Aloy's arrival in Genshin Impact was one of the most controversial events in video game history. There were some players who criticized the addition of a character that had little or nothing to do with Teyvat's story, although most of the complaints were related to the lack of effort from the game creators when introducing it. We have already talked in detail about how the iconic PlayStation character was mistreated by developers and ended up forgotten by fans. At least, that's how it was until very recently, because now it has become the favorite of a sector of the community. Be careful because from here there are big spoilers for the latest Horizon DLC.

Aloy becomes a unique character for Genshin Impact, but not thanks to HoYoverse
Horizon's story was still in development when the character was introduced in Genshin Impact, and while it could continue, it has brought one of its most important chapters to a close with the recent release of an expansion called Burning Shores. Playable content that expands the plot of the game a bit and continues to evolve the characters. The point is that at a certain point in the adventure there is a scene in which Aloy kisses Seyka, her companion during the trip.

This is nothing that extraordinary in terms of the Horizon saga. Many Western games have long tried to destigmatize romantic relationships between people of the same sex or gender. However, it is something that many players never thought to see in Genshin Impact. In this sense, many members of the HoYoverse title community already consider it official that Aloy is the first non-heterosexual character in the video game. The situation, of course, has been celebrated by many players who discovered the story over the last few hours.

Keep in mind that HoYoverse is a developer from China, where there are certain laws that prevent what they call "promotion of homosexuality." In this sense, the lack of representation of the video game is not necessarily explained by the refusal of the developers, if not by the censorship of the country. In principle, this change will not have any impact on the version of Aloy in this video game, although it has forever changed the way in which many players relate to her and now, at least, there is a reason why she is special to the community. from Genshin Impact.
