Cultural Sensitivity in Game Design: Creating Inclusive and Respectful Gaming Experiences

Greetings participants, we're a collective of design students enrolled in the Bachelor of Design in Creative Media (BDCM) program at Taylor's University in Malaysia. We're currently conducting research and seeking perspectives from professionals and enthusiasts in character design regarding the importance of cultural sensitivity in game design, with a particular focus on addressing over-sexualization of characters, particularly within a popular game like Genshin Impact. Your honest answer and detailed explanation would be a huge contribution to our research and would be much appreciate ✨🎮.
