I totally do not get how the Quorum of Ships weren't all, "I CALL GALACTICA'S HULL AS A GIANT TENT!"
I don't think any of it was intentionally racist either, but I can't help but think of the recently released Resident Evil game which is set in Africa and like, the entire plot is being a white guy running around Africa gunning down black zombies. These black zombies occasionally up and steal hot white chicks for you to rescue. And you're like...guys. I know that you are a Japanese company and thus have a different set of racial cliches that are probably on your radar, but this shit is bananas and you ought to pay someone to tell you that before you spend billions on game design.
I mean, okay, this isn't as blatant as that but like. Still.
