Is destiny too politically correct?

This is a pretty simple post but one I found interesting nonetheless. From what I've seen from destiny one or two there is not a straight white male in the entire game. I'm bored so let's make it a game. The first person that can name one wins a prize, let's say an emblem code or 1000 silver. Rules: Awoken and EXO don't count, they must be human and it has to be a main or side character with dialog or shown in cutscenes and they must have a name, or be a vendor you can talk to in game. Side note: Devrim Kay doesn't count because he's confirmed in game to be gay. Again I could really care less that there isn't one but I just found it interesting.

  • This seems like something only a klansman, or a wannabe klansman, would care about...

    • Hell no, have you followed bungie devs at all? They are all politically correct commies.

        I can't believe im engaging in this racist, snowflake BS, (or blatant trolling?) but here goes... Executor Hideo... Sure he has a Japanese name, but he looks white and is voiced by Straight, white actor, James Remar. Hopefully that is enough straight whiteness to make the tower feel like a "safe space" for you again. Btw. ending with "i couldn't care". Doesn't get you out of the trap. You cared enough to start a thread called "is destiny too politically correct" because it doesn't feature "enough" white people. Seems you do care. P.s. some places have more black folks than white folks. Just happens to be the case sometimes. Also, fun fact, the tower is actually located in Tbilisi, Russia, but I don't hear you whining about the lack of Russian accents...interesting!

        • You do realize: 1. The City isn’t in America. 2. Guardians were chosen from the entire human race. 3. Straight white males are a minority, worldwide. Straight East Asian males are far more numerous, and The Drifter seems to fit that bill.

          • The real question is, why would Bungie feel the need to over represent minority groups in their game? Is it white liberal guilt? I don’t really pay attention to it, it’s a game, but it seems to be a popular trend in many types of media.

                    • Are you saying there needs to be a straight white male? (Also, perhaps shaxx)

                      • No. And... I don't care? I mean, I'm a straight white dude and I feel like I'm pretty well represented in games generally (and sometimes it gets to be a bit much... like, I'm not super thrilled by the way some folks in gaming communities think they're "representing" me by getting pissy at the inclusion of others; I can do without that kind of "representation"). I'm cool letting other folks get the chance to see characters like them be the big damn heroes, and I can be just as invested in their stories, too.

                        • I've heard a random tower Npc tall about his wife. My character is a white Male and I'm straight. Other than that, pre exo cayde maybe.

                          The Mindbender, Hiraks, is a male who has a pale white appearance and is confirmed to have a heterosexual relationship to a Hive Brood Queen and is a side character featured in cutscenes and is neither Awoken nor Exo I have met your criteria, where’s my money

                          • Yep. Especially since the retconpalooza that D2 has been began. Yet another reason I haven’t bothered booting the game up in some time.

                          • Something is certainly wrong here. I've been running around and dancing here and there on all the destinations for a number of years now. I have not had anyone try and ask me for a date or anything else. It has to be a fault of just not knowing how good looking I really am. Oh well.
