Yep , but the people who bought the suit don't say shit about legacies who take up more spots. Everyone just hates black people.
and the same dumbass idiots being used to kill it will then wonder why suddenly they too are getting shafted even more for legacies students AA was their bane and now after they kill it they can go ahead packing the schools with their kids even more

Facts. Only people who have a issue with other being offended by Square Enix and Yoshi P's discrimination are racist, plain and simple.
some of the usual shitposter true but i find most them never knowing about black people existing in europe the victims of whitewashed history lesson like i legit see some people think africa is a country and not a continent who aren't racist but never paid attention in school or had shitty racist uncles teach them that crap

once again our main issue we are taking is the statement that his reason why black people can't appear in this is cuz this is based on medieval europe had he said this country which the story is about a closed off country then this would've been a non issue we are calling out the old tired and shitty logic of saying medieval europe didn't have black people or people of color

yeah but the topic at hand is about black people, not others.
you're welcomed to create another topic about other representations.
and i am joining in with people making it clear why we find this statement about the reason they can't bring in black people in a fantasy story cuz they based it on medievil europe and used the shitty BS that it was pure white back in the day shit cuz bringing in a black person would break muh fantasy realism about a fictional story where people ride giant chickens and dragons and can do magic but nope a black person would be too much it seems to them

why deflect away from the topic about black people?
how am i deflecting if anything i am saying they need to put more mixed japaness people which even you said it your self that are black japaness people in japan in the game but i gave up on it a long time ago cuz the current persona is just not going to tackle that well not the current writers anyway maybe down the line we can hope we got people main characters that aren't just stereotypes
but in the meantime we mostly likely get the good old trope of random transfer studen from aboard who is ether franch or english blonde girl the MC can romance

before 5, all of them are on fictional towns. the location didn't exist in real life.
and black people exist in Japan, so morw reason to include them if you argue about real life.
it's still based on japan tho even if the town are fictional and before 3 person did include a mixed japaness main character lisa as a main member of the party tho she was half white it still at least showed they exist and how they have issue dealing with them feeling left out
and persona 2 also showed a gay character in a non crappy stock comedic light as well

man, can't wait for persona 6 and people getting outraged because there's still no black people in the series.
i won't be mad but more annoyed cuz if we can get lisa from persona 2 a mixed japaness as a main party member dealing with her identity issue in a game then why can't they do the same for other mixed japaness people who feel left out like i get if most of the writer ether never met them or don't want to touch it cuz they don't know how to handle it tho

i think some of you are twisting our words it's not we are saying they must put people of color in this if they want to tell a story of a closed off country we don't mind that and they should've just said that is the reason for that
instead we are calling out the BS of them saying they are going for ''realism'' BS about medievil europe was pure white and that somehow translate in a freaking fantasy story that is a fictional setting must follow that even tho they have freaking dragons and magic but somehow it breaks muh realism if a person of color shows up and that is why we are calling it what it is bullshit logic

Popo was created like, thirty years ago lol. Yes, Japan is a notch or two more likely to have unfortunate portrayals crop up in in popular media just because of their distance from most of that history, but there's been tons of perfectly fine black representation in games and anime, too. Hell, Claudia from Macross predates Mr Popo by like, five or so years <___<
yeh japan had a mix of people who didn't know how to handle black people and then there were some who researched and did them right like macross hell it even had lynn minmay a japanese chinese main girl as the love interest which was rare at the time and still

darn it this sucks but i guess i can take S4 as the finale tho it will always bother me what the finale would've been
S4 was an improvement over 3 imo so some of you should at least give it a watch to wash over the crappy S3 after taste

Are we really going to boycott a game just because there's no Black, Asian, or even Latino representation?
boycott no but you sure as hell bet we will call out the old tired BS that medieval europe didn't have black people or other PoC like that is pure BS plus it worse when they use the same excuse in a freaking fictional fantasy setting like if you have elves and other races why can't people of color exist in them since most of them deal with humans vs other non human why are all the humans purely white

btw for those who are curious i remember that there was a manga about native americans and the MC was also native american so if some are wondering if they ever did than at least you should know some manga writers were interested in their history and did infact writer about it tho i doubt it will get an anime adaption tho

TBH, I don't know but I honestly wouldn't be surprised if there are. FF is well known across the whole world, but their main demograph will always be the Japanese and they gotta pander to them somehow. With that said, from looking at the devs answer, it would absolutely be dumb for him to answer that way and then sprinkle in an Asian character into the main cast or something.
lol i can already see his inverse lore reason if he does that
now see this japaness dude didn't exist in that country but was isekai'ed by a truck so he is safe and makes sense

Silent Hill: F is setting in a rural Japanese village and the story is by Ryukishi07. Being made by a company called Neobards Entertainment.
this just might turnout to be good cuz Ryu07 knows how to write horror well in his VN so i expect the the story to be decent kinda hyped about this

SH2 is my fav from the series and imo it never needed a remake but meh let new players enjoy it i guess but man if they make the combat not be clunky i feel it will miss a core part about why this game was good in how it's gameplay matched the story
