I just skimmed the last 10 pages or so of this thread (What a goddamn mess that was) and I have to say...dude, you should probably stop. IT's clear the one with the agenda here is YOU, not Neil or anyone else. YOU are the one clearly intending to disrupt what you perceive as slights against traditional gender roles. It's YOU who seems to have a problem with counterbalancing in the medium (by including more women to make up for the relative lack of women in the past). YOU are the one pushing an agenda, and it's kinda gross, to be honest. 

Are you saying they'll counterbalance the lack of colored people in the future. They haven't counterbalanced up to this point, so i expect to see a lotta non-caucasian AAA single player protagonists. Man, this is going to be an epic counterbalance.

I certainly hope so, but given the backlash games get any time they even TRY to be progressive I imagine that might not be for a while. 

And there's no need to act like diversity isn't good enough if it isn't ALL diversity. I agree we should definitely get more people of colour in games (like, duh, white people are only like 30% of the worldwide population but like 95% of the worldwide protagonists....because most games are made in the US or Europe, I imagine), but it doesn't help your cause to devalue what progress we HAVE made just becuase it's not in the direction you want. All steps forward are good steps, even if they're baby steps.
