>mfw there will never be a rpg sci-fi game with humans as antagonists, and an alien species fighting for their independence and survival from impending dooms
Why don't this ever be done?

Because plebs can't relate to sentient fish men and so on.

>implying there aren't games that have non human characters as MCs
I believe it can be done. Just got to be creative
>>323113464
That's only because those non-human MC's are racist caricatures or generic as fuck.

>generic
But that's an issue of poor writing, not having a non human as an MC
The racist thing is probably hard to avoid

Because for some reason we want to think of ourselves as the underdogs. Realistically any species, including us, would probably be scared of one another and cause conflict anyway.

I mean, you're an antagonist to the alien empire on Earth, but in the long run, I doubt the aliens will be/are painted as good guys or weak.

Alien Hominid, right?
