Concord?
She looks better than the lead for the new Fable and Horizon. But she is the product of Sweet BabyI will never understand GAFs obsession with needing to want to fuck the main character of whatever game they're playing.
And she looks just fine? In what world is this the "single ugliest main character I've ever seen in a game"?
The character models look phenomenal when I saw it on my TV. Extremely detailed and stylized. Even the other NPCs. The older woman with the red hair looked cool. The main character looks great. Her lace dress costume is awesome.
Was it just "black people folklore" though? The Cajun south, the Appalachian south, the Antebellum South, LOTS of stuff that is not specific to just black people. It is a shared mythology thus the ethnicity of the main character isn't set. Besides, pretty sure I saw a screenshot of the MC standing next to a GIANT PLAYING A GUITAR, so it's fantasy. MC probably should have been a Japanese woman, historically there were some in that area, and the trailer could have her jumping around to jpop music!
Is it some weird requirement these days that the characters have to look like the actors? Fuck that, it’s voice acting.
adamsapple May have been already posted, but Parris confirms that the stop-motion effect can be turned off in gameplay (but not cutscenes):
If they're real-time then someone will mod them out on PC.
I think the trend towards facial motion capture is driving the game character to look close to the physical actor. And if they do that, but then "downgrade" the game characters looks versus the (usually) stunning VO actresses then you gotta wonder why. Now there is rarely a technical limitation, so its an aesthetic choice (in this case to have the MC look more like a scrappy type versus the actress). Funny thing is Rae is a yankee who only came to the South as an adult so hope she has a good accent coach

That middle one looks like a slightly improved Forspoken.Artistically and visually, this is shaping up to be incredible.
The game play looks standard, nothing out of the box, platforming and combat with powers.
Black people mostly live in the South of the U.S before the great migration with rest living in large cities. I'm assuming you aren't American.

Witch play trough? First maybe... third ? Never.
But neither Mississipi nor Lousisiana are majority black, not even close. Both are around 55-58% white and only 31-36% black. Georgia and Alabama are not much different. So there is definitely no "automatically MUST be black" requirement for the setting.
You should read what I wrote.
Tag team with me?
Only the first two games on your list are even released? lol
Hellblade isn't a game. South of Midnight is trying to de-emphasize gameplay. Indiana Jones should have been 3rd person. MS Flight Simulator has too much flying and not enough land vehicles. Too much focus on visuals and presentation. Too much IHOP promotions, not enough Taco Bell.
Eh, what that says to me is "Expect some really loooonnnnnngggg cut scenes with a bit of button mashing between them"
I did. Before the great migration,a good chuck of Black people lived in the south,so I don't see why the setting would would be problematic in terms of representation when there are too many games with Black leads with a southern setting.
