. Whitey isn't out to get you, you can have both eyes shut when you sleep at night.[/quote]

here is the problemi havent said that so your projecting putting words in my mouth. I challenge you to argue with the diligence of a real man rather than a XBL orator.

yeah i believe in all that white establishment mumbo jumbo, but thats not the problem here. the problem that whites and shit asians are so used to being included in games like these so when one person says can i get some representation or refute a stupid argument saying more whites have been taking out of the game they act like an modern american CALL of DUTY graduate.
non have tried to sit back and look at the situation form a black or Philipino point of view and that is one of the essences of privilege. not having to take the time to look at anothers situation and because of it loosing their sympathy.

and no pocky yoshi I was being sarcastic
complacent with my ficklness or whatever he said

if you can fullheartedly say the lack of other demogrphics in the game is alright with you and that im obviously looking way to into things or im weak for being black and wanting one black peroson in the game, ONE BLACK PERSON JUST ONE. than ill tto stop this futile cause.

ITS A FUCKING VIDEO GAME
 
So for the time being this thread is unlocked. Let's keep it civil but still focus on the hard hitting matters like Jedi culture and how I am amazing.

First off I want to break down the insult given to me by Ichi. "XBL Orator".

I challenge you to argue with the diligence of a real man rather than a XBL orator.

or·a·tor
noun \ˈȯr-ə-tər, ˈär-\
: a person who makes speeches and is very good at making them

1 : one who delivers an oration

2: one distinguished for skill and power as a public speaker

Examples of ORATOR
  1. <though a brilliant wordsmith, Thomas Jefferson was by his own admission an unskilled orator>

So being an XBL orator pretty much means I am awesome. I'm so talented that not even Thomas Jefferson could reach my level of loquaciousness.

And more importantly Ichi, you never responded to my post about Def Jam. This game has bar none more black people than any other culture in it. What do you feel about this? Is that fair to have 99% percent black people in a fighting game? Or should they better represent other cultures?

There's Astaroth.
 
I will say this just because the people who keep saying this are full of shit and don't know what they're talking about. The soul series has ALWAYS been anime but the aesthetics of anime from the 90's when SB was introduced to the anime of SC4 and SC5 era have changed. PS has always pulled their ideas from anime but it seems many of you either ignore that or can't see it.
Pay particular attention to the aesthetics of anime from then to now part people. Amy for example was introduced when the gothic lolita saw a rise in popularity.

Except the anime waifus in SC4. I truly have never seen it this way and have trouble seeing it this way. Look at anime fighters like Guilty Gear and BlazBlue for example. Those have a very strong anime look/feel to them as they were intended to have. Even Tekken seems more anime to me. SC imo is one of the least anime fighters around.

Like I said, the previous games had some anime influence. It wasn't overblown like in SCV.

"I couldn't do anything..." The pain of defeat clutched at Xianghua's heart. She had sworn to destroy Soul Edge, but in the end, she hadn't even been able to stand up against at threat in her path. After reuniting with Kilik, she had faced off with him against the man with the scythe and lost. No. That's not true. The fight had been between Kilik and the man. He had shown no interest in Xianghua, whatsoever. All she could do was carry the unconscious Kilik and run away.

Xianghua tended to Kilik's wounds, but he didn't wake up. She frantically wondered what to do. Xianghua went to see Kilik's teacher, Edgemaster. She was relieved to hear that Kilik would be fine. Entrusting the old man with a letter for Kilik, Xianghua left the hermitage. Upon returning to her own country, Xianghua went to stay with and old general, suggested and arranged by Edgemaster.

"I must become stronger!" Xianghua pleaded with the general. He was surprised to hear this. He had thought that her sword skills, though self-taught, were more than sufficient. Nevertheless, he did what he could to help her. Although he had retired, skilled warriors still gathered under him. Among them was an exceptionally skilled man who he had employed as an instructor. Recognizing her skills included those of the Li-Seng Shu style, he approached her about becoming her training partner. Devoting herself whole-heartedly to her training, she managed to increase her skills significantly in a short period of time. Despite this she was unable to rid herself of the uneasiness in her heart.

"Even if I increase my power, if I can't use it when I need it... When I fought against the cursed sword, Kilik was with me. But if I'm alone..." Xianghua thought to herself, but forced her doubts aside. "No. I mustn't fear. I must keep my spirits up!" "Your blade is keen, however, it appears you are still forcing yourself." One day, her instructor cautioned her. "Sometimes the path of a warrior requires letting in the dark feelings, weighing them, and letting them go."

After this day, she began training her mind. Her heart would be like water, letting all flow through her without breaking. After several months, she felt that she was ready. She bid farewell to her master and set out on her journey once more. When she met up with Kilik, she would proudly say, "Sorry to keep you waiting! I've finally caught up with you!"

I'll give you an example using Siegfried and Sanosuke from rurouni kenshin. They are both young men who fight with big swords that have a troubled past they initially try to run away from but eventually come to accept and atone for their sins.
