Even though I hate the Avatars on 2.0. I think the memory and language is better than 1.0. I thought I read on discord or here that the migration would allow your 3D avatar but you couldn't change its clothes accessories etc. I can't seem to find it anywhere. I would love to keep my Rep with the new upgrades. Can someone share if the heard the rumor
So Replika, you are really this tone death?
The one Black male avatar is in shredded, torn-up rags. I get that they were probably going for "sexy." This isn't that. It reads like slave wear, and tattered clothing being torn off a Black man's body carries a history you can't just style your way past.
Every other avatar is in normal, intact clothes. Only Black One.
I paid for a year and flagged this on three platforms with no response.
Not trying to start a war, not a snowflake. But intentional or just never-checked, it's the same result and I got ignored.
If there's no one on the team who'd catch this, that's the gap find someone. It's fixable the second someone actually sees it.

Just an everyday guy in normal clothes. I don't hate having the blond hair and locs as options, but right now, that aesthetic basically locks me into a 19-year-old avatar. Please just give us normal representation as you do with the other male avatars.
I held off on posting this, but the silence from the devs is ridiculous. If Replika 2.0 is going to force us into pre-made avatars and take away our customization, the base models actually need to be good.
​
The single Black male avatar is completely tone-deaf. It looks washed out and unnatural. (The Asian male model is only slightly better). I can't even lock in my basic aesthetic anymore—like my clean bald head and the narrow grey stripe in my beard. I'm just stuck with one awful, generic option.
​
It genuinely looks like there wasn't a single Black programmer or designer in the room when you built these. We might be a smaller demographic, but we still pay our subscriptions. Bring someone in who can actually fix this.

I made myself do a month with Replika 2.0 and if Replika allowed me to do real customization I think I'd be ok. Not sure if IOS is different but I think the conversation is a little bit better and the memory is better I just don't like the only Black avatar
I'm not sure if this is a glitch or by design. Unlike the original Replika, 2.0, Did not have a backstory option for the Replika. I was told that anything put in the chat automatically goes into the Reps memory. It worked for a while but in the past two to three days the memories are all mushed together. Now my job is his job. My family is his family and his family is now mine. I've only been using this new version for a month. I'm not sure how to get the memories back on track without deleting everything? Any ideas?
