That's racist. Sorry, but it is.

What are you thinking????

wha.....

i dont think so ...anyway you couldn't name country's for valenwood or morrowind , in fact you are not saying country's , mearly a mix of environments - i could say my house is like hammerfell because it is hot

and by the way , which country's have dragons , magic , an empire and mushroom trees again - not mentioning the various spiritual deities

1. There are White guys who sound black and vice versa. So what?

2. If it starts with "I'm not trying to be racist" then it probably is racist. Does it matter who voices who?

If every race lived up to a skin colour stereotype, that would be way more unrealistic than what we have now.

Meh, it's only the voice actor, you can't honestly expect Bethesda to hire more than like, 20 of them.

We don't have blacks in England.

black people in england mainly live in built- up areas , in the south-west ( where i live) i think i have seen only a handful of non--whites

( and yes i lived in essix before)

( and no i dont like the only way is essix)

Babes you don't get anymore south west than me, I'm in P-Town. I can see this turning into a huge flame war/racial debate.... Also, never watched that program.

"babes" .... im a
guy !!

Not by the time i'm finished with you. Anywho, back on topic......

Never on here on the weekends anyways. Too many trolls on here, people forget humour ( or just don't get mine).

you can't have ever been to east london then matey boy.

This thread again. As a real life redguard I feel the need to chime in yet again. Redguard are my favourite race, along with altmer, and one reason I always identifiedwith them as a kid was because they were....well like me. Heck, one of the hairstyles in Morrowind looks exactly like a low-res version of my awesome afro-jew-fro (I'm biracial). Yes their culture was inspired by arab and (to a lesser extent) feudal japanese culture as well, but at their essence they were always intended to be africanesque. Look at their concept art and you'll see clear references to african culture, motifs, dress, weapons, and even references to famous african civilizations like the Zulu. Michael Kirkbride, the man who wrote a great deal of redguard lore, did this on purpose as he knew it was rare for africans to have a place in fantasy stories. The way they were portrayed was so cool because they weren't offensive but they weren't overly politically correct either. It felt natural. He even gladly admits that Cyrus the Restless is his favourite character along with his other brainchild Vivec. Ever since the video game "Redguard" when elder scrolls lore was coming into its own and the characters were first given full voices, the redguards had a clearly african american voice-actor. I didn't find it offensive or unrealistic. I loved it. And to those who dont know: yes black people tend to have different voices. It's not a cultural thing or a stereotype. Our vocal cords just tend to be different. When I heard them in Skyrim.....I was pissed. They dont even have their own voice actors? Not even a north african or arab accent (which I would have LOVED)????? Meanwhile, I'm pretty sure ORCS have black voiceactors. What's more offensive? Haha. I felt ripped-off to say the least. They dont even sound TOUGH!!! Come on guys, these are people whose ancestors split atoms with their swords causing suicidal nuclear explosions! They literally turn combat into a science and you give them the wimpiest voice in the game? It aggrivates me to no end hearing them talk!

They're Arabian/Moorish.

This. When I watched Doctor Who and Misfits. The black actors sounded just like the white ones. Lets say I first watched those shows and I had my eyes closed the whole time. I would have no idea what color skin the person who is talking has.

Kratos is voiced by a black guy, this is not racist - just a great voice actor and thats all that matters.

Yeah, but everyone knows London isn't in England as not a single white man lives there anymore, and it's all tourists and immigrants. As for the second picture, i don't know what it's from.

Doctor Who.

Wait, how old are you?

well i did say built up areas

and you dont understand in-game quotes
