Do Racist People Play FO3?

I was thinking a few minutes ago.. Do racist people play Fallout 3? I mean, technically, the main character is half-black. Considering that the character's mother is african american. Also, I'm not lying, go look it up.

It doesn't really matter to me, it's a great game. Anyone who would say no to the game because you're half black in it is a biggot.

Neko Majin Z is a non-canonical self-parody. It isn't even related to this issue at all.

A more appropriate analogy would be if you looked at an original panel in a Dragonball Z comic. You discover just outside the finalized frame that Goku's legs aren't fully drawn. While it's technically true that Goku doesn't have legs right outside the panel, you weren't meant to see it so it doesn't really count as being canon.

You better be talking to Antx, not me. What you were saying is my point exactly.

Holy shit, is this what it's all about? being canon or not? Stop right there for fucks sake.

If it was done by the author, created by the author and is possibly readily available to the public, it's as cannon as anything else. EVEN if you have to alter it in a way to find it.

Akira Toriyama did Neko Majin Z, a short series of one-shot manga, a self-parody of Dragon Ball. In it they introduce Freeza's son, Kuriza. So as far as I am concerned, Freeza has a son named Kuriza.

You guys really need to get over your fucking nerd rage.

Even so, I view the player in FO3 as half African American. I believe there may be a few references to her race in the game in some areas that aren't usually explored. I'd have to look into it.

That view is the same view which caused a big shitstorm over hot coffee. If it isn't supposed to be a part of the game then it isn't canon. End of story.

Really? I'm beating my fists against the keyboard. Right... Anyone ever tell you that you're delusional?

However, it doesn't matter what you say because I already understand what you're trying to say, I just see it from a different view.

I am rather curious why they even bothered with her character model. Seems like an awful lot of extra work for no reason.

I don't know, if they cut all images of her out of the game, and the parent's design are supposed to change depending on how you look, then who can really say if she was black?

Original ideas may have suggested she was black. But if you can't currently see here, perhaps there was a reason why the developers cut her out of the game. Perhaps she is no longer supposed to be anything except an idea.

Even so, she's still black. Even in some holotape recordings, she was black. There's even a picture of her and James that was cut out of the game, and it showed her being black. Whether or not you're not supposed to see her, you're still half black in the game.

Antx, I know your type and I know if you see this, you'll argue up and down. Try not to make yourself look like an idiot, ok?

Which doesn't actually mean anything since you're not supposed to see her. It's why they cut the picture of her out of the game.

You're never actually supposed to see her and your parents change depending on how your character looks.
