Is Big City Racist?
 

Native Americans did not trade in pelts except to Europeans. Pelts are what they had, and traded with. Not what they traded for.

That is not in a any way racism.

what

Perhaps it is historically inaccurate, but Classic does exist in an alternate universe and does not attempt to represent any real nations or groups of people.

Okay, so lets make a fried chicken restaurant and some plantations run by black NPCs while their white NPC counterparts call them lazy. It exists in another universe so it doesn't count.

what

I put a lot of research into Big City to make it as respectful as possible. Big City was loosely based off of the Klamath Tribes, though some things had to be adapted to better fit the gameplay.

The story of the Big City volcano was also loosely based off of the mythology of the Klamath tribe: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Llao

However, the pelts had little to do with trading and more to do with wanting to incooperate shape-shifting, or Skin-walkers: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skin-walker

Though it's worth mentioning Big City had to be completed in just a month, and I didn't have time to do college-level research. I tried my best to be respectful of the culture and history of Native American's, contrary to what was expected for the content(stereotypical Western's Indian's and such).

Nice info Dusty.

Hey, we Canadians traded pelts to the French during the fur trade!

The only thing a native was ever to a colonist is a feathers, animal skin clothes ,brown skin, and a sense of being connected to nature. I appreciate you want to be respectful but all those people were murdered raped and put into prisons where there children were brainwashed into jesus. Representing them in graal online has always irked me, especially when graal wants to represent the more spiritual side of a culture that is has and is currently being raped

ffs people it's a game. It was never Dusty's intention to trigger you guys.

For sure

This has happen to every race and bringing Jesus into the conversation is irrelevant.Attachment 17206

We should make it realistic by slaughtering them for having inferior cultures.

Or not because that would actually be racist.

LOL

ol west is racist af
Not big city though

Yo.

deadowl, either u are joking around or on drugs. This game is meant for fun not racism..

Are you serious?

Guys, he's right. This is racist.

Oh, btw, there is an Indian feather hat. That's extremely racist because...um...well, reasons. Also, there's a chicken hat. Extremely racist to the Fakename-tribe, because they use chicken as their main source of food. Wow. So racist. Gg Classic.

gg classic

I didn't say it was racist. I just posed the question. Dusty has given the best response in this thread so far.
