Its embarrassing that in 2020’s the BEST you can do for gamers of afro descent (15% of the entire nation), is add 2-3 mediocre afro hairstyles onto dracthyr, with 1/3 of those being a copy/pasted model from a straight hairstyle but in loc form.
We literally have more ginger representation than 20% of earth. And this isn’t the only abysmal customization range for such a large swath of the planet.
Eh, I am black and I don’t really know about this. Mostly cause these discussions ALWAYS go badly online.
But also because it feels like pandering. I want diversity, but I don’t want pandering. I am not sure corporations have the ability to deliver one without the other.
No customization for gamers of european descent gets called pandering, even though 10% of earth is from there. It’s simple comprehensive ranges they are lacking, its in fact political to exclude such a giant percentage of the human market you’re selling to.
Real diversity > POC box ticking
Okay, that’s gotta be a made up statistic.
exactly^ and 2-3 styles feels like “why even bother if you’re not going to actual give a range”
See what I mean? You totally missed what I was saying.
What I was saying is representation is cool. But what we would probably get is over the top stereotypes shoehorned in where it doesn’t even make sense and it will just upset everyone.
What I am saying is I do not have faith that Blizzard would do it right. Not that it shouldn’t happen.
That being said I still feel like there’s plenty of option
Lizards aren’t supposed to have hair.
Oh look, another thread so silly it’s transparent bait.
I feel like it’s self-tokenism to pretend adding a group of people in equal respect to others is “inconvenient.” It’s a game with talking vulpera and the dracthyr having afro hairstyles can be “messed up”? An entire continent exists with afro hair lol, It’s not a inconvenience to anyone but the exclusionary.
you’re a void elf, please stop talking about dracthyr styles.
Super bait but I did find it very strange they gave dark skin choices to b/velf but didn’t give a single textured hair option.
the thread really is serious blizz should give blacks more representation instead of just pandering to the lgbt which they clearly do would blizz do it right probably not but they could at least attempt to.
I’m white and I play black, asian, latino, or whatever my character doesn’t look like me a good portion of the time. But sure they could always have more customization.
See, this is why folks are calling this BAIT
If humanoid phenotypes are bait to you, the issue is what you snap at.
These Sunday threads are always a delight.
Don’t get me wrong, I almost took this seriously, then I saw your name. It really couldn’t be more obvious.
