As a person of colour, I rather see fewer people of colour but in high quality roles then filling a SJW quota of 'we need need to add a black guy in the cast as a stereotypical character'


Rey and Finn in SW7 works as they do not go Oh I am black or I am a girl, they are two quality roles.

What color? I'm probably mainly pink though i might look a bit bleached out in the wintermonths.

 

Really, it should be about where movies or games are set and when. Let's say it's some historical context. Like Master & Commander. That's where nothing but the 'all white all male' cast makes sense.

Kingdom Come Deliverance is late medieval, kingdom of Behemia. So there won't be tons of female soldiers or witches. And no people of color except pink.

 

Let's stay away from the US. A movie or game set in the modern german 'Ruhrpott' shpuld have a large portion of people with turkish ancestry. Something set in rural saxony should have little to no people with immigrant background (at least not the last fewhundred years).

Main problem here is a) thinking about color. Should be totally irrelevant today. But isn't irrelevant as long as people think about color.

 

The gender thing is another story. Would probably stop if media, especially games, dign't cater to much to one audience.
