>#gamessowhite we can play with 718 diverse pokemon but one diverse trainer is too much.

>#gamessowhite that "historical accuracy there were no black people in Europe but dragons oh yeah totally" is an excuse gamedevs give

>#GamesSoWhite I am getting more hatred for wanting more skin colours in a fantasy game than I did writing about the death penalty.

>#GamesSoWhite including a character that isn't white and isn't a stereotype - that's "unrealistic/disingenuous/pushing an agenda/propaganda"

I wonder if anybody pointed out to the SJW that Pokemon started in a fantastic version of Japan's Kanto region.

Also, BoingBoing is a SJW hipster-trash blog that spends more time bitching about nerdy things being "problematic" than enjoying nerdy things.

Except looking at banana things "just look at it my penis" and that one smelly hipster that insists that he can't smell bad because of mental illness not using soap.

Don't these people have better uses for their time than getting mad at inconsequential shit over the interwebs?

>718

Asians are Schrödinger's Minority: depending on what best serves the SJW's needs at the time, they're either another suppressed minority whose history and culture must be respected, or not different enough from Caucasians to count as diverse. The latter is mostly used against manga, anime and Japanese videogames, where a phenomenon called mukokuseki makes Asian characters be interpreted as white by westerners.

So because of that, pokémon trainers look white to SJW, which means they obviously are, which means they feel justified in using the "why dragons but not black people" argument. Nevermind the mainline games set in an America equivalent had plenty of black people. Nevermind the ones after those took place in Pokéfrance and DID offer the possibility to play as a black person. Gotta keep the complaint train rolling, and facts are oppressive.

Here's another junk article and it's bbs thread:

>Pretends there are no iconic or at least successful games with little to no violence.

>Pretends vidya is filled with rape outside of niche examples.

>Poster in thread points out that Dragon Crown's playable women were diverse. Another posters posts Penny Arcade comic that pretends huge breasts are like having a giants penis.

>Poster supports mass banning of problematic vidya.

>>#gamessowhite we can play with 718 diverse pokemon but one diverse trainer is too much.

you can be a black male or female in Pokemon XY, mainly because it's the first pokemon game where you can customize your trainer AT ALL beyond the gender choice. And they took that out in ORAS.

I'm sure some autistic pokefan corrected them on twatter at the time, but it bears repeating here. I should have to try hard to refute such nonsense, but I was done at the first sentence.

Women complain for the sake of complaing anon. Let them whine. Any constructive suggestions will be dismissed as 'mansplaining' anyway.

Some people just like to complain to get attention.
