I was under the impression that it was based upon European geography and mythology, but was otherwise a fictional world, or so I'd read on the game description. :| But I guess whatever on that point. Not quite sure I see the logic in the characters in game being as they are just to reflect their Gods' images, though.

Naw, but I've seen the works in person, and a supposedly white God made people of all shades. Prismatic divinity or something like that.

So you'll implement it? <3

He's portrayed as white, just like his son.

The point of the suggestion is that, in a Eurocentric gaming world, it'd be a really inclusive thing to do this. The racism is systemic.
Here's the thing. I never actually accused anybody of being racists. You guys determined that one all by yourselves.
Guilty conscience much?

Not half as much as you obnoxious gamer geeks need a good checking of your privilige.

The reason this is hypocritical - Your little fanboys chuck a big tantrum at the IMAGINED suggestion that they 'are racists' as if you can only be a racist if your wearing a klan hood - and I'M the one who needs to lighten up and gain a sense of humour and stop taking things personally?

Your culture is an absolute fucking toiletbowl.
