Gamers, why are developers giving every Black character the Killmonger haircut?

You forgot one OP…

If it weren't for a receding hairline I would have it too

 

[TheSuperkick!]

I admit, it's over exposed now. Just like back when EVERY female character had half her head shaved and pulled over to the side. (a la Gwen from Spiderverse) And celebrity women were doing it in real life too. Miley, Rosario and Pressly come to mind for that.

It's lazy really because for YEARS people have been calling out game devs and artists for not showing the myriad of black hairstyles over the years and now they've all pounced on this one and said "here damn!"

Boosie fade ain't a flat top

........... modified flaptop it's still trash bruh

I mean, what's wrong with it? It's the popular hairstyle now. Better this than every black character having a fade or some shyt.

The fade was a popular cut and it still is

Because they are lazy that’s why

 

[AceMan]

1. they aint know black people hair could do that

2. black panther the only non-slave black movie they seen

This is the right answer

S*** is definitely overly played out now

rihanna popularized that style and everyone copied her both in real life and in fictional media

it's nowhere near as inorganic as this, imo
