Not all asians are ninja theives. And not all barmaids have big boobs There was no representation, it was just characters.
    I never said that there wasn't Black people like that. Just that most of them aren't and it's a silly stereotype. Also, giving him dialogue like that is a slander to Black people as he was the only one who used it in the game. So it wasn't like they were just using it, because the slang was popular at the time. It was mainly that that I had a problem with everything was okay.
