Middle Eastern and South Asian mercs


(KayDubz) #1

The game has been very diverse so far, and Im greatful for that. Its good to see developers do that…and for someone who’s a minority in the USA, its nice to see that.

That said, I notice that there are not any Middle Eastern or South Asian characters in the game. For a developer thats based in the UK, I found it odd that one of their biggest minority groups isnt represented in the game. Yet you guys included a Black American in Aura, a Carribean man in Fletcher, and two East Asians in Kira and Arty.

Seems odd.

Itd be cool to see a Indian guy or maybe a North African guy in the game.

Fletcher is Nigerian (African).

Ok, so I got that wrong. Thanks for the information.

However, there remains the fact that South Asians and Middle Easterners arent represented in the game. It’d be nice to see that representation as well.

TRUE AS WELL.

We need Latinos too. I didn’t realize they were missing. It’d be cool to see a Hispanic player in the game, and maybe when he dies unexpectedly he can shout “no mames!” xD lol

Eastern Europe is not the Middle East or South Asia, which are the region I was focusing on.

Actually Phoenix had lines in Spanish, but my ear is not up to determining if he was meant to be Spanish or Latino…
