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

nah Ekko was before BP I believe

 

[Big Blue]

I'm confused, are we supposed to be upset that a past maligned natural African hairstyle is more accepted now????

 

[Hey_zeus]

Because cacs and rice cacs obsess over certain aesthtics we have from time to time. This is it to them currently. All they see because it's cool and they like it

Gave then the Tariq fade

The shyt was iconic and Killmonger was one of the best villains we’ve seen.

Im still wondering what the hell was he thinking. He the one always talking about who zesty and bussy this and that

 

[YOGEBEAR09]

They been giving this to damn near every black male character, even took eddy who had dope locs and gave him the shyt and it aint even a style you see like that in reality and dudes don't see why no one like the shyt

It's overused, be creative.

 

[AquaCityBoy]

A new black superhero with the Killmonger haircut and electrical powers

 

[Digital Shaman]

Black Panther is to blame but at least we dont have those terrible afros anymore.

The new trend same with

• White male characters with buzzcuts
• Asian female characters with purple highlights in hair.
• Female characters with half shaved heads.
• Female characters with bow and arrows as weapons.
• Female character with tank tops

shyt is nuts.

You'd think that waves would be a commonly depicted hairstyle for a black character due to how common it is in real life, but I've yet to see it in a AAA game. Does 2K even have an option for it?

Matter of fact, I live in Cali and have only seen that Kilmonger cut maybe 6 times in my 5+ years here

It took them a decade to get past the giant afro and cornrows. We gotta work with these folks, mayne.

I actually commend 2k on their range of black hair options. You could have the waves with the half moon part in your head like God's Son himself

I like it, just not on Eddy gordo

I got dreads so I’m cool with it. I’m not into waves or super short haircuts.
