An emo pale white guy being portrayed by a regular black guy. Jeez I wonder what the problem is.

Oh I forgot skin color is such a huge characterization.  

Once again, I don't agree.  'The movie basically had nothing to do with the series.  They changed the location from Japan to the US, they changed the name of Yagami, they changed the entire cast from Japanese to American.  But no, "having a black guy play the part" is just bad.  That's way worse than making Light an idiot, even though that was something the entire series revolved around.

1.) Mass Effect: Andromeda is a direct result of a team practicing diversity hiring. It was so bad, EA had to get another team to fix the game and poor sales caused them to put the series on hold. And if you don't think it's happening elsewhere, you're fooling yourself.

3.)  Its the same bullshit they're pulling with SW, which is turning fans off of the product. The Force is female. It's fine for Rey to be a Mary Sue. The character of Rose, who adds absolutely nothing to the story and actually prevents Finn from doing something heroic,  is treated like she's a great character and if you disagree you're sexist. Lando is pansexual. It cost them $700M+ with TLJ. Now, 66% of the users on RT are saying they don't want to watch the Solo movie. Kathleen Kennedy is ruining that franchise with her political views being forced into the films. 

1.)  By someone's opinion.  

Other people have a different opinion.  The game had a host of development issues that don't necessarily have to do with diversity. That the game was understaffed.  One guy who actually worked on the game said the issue was that there wasn't enough diversity.  http://jstationx.com/2017/10/23/mass-effect-andromeda-failure-lack-of-diversity/

3.)  Haven't seen the film, but from what it sounded like the issues with the movie had nothing to do with women.  

 

Besides, you are mixing up writing and the actor.  Just because you don't like how a woman is portrayed doesn't mean it has anything to do with her.  When it has everything to do with the script that someone else wrote.  

Oh yeah, let us just have a regular dude play a goofy emo character that doesn't resemble him at all in any way or fashion. I don't expect 100% perfection, but I expect them to at least try. 

 

This guy here feels me.
