A term I've constantly heard white people use to discern the difference between the word ending with ga or ger. It's one of those they want to say the word too so ga is an affectionate term of endearment while ger is a hateful slur. It's tiptoeing to the line without saying it.
Ok, I know it from the movie industry where hard pg-13/hard R means it pushes the rating to its limit
Say more on this.Now I see why they didn't put Black people in it.
I didn't understand SE's game, and now I do. I ain't even mad at them for it.
After playing this, them not putting black people in at all is super whack. It probably could have been one of the most impactful FF games to date if they would have consulted black people and used black characters in parallel with bearers
Anyone of the "main characters" could have been black.
They had characters as close to black as possible but made sure to make them have prominent white features.
People talking about it they glad it didn't have black people because it deals with slavery and hatred are tripping.
Y'all being ok with them erasing black people from the game in order to avoid someone taking something the wrong way is wild.
Sup my BearaThe slaves are called “Bearers” and the term is used as a derogatory insult throughout the game
As in, “You stinky fukkin Bearers need to stay away from me”

Y’all have got to stop asking, no begging non black game developers to put black characters in their games. Especially the Japanese, knowing their infinite circle jerk with white people. It’s really pathetic to watch.I've mentioned before that I've always thought creating a 100% cacc'd out fantasy world was the creator being lazy or just straight up
White authors can acknowledge POC in their fictional medieval worlds without being weird about it. Authors of the popular Malazan books did it fine and in Joe Abercrombie's The First Law series one of his books even takes place in a setting that's an analog to North Africa. One thing I like about him is that even though his realm is mostly human races he doesn't shy away from his cac characters being racist. In his recent trilogy he even explored the MAGA mindset with one of his POV characters.

I wish we could have more black main characters in a lot of games but i had to realize that you can’t ask non blacks to do that for you. Though we should support companies that do take that extra mile like capcom with street fighter 6..
I'm not asking or begging for anything. I used to world build as a hobby and I'm just pointing out these creators making these big fantasy worlds are choosing to be narrow and bland for dubious reasons and they can do better, I don't care where they're from.
You sound broken.Y’all have got to stop asking, no begging non black game developers to put black characters in their games. Especially the Japanese, knowing their infinite circle jerk with white people. It’s really pathetic to watch.

Ehh.. I kind of disagree with this line here. Why does everything involving black people have to deal with some sort of slavery or oppression? I mean black people could've been in the game but to automatically equate black people with them being the "bearers" is kind of miserable.After playing this, them not putting black people in at all is super whack.

You're right it doesn't have to, I only phrase it like this because they mention on how they wanted a "realistic" take on things. So instead of just erasing black people just have the parallel. *They* are already doing their best to erase black history from schools and books here in the US, so a major franchise like FF completely omitting black people in this day and age talking about realism when some of the things you do in this game are far beyond that concern...
Shinichiro Watanabe has been directing anime since the 90s and here's what he had to say about adding diversity to his work:
This video does a better job explaining on how I feel about this entire matter.
Coming from a man begging and crying for a group that’s looks nothing like him to include them in their games. It’s called being realistic, I’m sorry to hurt your feelings and telling you that non black people don’t care about you.You sound broken.
My only contribution to this topic is that you sound broken.Coming from a man begging and crying for a group that’s looks nothing like him to include them in their games. It’s called being realistic, I’m sorry to hurt your feelings and telling you that non black people don’t care about you.
