It ruins the whole immersion. I can't see an elf here. All I see is just ridiculously dressed nigha from da hood.
>>215541811Were ancient black people in Africa ever using crossbows? Historically?
>>215542449I think it requires metalurgy.
>>215541811My immersion in reality is broken whenever I espy a nigger as only a cruel torturous simulation could think up such a monstrosity.
>>215543366You can definitely make something that uses similar mechanics as a crossbow without using metal even if it's not as sturdy or powerful.
why don't they make fantasy set in a world based on African history, folklore and mythology?
>>215543492No doubt but what I meant is that I think the crossbow never appeared in a civilization that didn't have metallurgy.
>>215543522MTG did this in the 90s and it was awesome, I would kill for a new set that took place in Jamuraa.African folklore/mythology/culture are actually very interesting, though they're nothing like the racist AI slop you posted
Remember the episode with the group of dwarves and it was a mix of short guys and actual midgets
>>215543589>the racist AI slop you postedNta but what is racist in that collage?
>>215543627Not him but collage is such a gay fucking word, the proper term for it is 3x3. Collage makes it sound like you're putting together a scrapbook with your mommy, LOL, pussy
>>215543832I have made collages with my mom in the past, but I can’t see why that would ever be something to make fun of. We had a wonderful time together. You should spend some time with your mother, instead of mocking the idea.
>>215541811>blacks exist in-universe>elves exist in-universeWhen they fuck, what do you expect the result to look like?
>>215543847kys trumpcuck
>>215543847Based. My kids make collage with the wife all the time.
>>215543859lol
>>215541811All I see is a DEI hire dressed as an Elf.Everyone knows that's what it is. There's a reason this shit simply wasn't in Jackson's Lord of the Rings and other Fantasy Media from that era but is ubiquitous in any corporate-produced Fantasy Media today: Becsuse back then they KNEW it looked ridiculous and was completely unnecessary, and that knowing/saying so wasn't "racist". But between now and then the Industry got taken over by idiots with Brain-Worms.
>>215543589>the racist AI slop you postedWait, how can an AI be "racist"?...
>>215541811pro tip how to watch things made after 2005: >if you see a nigger than isnt one of the top 5 grossing holywood nigger actorsfast forward>gay scenefast forward.>ugly womenfast forward.>short haired womenfast forward. >psych therapy scenefast forward>anything "realtor" or "real estate" relatedfast forward. >the earth is dying, climate changefast forward. turns out:>you can easily fast forward 50-80% of all modern slop productions, and lose NOTHING VALUABLE TO THE ACTUAL STORYfor example, watching Sandman on Netflix:>90% of the entire show was fast forwardedsame with:>The last of Us TV showyou can skip the entire 3rd episode and lose NOTHING.
>>215543962Sapkowski elves though are drug addicts, whores and criminals who live in ghettos. I'd say a black elf is very appropriate actually.
>>215544008>Sandman>The Last of UsBrother you watch obvious shit and you dare giving advices on how to enjoy it lmao
>>215544008At that point, why watch television at all?
>>215541811>Elf = Albus = White >Dark elf = white being that use dark magic or dark drip>African elf = oxymoron
>>215542449of course not
>>215541811
When you see them in places they never existed, you know that the moviemakers are pushing wokeness and idpol instead of making a faithful adaptation.
>>215542449lollmao
>>215541811They have decided to steal other people's culture to claim it as theirs so they don't have to own up to their own. They place all burdens on Whites to accomodate it or Whites are racist for rejecting racial appropriation. >>215543522Because they envy what the Whites have to the point to where they want to take it and claim all that's White as theirs. That's why diversity always materializes in the form of replacement of White people.
>>215546449It wouldn't piss me off as much if it wasn't so one-sided. It's always "WE HAVE A RIGHT TO OUR OWN CULTURE AND DON'T WANT YOUR CULTURAL AND RACIAL POLLUTION IN OUR CULTURE SO STAY OUT OF OURS WHILE WE HELP OURSELVES TO YOURS, WHICH YOU BETTER INCLUDE US IN OR YOU'RE RACIST!" So we need diversity but absolutely no one of any other race does. It's non-stop one-sided hypocricy.
>>215541811Fun thing is, according to science white people didn't exist until ~200 years ago.There's no records of white people before that, every discovery points at europe being 100% black in the medieval times.White people in fantasy movies is innacurate.
>>215546449They don't even pass as regular humans wtf were they thinking?
>>215546862Try 2500 BCE. Bell Beakers were already quite light skinned.
>>215546756It's fine to make Yasuke a samurai which is bullshit historical revisionism. So wokefication works on two races.
>>215541811fantasy setting is inherently european and black people are also visually distinct/unappealing for anything other than jungle or urban setting
>>215543522
>>215547187There were blacks in Europe. There are literally depictions of them in medieval art, so someone clearly saw them.
>>215547250Extremely few, because travel was arduous.
I miss the 80s and 90s diversity. Blacks in fantasy or historical settings were clearly depicted as exotic outsiders, as they should be.
>>215547310Anne Boleyn and Cleopatra were black.
>>215547250>There were blacks in EuropeEurope was 99% white within living memory, you're not gonna pass this retarded propaganda on anyone
>>215547357It probably wasn't. While blacks were uncommon there were a lot of Asians or some hapas living in East Europe.
>>215547378> there were a lot of Asians or some hapas living in East Europe.lmao there literally weren'tEuropeans lived their entire lives without seeing none whites until the 20th century
>>215541811>NetflixNever watch anything made by them. Simple.
>>215547457That's 19th or 20th century. There were all kinds of nomads in different eras.
>>215542449yeah, they did, look it upthey developed them right after the wheel
>>215547250There so much blacks in Europe that there were human zoos up until early 20th century to show people how blacks looked like lol
>>215547486>That's 19th or 20th century.You're so fucking stupid you cant tell which century footage is from but you're gonna lecture me about the composition of the European demographics back thenlmao
>>215547544Yes. And yeah, I barely looked at your webm. I just saw a train. It's 20th century. Doesn't matter. There were all kind of Turkish people in medieval Eastern Europe.
>>215547324Picrel and Robin Hood: Men in Tights were p. good with their portrayal of blacks>in fantasy or historical settings
215547675Right. Billions of blacks lived in Europe since Cheddar Man.
>>215547675>There were all kind of Turkish people in medieval Eastern Europe.There were some raiding Eastern Europe and the Moors in Spain, but most fantasy is centered on and based around medieval England, France, and northwestern Europe.
>>215547378>>215547486>>215547675my Scottish friend had never seen a black person before he came to live with family in England.
>>215541811The current shows aren't even based on fantasy just the diverse writing room’s wishful larping
>>215541811They gave him elf ears, but I bet his real ears are hideous enough.
>>215547855There isn't even anything "fantasy" about this shit. Just larpers.
>>215547855Is the poojeet in the bottom right some kind of wizard?
>>215547855Robert Jordan's WoT cast.
>>215543522An epic of Sundiata story would be cool
>>215541811you stupid CHUDS don't even know history. Blacks have been everywhere, in every country, all at once. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6M-qsVS8zeUAlso, I would LOVE a bmw with optional heated seating in my European inspired fantasy world.
>>215548101Speaking as someone who grew up with the original Horrible Historys books I despise this show, how it uses the name to shoehorn in this bullshit
strange how we did not mind when we were kidsI cried when they killed Snail in the original D&D
>>215543522I will tell you why. Because they don't actually have great settings and manpower for it.There's so much you can do with a bunch of huts and a savanna or a boring jungle. Or shitty cities with tin houses. People don't actually want to see that on screen. It is ugly and depressing. Not to mention it is insanely hard to actually produce something in africa. Moving things across borders takes months and bribes every 15kms. And there are no well educated workers who can actually work in productionsWith europe, USA, Asia and even Latam even if to a lesser extent, you have much more versatility. USA is great at making pretty much anything, but exceedingly good at making large productions, europe makes shit with amazing ideas and beautiful settings, asians also make a little bit of everything, latam makes oddball shit that makes it big every now and then like Narcos or the Eternaut.Have you ever tried watching an african movie? It is fucking painful and extremely poorly done and written even when they have something like Netflix behind them. Best attempt at that was the woman king and that was nasty
Humans are retarded. That’s the only reason why this shit happens. It’s that simple. Why do you overcomplicate it by saying crap like “it’s politics forcing it!”, when none of that would matter had people not been retarded. There are no adults in the room saying “um that makes no sense”. Everyone just smiles :) and says “yes haha”.
>>215543522Few had a problem with Black Panther which was written by two Jews.
>>215541811OH LAWD DEM RANGZDEM RANGZ OF POWAH
>>215546862>200 yearsand yet there are much much older paintings, illuminated manuscripts, mosaics, tapestries which say otherwise, not to mention the 10 thousand year old bodies preserved in peat bogs, etc
>>215541811I can understand that. Personally I feel that way about all fantasy. Its called Fantasy but its really "my lotr ripoff". People watch and read this shit all the time. Bad LOTR fanfic books by the hundreds.
>>215548291It's different when its a token black
>>215541811>It ruins the whole immersion. I can't see an elf here. All I see is just ridiculously dressed nigha from da hood.Yeah, but in the past decade, you cannot have a Lord of the Rings style casting anymore. Ironically,there are more European-inspired fantasy animes that are immersive and faithful than anything "modern" from the western world. >>215546449Pic related>>215547475I seriously wonder if shit like the OP's image is what made Henry Cavill quit the show.
>>215548915So >>215548568 is right and these people are just retarded
>>215548934Yes. A smart person would go “…So? We are making a good story here, not some political letter.”, and that’s all you’d need. The issue is there’s too many retards and soft pussies (retards) in the writing room.
>>215543522They did with resident evil 5. Cultists threw a big hissy fit over it
>>215547502Being an astrophysics came with great responsibilities.
>Elves can't be black because... they just can't, okay?
>>215543522>African history, folklore and mythologyDo they have any ?Muh dick didn't count.
>>215549021It was the last enjoyable resident evil game.
>>215549173>What did ya' said?>Am gonna beat yo ass in front of mine jewish bitch
>>215541811I find it exhausting to be rascist because generally I like to give people leeway and the benefit of the doubt. But goddamn its so fucking hard to find positive examples of these fucking people
>>215549173Does it make sense in-setting? No? It doesn’t? Then elves can’t be black.
>>215549173
>>215548291Diddy noooo!!
>>215547855one of them must be The Witcher, what are the other three? lol
>>215541811Why didn't they bother to color his skin green anyway? That's an orc right? Talk about being lazy...
>>215549291The Elves are all-white in the Tolkien books and the Elf in the OP's pic is from the show based on Tolkien. There is not a sinlge black Elf in the Tolkien books.
>>215542449They weren't. There's a documentary about a white man bringing on and the retard negroes being dumbfounded by it. Then it reminds me of when they got their hands on a American rifle. They ask the american if turning the scope dial to a higher number caused more damage and power. Really funny stuff.
>>215549389Exactly. It depends on the setting. Elves in Middle-Earth, and indeed elves in the mythical sense, are modelled after white pale fair skinned beings. Even in a setting with black elves, with an actual history or background to them to justify it, it will be coming across as a creative liberty. This is simply due to the fact that elves are all associated with white peoples/cultures.
>>215549315How exactly is posting a transphobic gif supposed to prove me wrong?
>>215547357Man, is that beautiful. Looking forward to seeing this again.
>>215547457>me knowing about gypos
>>215541811i watched this with a friend and his 2 super woke friends. they got stoned and one of the woke guys snorted laughing when this "elf" showed up. the other guy was legit pissed at him, he flinched and they later got into a pissy argument after doing coke.
