So... After 4 ME games I still can't romance an African-American woman?

Sorry for jumping at you. We only know that Isabella's mother is Rivaini, but her father is unknown. She just doesn't look like a black person to me, but the lore says that Isabela is dark tan, which people in Rivain range from dark tan to ebony. I haven't heard the devs refer to her as black, but if they did, then they must not have seen any black people. I would at least say that she's half-black. 

But on topic, we haven't had any female romance that looks like Vivienne, Jacob, or Liam. 

Please don't try to educate a black person on people. I never said black people aren't black, so don't put words in my mouth. You may want to go look at the Dragon Age 2 Destiny trailer and just look at her in game, because she looks more Latina then anything. 

You do realize the exact same thing is true for white people? Unless you think they are literally the colour of snow. Yet you seem perfectly fine talking about "white" people.

It's okay. Thank you for apologizing. 
I can see where she may be half-black, her mother being black and her father something else(maybe of Antivan descent hence the Latina qualities Isabela has as well). 

I know, it's kind of cliche, but it's a beautiful cliche - I would love to see some Zoe Washburne like character in the future games.

This video is for black men who are dedicated to black women.

I can't speak on the Mass Effect writers since I didn't play Andromeda. However, given how SJW the Dragon Age writers have become of late, I think their issues with creating a romanceable black female have less to do with any biases against, but rather fear of appearing to. Creating believable, three dimensional characters requires various flaws to round them out, and some of them could be afraid of the inevitable backlash, no matter what direction they take. For example:

-Make this new female Companion clearly Afrocentric? They are fetishizing and guilty of cultural appropriation.

- Make a Rivanni, Antivan or Tevinter woman who just happens to be black? She's black in name only and idealizing assimilation.

-Get a black writer to writer her? Tokenism, and letting the white writers off from having to do any research.

-Make her wild and fun loving? Ditzy slut.

- Make her reserved, intelligent and moral? Frigid bitch.

- Make her naturally competitive, since our Companions do so much fighting anyway? Psycho bitch.

- Make her completely well adjusted? Mary Sue, writer's pet, virtue signaling, and worst or all, BORING.

Well what about Vivienne some say, as she was plenty flawed? Well, I never said this theory was absolute, as there exceptions to every rule. However, there was a different DA writing environment then, with different ideas on "proper" RPG heroes. Most importantly, when Viv's personality and story arc were done, early concept art showed that she was initially going to be white, and changed later. If Vivenne had been a Love Interest, I can't see it in her character to do so unless it is mandatory that everyone (and I do mean everyone) know that she wears the pants in the relationship. I wonder how many players would taken her up on that ...

So in proving how progressive they are, the current DA writers have actually stifled their own progress. I could be wrong. I hope I'm wrong. Time will tell...
