You know those folks that get irate whenever there's talk of Idris Elba playing Bond?

Where are they now that this has happened? Surely they're equally outraged about this?

Solar_Crimson posted...
It's both amusing and appalling how much the presence of even one Black person in a mostly-White and fantasy race cast bothers some people.

I said the same thing back when people were throwing melties about Finn in TFA. It's a universe with slug gangsters, force ghosts, fish people, laser swords, and death stars, but they wanna draw the line at humans with dark skin. And it was also odd how those supposed fans didn't seem to know about Lando.

Remember when they took out all the BLM stuff from spiderman?

He criticized immigration due the possibility of white people becoming a minority, spouted false statistics that wealthy black people commit more crimes than poor whites, and questioned if the colonization of Africa by Europeans was a net good for society.
Holy shit I knew JonTron was a piece of shit but I didn't think he was THIS bad.

Not all gamers, etc.

Anyway this pales in comparison to the Grounded Commonwealth mod for Fallout 4 that replaces every (afaik) minority character with a white, fully-voiced (AI powered) alternative and even changes the player dialogue to fit some new dialogue that was also added. The Nexus doesn't host it anymore of course but it can still be found elsewhere

I knew sooner or later AI deepfake stuff would be used in modding, this is just the beginning

Lol this is like the dude who made a white, blue-eyed Little Mermaid for the new one and was all "there, I fixed her. She's no longer woke" and then told people to dm him if they wanted a copy of the movie with that version.

He's not wrong here, but based off everything else you listed he's definitely right for the wrong reason.

Why is it always mods to turn black characters white? How come no one makes mods to turn white characters black? >_>

Oh, you know why...

Economic anxiety.

Race changing a character is stupid, and mods made to do so are even more ridiculous.

"Blacks didn't exist in this region during this era!" Who the fuck cares? It's a god damn game. I don't give two shits about "muh accuracy!" Mods like this annoy the ever loving hell outta me. Are people seriously THAT upset about other races existing? Don't answer that, it's rhetorical.

It's the same even in historical settings where it did happen.
See: Expeditions: Rome for an example or the whole argument with Mary Beard and Twitter over a BBC cartoon.

Wyll is a wizard that you can befriend in Baldur's Gate 3, but he is a minority character and there is this mod on Nexus where you can change his skin tone to something massively lighter.

Also, we later find out that the person behind that mod is likely behind another mod for Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous that makes a minority character Seelah (who is a paladin) the same shade of white.

Yes, but then he doubled down on it later so it mostly just came across as him lying to improve his image.
