Fans of the popular mobile game "King of Glory" have recently taken to Weibo to share their thoughts on the game's new skins for its characters, specifically for the character "A Li". The new skins, designed by professional gaming team DRG, have received mixed reactions from players online.

Some players are excited about the new skins, eagerly sharing videos and images of the characters' new appearances. The creator of the tweet featured prominently in the post, "王者荣耀 阿离星元皮肤#," proudly declares, "王者荣耀 阿离无限星赏官 新星元皮肤局内特效展示视频来噜!"The post includes a video of the new skin in action and mentions a contest where players can win a skin for free. Other users respond enthusiastically to the opportunity, with over 100 comments expressing excitement.

However, not all responses to the new skins have been positive. One user describes the new appearance of A Li as "丑东西" (ugly thing), while another user compares the design to "一根大葱" (a big onion). A third user mentions their excitement but laments the "土土" (tacky) appearance of the new skin.

Despite the mixed reactions, some players are choosing to purchase the new skins, with one user stating that they will buy the A Li skin later that day. Others are less than impressed with the cost of the skins, with one user stating that they are "看得出来,小王很担心阿离玩家没有皮肤用" (it's obvious that the game company is worried that A Li players won't have enough skins to use).

In response to the criticisms, several Weibo users have come to the defense of the new skins. One user writes, "国家队顶级选手的皮肤,不买不是中国人!" (National team's skin, not buying it makes you not really Chinese!) while another user praises the design, calling it "满满DRG" (full of DRG style).

The controversy surrounding the new skins is not new, with similar debates happening each time a new skin is released. Some players argue that the game company is too focused on making money from in-game purchases, while others defend the company's right to release new skins to generate revenue. Regardless of the outcome, one thing is clear: "King of Glory" continues to be a popular game with passionate players who are happy to share their opinions online.
