. They make great content.
And on a similar note,
@Shoyoumomo_
has an amazing BLM mod for Dragon Ball FighterZ.
I had fun dealing with the mountain of "death threats" and racist comments towards me after I dropped the BLM mod pack for Dragon Ball FighterZ

What this man did for Black kids growing up cannot be understated. But either way you slice it, he was a legend.
Rest in peace, GOAT. You were taken from us too soon.
‘DRAGON BALL’ creator Akira Toriyama has sadly passed away at the age of 68.

Outside of the Killmonger hair, we were THIS close to Luke being Black. The bottom-right design goes hard.
ルークのみ撮影可能な開発展示エリア。
キンバリーは撮影できなかったけど、開発途中の様々なデザインを見ることができました。
そして衝撃的な事実が判明！
なんとキンバリーはスト6のヒロイン枠だそうです！

That moment when NASB gets a Black character before Smash.
Still happy to see Gerald in the game, he was my favorite from Hey Arnold back in the day.
The coolest kid on the block, Gerald from Hey Arnold!, makes his debut in Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl 2!

In a setting with magic, Chocobo, & the ability to summon beasts, apparently people of color is a step too far.
Yeah, Yoshida & the rest of his team can fuck off with that bullshit. Final Fantasy XVI is a hard-pass for me.

This is what happens when your fighting game doesn't have any Black people (that aren't just alternate colors).

So the group of Black ninjas work under a white guy. Not sure how I feel about this.
Oh, so Victor is "THE" Raven
Like, Master, Master Raven.

Leave it to white women to steal from our Black queens.

Facts, they aren’t being subtle in the slightest.
Mk fans saying they don’t like Tanya’s new face
SF6 fans saying Kimberly’s face is weird
KOF Fans saying that Delores was weird looking

Ironic considering that your last few games either killed off every named Black character (TLoU Parts 1 & 2) or had them be voiced by a white person (Uncharted 4).
It’s good to see you all commemorate Juneteenth, but you also need to do right by Black people in your games.
We at Naughty Dog are commemorating Juneteenth with a day of rest across the company.
On this important day in American and Black history, we're reflecting on how we can do more to support, celebrate, and uplift Black communities and voices - today, tomorrow, and always.
