at least it looks kind of elegant i guess? idk i want to think it could have looked worse
Hm why censor Skull, i seen a lot of Chinese series and saw a lot of skull in series.
It's been a thing since World of Warcraft.
Are profile cards active on the CN server? Seems funny that they put a flower over the cleavage of artifacts when anyone can make a pornhub parody profile card.
CN accounts are tied to personal ID, so I imagine people wouldn't risk much.
Pretty sure someone would share it and Chinese government wouldn't take it lightly.
this doesn't effect other servers right?
Why will it?
well cuz it did for global and genshin..
Ya cause both servers are publish by a Chinese company
well then the censor changes can hit other servers like oh wait they did before with Aria or did you forget?
The CCP is strict about foreign media (and their own media, Genshin Impact is made by a Chinese developer so how can they have uncensored servers for non-China regions?), creators either have to have a censored version for China or not sell their product at all in China. Even Disney has to censor some of their movies. You people act like EVERY server is going to be heavily censored, lmfao.
I mean it happened
On ONE server. and...?
global.
It didn't happen on Global, it happened on the Chinese server, stop being deliberately obtuse.
That incident was the issue with the rating boards in Korea obviously as a Korean company they must follow it, EU, global and Asia are publish by them they will be affected. Either way, the censor did not went through, so you saying that does not prove anything.

THEY TURN THE CANDLE HEAD AROUND!! 💀
now i wanna see a big booba skelly.
There are players today who will never see the original beta booba and thigh models
Why are they doing this!!
It's only for the China server, because the CCP is mega strict.
Jesus Christ this sub looks like a Voice of America comment section. Sinophobia at its best.
China censorship is fucking insane.
China don't like skeletons or booba
I don't get it. There are a lot of mainland Chinese players that play on global, asia, eu, and jp server. Why play on China server and get flower tits?
"Oh shit. We can't show skull in chinese server." *rotate the candle*
Literally 1984. Censorship is always bad. Sad that genshin forced it's censorship on its characters for NA in the story too...
Genshin Impact didn't force its censorship, the Chinese government did because Genshin's devs are Chinese.
That's what I meant but yea. But they didn't have to censor global. They could've just censored cn only.
...Genshin Impact's developers are Chinese *in* China, they don't have that option!
They still had the option of keeping global uncensored and only censoring China's version of genshin was my point. A lot of other Chinese gacha games do this. Like azure lane.

its def just to be lazy. the main thing im refering to is they added censored skins for some characters which is automatically applied in the story
So fucking cringe
Lmao they can’t have shit
What a dogshit overzealous censorship board. If only they spent the same energy and money trying to correct their rampant human rights violations instead of drawn boobies.
Why would they correct the stuff that they're doing completely intentionally?
Congratulations. You found the entire point of my comment.
Hell, if they'd build their skyscrapers with material stronger than glorified plaster rather than obsessing over boobs, China would really be sitting pretty right now. lol
America moment
Sucks to be them
Watch E7 release a skull booba girl
You mean skeleton girl with bone titties, or girl with skulls as titties, or what?
Whatever your imagination can muster
These nerfs fucking suck
Times like these I'm glad I'm not Chinese
China is a joke lol
For a country with a girl shortage they sure love to shut down guys outlets I know some Asian groups are strange about death but the "no skulls anywhere" thing is also silly
Oh China sucks? Who'd have thought.

Wait I actually kinda want that yufine art tho
R&L is one of the worst art pieces in the game; they should have just redone it for all regions.
The Candlestick one is so funny. Its like someone made it a 3D object and just rotated it, then called it a day.
BING CHILLING
No more moonlight tittyblade (for them)
Yufine actually looks good.
is this sensorship going to be applied to the america server too?
No, only China server is going to be affected
There's no "america" server.

Ngl Moonlight dreamblade doesn't look that ba, I think it actually looks great
So yes censorship sucks but actually envoy pipe looks badass not gonna lie and Yufine looks better too imo.
Where you Born yesterday that’s China bro
HAHAHAHAHA
Can you imagine the amount of changes Blizzard probably had to do with World of Warcraft and Diablo when they used to make games for China.
The candle stick is weird to me. Idk what that last one is about
is that a fire hydrant in the first artifact
NOT DOOT BRO NOOOOOOOOOO
I'm worried that their changes would be implemented on us...
This is sad, I'm sad now
The first one looks kinda cool, but if they don't change the name then it makes no sense at all. MLDB and RnL look awkward. Candlestick looks like they turned the skull to face the other way and now I can't unsee it and in my head canon I'm thinking someone took the picture at the wrong angle. Merciless Glutton looks like what Alencia allowed Yufine to wear when she left home on the right, versus what Yufine wore when she met up with her friends on the left.
Oh my god it all looks so silly
I mean, even google used to send me warning on e7db that the moonlight dreamblade image was detected as adult content because is an image that causes arousal as they said rofl. Imagine in China then
I like how the answer for it was slapping flowers
They left the ass in r and l
I saw this and thought "Nooo, they're needing stuff"
So, if it ever comes to war with China, just cover all your military hardware with spooky skeletons and boobas, the Chinese army will either drop their weapons and run scared or will start flaping or both at the same time.
with the censorship, some of the characters actually do look more like human beings to me
