    I bet there was a whole group of people that were really upset when they put a checkbox for female on legal documents. "The woke mind virus thinks women can take care of themselves and should have rights"

    Genuinely can't imagine being mad about this part of character creation when the more pressing issue for if you are a big gamer who care about video games, is that the game doesn't let you pick your own skills.

        No no its way dumber than that, there are some form of skills in the game still, but they are assigned in fixed sets of 3 to the various "backgrounds" of the game, and there is no options to change what skills each of these sets have, even the blank slate background has 3 fixed skills.

    I wanna make a popular video game with the most robust character creation anyone has ever seen but it will not let you make a standard white guy.

      I unironically thought about it. Should I ever make a game Im gonna make white people dlc. Like If you wanna be a cracker at least pay for your white privilege.

    It's true, billionares are paying me thousands to be trans so they can sell more bathrooms and pronouns.

    It's like when I went away from school for a week on holiday. I came back and everyone had yo-yos and I was like "damn. Everyone's got yo-yos" but now I went back to Baldies Gate after 25 years and I was like "damn. Everyone's got pronouns"

    unlike you snowflakes I don't care about pronouns

    spends an excessive amount of time and effort whining about pronouns instead of using/selecting/etc a pronoun, which takes no more than 3 seconds

    the real crime in that UI is that everything is just a shitty number and i have to slowly look at each position on the fucking slider bar and then try to remember what position the eye or hair color i liked was

    Every time Gamers(tm) rant about pronoun options I turn on the communist mind virus nanobots to convince another western game dev to make their game woke. (Because communism is when you add a single dropdown menu at the start of the game)
