Topic.

Seems like it only ever seems to divide people more.

The reality is that the real world is not politically correct. Everyone from every race, gender, and culture is different.

I can't imagine a politically correct GTA game working. Their games are always inclusive, and make believable characters that people enjoy. Someone like Trevor does absolutely everything under the sun and people fucking love him.

All making something politically correct does is make an otherwise fun game boring. Like Hogwarts Legacy.

Well, Martinet isn't doing Mario's voice anymore so maybe he won't be such a stereotype

Yes you can be politically correct and still be offensive. When you offend everyone equally you are PC.

I'm actually very liberal. I just have different views about videogames and films.

I prefer it when they reflect actual real world elements.

You flew too close to the sun on this one. Try not to give the game up so quickly, next alt.

Their games are always inclusive

If it's inclusive then it's politically correct. If you find it inclusive but people of a different race find it cringe, then that's a major problem.

Yes. When western developers design a game they are striving for art. When Japanese developers design a game they focus on entertainment first.

You don't see fanservice in western games because they are more focused on having a narrative.

His accent was the only thing stereotypical and is it wrong to have a accent when it's a real thing people have?

It wasn't even a bad one. They wanted him to originally have a Brooklyn accent.
