Games provide a window into other worlds, but for many BAME and working-class students that window is shut tight

ā€“ miles and miles of video game real estate where characters and stories are almost identical to the ones that came before, because the architects all look the same and want the same things.

Does this mean all your staff are retraining

10% BAME is not enough for The Guardian? Go on then. Tells us how many it should be? BAME makes up almost exactly 10% of this countrys population so how can proportional representation be unfair?

So the weekly meeting of how to gin up racist drivel vomited up this award winning article

Obsessed!

Jesus, can't you ever give it a rest 😠

Nintendo's games are all made by white middle class dudes from Wisconsin. That's just a fact.

Defund the gaudian

Could the Guardian be even more woke and divisive?

Oh no. We can`t have that. We need more diversity.

There are more important industries to focus on before we get to gaming... How about politics and the media? Both overwhelmingly white and middle/upper class and very disproportionately private schooled with more potential to have a very real impact on peoples' lives.

I'm just so sick of white people and their racist *spins wheel..... proficiency at Counter Strike.

F*ck off Guardian, we wouldn't wipe our arses with your rag 😂

More insipid race baiting from the worthless Guardian again.

What is wrong with journalists at the Guardian?! This is hilariously nonsensical

Yes

I smell click bait bollocks from the Guardian again 👍🏻

Games company's hire people based on the ability & talent. So the best way to get a job their is to learn the necessary skills. You are better teaching themself rather than rely on a university. Or better yet - dont get a job in the games industry as the pay and hours are hard

God Iā€™m so angry at white people and their *squints at notes* videogames.

could anyone care less is the real question

Is this a joke?

The one literally started by white guys in their bedrooms? Unlikely

Yay! Another article created solely for the purpose of causing even more division. I'm white and working class. I don't work in the gaming industry. It's not because the colour of my skin. It's because I am shit at game designing.

America is not the world

What kind of stupid ASS article is this? Are you trying to start a race war?
