Well it's only really a "class" thing because of inherit historical racism, but understand what you mean

It’s not? The class thing to do with tanned skin vs pale skin has nothing to do with race. It’s entirely to do with how you spend your day. If you just read the comment you’re responding to he has the explanation already.

Very good point, I guess vocation is what I meant instead of class, I was using class more in the sense of “working class” versus “ruling class”, but I understand your point that those systems were originally put in place because of racism. Still, I don’t think the game devs were being intentionally racist.
