Can you create a black dude to play as, as a white guy, without it being racist?

Yes. Because race is an integral part of a person’s identity, especially if they are nonwhite. It influences each and every aspect of their life.

By playing as a character who is a person of color when you are white yourself, you are implying that you can separate characters from their race, that all our lived experiences and struggles that come with being a particular race can be dismissed as immaterial without changing who we are. This is racist. You are erasing our experiences with race and appropriating our identity without ever having to experience all the pain that comes with it.

ask to your containment board

good friend of mine always makes niggers in games
listens to nigger music
follows niggers on twitter
wouldnt be surprised if he watches niggered.com, and asks his wife to fuck one

Technically it’s digital blackface

>*play Black guy*
>*he sounds like a White guy*
Is this what Bethesda meant by adding more roleplay options?

>Go to tweeter
>See american making a joke
>Punchline is "haha, *race* *person*"

Why are you guys so obsessed with race?

Abused girl is hot.

Yes
It's only digital blackface if you are trying to make a parody of exaggerated black features and running around acting like a clownish version of African American stereotypes.

Blackface was a style of makeup used to make fun of African Americans. If you are making fun of them for their race, you are being racist

If you are making a character who is black and not making fun of said character for his race, you are not racist.

The oligarchs have pitted them against each other

Racial tensions has always been a big part of American Culture. Since the US is the "Melting Pot" of culture, it means the tribalistic mentality of "us versus them" is being jam packed into tightly-packed industrial cities or the upper class finding justification to be "better" than the little guy.

Because of that, people saw race first and foremost, and that bleeds down into our culture today.

Same kinda reason why we're so uptight about Sex, because the first settlers were uptight Puritans.

Yes
Just be prepared for the novelty to wear off early in the game

You’re not uptight about sex you dork. You literally make the most porn in the world.

Any black person I've ever made in a video game ends up looking like a racist caricature so I would say now

It’s pretty much blackface, and yes it’s racist

I don't know if racist but it means you are a cuck.

There is nothing racist about wanting to recreate and play as your wife's boyfriend. He is really cool after all.

Is pic related what the controversy is from? That isn't blackface.

If you make them a criminal or a murderer then it's okay, it's only when you make black people as doctor's or lawyers that it becomes racist

There's nothing wrong with being a little racist.

>see a bunch of black dudes on RDR2 online

FUN FACT: The guy who made "Blackface" for white people was doing it to get black folk into show business. He legitimately had no hatred towards blacks.

I just find this funny after every chimp-out over it.

>*play black guy*
>"Where's my son?"
Why even give me the choice if you're just going to break my immersion this hard?

Source?

i made bushido brown from the boondocks in soul calibur 5

Shit man, I had a documentary on its complicated history but I can't find it for some reason. Dude literally fed and treated the black people he employed very well.

Why would want to play as a nigger?

>blacks chimp out when people try to help them
pottery

I can because I don't care about being labeled as a racist. I don't, however, since I don't like niggers.

>spend ages designing both
>one immediately dies

fuck you fallout
