How fucking gay can you be? Do whatever the fuck you want with your story, most fictional MCs are supposed to be self-inserts.

I feel ya man. Its either someone say self insert, trying to get the "urban" demographic, or they scream sjw bullshit . Shit sucks

How about you list all the white characters you can play as that aren't just generic action heroes?
>>
>>320573182
are you kidding?

i can name literally dozens. snake, link, gordon feeman, leon kennedy, chris redsfield, dante, nathan drake, guybrush threepwood, any fucking character from a good western rpg of the past 30 years, etc.

I wanted the MC to be an everyman, and I realized there was no way I could do it without him winding up as a self insert. So instead I covered it up by making additional main characters The Mexican actually turned out to be my favorite in the end anyway.

He is every angry black man trope condensed into a single character. Even the bland as hell Mercer was leagues better.

The only winning move is to ignore everybody and do what you like. That's a big reason I actually enjoy Undertale, because Toby made the game he wanted and said screw everyone else. Gotta respect that.
