@KNN: Regarding western RPGs like Fallout, ME, DA....you must be willingly ignoring the fact that many western RPGs also lack ugly people of any race. Oh I know. I was just saying they were the lesser of two evils. Preston in Fallout 4 is kinda token in a way too. On the surface he seems like a guy trying to help people and make a difference. But he has no depth to him and he pretty much comes off like how Lois Lane thought of Clark Kent at the start of Superman. A goodie goodie boyscout who is almost a parody of an adult hero. So I know western RPG are perfect. I'm just saying they're some effort there at least.

As for ugly people, uh, the majority of all western RPG NPCs and lead look ugly to me. I guess that just comes down to laziness on the dev's part when they keep making the same figure over and over. That or they see that as so hot they even want old women to have hourglass figures. Shrugs. Again. I know they're not perfect.

I keep playing JRPGs and WRPGs for the same reason. I have fun, the stories are entertaining and I keep hoping things will get better.

@Zeoblo: In my eyes just as Flynt is black, Ren and Yatsuhashi are asian. Even if they're not on Earth their features seems to have come from that race. I'm sure if Earthlings colonized Remnant or if Remnant is future Earth after a huge era of ruin, that would explain it. Then again, we're probably suppose to suspend belief. Just like with Soliel. If you let them tell it she's not Indian (as in from India in race).

Like Someone said, I said 2016-17 because it WAY PAST due for people to stop thinking so backward. I know people will never be 100% equal, but we could at least as a people make an effort to shoot for 90%.
