I cant wait for Resident Evil 5 but I hate the people who think the games racist just because it takes place in Africa and the main character is a white guy. If your going to Africa, its not like your going to see a lot of white people around... Dont you think majority of the population is African American? And Resident Evil has an established cast of characters whom they are reusing one of them for this game. I find it so pathetic that people even consider this, in a way its as if promoting other cultures in video games or anywhere in media or society is more racist than if you didnt have them in the media at all.
They did the same thing for Assassins Creed, in the end the creators had to put that white screen in the very beginning which said something like this "This game was made by a distict group of people belonging to various backgrounds and faiths".
Very pathetic indeed. I mean what do these people want? Are they so protective of their culture/traditions that the feel its as if anyone who tried to promote their cast is a racist just because they want to differ from the norm.
I understand things are slowly but surely chaning, but still its attempts like this which makes be baffled.
Are people so over protective of their cast that they find it offensive when someone tries to promote it? Wouldnt it be more offensive if their cast wasnt promoted at all? I'd be proud if someone made a game or movie where being whatever race you were was the star of the show^^
They shouldnt be angry if lets say a person of your religion was a character that could be killed in a fictional game, it happens to everyone, its not that certain casts are off limits, now I would find that racist.
Whats your take on this?
