Hot Sauce 2,734 Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 Stop, please, I can't. RE4 -> TotK -> D4 -> FF16 is just too much gaming. I wish I was a lemming. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Twinblade★ 3,936 Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 Of course Eurogamer gave it a 3/5 because there’s too many white people and not enough diversity. Some of these outlets are an embarrassment. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Leaving aside the fact that there were Black and brown people in medieval Europe, this justification rings hollow given that several locations take open inspiration from north Africa and the Middle East, with towns that, for example, riff on Islamic architectural traditions and attire, but are predominantly or exclusively populated by anglophone white people (I hedge, here, simply because I haven't been around and talked to everybody). I find the deletion of people of colour from these spaces more sinister than the racial stereotypes of older Final Fantasies, particularly in a game that wants to talk about overcoming structural injustice and bringing people together. That "togetherness" is worth fighting for, but it's characterised here by what it excludes. " jesus... 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tears of the Cows 1,213 Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 To quote Gamespot: if you buy Final Fantasy XVI, do not also claim to be a black ally if you do buy the game. Being an ally means being willing to give something up, and what's more, to stand up for those who are vulnerable. We must do better. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
