    Maybe the modern audiences were the friends we isolated from their group to gain an advantage in combat all along.
    My favorite show growing up was Smallville, a show exploring the teenage years of Clark Kent growing into Superman. For the first few seasons, one of the main characters was Pete, Clark's best friend and the first friend he told his secret to. He also happened to be black, but it was never the point of his character. That's how you do diversity. You just have a character exist as themselves without making the point of their character be whatever checkbox they tick. Just make well written characters, good guys or bad. Don't be afraid to paint them as villains or heroes.

      Literally nobody says this but left leaning progressives who are extremists in social ideology. The others who may say it say it in support of a social narrative they think is true and or play the "lets all get along game". I am a black man born in raised in Brooklyn NY, I don't care if no game ever had black people or any from Urban cities, just give me a freaking good game and be quiet. Additionally, these same folks are very hypocritical and offensive themselves by their train of thought. Anytime they create a black character, they're urban or Ghetto-like as if all of us blacks are that OR they are so out of touch with everyday folks they think this weird minority who says "I just want to see myself" can only relate to a stereotypical version of someone like themselves.
      I relate to Spike Spiegal from Cowboy bebop more than any Black character and Spike is a Jewish Space Bounty Hunter that knows martial arts. I relate to Shoto Todoroki from My Hero Academia more than any Black character and he's a Japanese kid with fire and ice powers. These same folks reduce people down to just their skin color or surface level attributes, not who they actually are inside.

    This is how they really think. This is them feeling safe and secure and powerful enough to show their true face. You quite literally bully, intimidate, gaslight and manipulate NPCs in the game to achieve your ends. And to the creators, that's a good thing. There are no bad tactics, only bad targets. Anything and everything is permissable to fight the enemy, and the enemy is whoever doesn't agree with you. Because to the creators, anyone who doesn't agree with them is morally bankrupt, has no value, and can only do harm. Thus, it is their moral imperative to smash the system, no matter how many people are hurt.
    They really think they're on the vanguard of a new revolution and that they're in the right.

      I have to disagree there have been many politics in entertainment for decades regardless if they're in movies, video games, anime or Manga. The difference is most of them put storylines and character development first, politics later dustborn didn't do that. Also they've been playing video games where you do play as the bad guys

      @@animezilla4486 There's a major difference between making a work based on certain political ideas or about questioning political or philosophical ideas, and a work that's exclusively meant to be a propaganda mouth piece for a political ideology.
      There's also a big difference between games where you play as a villain and the game makes it clear to you that you are a villain and when the game tries to present it as if you're the good guy, but you're very obviously playing as a villain.

    Fun fact:

However, "anomal" comes from the Greek word ανώμαλος (anomalos), which when used to refer to the ground means "not level", but when used to refer to people means "pervert" or "fetishist". In other words, "anomals" prefer being called perverts over being called deviants.

      I think it's more a case that the artists misjudge their audience or that the plot is 'lost in translation'
      IMO, Falling down is the latter, but Dustborn is the former dialed to 11, devs that genuinely believed that everyone/the majority would be on their side and support the story

    During that interview, the guy was blinking and fidgeting nervously because he had a lot to hide. The game was partially funded by not just the Norwegian government, but by the US government as well, and he was trying desperately to not mention either.
    Part of the funding came from the Norwegian Film Institute, a government-funded organization in Norway.
    Another $250,000 USD came from the US Department of State, through the US Embassy in Norway.

    So... if seeing yourself is important and you're happy that you're being represented by an asshole, what does that say about you? Beyond that, I've never felt like I was represented in any game, and you know what? Neither is anyone else because the characters in games aren't designed to represent us. They're mostly meant to be epic heroes. The great thing about games is that we can do things and go places we can't in real life.

    • @DannyDevitoOffical-TrustMeBro
      @DannyDevitoOffical-TrustMeBro 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Exactly. If anything, characters only represent the human experience broadly. You’re supposed to relate to a character based off of his or her humanity; the idea is that you would have empathy and be able to relate to another human because of this. Beyond that, characters are really just themes personified. The notion that a fictional character needs to represent a vast demographic of people based off of superficial immutable characteristics is so absurd, and even narcissistic.

    "There are gamers that are unhappy that characters don't look like they used to 10-20 years ago." Even if that's true for an impossibly small minority where they may legitimately just be racist and don't like anything non-white, is he implying that there are people who ONLY want characters that look like them and that's wrong? Isn't that an often quoted reason why they do what they do?

    I also feel like when people make the excuse of “I’ve never seen it before in the past” this representation or diversity it’s because, in the past, no one was as focused on or concerned with diversity as we are today. Back then, diversity existed, I would say just as much as today, but it wasn’t emphasized or highlighted as much because it wasn’t the primary focus or something that was pushed to the forefront like it is now. So people don’t remember games or certain media back then for their diversity but their stories and quality.
