100% agree but the mods won’t do anything about it. All the toxicity posts are just the same low-effort rehash complaining about someone calling them bad at the game.

In fact, I’d say 95% of the toxicity in this game comes down to people calling each other bad. Very rarely is it actual hate speech. Just mute, report, block, and move on. No need to flood the subreddit with shit posts.

Hey! We do have a rule about rants and general match complaints, but we do miss stuff so if you see it, please report! We allow constructive discussion but just complaints aren't generally allowed.

The reasons vary but it ranges from:

1) it makes Catholic nuns look slutty, which defeats the point of a nun (even though it's based on Warrior Nun, but that got complaints from real nuns) as they're meant to look plain vs showing off. Even has the collar bit and the cross to emphasise the point it's Christian and not entirely fantastical. I guess the point here is it was seen as disrespectful that sort of stuff is fair game to lewd vs stuff like Kali

2) It's Nuwa wearing Catholic-fantasy garb, which can be insulting if you were from China and your creator goddess is repping Monotheism

3) Seen as fanservice, but there's queries it's aimed at a specific fetish, which raises questions. Nuwa also has another one of skins like these (the Playbunny)

Sure, I can see where you're coming from, and I don't think you're gonna be downvoted or that you should be downvoted.

Now ofc this is just my opinion, but here goes:

1) Yeah, when it comes to depicting a real nun, this skin can obviously come as offensive. However, this skin isn't the first (or last) to depict a 'slutty' nun, that has been a common trope in a lot of animations and video games, often tied closely with slutty maids, hence the combo for the BP. I mostly enjoy this skin due to ability effects, but generally consider that this isn't a direct jab at Christianity and isn't that big of a deal, as Kali shouldn't have been.

2) I feel like this point can be raised for A LOT of other skins in game - mostly cross pantheon ones. Realistically, devout followers of X religion would hate if their God was depicted as from another religion, and would consider it blasphemy. That also extends to some skins in game that don't fit that mold but can also be consid...
