I did actively notice that there is writing specifically included to take advantage of the fact they have a pronouns selector. The first example I spotted was a "hey new girl" from one particular npc, which would then refer to me with that moniker a few too many times thereafter.
I feel like if I noticed it and felt like it was included specifically for doing gender affirmations then it probably sends people like this into an absolute frenzy, which makes me laugh.
I mean, selecting gender has been in games since well before pronoun discourse. That's literally the "Prof Oak asking if you're a boy or a girl" stuff. The divergence comes when you have a masc body/face with "she/her" pronouns or sth.
What the Epic G*mer chuds fail to realize is that they receive gender affirmations themselves in their "nonpolitical" games where everyone must play a grizzled middle aged white man that kills otherfied less-than-people to avenge his fridged wife and/or rescue/protect his camera-oogled teenage daughter figure while also sometimes having le sexy cishet sex.
