Oops. Guess dark complexion was a mistake (despite making sense in the biome they are part of)
Was meant to be a more sarcastic tone, sorry for any confusion.
Japan has a real issue with Black characters (and many they do include exude so many negative stereotypes)
Wait i just looked this up.......wow.doesn't surprise me. They made 2P white in the Nier raids in FFXIV too.
It's Akihiko Yoshida's artworks for these games, it doesn't have to mean anything in regards to the actual game.

Why? From what I remember Fyra was not native to the region so it makes sense.
But I do agree that multiple Japanese Devs struggle with darker and more feminine charactersWhy? From what I remember Fyra was not native to the region so it makes sense.

Still I don't see the problem, I like the contrast between the characters. She Is different and should be different for story purposeBut she wasn't lily white like all of the new artwork is making her seem. She was tan.

I see the beauty in this change, the more different she is from the sangpeople, the more respected I feel about the way the sandpeople and Prince treat her, and she has other body problems too but I'll be quit for spoiler, loved the originalThere was still a difference between their skin tones. That doesn't mean that they need to suddenly make her pale white. It doesn't matter that she isn't from that region. She still was tan in the original game.

I'll wait to see the in-game models. Everything in the new concept art looks washed out compared to the originals, so it could be wonky contrast to bring out otherwise hidden details. I guess I wouldn't be surprised either way though.
I just checked. Wow, that makes me mad. The new 2P design is so much worse too.doesn't surprise me. They made 2P white in the Nier raids in FFXIV too.
Agree to disagree then, like I said I agree that multiple Japanese studios can't write coloured or female characters. But it's a Yoko taro game with great characters who are not the norm ( damn spoilers) I give the game the benifit of the doubtI'm trying very hard to not just be very reactionary and upset because I can see you are looking at this from a sort of artistic view point where the contrast of cultures and union of two groups of people can be wonderful, and I agree that it is beautiful to see that.
The thing is, it was beautiful even in the original game, even when Fyra had tan skin. They don't have to make her look drastically different with a whole new skin tone for their story to become more meaningful or beautiful. The story already is meaningful.
Was she not always white?doesn't surprise me. They made 2P white in the Nier raids in FFXIV too.
Oooh. Comparing her to her SCVI iteration. Bebe bought her so I forgot.
Gives us Japanese audio and brother Nier for the first time in the West. Otherwise i see your point.I'm still waiting to see any part of this remaster that actually improves the original game instead of making it worse.
You could make the argument that they are in fact completely separate characters sharing the same name but.. ehh...
