Dumb question but wouldn't the game using your preferred pronouns actually add to the immersion?
Like I guess I play games differently because it doesn't bother me if I play a boy or girl character but if you are so hung up on the game asking your pronouns it seems like that's the kind of person that would WANT the game to call them by their pronouns.
He's not actually upset about "immersion". He is upset because to him, this is a reminder that his side is "losing the culture war" as he feels. That the natural hierarchy, that right-wing ideology is based upon, is being disrupted because those at the bottom of the totem pole are being acknowledged as members of society on the same level as him. This kind of thing is unnatural and unacceptable to chuds.
It's like Jesus said: "Fuck the marginalized of society."
Also they are the fucking dorks that made this whole "culture war" in the first place. Try explaining to one of these people that they've walked by transfolk irl and not even realized it, like at all. It doesn't compute to them. They seem to think that trans only existed in the last 2 or 3 years. I had that convo with an ex-coworker because he thought there was a whole ass army of men dressed as women waiting to bum rush every public restroom to scoop up little girls.

Yes. His rant about immersion makes no sense. Also ranting about "current day" over and over again as if California invented gendered pronouns in 2020 and they wouldn't exist in the future?
It seems to me that he is so caught up in the culture war news cycle that he is unable to understand that these things exist outside of that and his brain is unable to process the word "pronouns" without thinking of Steven Crowder. Like some kind of twisted pavlovian response.
This right here is really probably what it is. Why weren't these incels throwing hissy fits about picking genders pre-2020? Like, idk you could pick your gender in Skyrim, Oblivion, Morrowwind, and any other Bethesda game. Does Starfield allow for [they/them] because if that is the only difference, then it's absolutely a Pavlovian response caused by shit like Chowder, Carlson, Shapiro, et al. And it's frankly disgusting. And I guess back to the old question, do these people not recall learning about pronouns in their language arts classes back in school before they dropped out? Gonna find out if this person has Twitch account and gonna hop in chat and start calling him "her".

Yeah, of course.

Fun fact: the bottom of the totem pole is the most prestigious place
Huh, TIL
I feel like if I said "top of the totem pole" when referring to people at the bottom of the hierarchy, people wouldn't get it though.

They think every trans person is a caricature like in their memes

California has plenty of chuds. Take it from me.
