Does anyone else think that zelda may be a bit racist.
I see this because ganon is Black or (african gerudo), but he is obviously not white, but he is the only actual human in the game that dies. Who also thinks Nintendo should have paid more attention to that.
This is misguided on several levels. First, if there are allegations of racism because of Ganondorf, the culture he emulates is clearly not African but Middle-Eastern (which may have something to do with Africa, but little to do with "black people"). Secondly, several people who are "white" die in Zelda games. Thirdly, what does it matter if he dies--if you want to allege racism, it may be better to pick on the fact that he is evil than whether he dies or not.
Fourth, it's all kind of irrelevant because Zelda games aren't "racist." People have a tendency to cry "racism" when they see people of certain races portrayed a certain way in stories, but really, there are a lot of factors that go into something like that. One is cultural context in the story itself. The "races" of Hyrule are different than the races of our world. Another is cultural context of the people who produced the media. You don't see many black characters come from Japan because, presumably, there aren't many black people over there. I mean, why the hell does about 90% of the population in Pokemon games look distinctly Japanese, even when the most recent generation takes place in (supposedly) America? There's no ill intent, it's just that people work with what they know.
The middle-eastern-style aesthetic is pretty cool, and it fits the Gerudo pretty well. Ganondorf first shows up in the context of the Gerudo, but, oddly enough, doesn't look remotely Middle-Eastern like his people; he has green skin and pretty standard Caucasian features. You could argue that villainy stems from a middle-eastern style culture in Zelda games (and you'd be right), but Ganondorf himself kind of stands alone as a villain. He just is what he is. He could honestly be portrayed as a black character and I wouldn't care, but in this case, he's not "black" at all. Actually, to say he's black appears to be a bit racially insensitive.
FYI: Im white not racist have Black family there Hilarious just wondering on other opinions.
I don't understand what you're saying at all here. Can you please clarify?
