Please don't spread falsehoods about my game, especially if you haven't played it.

1. There is no racism in my game. None whatsoever. And even if it were, it wouldn't be the first game to do it.

2. The comment you're replying to is also wrong. No one who says the n word in this game is white. The only one who has said it so far is a girl by the name of Ayana and I've established in this thread multiple times already that she's a girl of color. And it's only been used twice. Trust me, I've felt the urge to drop it damn near every sentence because that's how I talk in real life. But I understand how unattractive it is, so I've kept it VERY tame.

3. I'm a black kid from the hood. A part of myself is in every fiber of this story, and that includes dialogue. I understand there will be people on the outside looking in feeling pretty uncomfortable about the use of such language, but by all means, either skip over it or don't play it at all. Just because I use the word doesn't mean I expect y'all to use it, or even be okay with it. But it's not gonna stop popping up. If that's problematic for you or anyone else, please don't even download it.

I played through the game and loved it, At no time did i feel that any race or culture was being belittled or disparaged.
My God when did Society change To put so much power in a words?? Words only have the power you give them.

This is an issue with many forms of race, and it is majorly glossed over. Even when in correct context. One race can say something to each other, but whenever a different race says it, it's the end of the world and wrong. However, it's completely off-topic really and I didn't find it a problem personally in the game other than I was surprised it was there. Certainly didn't bother me.

Aye, I ain't sayin all that. The floor's yours bruh :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO:

On a more serious note though, hopefully without turning this into a debate we don't need, I've never been connected (no pun intended) to the word like others are, so I've never cared who actually says it. Perhaps I should care, I don't know. I found the word by hood culture. Always knew it was derogatory. Always knew it was considered "racist" or at the very least dangerous when others said it. But I've never dealt with the "hate" of the word. That may be why I am how I am.

More than that, I've just....never cared about words like that. I'll never encourage it, but I don't have a problem with it either. I honestly don't give a fuck about anything that ain't got shit to do with me on a personal level.

As far as I'm concerned, anyone has the right to say what they want. But be mindful of who, when and where if you not tryna face the consequences.

The "N word" in the game didn't phase me because I know that's how some people talk to each other, I've seen it firsthand when hanging out with my friends. I also know that, as a white man, if I was to say it that I'd be ripped apart for it (deservedly so) by those same friends. In an odd way the use of it made the game feel more "real" to me.

Regardless this is a great game. I am happy to support it and I look forward to seeing Ayana and everyone again soon. Don't let this distract you from the awesomeness that is your game. :)

From the country where you can not see even one negro in your entire life, except from tv and internet, all these dances around that word seems so stupid and tiresome.
p.s. "Understanding look to the Albanian higher."

So you were in your early 20's right? The way you think restores my faith in western society.

You know, even though American society and ethnic division are quite different from what we have in the rest of the world (I'm writing from Southern Europe) your cultural influence is soooo huge around the world that we still have to deal with this type of ridiculous debates that have nothing to do with our everyday reality. I'm really happy to see that across the pond opinions don't have to be black or white (no pun intended either) but there are more shades to it than the media let us know and some people choose to use their heads.

Keep doing your fantastic job, and as you said yourself, write the story you want and how you fucking want. And keep providing dark-skinned women, man; the genre is really in need of those :HideThePain:

The genre needs more diversity in MCs too. So tired of the 18 year old white boy with a horse dick trying to fuck his mom, sister, aunt, cousin, etc. I mean at least make the family something besides pasty white!
