I'm not sure I understand what you're saying. When a new game is announced, you don't look at the trailer and think, "hm, that appeals to me," or, "none of that really interests me"? If it doesn't, is it because of a "lack of acceptance" on your part? So, it's your fault if a trailer doesn't rev your hype booster? If my tongue-in-cheek comments about Bieber and his posse aren't enough to discuss, what about the rest of what I said? How about, "my entire point is that I like diversity in my RPGs, along with the mechanic of picking up characters from different environments and circumstances as you progress and watching how they contrast and meld together as a team." I'd say that's far from "lol a band of boys." |
There is no diversity in FF games characters, all of them are walking cookie cutter cliches that have persisted for over 10 years now and that's from someone that actually likes the games, you're building this link between race/gender and diversity here that simply doesn't exist in a FF game, that is diversity in nothing but the visual aspect, the character cliches used are still all the same. Example: Yuffie-Selfie-Rikku-Vanille are all essentially the same character, Cloud and Lighting are also the same freaking character, the gender change added no diversity at all.
Also this whole melding together as a team thing is done in such a shallow way in past FF games that it's actually ridiculous to even try and make a point about it for this specific FF, that is even disregarding the very real possibility of there being more playable characters joining at later points in the game.
