The game is racist

lolwtfbbq · 2015-08-29 15:43:19

There are no black smileys! The only one i found was a black smiley with glasses, so there is 3% of black smileys in ee?
Please make more black smileys or change the color of the olds

I want that because today I was making a remake of L4D2, and I needed for some AFRICAN smileys, so I found this new problem.

There aren't any white smileys, are there? Or asian smileys for that matter, or any smileys of any race. If you want a black smiley, use the ninja.

I don't think colored in circles could be racist.

It's bad enough that the game has to balance masculine/feminine smileys. How would you go about making African descent smileys? Every time you choose between the two for making a smiley skin, it puts a cultural strain on the aspect of making smileys. Which ones should be which? No matter what you can find a way for it to be racist.

The best way to avoid something as silly as this is to ignore race altogether, and that's what the game has done.

There aren't any black people, no white people, no asians, no race at all. Also not all black people are african american, what the hell kind of substitute is that.

Hm... Something like the Tanned smiley color ton? Yeah, 2 tabs with black and white same smileys on the game... I imagine some players with black smileys and white smileys... Love this idea

Zoey2070 · 2015-08-29 21:35:48

tbh it does kind of bug me that the smileys are inherently masculine (as proven by the fact that we have specifically feminine smileys... thanks obama)... and they're also inherently white. "oh, zoey, you're being all SJW again blah blah blah no one cares" but consider this:

old headhunter smiley sorry, you're not going to convince me that's all face paint.
bruce is based on a white guy and is the same color as all the rest
the simpsons. everyone's yellow... unless they're black. ergo, yellow = white.

so it may not have been intentional, but it's still there.

Any effort to make the game less racist or sexist or whatever will have the opposite effect.

The original smileys were based off the default facebook smileys, based on basic emotions. As more smileys were added, smileys for jobs were added.

Take the female smilies for example: They were added because there were not enough "female" smileys. Adding them made it purposely obvious that those smileys were supposed to be for girls and the rest are for boys, which in turn annoys people like this joker ^^

The same will be done if you try to add "racially accepting smileys" by adding a black guy or an asian guy or whatever.

I don't know what was going on with bruce tho, MrShoe just needed another smiley for his weekly updates.
