teigaga said: Well of course, games which don't have designated representation: Sports, racing, , RPGs where you design your own character, game with non-human/genderbased characters, games based on established IPs where devs have no choice. The conversation is not a tit for tat, its based on relevance and that concerns the hyped up big budgeted AAA games which dominate each year and which people consume, not niche japanese titles that struggle to sell 100k in the west. Also games which have scripted protagonists, because those are the kinds that are remembered and become cultural icons (Link, Lara, Snake, Nathan Drake, Cloud etc), unfortunately not your characters from Dragons Dogma :p |
So, what was the last AAA game to have a straight, white male?
I don't think Assassin's Creed Chronicles: China is AAA. BF: Hardline had a Cuban main character. I guess The Order: 1886 before that in February. An AAA game before that was in November with Far Cry 4 which had an Indian/Nepalese main character.
Not a whole lot if you ask me.
