discussion of representation in video games often results in asian characters being ignored because they are light skinned

see also that thread referring to 'ambiguously dark skinned characters' as 'a problem' because they have dark skin and arent black, instead of, you know, being a depiction of dark skinned asian people.

I'm sure there's individuals talking poo poo, but there's not much space for it in "journalism" and apparently the one gaming outlet that noted his issues back during the Olympics got dumped on hard.

i'm asking because i'm afraid that with sugiyama's death, people outside of japan are going to quickly judge those in japan who are writing remembrance words about his music as bigots and racists for not mentioning the awful poo poo he supported.

i wanna make clear again that i think sugiyama was a piece of poo poo who i don't mourn at all, but i also don't want to judge those in japan who were influenced by his music, or the nostalgia people over there have for his music in dragon quest. i feel like a lot of people in the west will start calling the japanese cowards, creating a big cultural divide between the japanese and western gaming communities

Seating at the thought that some idiot may say the Japanese are racist when the news articles don’t mention all the poo poo some guy posted, even though it is literally the case wherever you go that the media tends to not criticise the immediately dead

i understand and sympathize with that but we aren't a very healthy sounding board for it because it just immortalizes your stupid worries in sa posts while also making us have to either engage with them or ignore them. i would suggest a thought exercise such as 'im worried about this -> why? -> because... -> why would that happen? -> because... -> if that does happen, how would that affect you or anything you care about? -> because... -> what lasting impact would that have?' etc. or talking to an actual friend about it

I can assure you that anyone who hates the entire Japanese population because of Imperial Japan's war crimes already did so with or without this composer getting praise from the general Japanese public.
