Character creation

[Mr Jt (Gog is king)]

Hi
Can you actually create a character as well at least the main hero or are they all set?

Who doesn't fall into one of those categories?

White men?

... that would be the pig man. As you just proved.

From the video it looks like we have a woman bounty hunter, a pigman, a Mexican cowboy, a Native American, and a bald woman. How representative.

So no white male, ala Clint Eastwood, sigh.

My god some you people are whiny. No matter the game, there's always someone whining about white people not getting enough representation. There's a million other games you can play a white guy in, if it's that much of a deal breaker for you then go play them.

I kinda feel that the white guys that actually care about being represented are being quite fairly represented by the pig man.

It's almost like they aren't the borg and are different people with different beliefs and political beliefs. Huh, weird!

That's my point, creators shouldn't compromise their artistic vision for brownie points

How do you know they are compromising their artistic vision? I see more people complain about no white man option on game forums than people complaining about lgbt+ representation. If anything, if they were doing something for brownie points, it seems reasonable to assume that making a white male character would be it.

The developers are French and the French have always had a reputation for being quite different to other western countries.

There are more white males who play these games than the minority alphabet group.

Which is why it'd be pandering to the masses to make white male leads.

Anyone who's heavily collectivist is like this. And any criticism directed at them will come back with a "no u", btw. This game doesn't look good to me for different reasons though: the term "immersive sim" as used by their marketing appears to mean nothing, and there is freaking Diablo-style tiered equipment.

I think the game will be Ultima inspired, isometric view, lots of detail in how you can use the world and items, the need to have food but not in the Bioshock eat food from the garbage can to instantly heal those bullet wounds kind of way. The creator has only made immersive sims as far as I can tell so I wouldn't doubt the genre just yet.

I find it funny that having different unique representations of characters that aren't Clint Eastwood in the West is always meant to be ulterior. If I made a story about a black person because I feel there's not many stories about black characters then the story is bad based on that premise? Just funny to me, no matter if they proved this had nothing to do with appeasing/catering to a crowd, none of the people angry about that would care... They'd just say it was fake, etc... I am amazed at the consistency.

bruh who tf wants to be a woman or mexican ranchero in the wild west, it's always been clint eastwood or indians, not to mention the female sheriffs. quickest way to be hung in 1800's is to be a chinese algerian mixed parapalegic woman telling anyone what to do

I got warned and that guy whining got banned. I like the game, I am sorry that I said so many f-bombs, but I thought this whole topic was stupid and should be locked based on the toxicity.
