ugh, an Elda, don't let it near me
I hate fantasy racism when it's this on-the-nose. A bit more subtlety would be appreciated.

Do you think racism in real life is always subtle? There's plenty of subtle racism in the game towards certain races.

Who let this Elda in here anyway?

You want subtle from the team that brought you things like a twisted boob/tongue kronenburg monster representing a sex offender? =\

Yeah, I want to like the game but I really don't get why the writing is this child-like. I'm expecting a lot of inconsistency and hypocrisy with the messaging later in the story.

However, I'm willing to give it a chance and see if it gets more interesting and mature despite the initial bad taste. There's plenty of good going for it.

I like racism when it's on the face like this, it's sincere.

Guess OP never had someone told him in his face how they dislike him because of his race in his entire life, and now he is just projecting.

Back when racism was normalized like during the colonial empires (1500s - 1800s) it was probably like that or worse.

Elda is better than humans tho.

Judging by the prologue humans seem pretty strong actually

I treat it as an introduction more than anything. Being subtle for the sake of being subtle can go over people's heads if you don't prepare them for it.

This game basically sparks a fire in me because it cannot stop me from thinking about how asians are treated in Yurop.

Either outright dismissal or just pretending that we don't exist.

Not sure if it's really the dev's intention but I'm glad some games do cover this topic.
