Tiny tina (BL2) Might get a character change
Nightmare-Duckie:
Classifying her speech style as strictly "African American" seems more tribal than her actually speaking. It makes me die inside whenever people try to combat racism by segregating certain actions, beliefs, or styles of speech to one specific race.
Also I'm not arguing about any character in the game, I'm arguing about the principle of the debate. To be honest I didn't really enjoy Borderlands 2 very much and haven't played it in quite a while.

the thing that is mostly noticable is that it's almost always more white guys than black guys getting pissed about this sort of stuff because according to them, it's "tribal".
