So, I didn't go read the comments on the forum the article spoke of, but it's clear that whoever wrote that article is biased. He automatically labels threads (and I'm guessing the people creating them) that have anything to say about the protogonist being black as "racist". The writer also complains of people attacking SJWs, clearly showing which side he's on.
I don't care the protogonist is black, simply because I didn't play Watch Dogs and don't plan on playing this one. But this modern day politically correct mentality that would have anyone saying anything about a character's gender or color, even in as diplomatic a was as possible, labeled as "racist" or "misogynistic" when that character is not a white male has gotten ridiculous.
Saying that a game will be more interesting simply because the protagonist is not a white male is mind-boggingly ludicrous. Or that a game was bad because the protagonist was a white male. If people would prefer a white male protagonist, that is their right. It's a little too easy to claim that person is racist. Such rash conclusions are not useful and don't serve conversation. Those quick to judgement should maybe take a long look at themselves in the mirror and ask if that's really the society they want to live in.
