    This reminds me of the ultra edgy survival vaguely-zombie-themed game “Rust” which had white supremacist gangs and the like which took a massive beating when a new patch of the game made people’s skin colors and other attributes based on a procedurally generated seed that was unique to each Steam account.

        That game was so clownishly edgy that it had some rather direct parallels to the notorious tabletop game F.A.T.A.L.

          vagina elasticity coefficient and race theory

            The guy was That Guy who was all like “How come elves who can live thousands of years have the same level of experience as humans whose bodies are only able for about 50 years”, or “how come everyone is an adventurer”, or “how is it that there’s almost no racism in a world based on medieval Europe”, and then made an age-based level system, a job system where 95% of them are pointless, and a racism system where there’s only three races that are not “kill anyone else on sight” in the entire game, without any thought as to how this would work as a game.

      When I played GTA Online I made a character sort of loosely based on Omar Little from the wire, I got called the n-word so often on mic it was surreal (I’m white IRL).
