I know some will hate me, but I'm trying to make a Lightning/Hope Main/Pawn in Dragon's Dogma right now :3

When was the last time there was a black male lead character? All this talk of character creation has made me curious. I cant think of any off the top of my head.

I was just thinking of a new game in general.

The Walking Dead

Starhawk

Thats nice to see. Ive heard alot about the walking dead. How was starhawk?

 

[G-Fex]

The Walking Dead

ah well, never played it.

 

[DY_nasty]

Prototype 2 as well.

 

[SoilBreak]

Prototype 2

edit:damn :'[

 

[G-Fex]

Prototype 2 as well.

oh shit I forgot about this.

Only thing that bothered me about Prototype 2 is why is he dressed so similar to the first guy?

 

[Shabutaro]

Prototype 2 as well.

Forgot about that one too. Its nice to see at least a little bit of color atleast.

Starhawk

it's too bad the game didnt sell that well. Now you know this will be used as an excuse to never put a black character in a lead role again.

Unfortunatley is a sad trap we fall into. When we do well its exceptional, and when we fail its cause were black. I want to say america wouldn't have a problem playing with more black characters, but public lashback to minorities in media always proves me otherwise

Did you play the game? Was it pretty good?

The Knicks are #1 in the east?

what universe is this

And Memphis is #1 in the West.

Up to about 18 (in my self hatin phase) I'd always make a white character because anything else just looked odd in a game. After that, I recreate myself or as close as possible.

With the character creation thread happening on the gaming side, I think it's finally time for me to bring this up: do you always try to make black characters whenever you have to deal with a character creator in a game? I didn't even think it was worth trying in Dragon Age but I think I did a pretty decent job with Mass Effect.

ME pisses me off. Some reason it doesn't allow you to make a negro. Sure you can get close like yours redswirl but a negro is impossible. Amazing considering its a multi million selling AAA game and how much they boast about its creation features.

EDIT: I say negro instead of black because you can make someone with black skin, it just looks like a dark white person though. I just play with default Shepard and just ignore the creator.

 

[DrFunk]

My beef was with trying to get a decent fade/Cesar in Morrowind/Oblivion/Skyrim...shit looked atrocious

 

[Slayven]

Was in Walmart and they had Wii Us 4 deep for each color. And about 7 tons of skylander shit. Those figures are expensive. Man I remember trying to get my mom to buy a 5 dollar turtle figure. Kids today have to have balls to ask for a 15 dollar one.

 

[LowerLevel]

I always play Redguard/Black Females in first playthroughs in Bethesda games. Or any character creation games. And as close to as dark as possible too unless it's dramatically too dark like a bad anime or some shit.

Man I can't wait for the next Fallout. Hope it's not too buggy...

 

[DominoKid]

so rick ross is cancelling the rest of his tour because of poor management or something like that lol.

Evidently they can hold him back.

 

[RedSwirl]

And yet the top-selling game ever released on a PlayStation system is San Andreas.

Nope, I'm not much of a warhawk guy. I saw its demise coming from a mile away though. Like all underperforming titles there was massive hype upon announcement and a good 6 months before release, but once it was 1 to 2 months until its release everything went silent. No marketing, no nothing

 

[Slayven]

How is word on GTA 5, I think you play as 2 different brown people?

Marlon Wayans

What about him?

 

[Devolution]

Literally 3/4 Wicked Attraction eps so far are women with no fucking courage or self-esteem helping some dude who's a sexual sadist kidnap, rape and torture girls/women. The fuck is wrong with these broads.

That show doesn't sound healthy

 

[Professor Beef]

PTW must've found out that Marlon doesn't like sugar in his grits.

 

[PartTimeWarrior]

What about him?

He was being interviewed on the VGA carpet and you can tell he's struggling with roles

 

[Slayven]

Wayans finally doing movies again?

All those Scary Movie movies probably weren't helping matters.

 

[Slayven]

The VGA thread is killing me, all those too cool for school and video games is serious business guys.

To be fair, this shit is so cringe-worthy, it makes BET Awards look professional

But if it was as professional as the Tonys no one would watch it.
