This was just posted in a thread that got locked but I thought I'd
repost it here. Seems many people don't consider what's mentioned here

Because Hawke is from Lothering

Did you see any
Dwarfs in Lothering? Or any Elves that were not refugees from someplace
else who got robbed? It was a purely human town.

Also Hawke
becomes the Champion of Kirkwall. An infamous city that was originally
the site of the Tivinter slave markets, and the slaves were Elves. Why
would said city (now under strict Templar/Chantry overview) make a
non-human its Champion?

If you want to play elf/dwarf in the plot
Bioware has cooked up for DA2, you have to utterly rape the established
lore to do so. I would rather be confined to a human than suffer
massive retcons about how an exiled Dwarf became a champion of one of
the most historically xenophobic city states in Thedas



Okay, I didn't know that about Kirkwall. This being the case, why the hell would I want to play as a "Champion" of some place like that? I had trouble playing a human noble in Dragon Age due to what the humans had been doing to the other races. This city they want my character to become "champion" of epitomises the very thing I hate about the humans in this game? No thank you. Guess I will be skipping this one after all then. 


Close minded much?

I mean it's this exact sort of one sided thinking that is the reason the world if full of bigots and racists today. Not saying you are so don't flip over that. Talking about your generalization that all humans in DA treat other races poorly.


Okay........being disgusted with bigots and racists (an entire society of them) makes me racist............right............
I never said all humans in DA treat other races poorly. I said MOST of them do. If you don't beleive me, play a city elf. And my comments in that are because Zalocx said that Kirkwall is essentially a city of bigots. I stated and stand by that I would never want to be a champion of a bunch of bigots.


It's the fact that you refuse to play a human of all things and hate humans so much that makes you come off as racist. And you never said most, but you implied that all humans are bigots and racists. You aren't the champion of a bunch of bigots. You don't know what Kirkwall is like, unless there are details out already that I have yet to read. Besides, even if it starts out as a city of bigots, I'm pretty sure the way you play the game has a hand in how Kirkwall ends up.

Racist against humans? I AM a human. I just don't want to be one in this game. Why? because their society as portrayed to me IN THIS GAME is a cesspool of hate and self entitlement. Now if they let you be a human and still lead some sort of revolution for the elves or at least at the end demand they all are given equal rights, then playing a human might appeal to me.



And Zalocx is the one who said Kirkwall was "An infamous city that was originally

the site of the Tivinter slave markets, and the slaves were Elves."

And we've already got a thread discussing player race, which was linked on the first(?) page. Please take your discussion there. THank you.



End of line.
