Desmond is a protagonist, but his segments tend to last less than a couple of hours. The games are completely dominated by whatever ancestor you are playing as. They are the character on the cover, the character in all of the marketing, the character who has a story and an arc. Desmond is almost entirely a plot device.

It is coop, and there are four protagonists. Video games, more than any other medium, can have multiple protagonists. Same with Dead Island--three of the four are not white. I already said that there's a trend in video games to only allow for non-white protagonists if there are multiple protagonists to be played.

And I've played literally hundreds of videogames

But you've apparently learned nothing about them.

I've forgetten to mention some of the CoD protagonists have been non-white, the protagonist of TimeSlitters and the protagonist from Just Cause.

You know, this is coming across a lot more of a defense of race in gaming than I meant it to. The state of it is abhorrent. What I'm arguing against is your complete misreprentation of my choices and apparent ignorance of some video games and their protagonists.

Whoa whoa whoa hold up. Which CoD protagonists have been non-white? I've played the whole series and I can't think of any who are explicitly non-white. Jackson (CoD4) and Ramirez (MW2) we never get to see from anything but a first-person perspective, and many people assume Ramirez is hispanic, but... he's never stated or shown to be, and many people just assume he is white or depict him as white as a result.

Many of the supporting characters, like Foley, Griggs, Bowman, Farid, Salazar, etc., are non-white, but the protagonist that the player plays has always either been white or not given a race.
