Never finished the game. HOW exactly was it "racist"?
I don't even think the guy's white.
I will never understand people that actively look for things to be offended by in video games of all places. Reminds me of the Trophy in GoW Ascension that Sessler was bitching about.
A lot of people do this. I think there is a term for it, but I haven't come across it. I remember Gies was being smashed on twitter for something stupid he said (surprise) and there were a lot of legitimate points being made. But one guy called him a faggot and all Gies did was retweet that post. It's a desperate attempt to frame yourself as the victim and your opponents as immature.That's the MO.
See the OP's quote:
Of course he isn't quoting those people, because if you attack someone on GAF like that which he alleges then you get perma-banned. Always keep it broad or refer to what random accounts on other services do. Way less accountability.
You mean the white blonde guy? Sure...
Like I said in the other thread, I really hope the protagonist of FC4 is a Gurkha.
Purple is a color often associated with gay people by choice, at least recently. Though I'd say this is pinkish purple, and pink is considered by many to be an effeminate color. Limp wrists is a stereotype of gays, as is being fashionable. So when you combine all those in one image, I think it is pretty clear why I'd feel like they could be playing off this stereotype.
People are entitled to their opinions and can certainly disagree with me. All I did was voice my concern about what was given to me and my initial feelings.
I dont have a problem with this. Its different, different is good. It's like, the white knights around here have never seen a controversial film or something. I say it's about time games stop being so PC and get awesome.

The narrative essentially follows the same arc found in media like The Last Samurai, Dances with Wolves, or Avatar: an outsider white person is brought into the tribal system and taught their ways (often with the help of a "magical native"), and becomes The Great White Hope for the tribe, who uses their techniques better than they ever could and acts as a hero for a group whose agency was suddenly ripped from under their feet.
After Far Cry 3's ramshackle of a story was critically put down, the writer claimed that it was merely a "satire" and that no one understood his grand vision. Because no one wants to take responsibility for their mistakes, merely passing the blame to another.
there's no way that guy is more than a 4 on the Kinsey scale.

he looks Asian to me. As for his hair color they actually have dye for that now.You mean the white blonde guy? Sure...
when I read this comment, I imagine it as being read by your avatar and I get a little excited. Does that make me gay for David Duchovny, or do I need to be wearing purple for that?
THIS is what I meant to say a few pages ago. Glad someone could word it better than me.My question to you would be, had this character's suit been, say, black and with a tie, would you have mentioned anything?
My bet is no. This whole thing, ironically, paints an interesting picture about your preconceived notions, as a bisexual.
The moment I saw the picture below, I felt my heart sank. An evil character, wearing all purple, having an edgy stylish modelesque haircut, hand resting on a guys head...I instantly thought they could be making a gay antagonist.
How can one post be so based?This OP is emblematic of everything that I hate with Twitter and journalism and people in general today. Faux outrage and offense over NOTHING. Grandstanding at the drop of a hat, without any understanding of context or pretty much anything.
"I see vaguely see something that might be a commentary on RACE! RACIST!"
"I spy with my little eye something that might be stretched and distorted and misconstrued as negative towards gay people! HOMOPHOBIC!"

S..so what's the game like..
Everything is racist today. Everything is bad, everything is offensive.
People need to get that stick out of their ass and stop being offended by every little thing.
I think they are reading to much into this picture.
you and I both know it probably won't be.
Its going to be another power fantasy trip like FC3 that tries to take itself seriously and fails....and it will be passed off as "satire" from the writers because everyone called them out for it being a failure.
You cannot be racist to white people.
