Enjoy the Revolution! Another revolution around the sun that is.

I'm not going to pretend to know what decision I'd make if faced with the option of never having to care about money again
I'm not going to pretend either, I know that very well - I'd take the money and laugh all the way to the bank.

It's easy to be principled and righteous when you're broke, without any money temptations in sight.

Btw I would actually somewhat respect Vávra if he openly said "Yes, we decided to do this to send the message that Warhorse is not just alt-right Vávra and get better reviews." (yes, I am expecting that the videos/screenshots are not fake)

It would still be fucking stupid, but the thing that I hate the most about hyperprogressives is not what they do, but how they keep denying they're doing it. The whole "it's not happening, but it should be happening, and if it is happening, it's good and what are you complaining about?" shit. Or, recently and specifically: -We put conventionally unattractive people in our game to subvert expectations. -Well, I don't like that you obviously made your character models ugly to send a political message, that's stupid. -What!? They all look like normal people, there's nothing political about it, we didn't make them ugly, you perv!! Or in general calling "gamers" pervs and fetishists just because they themselves sexualize different things. Or trying to hide that they hired SweetBaby Inc.

When someone has radically different opinions than you do but is entirely open about it, at least you can somewhat respect him as an ideological enemy. But the common denial and hiding behind whatever made up or delusional reason instead of just saying "yes, I'm using xxxx to push my ideology/make more sales" is so fucking tiresome.

For the record, even 2015's CDPR introcuded 0 token diversity in Witcher 3.

And what's this has to do with 2025? Obviously the woke is progressing exponentially, so such comparisons are useless. Nowadays cdprojekt will include many negros and DEI themes wherever they can squeeze, just see, suddenly half of temeria will be of zanguevar descend.

They added at least two brown NPCs with hearts of stone IIRC, merchants from Offieri (sp) or something like that

But this is exactly what Warhorse should have done with KCD2 if the had to have eastern foreigners in the game. Mysterious subjects of the Sultan from the hyper-developed-yet-unforgiving still-Roman east. Since The Witcher is earlier medieval, they made them Saracens, which is perfect. It was like something from Ivanhoe, very well done.

When this is modded out, there are two approaches. One, a seamless exchange with a random white peasant model. Leave whatever retarded accent voice acting they have added.

Second, over the top troll-worthy reskin using Tyrone from 'sheeeeiit' meme as a model. AI re-voice into ebonics with matching dialogue changes that somehow fit in with Henry's responses.

The latter would be epic.

No, only magical negroes from Sub-Saharan Wakanda Africa are enough for americunt audiences.

Ah, yes, great Muslim scholar goes around wearing gold like a nigger in Detroit.

Hadiths forbid men from wearing gold, from wearing any bracelets, and from wearing rings on the middle finger.

Also, the symbols on his clothing are presumably meant to reference his African culture. Wearing heathen nature, animal, and spirit symbols is, unsurprisingly, forbidden.

I would really like to know the process behind creating this character, because the games are otherwise quite keen on historical accuracy (even though they are influenced by Czech nationalist propaganda).

You are seriously delusional if you think a single black NPC is going to ruin the 'good will', or if you think the game is 'compromised' by it.

Like seriously get some fucking perspective. Almost nobody gives a shit. Hell I'd say most Codexers probably don't give a shit and will play it and love it regardless. Yeah you'll all spam this thread with your racial slurs and your sad collection of Nazi poster memorabilia for a few weeks. Meanwhile you'll purchase the deluxe edition and play it non-stop with the curtains closed while whispering to yourself 'ba-baka D Vavra, it's not like I love your game or anything...'
"I'm playing KC2..."
"Isn't it woke?"
"Giga woke. But I'm using the Woke Remover mod."
"Of course. Me too."

I will be fine with negro if he gets reasonable backdrop like berber traders came to mali, sold their stuff, brough him as slave, then he was sold to genoan traders, came to north italy and was then sold to kuttenberg. But how he would be a scholar in this scenario? He would have to be most likely first sold by berbers to ottoman/abbasid caliphate where he was picked up as promising and trained to become medicus. But then, who would trade a medicus to europe? Must had been particular reason, like he raised hand on his master or something like that and evaded punishment/death. Just give me reasonable backstory to that negro and i will be fine, but if i feel the smell of jewish hands and their wokery aka. superficially insert magic token negro, then i will be pissed. This is not how you honor black history, you want to do it - do it properly and with explanation, instead of insulting viewer intelligence. Because extraordinary occurences[a black in kuttenberg] needs extraordinary explanation. You don't need explanation and backstory to every white peasant near kuttenberg because it's to be expected for them to be there...

"I'll be totally fine with a black character in KCD2, but he has to be a slave"

Lmao

He could had been freed, but yes, there is zero way he wasn't a slave at some point in his life. Because mali sold gold, ivory and SLAVES, and there is no other way he could had found himself in north africa, ie. crossing the desert if he wasn't a slave. It was berber traders COMING to Mali to sell stuff, and take slaves, NOT the other way around. And as i said, he could be freed by abassids or when he got into europe after years of service, as it was sometimes practiced, especially for high status slaves. If you know nothing about the subject please don't talk.

Reminder that most "woke removing" mods are outright banned on Nexus mods and other places.
Though there are other places, liked Based Mods, if I remember correctly?
