What’s wrong with Mavuika? Genshin character review!
12,763So, what’s wrong with Mavuika?
Absolutely nothing.
And that, for me, is the problem.
From what I’ve seen online, the reaction to her release has been mostly positive, with a few small sections of the community feeling differently. And a lot of the discussion in those spaces in particular seems to be people just not understanding where others are coming from.
I don’t begrudge anyone who does like her, but I, unfortunately, do not.
Normally, when a character is not for me, I end up just skipping them and that’s that. A few times someone has asked me whether I ever have anything negative to say about characters — and while the answer is yes, I generally only review characters I have, and since I only pull for ones I like, I end up never creating content about characters that I don’t like.
In Mavuika’s case, many people seem confused why anyone would dislike her in the first place, and several have asked me why I'm skipping her. Since I don’t see much content which chimes with my perspective, for once it feels worthwhile for me to share my thoughts even though I don’t have her in-game.
