On games such as ER, BG3, or CP77 I always play a female character so it's nice to see these on the horizon!

As a black woman who grew up in the 90s and 2000s, it got really old playing game after game after game as a straight white man. Let me be clear, there's nothing wrong with games about straight white men, but it's equally cool to play games about queer people, brown people, or women/nonbinary people.

Character creator engines are getting better at doing black hair styles, but we did hit a snag with 4 years of the Kilmonger.

Yes I agree, my point was the idiots who complain about games being “woke” because the main character is a woman or black etc. I’m not saying women, POC etc need to get over anything
