Fair warning, it is hardcore and time intense, heh, but also an incredible labor of love. It’s so medieval it hurts.
just throwing a bunch of PoC into a random setting and calling it a day doesn’t cut it
I guess this is the hair I’m trying to split. It’s not “PoC” that’s jarring for me, I don’t like that term at all. People don’t have to be white, or any skin tone; that’s just skin deep, and that’s never been a factor turning me away from media. They can be mixed even if cultures are distinct.
But just… blah worldbuilding is boring. And yeah, sometimes bad shows get some token diversity cast that’s frankly insulting to said cast. But that feels like a symptom of deeper problems, not something specifically turning me away.

yes, but I think it’s the most obvious and consistant problem for most shows. another one for example is in the case of WoT the lack of architectural styles in different culutres.

Otherwise I largely agree.
