I don't know why you're arguing.  We're in an agreement.  It would be awful if I was forced to play as a character who is white, but not exactly as white from me.  I hope my fellow white brethren react with the appropriate amount of outrage and vitriol.  #representationmatters.

Offended by this very black man

Lol at these gamurgatorz trying to start another dumb controversy, like Horizon supposedly pushing a feminist anti white agenda.

Do people try to make themselves in these games? I usually make a girl or guy I find attractive, or if I am roleplaying the character's appearance fits their back story.

It is too hard to make a character that looks anything like me so I gave up on that long ago. I assumed other people did the same. 

you've been prove wrong though.
The one thing that's maybe missing is really really really pale skin colour. The whitest colour available is still more pale than the average Caucasian.
You're talking about missing white features and traits. What are you smoking? It's all there.

From what I can tell by watching videos, there are a few white looking presents. However, the overall options are strangely limited. I think this is more of a major flaw with the character creator being garbage than "not having white characters" though.

That said, the character creator is one of the worst I've seen in a while. How did they fuck that up so hard?

In games where things just are the way they are, eg. no character creation, I dont, I just play the god that guides that character :p

In games with character creations I like to play characters that are "myselves" (in apperances) (but better versions).

The tools are really too limited to make anything that looks exactly like me, especially since the male characters tend to be fairly jacked, and I'll need to spend a lot more time in the gym before I can get there.  But, I try to make it similar to me where possible.  Hair color, eye color, etc.  

Both my characters are white. Granted, I made them with black hair and a slightly darker shade so they look Greek, because I imagine the mighty Greek empire rising again in this universe... XD #makegreecegreatagain
