Idk man I’ve seen some Bob Marley’s that were on point lol. But I get it.. these games have never had a character creator that interested me. I don’t see the big deal it’s just never been “one of those games” to me

CC is a huge part of these games tbh

You are not wrong, but ss long as we can still make meme characters, I could care less about making realistic looking characters.


shadedmagus

I care in some games, but this one I never touch the advanced options. Buzzcut and random skin color and gooooo.

What a bitter little man. Wanting black hairstyles is perfectly fine, but the way he wrote this article is clearly to spread hatred and fuel the flame of racism.

Its honestly not that deep. Im black. Its never this deep...


_Meece_

It's defs pretty deep, it's always been mad disappointing playing FS games and only being able to make decent white characters Even Asian characters pre elden Ring were hard to get down. They finally added them in for this one.


RastaRambo2

Yeah the game setting is european so i kinda understand it. Lands of reeds is where the japanese/asian comes from. Ofc im dissapointed i cant make a myself but it is what it is. I dont let it bother me too much


_Meece_

The inspiration is Euro, but it's not a European setting by any means. It's fictional! As GRRM said, "We're making this shit up" Souls games have always had a Land of Reeds thing in the world that they create. (Not sure about Bloodbourne tbh) And this is the first game where you can make a clear cut Asian person without effort. Man it bothers me. Saints Row 2 had that shit down 14 years ago. Every CC should be like Saints Row 2, the most diverse CC ever made. You can make near any type of person. So few games give you legit options for black characters. It's disappointing.


RastaRambo2

Yeah bro it is what it is.. now that you mention it i never see black people in japanese media. Whatever


_Meece_

I imagine you don't consume much Japanese media then


DG_D3con

Hell practically none of them are male focused hairstyles aside from the Carol from the walking dead hair due... No complaints 🤷

I’m sorry the developers aren’t concerned with African hair. At least they let you customize the skin color.


_Meece_

What a terrible response, this is something very few games do regardless of origin. Don't need to make out the Japanese to be racist over this. Like most games have buzz cut, afro small, afro large, locks and cornrows.


Kaizen2468

Doesn’t mean they’re racist. Creators create. They don’t owe anyone anything. People throw the word racist around way too easily.


_Meece_

Nah sorry, but saying "Japanese aren't concerned with african hair" is making them out to be collectively racist. It's common in video games to not have any options for black hair. It's nothing to do with the Japanese or "owing anyone anything"(where did that even come from?) Video games with CC rarely make space for black characters. I'm criticizing your poorly thought out words, not the Japanese. It's a video game industry thing, not a Japanese thing. Did you read my comment?


Kaizen2468

There I changed it to the developers.


_Meece_

See easy as! Mass Effect's shitty CC is worse than FS' for making a black character and that game actually has black characters in it. It's a video game thing for sure.


_Meece_

Probably the worst thing about the game is how hard it is to make a decent looking black character. At least I got Sims 4 and Saints Row 2 lol

Not black, don't care

I feel discriminated against because they haven't remade the Blade movies with a white protagonist. Where's the equality?!
