Seiously, I agree. And I mean, generally, not just on the racist level.

I hate, when I am playing a game, and out of nowhere, there is an actor.

I can accept it if the actor and role SERIOUSLY FITS. But otherwise, it does break the immersion. In movies, you cannot avoid it. In games, you have to do in on purpose though.

@LukeAlmighty @Titanbreakerkun I mean, something like Barret from Final Fantasy VII being inspired by Mr. T is just a neat detail (Mr. T himself is pro-violence against journalists, which also helps).

However, imagine if Barret's whole personality and character arc had just been one big Mr. T reference, if he kept talking about all the fools he pitied, and if the remake had bent over backwards to have Mr. T voice him - it would just have been obnoxious and immersion-breaking.
@verita84 @LukeAlmighty @Titanbreakerkun I mean, Forspoken had an actually realistic black female protagonist (stupid, loud, unfunny, criminal etc), and look how well that turned out.

That's yet ANOTHER character I believe was designed after her voice actress btw.
Slightly off topic but, in the Star Wars sequels, Finn was true-to-life. A coward who abandons military duty, lies to get a job with the Resistance, and gets the hots for a non-black chick.
@CrustyB @ChristiJunior @LukeAlmighty @Titanbreakerkun @verita84 Palpatine did nothing wrong and (if you've read the extended universe) the Jedi were fucking terrible people who manipulated politics, influenced the intergalactic banking clan and kidnapped children (as young as 3) for blood rituals.

Palpatine had literally 20 years to fix the economy of warn torn galaxy, that had a drug cartel and slavery problems tousands of years old...

But he's the bad guy, because under his rule, travel was limited and taxes were quite high.
