There are video games that, despite having great moments of success and many active users, do not mean that they can be free of controversy, and that can cause significant repercussions on the title.

In this case, we have as an example the popular mobile RPG Dislyte, developed by Lilith Games, which has recently been criticized for one of its trailers because the design of an NPC was classified as racist.

DISLYTE INVOLVED IN RACISM SCANDAL

A report by The Gamer gave an account of the recent scandal that the mobile RPG with a pop and futuristic theme Dislyte is experiencing because, in its recent trailer, an NPC that appreciated for 2 seconds was detected by a sector that considered it racist. According to a thread about what happened by ResetEra users, the NPC in question had a design inspired by the black population; the detail was that his features were exaggerated, which ignited the spirits of some players who crossed out the game of racism.

Although the NPC appeared in the background for only 2 seconds, it was enough for Dislyte to face the scandal. After the wave of criticism, the developers modified the content, and uploaded the trailer again, this time with the NPC without detailed features and with the color of his skin clarified.
