Genshin Impact Concept Shows Region-based Skins for Aether…

Summary

Genshin Impact players are eager for region-based outfits for the main characters Aether and Lumine, as it would enhance the game's immersion and reflect the inspiration from real-life locations and cultures.
The concept of different outfits based on major regions in Genshin Impact has received positive feedback, with players appreciating the subtle representation of culture and symbolic elements in the designs.
The addition of region-based outfits for Aether and Lumine could also lead to their increased usage in the game, as they have not been popular choices in the character meta thus far.

A Genshin Impact player shares an impressive set of concepts that show different skins for the two main characters inspired by the in-game regions. At the start of each playthrough, players are offered to choose between Aether and Lumine to become their Traveler and their main goal is to find their long-lost sibling.

While the character roster remains the main focus of Genshin Impact's frequent update schedule, the game does not introduce too many cosmetics, at least compared to other gacha games. HoYoverse has introduced a pattern of releasing sets of two outfits twice a year around their Summer event and the annual Lantern Rite Festival.

A Reddit user by the name WinkWonkBingBong has shared four interesting concepts featuring the two main characters Aether and Lumine equipped with different outfits. Each of these four concepts is based on the following major regions in Genshin Impact: Mondstadt, Liyue, Inazuma, and Sumeru. Since the game arrived way back in September 2020, players have been asking HoYoverse to add region-based outfits for their two main characters which is probably one of the reasons why the concept attracted over 1.1k upvotes. A lot of comments praise the creator's design approach as all the outfits seem subtle while also representing the culture and symbolic elements of the four regions.

Some fans have pointed out that having these outfits would definitely improve the game's immersion effect since every region in the game is inspired by a real-life location and its culture. This would also cause many players to use Aether and Lumine more frequently since they have never been at the top of Genshin Impact's character meta.

The most useful is probably the Dendro Traveler which has been used in many parties in the first couple of Sumeru updates before HoYoverse introduced more supports that can apply this element. A couple of comments have asked the creator of the concept to create a fifth set of skins that would be inspired by the recently added Fontaine region. This region, also known as the Hydro nation, is based on 1910s France which is mostly reflected in the unique clothing.

The region is also known for its advanced technology which is why the main city of Fontaine also has a slightly futuristic design. When it comes to new playable characters, the game has already introduced two new characters, Lyney and Lynette, while Freminet is scheduled to arrive in the second part of Genshin Impact update 4.0.
