Capcom racist?

[archibaldcrane]

Those weren't Spainard zombies. As they reiterate time and time and time again in the game, they are in "Europe" and the people are "Europeans". I don't know where people get Spain out of the whole thing...

Although the actual place is never mentioned, there are hints all over the place that suggests it takes place in a fictional Spain >_>

1. "Somewhere" in Europe.
2. Some fakeass Spanish accent by the local folk
3. The currency used, peseta, was Spain's currency before adopting the Euro.

Whooosh. Did I do that right?

Luis Whatever is specifically mentioned as being a Spaniard, either in the actual dialog or in the files you pick up, forget which.

Quite frankly, the pots calling the kettle black at this point on racism.

[Skyylya]

I woulda thought the fact that all of the zombies are speaking....spanish woulda given it away that it's set in spain.

Actually I thought it was central/south america originally cause I never recalled when I played the game that it was 'somewhere' in europe. Although, aren't many castles in south america or central america. Lot's of cool castles in spain though.

There be some sparkling wiggles up in this village.

No, you failed.

[Khamsin]

How do you say "Braaaaaaiiiiiiiinnssss" in Spanish?

[Elcura]

EL BRAINO!

If that's so, it'd be tough telling whether they were Spaniard zombies shouting for brains, or just some drunks shouting for beer.

Zombie doesn't care about black people

I was being clearly sarcastic, you don't have to point out that it's obviously set in Spain. The thing is that Capcom, instead of just fucking saying "Spain", used the uber-vague "Europe" instead, which is ridiculous. The whoosh stands, and encompasses many.

[Xavier]

I get the whoosh now.

But I didn't get it at first, so its only half-whooshed. Although, I suppose your whoosh resulted in a whoosh over the whoosh, so I'll give it to you there.

[arus2001]

In before, "Nigga stole my brainz!"?

[Ddz]

Christ, when will those people shut the fuck up about racism. It's ye motherfucking olde and no one cares anymore. Get a fucking hobby. Seriously.

I just felt like egging you on. I get the whoosh I just knew you would bite.

Heres the real question, is any white person offended when they are called a cracker or honkey? I was recently informed that I'm supposed to be offended as they are racial slurs, which was news to me.

But yeah thats racist and we should all go recreate the million man march and what not.

I usually laugh when someone calls me a cracker. They're litterally calling me food.


Food doesnt insult me.

Was I the only one who went "Oh shit, Chris Redfield is back!" after reading the article?

Yeah Yeah I know he was in Code Veronica but still.

Probably, need more Jill Valentine. She's the best.

Now, Spaniards are White. The Moors ran through there, but so did the Celts (which, interestingly enough, gives us Black Irish, but I digress)

Ok I know this is old news, but please don't bring my people into this. Black Irish get laughed at enough as is (wtf, Ireland has BLACK PEOPLE?!?!?! ) without being brought into a racism argument.

As I was saying, even though I can see your point, theres also a huge amount of media that has similar themes, but gets the pass. The new(er) Exorcist movie? Yeah, black people are not only poor and decrepit, but they're Satanists now. Constantine? Some Mexican guy tries to bring the Anti-Christ into this world. Hell, those are only the ones I can think of off-hand.

We see stuff about genocide, war and famine in Africa, both fictional and true (and no I don't mean the news is fake), and yet a video game isn't supposed to be inspired by this? Hell, this is only ONE TRAILER and people are getting bent out of shape already. What if this ends up being a world-wide epidemic, and the part in Africa is for the protagonist to get his hands on some miracle drug? We have no fucking clue what the storyline is like, and people are already complaining.

At least see the finished product first.
