Racial diversity amongst humans in andromeda?

You know, every time I see one of these threads I think of Poe's law. I can never tell if this is satire or what you actually think.

I like it that way.

I vaguely remember a thread like this on the bsn but I'm not sure....

A copy pasta option wasn't there?

Tactical Cloak has been replaced by Tactical Squat.

Of all the humans we've seen so far, one is of indeterminate ethnic origin, two are black, three can be altered on the whims of the player, one is white, one appears to be Middle Eastern/South Asian, and once looked either hispanic or east asian.

I'm sure we're fine with the diversity.

Unless you're one of those "I'm tired of this liberal tears diversity push cuz we only have one confirmed white person even though the marketing is depicting the two main characters as their white defaults!" types.

First: Hi Dutch!


Second: I think it should be fairly diverse. From what I've seen, counting the NPCs (not player or squadmates) I spotted at least six people with darker skin. And about five maybe six people with lighter skin tones. I gathered some screengrabs I took off of YouTube, of everyone I could find with the exception of Kallo Jath's blonde female co-pilot because I couldn't find her.



But if they start making test tube babies, I hope that make every ethnicity look the same. A totally new ethnicity that looks like Sectoids from XCOM, that way we Star-Bellied Sneetches can stop hating each other, and start worrying about the aliens that want us to surrender or burn!



EDIT: Also, Reyes is a Hispanic name and Jien sounds Asian.

Remember how Bioware killed off Emily Wong and turned Kai Leng into a total loser. And made Jacob into a cheesy cheater? Yea they don't have the best record with "racial diversity".

By the looks of it the human race has overcome race issues that far into the future. So it'll just be "humans" rather than any specific race.

Well, they certainly haven't transcended the barrier of primitive species tribalism, and Earth is still divided into nation-states, etc. So I don't share your optimism.

This Dutch is starting to grow on me.
