Seriously? Where in the post did you see that opium was implied, it's a game. The fact that you said this is so degrading, do better.
To be fair, a pipe's a pipe, lol. Ya put SOMETHING in it, and it typically ain't anything good for one's health XD
Yeah it ain't necessarily opium. Could even just be an empty decorative option, I haven't looked at the idle yet. But there aren't exactly many better alternatives. Things do have lingering impressions and connotations, whether intended or not.
And yet nothing was said about the M Detective outfit that also has a pipe but since this gacha is more eastern style someone decides to say that it is filled with drugs which is racist.
Ain't anymore racist than assuming someone was smoking the usual snuff in the typical Sherlock Holmes pipe (which is what the costume is based on anyway which includes the curved pipe - which does not condone the practice, mind you, but its a recognized piece of it; kinda like what goes in the different pipes). Crims can explain her own thoughts to you if she wants to. But its not an unfair comment to make, or a racist one on surface level either.
I personally think she was reaching a bit (you strike me as very passive-aggressive in some respects Crims :P) but calling it 'degrading' and then tossing racism in there is unnecessary, and pretty rude honestly.
Degrading? Degrading to who? THEY (referring to Nexon because people are stupid) should know better lol. Asian themed outfits with a pipe, a long pipe. Now see the origins of that pipe are long entwined with opium, and even if it's not, it's something in there that should be discouraged. Because at the end of the day whatever is in that pipe certainly ain't freaking bubbles. The pipe from the other outfit ain't ok either for the record.
You know we still get young new players. They recently increased the smoking age to 21. Whats ok over in KR isn't always necessarily ok or acceptable over here.
Racism? Really? You're going to call me a racist? Whatever inkling of respect I had for you just went out the window. Forever. You don't care? I don't care either, I don't care even more now. Have fun with that.
Stop flapping your head Helsa.
Flapping my head? <checks Urban dictionary> <nothing>
¡Lo siento pero no entiendo, señorita roja!
Comprehende?
Tha'd be: ¿Comprehende? BTW heh heh
I mean yeah if you're in school and you have one of those punctuation mark totalitarian teachers, sure. But in the modern era no one really uses that punctuation anymore. I mean you can if you want. Meh.
Anyway, back on topic...
