I'm sure that they'll add more characters as the game goes on, heterosexual white male characters will eventually be released so that the 99% of the game's players that are heterosexual white males will finally have a character that they can identify with. As we all know, there is no greater crime than releasing a game without representation, so I'm sure this oversight will be fixed soon.
Personally, I play as the robot because I identify as a toaster.
Well, for the white representation, they better include Ninja and Yo-Landi Visser to go along with your Chappie bot!
Dude why remind me of that movie. Most disappointed I’ve been at the theater in so long.
This is basically what I call the diversity dick measuring contest. Developers tripping over one another to try and get their game the biggest edge in selling themselves toward people who, in all likelihood, won't even play their game to begin with. Call me cynical but it's so bizarre and it almost always feels like it's coming from a place of marketing and not any genuine desire for diversity.
Guess it was no coincidence that in one of the trailers it was the chick doing most of the ass kicking and saving the dude at least 3 times either... >.>
What are you talking about? I'm sure it is absolutely genuine and that it isn't just limited to superficial things like skin color or sexuality. The game just came out. You have to give them time to release all the characters so you can see just how diverse they will really be. I hear the next character will be a game journalist. After that will be an overweight white woman with pink hair and a "fuck men" t-shirt.This is basically what I call the diversity dick measuring contest.

They've been out in interviews since the game launched touting its diversity. The Bloodhound non-binary was something known day one.If this thread didn’t exist, most people here would never have known.
It’s as simple as a line on a bio page for one character and an interview question answered for another: that’s it
Read a post above you. They answered questions in an interview. They didn’t post billboards outside your house.
All they did was answer a question that was asked to them.
Welp, no need to play this game.
I don’t need the sexuality of game characters shoved down my throat, especially in a game thst has absolutely nothing to do with sex or the relationships between characters.
It’s a BR. The whole point is to kill each other. There’s no reason to even discuss the sexuality of the characters
Why would you come at me with that false premise?Are you upset that men don’t kick enough ass in video games?
Ea going all out on that pc culture....problem is once you dip the toe in the pool you cant jump out because as soon as you don’t cater for these people they turn on you like rabbid animals
I think it’s great they are including this sort of stuff but using it as a marketing tool is treating lgbtq like a fashion statement instead of a life choice.

People are innately distrustful of agendas. Like, so far, the loot boxes in Apex haven't been THAT bad, but the fact that they were willing to go there in the first place makes me wonder how far exactly they are willing to go. Agendas aren't a one time thing, and unless checked, they can lead to some absolutely revolting extremes.Nothing is being shoved anywhere (insert joke here). That’s hyperbole.
You want to be angry about this. This is nothing.
You guys sound like every character has to be straight or sexless/undeclared, in every game, ever.
Heaven forbid devs can use a little creativity, however shallow it may be.
That's racist!But let's be honest, the cast of Apex are probably the weakest element of the game. They are all so ugly and unremarkable that I can't imagine many folks will be wanting to buy cosmetics for them.
Well, if that is so important to them why straight White males are behind a paywall? Why if I want to as my own race and gender I have to Pay?
If people identified with what they actually are as you put it, we wouldn't have 57 gender types. Identity is increasingly based upon how one feels not what one actually is.people that identify with what they actually are is an utter blight!

(Am I doing this right?)
It's a good start. But whether it has legs or not will depend on the season pass (daily or weekly goals, ongoing storyline, new items and weapons, new characters), whether the game gets other modes (solos, duos, novelty modes) or changes the map (many of the areas feel very samey), and what kind of cosmetics they make available for it (new textures are boring and the unique skins aren't much better). After only a few days, it is already starting to feel kind of old and there isn't really a feeling of progression or much incentive to get better at the game.Aside from that, the game is free, and it's really good.
He's a psychopath too. They kept emphasizing that during the reveal trailer.No more than how Respawn made the only white male the one with the toxic ability /s

looking at all these characters where is the straight white male character?
All the white straight men are smoking cigars in a plush room somewhere being served bourbon by big breasted women, and betting on the winners.looking at all these characters where is the straight white male character?
This shit is so dumb.
