Would a game set in a fantasy setting inspired by the African continent and its folklore be interesting to you.
It would have creatures classes magic and playable races all based on African folklore.
Also as a side effect of the seating and story your playable character can only be white if you suffer from full Vitiligo as a selective trait and all this would do is give you a penalty to charisma and a bonus to stealth in Savannah or some other minor bonuses to offset the charisma penalty (You still look like an African native regardless of skin color)
But otherwise you cannot make a non native African character nor meat any in game.
Maybe they do exist on another Continent but the game takes place before the age of discovery so as far as you care they dont and only black people are playable.
Wold the inability to play someone who is your race acualy deter you from enjoying the game assuming its a realy good RPG game.

I'd play the fuck out of that assuming it's a good rpg.
Love me some folklore and mythology.
>>
Id be more interested if you told me more about the African folklore and what classes would be available instead of telling me I won't be able to play as a white person for half of the post.
>>
Wouldn't it make more sense for the wanna-be white person to be an albino?

>Game is suddenly considered racist for getting one small part of African folklore wrong
It would never happen, not that I wouldn't play it in sure that it would be awesome, but they're leading themselves to step on about a million land mines.
It's like in Canada, you basically can't have any media featuring native Americans unless you consult with a tribe for decades or else they'll jump down your throat.

You can roll as an albino except every player tries to kill you so they can drink your blood and cure their AIDs
Also if you make your character bald then players can smash your head open and harvest gold.

healing items are dried mud cookies and eating bushmeat heals you a lot except you get the ebola debuff

Guild Wars Nightfall and Elonia continent was a thing anon. Sad that this GW2 expansion will probably kill everything good the original developers created, just with a nice paint job over the butchering.

I remember /tg/ had a really interesting thread about basing a setting of African folklore. African mythology is weird as shit,
The Bush is essentially treated like the Warp from 40k. A place of chaos from which all sorts of crazy civilization-threatening monsters can emerge. Blacksmiths and other people who's job it is to work with metal are essentially wizards and heroic Ancestor Ghosts have a habit of randomly borrowing their descendant's bodies to go on cool adventures.

what type of rpg would it be? arpg? crpg? "rpg" like skyrim? would it pander to the "WE WUZ KANGZ" crowd or get the actual setting accurately as possible?
