    hit the nail on the head, if It was 2B and they changed her skin to black for this, this forum would be full of outrage, but apparently it’s fine when the reverse happens cause you know “she’s a robot and skin colour doesn’t matter” which is a very easy thing to say for a group of people who don’t have to think about skin colour.

    At the end of the day her skin has obviously been lightened, and we all know why.

    It would be a big deal if it's an established character, but considering 2P is not real a character before FFXIV, then it doesn't matter either way.

    The irony of their "If 2B was made black, everyone would be mad!" proclamation is that 2P IS just 2B made black (or I guess tan but who cares) and everyone loved it.
