Does it really matter what ethnicity the main character is?

>>375767329
Depends, its interesting to get different flavors of characters.

>>375767408
true, if their backstory offers a different perspective then I guess it could be interesting but I've never really seen it in video games

I don't think anyone has ever said that.

>>375767329

It doesn't, just like sexual preference and gender. Each time someone brings it up saying "x is over/under represented", it causes a divide.

>>375766894

Is one of these two supposed to be female?

The consensus on /v/ is that nobody here cares about diversity, as long as it isn't shoved down our throats. Only shitposters, /pol/lacks and (4*2)channers care.

I'd edit this statement and say that as long as the ethnicity is incidental to the plot or story then it is fine.

San Andreas was set in 90's LA and leaned heavily on gangsta rap and the LA riots, CJ was a perfect protagonist for this and is often remembered fondly.

Whereas shoving blacks into starring roles in european fantasy or historical games seems strange

>>375766894
rather this than black

Loved seeing Polygon get absolutely buttblasted by Polish devs that defended Witcher 3 from those "muh black peepl" claims, saying that they were Americanizing a piece of Slavic culture. Outed SJWs as genuine, subtle, "Get Out"-esque racists.
