Will I Be Able To Be Black?
« on: August 31, 2010, 03:50:30 pm »
I honestly couldn't think of another name for this thread. I apologise.

I was just wondering - with the character customisation, will there be different skin tones available?
I'm Caucasian so I have no idea why I'm asking, but I guess a lot of MMOs don't have the option to change skin colour which, in my humble opinion is:
A) Lazy
B) A wee bit racist?

I know that I will make my character look like myself as much as possible, and I know a lot of other people want to also, but if they're black, that's gonna be difficult.



EDIT: I realise that I said it's "a wee bit racist" when it's mainly just laziness, but it can be a little offensive if you don't have your race included in a game.
Which is why I loved WoW, since I am a strange bull-man.

I can't say for sure, but there weren't any 'black' sprites in the prebeta.

You could have posted your thread in the 'Suggestions' area.

If a problem can be solved, no need to worry about it. If it cannot be solved what is the use of worrying?

Currently playing Final Fantasy XII and Pokemon Black. Looking for a cheap-er 3DS than those 300 EUR ones here. Otherwise, getting tons of work and things to learn. Fun fun...

That's a good point, and well made. I think I will. :D
