Cornell confirmed fair
 
People need some history lessons, The First Industrial Revolution didn't took place until later in the 17th century, until this time the Americas were overlooked colonies, so basically Europe was "isolated".
Second Europe is a very rich place, Russians, Spanish, Portuguese, Danish, Swedish, all of them have very distinct cultures.

Distinct cultures? Sounds like Hitler talk. Be more like ICHI_BOTOSAI, he's the only non racist in this whole thread. Hell, he may be the only non racist in the whole world. He is a truly pure and fair man.

i aint never said i was non racist, shit ill prolly be the first to be racist and prolly the only in public but you took that spot first so oh well
 
Not being able to connect or relate to the characters is the most shallow argument I've heard about "cultural representation" ever. I never had trouble relating to Will Smith because I'm not black, or Lyra Belacqua because I'm not female, or Fox McCloud because I'm not an anthropomorphic fucking fox.

If you can't connect to a character, if you can't relate or feel welcomed by them just because of the colour of your skin, I think you need to be asking yourself who's being racist here.

This thread was cancer until this post. And Ichi, I'm black too, and in no way do I see Alex's comments being racist. Relax man.

yeah ok thats funny

but
if you asked for one black charcater to be put in a game that was already in it and somebody told you to shut up and go play def jam becasue it was 95% black you wouldnt be a little offended?

didnt say i couldnt relate to other characters and their is nothing wrong with feeling welcome in a place where people of the same genotype reside unless you keep others out because they are different. yes i am forcing america's cultural understanding of race on SC of everyone being represented but its a worlwide game that should be a given.
 
Even if it was unrealistic, I think black people in Soulcalibur'd be one of those acceptable breaks from realism.

You know, like not being stone dead after you go a round with Siegfried's ironing board sized chopper, jumping about twice as high as the other person's head with that Mitsurugi move and Ezio frickin' Auditore.
 
Demons, lizardmen, golems, vampires, ghost pirates, half-thong-gods that shoot bubbles, dragons, giants

And black peoples in 1600 Europe are unrealistic? :D

Yeah, just after I wrote that I pictured Yoshimitsu hovering above my head using his sword like a helicoptor's rotor, samurai mummy face contorted as he howled about the importance of realism.

... He didn't really convince me.
