minus-squareJohanno@feddit.orglinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·9 hours agoTrue that. I even found it very funny when they accused kingdom come: deliverance of being racist because no black characters were in the game. The setting is fucking medieval! There were no black people in Europe back then. On the other hand I only know some Netflix series where they add all characters of the lbqt+ spectrum but give them no story or any meanings to that.
