Diversity in Gaming

[Arvaos]

What is a game that portrayed diversity well in your opinion?

I love Mass Effect 2, such a diverse group of characters and cultures. It doesn't shoehorn the diversity, it is genuine.

Not just "a" game. A lot of JRPGs have great diversity -- since they are usually party-based, adding people from different backgrounds into that party gives the games a bunch of notably distinct characters to work with.

Watch Dogs 2 did that. Just not very well ...

Hellgate: London.

It has people with purple and orange hair, for example.

Ottawa is 2 hours from Montreal and if you've followed the gamergate 2 and sweet baby inc drama over the last few month's you'd know sweet baby inc mostly employs black people

It was kind of the theme of the mass effect trilogy, and it was released early enough (pre-2015) not to provoke immediate suspicion

It's not my cup of tea, but Apex Legends probably has the most diverse cast of characters of any game ever, yet it doesn't receive any flak at all for it's diversity.

It's almost like gamers don't have a problem with diversity. They have a problem with forced diversity where it doesn't make sense. Tell new and diverse stories. Don't retcon existing stories.

have you ever checked a look at the apex subforum on steam any time a new character comes out?

Tekken 8. They have Jews, Mexicans, Chinese, Russian, and even Sweden. You don’t see a lot of Sweds now a days.

I have not. Is it bad? Seems to be popular and well received regardless.
