Is a massive disrespect towards the author and his work.
The characters and races of LotR are already well established, defined and described in the works.
 
Inserting diversity is absurd, since is disingenuous and tokenizing, not to mention that it implies that we should be happy to get sloppy seconds.
Instead of trying to "fix" old works, I rather have new works that represent the era they are made on (good works, that is.)
 
 
Plus, this "diversity" push is always done on works that are european/white centric.
Is racist as fuck, specially because you don't see the same push to make something similar on works from other areas/cultures.
 
It is what it leads to absurd shit like claiming that Cleopatra was black.
 
Edit
 
There is more value in having something like Encanto than a mexican hobbit.

I am not.
LotR is meant to represent a mythological england.
Is as absurd as trying to insert "diversity" on mayan myths for example.
I don't need to see a tetra mixed latino to connect with the story.
 

What makes you think Americans qualify to immigrate to Canada in the first place?

Things are only going to continue and get worse as long as there is not proper consequences.  Whenever the punishment is light or nothing at all then people will continue doing whatever nonsense it is they want to do.... and yeah I'd say it's because most humans are opportunistic, untrustworthy scum....not an ounce of morals, honor, or even basic levels of decency, respect, etc.  ...like sentient trash that should be thrown away or burned to nothing, basically.
 
...and again I must admit that this view of the human species might be admittedly skewed because of the terrible, embarrassing "city" I happened to be raised in....but then again, I also wonder if I would have a view that is overly optimistic/naive if I grew up in a generally nicer/safer place. 

Lily confirmed a 9-1 matchup in her favour. 😔

I'm not. Just like I'm not okay with it in The Witcher on Netflix either. It messes with the established lore. If I write a story taking place in mythical land based on sub-Saharan Africa. It shouldn't have a diverse cast. It should be filled with almost exclusively brown people. 

Dudley plays nothing like Balrog though. And if the game can accommodate several shotos, and 2-3 "wind users", it can accommodate Balrog and Dudley at the same time. They did it before with great success.

But I think Balrog will come first. We'll be lucky if we get SF3 characters besides Ibuki next year.

I meant he’s a rep for modern SF. Even though he’s probably close to or older than 30 now, he’s still fresh and young like Ed.
 

He’s like neither because they are both coming in season 2!

Bear with me but Rashid is too damn hot in this game! They absolutely nailed the look, the outfit, and the cockiness.
 
If this is the DLC quality going forward then 4 per year makes sense.

The VA. The animations. The model. The style and charisma. I fucking love him! Welcome back!

This is actually really cool! Very happy for Max!
 
Looking forward to your gorilla collabs @EvilCanadian❤️ ... We'd get there faster if someone showed some love for you who on you know what!

We only getting 2 new stages  with the pass unless you count a CPT stage.

 

Rashid was very likely older than 20, wich put him in his 30s in SF6
 
Making rough estimate would say SFV close to 25 and SF6 close to 35

The scene with Rashid parkouring on the trains is obviously his WTM introduction.  His fight intro is the shot later of him setting up the camera.
I think AKI will actually use the Tian Hong Yuan stage.  As it doesn't actually show up in WTM, since all the Chinese characters are hanging out in Metro City instead.

I could've done without Lily. The most interesting part about her is that she could become a monster when she's older. In SF5 the "electricity users" were separated by several seasons also. Two wind in year 1 is odd. 3 if you count Manon who uses suction. 
 
There is an official concept art in the game that shows Rashid as part of the new generation of characters in SF6 and excludes Lily. Which I think implies that Rashid was meant to be on the base roster instead of Lily originally.
 


I guess they switched it up because Lily would've made the first season DLC a weaker product.
