Prior to the last 20 years or so, diversity in a fantasy game was the result of the nerdy dudes in the development team cooking absolute heat with their worldbuilding, going into autistic detail. They were made on the understanding that this worldbuilding should ultimately serve the purpose of making the world more rich and interesting.
Modern diversity is a political statement of ideological liberalism. "Why wouldn't there by Chinese people in this fantasy world inspired by the quaint shires of Medieval England, after all, there's Chinese people in England right now!" It's boring. It asserts aggressively that all the NPCs have no differences despite their obvious differences. The black woman will act and think and speak no different to the indian man, they will all just be veneers stapled onto the frame of the same universal human type. It's grey goo.
Diversity is cool as fuck when it's done well, it tells you so much about the world and the people and the culture. To have the Redguard show up in Whiterun and see their vastly different dress and attitude towards the people was interesting and cool.

How is The Elder Scrolls the only fantasy game to do diversity and not piss people off?

The practicality & ease of cooking in bulk>>>>
Easy to relate with & understand when you do it yourself, hence why cooking is an essential life skill regardless of gender, imo.

Pulsechain Devs are cookin
๐ฅ Vitalik recently shared a new idea for building stablecoins on Ethereum.
Instead of the current way โ where you deposit ETH, borrow dollars against it, and risk getting liquidated if the price drops โ he suggests splitting the ETH into two tokens. One token works like a stable dollar with much lower risk of big losses. The other token takes the upside when ETH goes up. These two tokens always add up to the original ETH, so thereโs no debt and no forced liquidation when prices fall.
This approach could become a new trend in DeFi. It trades a small amount of price drift for a much safer and simpler system that doesnโt rely on constant price monitoring or sudden liquidations.
Ethereum has always moved forward because of people and teams willing to try new ideas early. We need more projects experimenting with concepts like this to help the ecosystem grow stronger.

Roommates half complained I was cooking today cause they failed to communicate to me that they were planning on cooking. I cooked for myself and cleaned up after myself for them to cook.
Fast forward to me leaving for my overnight shift. Massive fucking mess in the kitchen.
