Trans now taking everyone's gay card
-
I never really care that much about character customization, as long as the game is fun, story is good, etc then it doesn't really matter. In some games it does make sense to have it though
-
I agree. I loved FFX and there's zero character customization, really. I just enjoyed the story, characters, and immersion. God I miss games not having to have political subtext shit attached as a damned requirement
-
idk I'm from the olden days when we only got to change a character's name and weapons. The rest is nonsense for me. lol just tell a decent story
-
I do like a varied character generator, they've been damned addictive since Spore, I just don't see much point to trying to cater to a condition that affects <1% of humanity.
Maybe make that DLC content or some shit, so I can just vote it away with my wallet. It definitely shouldn't be a priority for the base game though, as it adds very little but a virtue signal.

@ShotgunShuffle @Sui @kroner yeah i know man when i make a character in an RPG i always make them look exactly like me down to the smallest detail that's what you do right?
-
I haven't heard of any trans characters in the game itself, you can play through it normally I think :shrugge:
-
From back in 2021, whole bunch of articles on it being troon friendly as attempted damage control.

That's so odd. Isn't the point of trans to BE the opposite sex? We're told they ARE a man or woman and we're bigots for saying otherwise.
Why play as a character who is also transitioning?
-
idk man, I don't really see how the game is "woke" per say, from what I saw so far the game actually looks pretty decent but we'll see.
I like how ResetEra has already pre-emptively banned all discussion of the game from their forum despite the fact that most of them will buy it and 100% it anyways (like they did for Cyberpunk 2077 lmao)
-
There have been a number of discussions, various things like trans characters and it the potter franchise being woke/regressive in general.
The most I've found personally at least, is that JK doesn't appreciate men doing womanface. But that it hasn't affected the game in any meaningful sense.
-
From what I've read, the game's pretty fucking woke/modern. It's literally just because they have a betrayal hateboner over the TERF that gets the royalties.
I have to keep reminding myself of that, or I'd have a pre-order copy sitting next to Hatred in my spite section by now.
