#tbh im coming at this more from the angle of narrative driven + no failure states (game story accounts for you loss#and keep continuing regardless of it)#less so the combat#much less so#also larger cast than the other games too

I understand what you’re saying against celebrating white skin in any shape and form, it’s just really given me something to reflect on - I am super pale to the point that people always Point it out (not necessarily in a positive way). I’ll sometimes talk or joke about my skin in a similar way to Gemma’s bio (granted, I wouldn’t put it in my bio) and I’m really unsure about it now.
Oh anon - all the love - having a body in this world is hard and people say fucked up things.
I'm really sorry if I was one of the people who said things that made things worse for you. I want to make a crucial distinction - I think as a culture there is no way to celebrate white skin that isn't playing into centuries of white supremacy. But I don't think that means that you have to give up the ways you've found to live in your skin, the jokes that you make, or the things that make the fact that other people are making nasty comments more manageable.
There are ways that it's very important to be careful, and it sounds like you are. It's even more important to be careful when speaking to a large unknown audience. You know much better than me your circumstances and what you're saying - you'll figure out the best way.
In the tags of that post I talked about the importance of taking a radical approach to changing the world. Radical means going to the root of. White supremacy is travels like sap through all our culture. There are lots of things that it is impossible to do without playing into centuries of white supremacy - that's one of the things that gives it its power.
That's why I think it's important that white people don't focus to much on making ourselves better leaves, but on digging up the roots. (This metaphor doesn't quite work because leaves cannot dig up roots no matter how much they want to, but I'm committed to it now - and sentient leaves couldn't dig up roots themselves, but if they all worked together they could contribute). Contributing our work, resources, time, and bodies to movements of black liberation and decolonisation is so much more important than being a good leaf.
#I think reflection is really important for white people#but an anxiety driven desire not to be bad#much less so#it can be very difficult to tell the difference in text#I hope this as a response#whatever was going on for you#Anonymous

“Maybe I could go to the beach for a break one day...” A slight curl to the corners of the Qilin’s lips as she pulls her hood up over her horned head. A few sharp breaths, and with crackling electricity along her form, she leaps from the rooftop with a small streak of electricity trailing behind. Right for the forests surrounding Mistral, she had a few hunts to take care of.
