His point is that game developers put a lot of time and thought into creating their fictional worlds but rarely think to feature a black protagonist. I think that's true. |
This is all so hilarious. The developer decides to cast the hero as hispanic, and people are complaining that the main character isn't black. Sheesh. If he was black, then there would be people complaining that he wasn't female, etc., etc.
Is it really the developer's job to make sure everyone has a warm and fuzzy regarding how they perceive their own place in life? I thought it was to make kick butt games with engaging characters. Why doesn't someone with an African American heritage start a dev house and make games with black protagonists? That's what I would do if I was really bothered about that sort of thing. Then again, if the games didn't sell well there would be a lot of complaining about racist consumers.
