I think it came out either right before or in the immediate wake of all the Gamergate bullshit

So the most online of players bought this game set in a historical fiction rooted in the many imperial nations who made slaves of northern Africans and proceeded to freak the fuck out that anyone at all might be darker than pale as a full moon.

This is honestly one of my favorite blatant but dumb racial freakouts of the past decade, because not only is it hyperbolic but so bland. Despite many obvious examples from real life, or as you smartly point out the totally made up "reality" that this stuff is, it's absolutely unacceptable for non-whites to occupy our daydreamy playgrounds - show me a single Black man in Mordor or King's Landing, asshole!
