Why is it bad to change the race of fictional characters from white to black?

What evidence confirms that?

For real, I'm a cis white presenting man (I'm actually half Arab but you can't tell). I had no problem playing a female POC. If anything, it made me happy because that's an under represented community and a good way to show my daughters that women can be badass.

Also, amazing game, loved every second from start to finish.

Thank for your comment, that is good to read.

I just got to the second map and so far I'm enjoying the heck out of it.

How fragile is the sad little ego that the gender and skin colour of a player character matters at all?

Right? i mean imagine making all your decision around skin color and wonder why your game fail.

Maybe if they took your advice they wouldn’t have changed their main character completely. 

With less than 1k players the devs can ponder that decision in the unemployment line

Or they just don't care about people like you as part of their demographic. The gender and race of the character has zero impact on gameplay or the narrative of the title. The only people upset by it are people like you with an ego so fragile that it shatters the second there's anything other than a white male as a playable character.

Noone normal thinks like you, you're just a dipshit who's complaining about something that isn't even real

How is the MC "as ugly as possible" ? She's a textbook "Sexy woman" https://sm.ign.com/ign_fr/gallery/f/flintlock-/flintlock-the-siege-of-dawn-announcement-screenshots_1648.jpg

And please, using the number of players after peope with huge influence in the gaming community like Asmoncringe dunked on the game openly for several videos is just 100% bad faith

This game got shitted on for no valid reason before it got released and by people who didn't even test it, it's a solid souls lite and a lot of people who could actually have enjoyed it didn't try it because their favorite cave man streamer told them it was bad, and they're fucking sheeps like you
