As bad as the Nakia Cockatoo "model" is, it potentially, in this day and age presents a possible PR disaster for the AFL and WW.

I can see bone headed social justice warriors getting wind of this, seeing an opportunity, and saying:
"Hey look at this, the AFL has licensed and endorsed a video game that portrays indigineous player, Nakia Cockatoo as an ugly white man"

That's ridiculous. No one would think that. There are plenty of indigenous and players from other countries whose skin they've modeled correctly. It's just a stupid mistake.

I guess I can understand a guy slipping up as he's modeling the players and picking the wrong skin colour, but I'm surprised there's no sort of QA who went through and compared the models against photos of the players.

Why did they facescan so many 33 year old spudlingers instead of actual good players?

It is a bit odd. If they facescanned younger players they could have used the scans for the next iteration or two.
 
That's ridiculous. No one would think that.

You're half right.
No NORMAL person would think that.
You've clearly not spent much time on twitter if you think no one does. Or that they don't whip themselves into a frenzy over ridiculous stuff like that.

It's just a stupid mistake

Couldn't agree more.

So you're getting outraged at your own quote about how you think SJWs will react?

Ive never seen someone trigger themself before.

I hope I took that as the joke it was intended to be...
Because
A) it was very good
and
B) I couldn't be less outraged about anything.

Except at people who're easily outraged..

Fair enough, but those are heavily based on media coverage, thus the extreme Vic bias in the list.

AFL player ratings are pretty handy as well, even Fyfe doesn't even appear in the top 40.

25/40 os these players belong to 9/18 non-Victorian sides. Vic bias - turn it up.

Hang on a sec.

Nobody has reacted to the Cockatoo scan, except in a bemused way. Everybody can see it's a technical oversight. You've made up a reaction in an outraged fashion that nobody has expressed.

Twitter? There are a shitload of right wing SJWs whinging about not being able to wish others a happy easter. w***ers.

Maybe you should stop inserting your identity politics into the thread and stick to discussing the video game. :thumbsu:

What? I'd love for you to point out where I was at any stage outraged by anything?
In fact I said in my next post it was mainly tongue in cheek.
And the whole thing "a wee bit funny"
I'm not at all outraged by cockatoos likeness. It's clearly a silly little mistake. Which I find FUNNY..
My point was there are people that may not necessarily see it as just a silly mistake.
 
Wow, we really need this gameplay trailer so everyone can stop being narky at one another! Lighten up kids, it's long weekend time!

Dude nobody will see it as anything other than a silly mistake. Chill.

This time last week they were 'finalising' the trailer and here we are a week later and it's still not here ?

I get they've been working hard and been busy but this is getting ridiculous

There's only 3 weeks left till release and still no footage
