"Most" is the operative word there. But sure, you could argue it, but I'm talking about humanity in general, not individuals. Individuals can all decide anything no matter how wild or crazy it might be - whether they're right or wrong. If we're talking individual definitions instead of general accepted ones, there's no reason to talk because we can just twist anything to mean anything. It's stupid and a waste of time to do. It's a trick people use to argue the inarguable.
Regardless, differences between species are fun. It's
actual diversity. Unlike the fake diversity that demands everything be smothered in the grey expanse of "sameness". You can't have diversity without "difference".
I like stories where elves are "better" than humans and we step up to the plate anyway. I also like "Humanity, Fuck Yeah!" stories where humans are the most dangerous species in the universe because we come from a level ten deathworld. Why? Simple:
Differences make stories interesting. Unlike some others in this thead (not you, AFAIK, but others have done this) I'm not so pathetic that I need to argue about a fantasy race not being better than my own. That's just insecurity to the fucking extreme. I mean shit... a race that has magic, lives longer, and in all other ways has everything we do, but it can't be "better" than us?
Delusional at best, inscure patheticism at worst. Especially when the MC is probably going to somehow be one of these "Eldari". There's just no need for it. It's ridiculous for people to be so weak in their own self-image that they have to argue that a
fictional race can't possibly be "better" than them. That's just a new level of loser.
Besides,
actual racism would be that game where the black people are
literally the result of white people fucking orcs.
There's a game like that on this site. It's fucked up. Which is a shame, because the game itself is pretty good. But for the author to have decided to make
that a thing in the game... What a waste.
