Is lack of gender/racial diversity valid criticism?

No, now she looks like an actual supermodel compared to the PS1 days.

 

Edit: And apparently real human beings can have big tits.

I think the funniest thing is that so many SJWs think Lara had big tits in the early Tomb Raider games cuz objectification. When the reality was it used less polygons and so was a technical design choice that the games artwork then adapted to.

 

What games are people playing that all the protagonists are white males? Maybe your game choice is more the issue than the industry itself.

And considering anime characters white, is people  with racial insecurities projecting. Most anime characters are Asian. Shock horror Asian skin tones can be pale too. But people have such a gripe with the "white man" that they tell anime artists their characters are white and they just don't realise they are viewing white people as superior. 

 

This thread is so full of wtf.

it's no the skin colour which makes people assume anime characters are white. It's their other characteristics which give off a western appeal. People like Jojo, Naruto, or Edward(Full Metal) are meant to not look like Asian characters. In my opinion though, I usually associate characters with where they're from in their own world- Edward in Germany, Naruto from leaf Village, and Jojo from wherever the heck he is. If they're going to live in a fantasy world, why waste our time deciding what their race is if it isn't specified?
