Honestly, I doubt there would have been much talk about it at all. After all, the first RE games took place in the USA. I doubt the protagonist's skin color would matter one bit to most gamers. OT: I think we see an overwhelming majority of white protagonists because of the industry. Historically, video games have been made by white people for white gamers. This is definitely changing but until there are a significant amount of non-white programmers and game developers, that probably won't change much. It's not really racist, people just have a habit of gravitating toward what they know IMO.

That really is the most reasonable explanation, I think.

To lavish praise upon this title, the assumption of a common plateau between player and game must be made. I won't open my unworthy mouth.
