That's good for YOU but you don't represent the masses. Native Americans are still being treated like dirt in this country, especially after this past weekend with those stupid kids mocking the protester. Being Huron, you understand the damage some of these characters do to a community who's culture is already being diminished and mocked for centuries. If it's not done right, it means nothing. They're profiting off these characters, the least they can do is get the blessing and make them as accurate as possible.
Are you Native American? I've seen actual Native American people upset at inaccurate representations far more than I've seen Natives saying "I'm not offended". Regardless if you are or not offended, the rest of the community is and that's more important.
Maybe I don't but I sure as shit represent it a lot better than you, so don't go telling me the characters I loved growing up are somehow racist against me.
I'm sure if you grew up a Redskins fan or a Cleveland Indians fan, you wouldn't think those were racist either now would you?
And this is why people like you will never be able to design such characters. Ignoring stuff like this only hurts communities that you're trying to profit off of. You can't get far in this world with a stubborn approach to insensitive & racist caricatures of characters you draw belonging to a community you don't belong to.
You telling a native person how they should feel about native representation, actually is low-key racist FYI.
Money speaks louder than feelings unfortunately.
Are you?
Some gays and black people support Trump.
Not telling you how to feel, simply telling you what I've seen the past few years from actual Native American communities and their opinion on things representing them. You should try speaking to more people in your community and get a better understanding as to why they're offended. If it doesn't offend you, that's great, but don't be ignorant to it's effect on thousands of Native Americans and the implications these stereotypes hold.
It's not a few, it's the community the character is meant to represent.
Wait what, so I am just some self loathing 'injun to you then? Get fucked bud.
Hi we aren't all mystical hobbits that live in giant teepee communities together. I am just a dude who lives in an apartment in a small town. The people in "my community" are the loud neighbours upstairs and the guy who owns the comic store across the street.
That user started it with an unnecessary rude remark about the sudden increase in inclusivity (specifcally a reference to the LGBT) and you extended it with your random anecdote about not caring about how others feel.
Do you feel trolled yet?
Honestly, from some of the things you have said in this thread, it does sound like you're self loathing since you're more concerned with yourself and your fighting game character role models than actual Native American people but to each his own I guess.
More telling me how I should feel about things. You actually are a racist. I don't fit whatever little mold you think I belong in so you don't like it. Most SJW types don't realize they are worse than the imaginary bigots they decry.
Nightwolf is one of my faves actually. I love the character and I know NRS/WB would never make the mistake of releasing a culturally insensitive character in this climate because unlike you, they're professionals and practical.
i didnt even know that was a thing, probably because i'm not much of a tanya fan to begin with.
And of course that's fine, but I was more so referring to the blatant transphobia and mocking representation-neither of which are ever okay by any group.
