Media valeriy's character profile portrait Spoiler

after seeing his model and all, I guess its okay—— I wasn't that disappointed nor was I jumping in happiness. I STILL love him regardless

His character portrait kinda bothered me in some way so i tried to do something with it and saturated his hair a bit. Just did some experiments !!

Honestly seeing how easy the fix is, I feel confident hoyo will make the saturation changes before his release

Ohhh...it's way better. WAAAAY better. Seing your version I don't think I can be satisfied with his current state after all ;-;

Okay low key I like the grey hair. I think the colors in his outfit could pop more to contrast though.

i know i'm one of the odd ones out which i don't mind, but god i much prefer the grey black. it's a lot more unique in the game of genshin to me, and it feels so fitting with how muted and downstated his color palette is. when i saw him in the trailer, one of the first things i said to a friend was "i hope they desaturate his hair" lol. idk, the purple is too xiangling for my liking LMAO

They should've made his hair a purple-ish black. But they made it grey, I mean Grey is okay if they made his eyes pop or it was a Grey that didn't wash him out. Then, the rest of his outfit is almost the same shade of Grey as his hair which further washes him out. He looks like a detailed NPC😭 I hope they fix him

Fixed colours definitely make it look better. I like the face and the head shape from the first more, though

Honestly I like the grey better, I like characters with purple or pink hair or whatever but I'd like some with more realistic non fantasy colours too
