Seeking Are there any games with a black main character?

It's true that IR porn predominantly uses raceplay (and usually quite clumsily), although I've noticed that there are a lot more high-quality interracial scenes in recent times where they mostly drop that aspect and stick to the sex. Or at least there are studios that don't make it their sole focus, which is some progress. I guess with volume comes variety. If interracial porn is only ghettoised, then they're going to stick to what they know will sell to their niche (ie, raceplay), but if it becomes accepted as regular porn, then that treatment is going to end up diluted.

For what it's worth, there are a number of porn viewers from all races who'd like them to drop the racial aspect and just treat it like regular porn, but I guess it'll take a while longer for that to be commonplace.

Also, pretty sure I've seen a few interracial scenes with black female performers running their mouth off (think it was Diamond Jackson), and if I'm being honest, they were hilariously fun.
I’ll admit I’m not into it so I can’t speak for every single case. But the times I did see it, and especially in the games you can play here that have that the focus is on race. And it’s always one sided. And it’s always talking shit about white men or disparaging them. Fucking the girl is not about how hot she is or hell even how good sex is but about humiliating white dudes.

Diamond Jackson did do a few solo scenes I think where she got into some white on black race play but that’s on her rather than someone else doing that to her.

IR will never be on the level of regular porn.
And then look at the games here where the focus is on IR. From aborting white babies to sterilization of white men etc. Imagine the reaction to opposite.

Those games (Bully and the like) are crazy, but they're not even from a black person's perspective, they're riding some extreme humilation cuckold NTR fetish, which is equally insulting to both races involved. But when black MCs as regular people are not popular, those are the roles that they get relegated to - the non-threatening sidekick, or the cartoonishly evil antagonist. From what I understand, OP was just asking if there are games where a black guy goes through one of the regular 'tenant-landlady' routines, which is a far cry from the previously-mentioned freakshows.

If someone with enough passion comes along and creates a blockbuster hit with a black mc, and it gains a lot of patrons, you can bet we'll see other devs follow that new trend like how they did with the incest craze. You can't get the next big thing without taking a chance on a new concept. Yea sure there's no guarantee it will make money but the opposite is also a possibility.
Unfortunately, even in that scenario, I don't see people taking the black MC as the reason for its success, unless it's a proper lightning-in-a-bottle scenario where the black experience is key to why the game works so well. Even then, doubtful.

Look at GTA: San Andreas. It was a monster hit, but that didn't really increase the number of black MCs in regular games. Or The Wire, which was a tremendous show featuring a largely black cast, but didn't really lead to a burst of new shows trying to mimic its vibe. If anything, what I'd expect most copycats to do when they see a groundbreaking game/movie/show starring a black MC is to try replicate it, except with a white MC.

I agree that it has to be a labour of passion which ignores the bottom line and can afford to flip the finger to the haters. If enough people are interested and can pool their resources, maybe it can get done faster.

1. Most people don't have a black perspective. Most devs and players aren't black. People who don't care about race won't care if the MC is black and thus the race will just be cosmetic. Those who do will want them to be a certain way which usually involves heavy raceplay.

2. Most black models in Daz are really bad. Male that is. Women are better, but most black dudes are just white dudes with skin turned black which looks hilariously bad. Look at Elenas life for example.

3. People don't know how to make black characters. From looks to mentality. Wanna know something funny? For longest time in the world most games here used male anus model for female characters (I made a thread about it) because they either didn't know the difference in looks, or simply didn't care enough to make one. A lot of black girls in these games have ultra pink pusies and their asshole is brighter than the rest of their skin. Thinking Sisterly lust, loved that game but found the black girl in it really badly made.

4. Most people are really not attracted to people of other races. Yeah its 2020 and all but that's the reality.

You don't seem to understand how these things work, changing the characters race is not some new idea that people will warm up to. People have a preference for characters of their own race, especially with wish fulfillment, it's marketing 101.

As sex games are something white virtue signalers don't care for and I think it's safe to say that Asian and white guys prefer their own, the only real way for consistent black characters is for black people to pay for it.
I do understand that, and you can't just assume everyone has a preference to their own race. Also you just restated the same argument someone else said but in a different way. My only point I was trying to make is that its not impossible to have a hit, nothing to due with virtue signalling or the status quo.

1. Largely true, although having played numerous games with white protagonists (and not really having any cognitive dissonance while doing so), I'd simply appreciate a MC with a skintone closer to mine just for a change, even if the gameplay is as vanilla as it gets. I don't have a problem playing white characters per se. If I did, I'd be locking myself out of a wealth of culture. But a little variety would go a long way. Then again, that's probably a minority opinion, so I don't expect it to be catered to anytime soon.

2+3. Good point, when the tools aren't available, the incentive to create something along these lines is heavily diminished.

4. Not sure I'd agree completely there. If the argument is on the lines of black people being seen as undesirable, then yes, that prejudice runs deep in many cultures. But just presuming that the status quo will never change would be a bit defeatist. Diversity is considerably better these days in mainstream pop culture, and even if it takes a lot longer to trickle down to adult gaming, doesn't hurt to hope in the meantime.

I don't assume everyone does but it's the norm, I know most people have a preference although they may pretend otherwise because it's socially unacceptable to admit so and I didn't say it's impossible to have a hit and that wasn't your point, you made the mistaken belief that a hit game with a black protagonist would make people like them more. I like Will Smith but it doesn't make me want to watch movies with any black actor

It does have to do with virtue signalers because some people don't understand why these games are different from say a Netflix show. To Netflix, virtue signalers are a market, but to a Dev making a sex game, they are not.

It's not a market yet, but we'll see in the future. I won't be arguing why a black mc is viable financially or not anymore because I feel I'm starting to internalize this position too much and this wasn't my original intention. My intention for this thread was to find roommate/landlady games with a black mc.

4. Don’t misunderstand. I’m not saying black people are unattractive or something like that. Simply that most people are attracted innately to people of their own race. There’s the opposite of course where they hate their own and date only those of others but that’s a rarity and more of a fetish. Black women prefer black men. White women prefer white men. Asian women prefer Asian men. The only outlier I noticed are black men who mostly prefer white women.

I'm amazed this thread managed to stay civil considering the previous shit shows I've seen on here about race to the point they got locked. Theres hope for this community yet. As for black male mc's they definitely are a rarity at least in the sense of not playing the NTR and/or rapey guy.

I know im 2 years late but I think the fact that theres was no suggestion of incest games with black MCs is saying something. I'm not white but I still play these games because more often than not the story is really good, or it has really good looking animations and renders. I think its been said here before but devs could give us these stories just as they are but with MCs that arent just white guys. Someone mentioned that black daz models dont look good and thats just not true, literally 10 seconds into a google image search of "daz3d black characters" i see a plethora of really great looking black characters, all with different hairstyles, some with lighter skin tones, some with darker skin tones. OP I wish i had some suggestions for you but im looking for some just like you.

Whenever it gets released, the new update of Heavy Five will now offer the option of white or black as well as male or female MC.

I'm a big fan of all the devs and appreciate all the work they put in to these games, I was wondering if there are any games with a black mc because as a black man myself it's always weird naming my white characters my very African name lol.
You should play "candid urban muffs"
