On June 29th, the topic #Diluc reached #14 on Weibo’s hot trending list at 10 pm. The reason behind the lively discussion was the recently leaked outfit concept art of that character.
Diluc is a playable character from the video game Genshin Impact. The character quickly became popular due to his tender personality and reliable DPS performance in-game.
On June 29th, multiple sources leaked information about the incoming version 3.0 of Genshin Impact. The information included the art of the Dendro archon, a map of Sumeru, new Sumeru characters, and the new outfit for Diluc.

However, there were many discussions on Weibo showing that people were not satisfied with the outfit depicted in the leaked concept art. Some complained the design had a perspective error, and some were happy about the high ponytail but disliked the outfit design. Some people said they would not pay for the outfit and are even considering quitting the game because of it. Meanwhile, some other Weibo users pointed out the leaked image had not been confirmed yet, and they hoped it was a fake one.
