    relasticly you can't get black Elves so its unlikely you'd get Black Half-Elves and the game is based in a Victorian era so the only black people would be slaves.

    Or myabe Trokia are racist pigs?

    Actually that is pretty strange most games now days feature multi cultured peoples?

    Why not have half-elf-half-orc people in the
    game also.Like my mother is half-elf and my father is half-orc.

    Actually, in Tolkien's world do you hear him mention 'brothas'? Does that make Tolkien racist too? Just making a point there Thrasher - Troika are trying to stay in the period...anyway, the game isn't even set on Earth, so there doesn't have to be black people.

    All the colored people got together and took all the toilets and children to a location just off the world map.

    Everyone knows there aren't any kids - I believe it was because of the possible moral and ethical issues involved that Troika didn't include kids - anyone else remember the child killer rep from the Fallout games?

    Well, that kind of wouldn't work - killing a kid in Stillwater is not going to get a shopkeeper in Ashbury refusing to sell you goods.

    Well there are!

    Just import your own picture =D. I´m a brotha myself and I also got a little shook up by the fact that there´s only white folks. No asians, indians, aliens or antiloops either. And I do not believe that the only blacks in the late 1880:s were slaves.

    No, the reason there are no kids is because you Europeans suck.

    Ah, what lovely bit of trans-Atlantic bridge-building ...

    To which particular aspect of our suckiness are you refering?

    Well, in this context, the part about not allowing games to be sold where children can be killed in grusome fashions. :smile:
