I doubt anyone would mind if they had a female gta protagonist. Like a certain segment of a segment would go apeshit but that's how they get off. I kind of get what he means with the Mafia games, nothing really stopping anyone doing a Francis Ford Coppola style game well with a black protagonist but as I understand it that game wasn't that. I watched a friend play 15 minutes of it and there was a lot of Nbombs. See its ok if you're depicting racists and not at all grating in the early 21st century.
