Character Creation Has A Race Problem

[Sigma-Astra]

But it does matter, lmao. If I mentioned a Hyur, why would people be bringing up every other race, but? That showcases an inability to stay on topic. If my gripe was with the others, I would have mentioned the others. This doesn't have to be the Sims. Division, Guild Wars, Dragon Age, Mass Effect, Elder Scrolls, etc all have sense enough to be inclusive as they are aware of their audience. I'm not gonna sit here and say they're the best at it, but the effort was made. Clearly the FFXIV community is not fond of inclusivity as evinced by the responses. So because you and a few others are fine with the way things are, and are represented

How is a dark-skinned, white haired catgirl represented irl? You let me know. Also, you are blatantly assuming that I'm even white behind this screen. Real nice. That doesn't help your argument as much as you think it does honestly. You don't know me, you are blatantly assuming that I'm white simply because I'm calling you out on your ridiculous crusade. I never specified my skin tone and it's none yo business to know either.

yet there are people on this thread suggesting that the black and brown gamers who pay the exact same sub, should be acquiescent and accept walking around as white-washed Hyurs that don't look like them. Maybe they don't like the other races aesthetically. While some people grasp the point I'm making, many can't grasp that double standard which is clearly indicative of an intellectual deficit. You literally lose nothing. If anything you gain as well. Hell, for all I know maybe there are people here who want to utilize those same types of customizations even if it doesn't reflect them IRL. A lot of black and brown gamers don't even speak up because of backlash like this, but I don't mind being the martyr, cause everybody can catch this virtual hands, lmao. Let's go.

That is some leap of logic you've got there. Let me tell ya.
