ITT: Canon racists in videogames
The Angels of Death or whatever they're called, the rival biker gang in GTA 4:The Lost and The Damned DLC. If you go to their website, there's a part that says they don't discriminate, but they have very high standards and so far only white men have met the standards. When you're fighting them, sometimes your character will yell "RACIST PRICKS!" at them.
and this is why i sent the bitch to die
that's why i let the aliens have her
>>342712237
>killing someone for being a racist
Ameriturd spotted
I'm fucking her.
AGAIN.
Damn racists
>>342711964
>"It's not racism, not really"
>Not really
She even admits it
>>342711964
wasn't it just a line that was misinterpreted? I should play ME again, it's only about 2 quid in the sale
>>342712326
You have an entire team full of aliens and she could've refused to help them when they were in danger
I didn't want the possibility of that happening to exist
>>342712326
i didnt kill her i sent her into a battle she couldnt win
Wakka.
>>342711964
Im pretty sure like half the humans in dragon age origins had a fairly shaky opinion of elves
But fuck elves
>>342712416
No she is definitely pro-human, anti-alien because she had bad experiences in the past. She thinks of all your alien crew members as "one of the good ones".
>>342711964
Average Nord and Altmer in skyrim
the witcher has racists. and vampire bloodlines
>I don't like Jews. Or colored folk. Or natives, now that you mention it... I bet you like Catholics. Can't stand them neither. Nor women, Fabians, Socialists, homosexuals, Asians, or British.
Herbert Moon was too good for this world
>>342712445
>wanted gay romance plot line
just admit it
>>342712672
good, aliens saw human's as second class citizens anyway
>>342711964
Literally who? Dont think I had this bitch in my party aside from the intro mission, real men play Garrus/Wrex
>>342712407
>>342712407
I fucking laughed at this and then saved the fucking picture.

Was he a racist against elves?
The anti semite in LA noire. I think hes an italian american and kills the Jewish guy. Its early in the game as a beat cop
Nosferatu did nothing wrong.
>>342713204
Some of your partners drop a few pretty funny 40's-style casual racist remarks as well.
>>342713204
Actually, the Jewish guy killed the anti Semite guy
>>342712620
>Butt fuck elves
IM ON IT!!!!!
>>342713350
I think the fat detective partner also has a very low opinion of women, I remember him talking about beating women to make them behave better and stuff while you're driving around.
>>342713371
Israel has the right to defend itself.
>>342713457
But he was polite to the old lady and punched the necrophile guy
>>342713457
Yeah, I recall something like that too. LA Noire was a pretty good game, too bad there'll probably never be a sequel.
>>342712672
No, she's not ANTI alien.
>>342712409
Its not racism because she does not riff about other races, but species.
>>342712237
Same. Not because of "racism is bad" on principle but more because all the crew members in ME1 got progressively more likable the less human they were
She died because she was wrong
>>342713191
No.
>>342712237
I killed her because she's an annoying cunt that talks over her commander.
>>342712620
It's funny because humans are rapists and the elven people like it.
>>342713612
Was he really racist? Because I saw him more as an extreme idealist.
>>342712237
>killing Ashley
Racist companions are the best companions.

>>342714042
Not against intergalactic threats where you are stuck relying on other species tech.
>>342711964
tali is pretty racist against the geth
>>342712672
This is why I hate her in ME2. She should totally be on Cerberus' side, but instead, she suddenly hates you for joining up with them after they save your life and give you a giant ship?
>>342714619
>Letting her live to see ME2
>>342714245
Especially on that occasion. They're like a token to keep around and have a giggle occasionally. When they go out of their league you slap them.
>>342714619
Except Cerberus isn't a pro-human group; it's a terrorist group that performs experiments on and kills hoomans. That's their entire quest in ME1.
>>342711964
She is not racist.
At least not in the general meaning of the word.
>>342714730
the other option is having a gay robotic male model in your ship who is one of the most boring characters ive seen in gaming
>>342711964
She was racist as one would be racist against rats
>Seen any elves?
>>342714730
> being a cuck
>>342714870
Killing Carth 2.0 was the highlight of ME1.
>>342712326
More like Yuropoors. They literally raid houses to arrest people for saying mean things about brown people on Facebook.
>>342714958
If I could have killed her and the other guy, I would have killed them both. She's a stupid bitch and I don't need another soldier anyway.
>>342714870
And the first option is having Ashley on your ship
>>342715090
annoying slut>boring faggot
>>342715152
Both are pretty bad options. I wish you could've killed them all in ME1.
>>342712237
I killed her because she was right.
The mission was to arm and detonate the bomb at all costs, why would I risk my crew and potentially the bomb rescuing a soldier who knew full well what was going to happen? And then straight-up told me that she would hold the fucking line as long as possible.
>>342714949
>>342714619
Well that's understandable. I couldn't finish ME2 because I was too annoyed about being forced to join a group that my character hated five minutes ago.
>>342715574
Is that Breivik?
>>342716127
No that's skyrim.
>>342711964
not a racist
>>342712409
It's speciesism to be fair
>>342716907
aliens that look like humans and can breed offspring that can procreate are "races" of human in practise
look up what species means
>>342712237
I would rather have a racist around than Kaiden.
Kaiden is the epitome of boring. He has zero personality.
>>342714507
>racist against robots
>>342717137
Kaiden is literally everything people hated about Carth turned into a single character
>>342713263
Jinyou are literally "KILL WHITEY" tier.
It's great, all the porn gets a little bit more sexy when it's with Ashley and an alien cuz you know this isn't what she wanted deep down.
>Hey are you sure it's a good idea to let aliens who have attacked us in the past on Humanity's most advanced military spacecraft go around completely unsupervised?
RACIST FUCKING BITCH! WHERE'S YOUR FUCKING HOOD ASHLEY, YOU'RE LATE FOR THE KLAN MEETING!
>D-don't make fun of me Shepard, but I still believe in God.

I'm not a racist, if I don't want horses to be able to vote.

Was there anything redeeming about Carth? When I play RPGs, I never turn down a "good guy" quest, but after putting up with Carth's shit for 3 planets, and we get to his bitch of a kid, I was 100% fucking done with him. I was not going to do some stupid quest about "proving the sith to be evil" to this whiny retard.
le epic racism

XD
do i fit in guys?
>>342711964
Her point was that humans need to look out for their own interest because they can't expect the alien races to. You would have to be really naive to think she was wrong. People screaming "OMG racist XD" need to grow up.

That's not even the right guy. Sure the skins are the same, limited assets and all that, but they got the location wrong. That's the janitor in the apartment that you start in.
>not liking aliens
>racism
Aliens aren't a race, they're a completely different species. It's like calling someone a racist because they don't like rats or roaches.
>There’s something that’s always bothered me. Among fans, Gunnery Chief Ashley Williams is often referred to as the “space racist” of the team[1]. Supposedly, she hates aliens. This reputation comes mostly from a few situations that everyone misunderstands.
>The first comment is when, in a moment of wonder at visiting the Citadel for the first time, Ashley says, “I can’t tell the animals from the aliens!” I can understand that if she said this about humans: “I can’t tell Polish people from animals” then it would come off as incredibly prejudiced. But aliens are not humans, and the problem she’s dealing with is that she has no frame of reference. Presented with the lifeforms of the Citadel, you don’t know if one is sapient or not until you try to talk to it[2].
>This comment would probably come off as rude or crass to a non-human, but note that she wasn’t saying aliens were equal to animals. She’s owning up to her own ignorance and fallibility, not passing judgement on others.
>>342720627
>Putting words in my mouth
You had a bad day, or something?
>>342720767
>The other comment from her happens while protesting that so many aliens have free run of the ship. Early in the game, Ash has this exchange with Shepard:
Ashley: With all due respect, should they have full access to the ship?
Shepard: They may not serve the alliance, Chief, but they're allies. At least as far as Saren goes.
Ash: This is the most advanced ship in the alliance navy. I don't think we should give them free reign to poke around the vital systems.
Shepard: You don't trust the alliance's allies?
Ash: I'm not sure I'd call the council races allies. We - humanity I mean - have to learn to rely on ourselves.
>Note how she’s referring the the council races here. She could have lumped all aliens in together, but she’s making a clear distinction between the powerful council races (Asari, Salarian, Turian) and the others. And this is understandable. Those three races are powerful, technologically advanced, and have not been kind to humanity in the past.
>This is a simply practical political expediency. People do it all the time, and it’s not racism. She’s presumably okay with the Hanar, Elcor, and Volus, or she would have just lumped them all together. She’s not prejudiced against other races, she’s prejudiced against beings that have power over us. If anything, I’d say it shows Williams to be a fairly average person.
>>342711964
>Canon Transsexual Racist
>>342720412
>We needed ME3 to work that out
Kek. The entire point of the pilgrimage is to bring back something worthwhile to the fleet and Tali spent all day in engineering.
>>342720848
>>The problem here is coding. When an author wants to do some quick shorthand for “this character is a racist”, they often reveal it with comments like this. It’s kind of like parents yelling at their kids. In real life, it’s an ordinary thing that happens all the time. In a movie, a parent yelling at their kid is universal screenwriter shorthand for “this person is a horrible parent”. We’re used to picking up on these cues and extrapolating. If a parent yells at their kid in the first five minutes of a movie, we assume we’re being shown the world in its default state. “This parent is ALWAYS yelling at their kids.” I think some people get caught on Ashley’s dialog the same way. “Oh, she’s ALWAYS ranting about aliens.”
>But I don’t think that’s how this is intended. I think the writer is just trying to show some tension and unease is a natural part of our culture. We had a war, we don’t get a lot of respect from the council races, and Ashley just lost her entire unit in a Geth attack led by a Turian[3]. This isn’t racism, it’s realism.
Shepard: Standing up for ourselves doesn't mean standing alone.
Ash: I don't think we should turn down allies. I just think we shouldn't bet everything on them staying allies. As noble as the council members seem now, if their backs are against the wall, they'll abandon us.
>Note that she’s in favor of being allies with aliens. Again, not a very hateful or xenophobic trait. She just thinks that aliens won’t always reciprocate. We should note that the story itself supports her view.
You got a pessimistic view of the universe, Williams.
Ash: A pessimist is what an optimist calls a realist. Look, if you're fighting a bear, and the only way to survive is to sic your dog on it and run, you'll do it. As much as you love your dog, it isn't human.

>trying to downplay the one thing that elevates her above the ranks of generic human starter companions we've gotten in every bioware game since KOTOR
I'll take spacist over another fucking bastilla/carth
>>342720963
>
This is the line that gets her branded a space-racist. People think she’s saying the other species are like domesticated animals and that we should ditch them if trouble comes. But no, what she’s saying is that this is how they view us. She’s saying, “If something bad happened, the council races would look out for themselves first and foremost, and treat us like their dog.” And note that she’s not even mad at them. She’s just saying we need to be able to stand up for ourselves in case they do abandon us. And keep in mind they have already done so: The council scoffed at the idea of protecting Eden Prime after the Geth attack. That was fine, inasmuch as the humans put themselves in danger when they pushed so far out into the Attican Traverse, but the point is that the council did what was politically expedient instead of what what best for humanity, thus proving Ashley right.
>Given that Williams has family members that were killed or disgraced in the war we fought with the Turians (a war they started) I’d say her worldview strikes me as being incredibly open-minded given those circumstances. Very few people can get through a war and remain this calm and practical regarding their views of the other side.
>She doesn’t hate them, or wish them harm, or want to spy on them. She doesn’t want to take things from them. She isn’t even advocating overthrowing their power. She’s accepting of the idea that we’re ruled by non-humans, but doesn’t want us to become dependant on them. I can understand if you disagree with her worldview, but people act like she’s the KKK in space. Ashley Williams is not some hateful, xenophobic racist. She’s mildly and understandably distrustful.
>>342720797
Yes.
>>342721053
What happened?
>>342721036
>I actually think her attitude grounds the setting and gives it a lot of authenticity. Movies like to sort everyone into “normal people” and “the KKK”, but it’s never that simple in real life. She reflects the attitudes of normal, honest people in the real world, who aren’t evil or dangerous, and who are guilty of nothing more monstrous than simple misunderstanding.

Ashley eventually accepts her racism in the end and changes her views on the aliens. iirc, she had been talking about how her parents had raised her to fear the aliens since they had attacked us, but they weren't her views; they were her parents views
Unlike ME2 and ME3, ME1 actually had character development.
