Yeah I understand. Still the reason I can't play Sonic to this day. I'm a yellow hedgehog. Immersion is ruined, everytime.
I know you’re trying to be cute but you gave a terrible example. Sonic is a male character so it works. You can make outlandish comparisons all you want but the majority of Americans feel the same and it’s not going to change my personal opinions on my game choices.
lol it's very normal behavior to have an easier time identifying with a cartoon hedgehog than a black man.
Fucking weirdo
So you can relate to a blue male hedgehog more than a black man?
So Sonic looks more like you than Aloy?
I actually hate sonic. HZD is an infinitely superior game.
Cool job sidestepping the question.
I don't believe you. You got a source for that?
Anyway, so you're saying that gender is a bigger gap for you to cross than species? You, a human, are better able to roleplay as a fucking bipedal hedgehog than a human woman? Maybe you should take a step back and try to figure out why that is.
This is a claim that requires a source.
What games do you play? I don't know of many games with a male Hispanic lead character and you apparently need to identify with the lead character through ethic and gender based connections, but not species based connections.
Americans aren't representative of the entire world and to be perfectly frank, I don't trust the judgement of a majority of Americans anymore, y'all make dumb decisions that fuck up the world.
Mate, cmon you can't have personal opinions that don't align with the hive mind or your a bigot.
/s for all the brain dead cunts around here
yes the issue in question is that your opinion is nonconforming not that it's a straight up bigoted opinion
