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

pretty much.


Don't think they should be on Eddy tho

It's the new generic caesar, if people didn't voice their opinions and spread ideas like this thread, it would still be like the 90's today.

I feel you. I'm just an older fella that ain't played video games in a while. I guess the fact we're even talking about black people in video games at all, let alone their hairstyle, already impresses me by the standards I knew. But keeping black media representation from becoming generic is always a priority.

No characters with a fukked up nonFBA hairline like mine. Am I not real or something?

What's even more inspiring are the Black devs on major releases people don't even talk about. I was surprised how many Black people worked on Doom Eternal, they put pictures next to the credits, I watched the whole thing like

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.

They never did the fade right hell i dont even think 2K got it right until like 2k17
