    Subnautica Below Zero. The g*mers are all predictably up in arms because the protagonist is a black woman (who you never see and has barely any voiced lines anyway), so that's fun. It's good and it's really pretty but it's not quite up there with the original

      Omg lemme guess it’s “immersion breaking” bc it’s not a “blank slate” like in the original game

        ah fuck i went to find one of the threads and at the top post i found this instead talking about the voice of your ingame computer system (cw: racism)

        but yeah the political gender and the political race, plus why am i forced to play as someone im not, i say as i ignore my steam library full of grizzled white male protagonists

          “Im fine with gay people just don’t shove it in my face, anyway let’s watch one of these millions of pieces of media that’s entire plot revolves around a heterosexual relationship.”

          Holy shit just looked at the link was not expecting that wtf

          The voice isn’t even that different, i didn’t even think about it. Ughhhh i fucking hate gamers.
