Why is race and nationality ignored so much in the lore? (why does the lore fail)

[Abriael]

So according to you humans aren't born with an ingrained need or propensity for the following:

"propensity" is a mighty wide field. Between each of those elements there are millions of variables in the brain of each human, in intensity, orientation, importance, etcetera, etcetera, etcetera.
Mind you, many don't have some of those elements at all.

Basically, you're oversimplifying humanity in a way that, if applied to any product, (games included) would lead to a monumental failure.

When marketrers talk about branding to different segments, they aren't saying there are different averages. They are saying that different cultures, different time periods, different social groups, different nationalities, different languages, etc, all effect how people respond to things or what appeals to people.

Which means exactly that there are thousands of different averages (some of which bunched together to create a target,some cannot), just with a slightly different wording.

You say it's "the best way to convey complex lore" when in reality you just mean it's the easiest.

Nope. It's the best considering the limitations of realism.

And yes, I agree, I am severely underpaid considering I have to tell everyone how to do their job.

Luckily for us all, you don't "have" to, but you seem to be oddly obsessed with the idea of doing it.
