I've seen the discussion on the forum before. Mars' skin tone changes by the scene. Sometimes he's solid black, sometimes grey looking, sometimes brown, sometimes white. Look in the gallery at the early scenes with Sera and then look at the newer ones. He looked white originally and he's moved to a much greyer color now. In her ending, he looks as dark or darker than her. It's not character specific either. He looked greyish and ash colored in some scenes with Elena and much darker brown in others. Maybe Nitro will give some sort of an explanation in the future, but so far I've only ever seen people here say he claims to still be using the same coloring. The coloring is definitely different, but I don't really know if it's an interracial thing or not. Maybe he's trying to make Mars seem different from everyone else or maybe the other guy's theory about corruption is right. I really doubt we'll ever hear a clear answer on it from Nitrolith unless it really is plot related.I know this has already been brought up but it seriously needs to be addressed at this point:
Why does Mars get more black with every update?
With this update making you got back to previous sates to access the new content it's exremely glaring (if it wasn't already) that it's not "actually just the same color".
Seriously Mars went from kinda tan, if not grey in some scenes to the famous "ambiguously brown" to straight up african.
I was glad we finally got a Vi scene but whoever is in the scene isn't Mars.
I don't really get what happened, I'm guessing the dev discovered a fetish along the way and decided to use it more in the game.
There was always a bit of interracial fetish adjacent stuff but it feels like with the whole demon cult plotline the story veered towards that and that alone. Now even scenes which shouldn't be about borderline racist content end up right on that line because of all the subtext of the character just straight up changing color.
I really love this game but all that interracial weirdness is putting off my enjoyment of it.
