For the cissies out there: you’re not a bad person for buying / playing this game if you didn’t know.
That last sentence was entirely there to accommodate cis fragility. :cissues:
Go read that post. The game is bad.

So is this kind of like that meme about fallout where the gamer goes "whoa cool fighting robots" at Liberty Prime or whatever as the nuance goes over their head?

I think we should all keep in mind that the marketing department is different from the dev department, and there is often a divergence between in-story messaging and marketing when it comes to games or movies. This isn't to say that you couldn't be right, you absolutely could be, just that we don't actually know that for sure. From a game-side of things exclusively, so far, I think its not that bad if you take other shit advertised within the story. It has problems but I still think trans people come off better than not having them in the game. The marketing I condemn wholeheartedly.

The point of the ad was to use fetishized trans imagery to sell a videogame. That poster was featured in IRL advertising as set dressing, and the company chose a cis woman cosplaying the poster model as a finalist in their cosplay contest. That's not an issue on its own, but the cosplay did feature a giant, glowing blue dick.

Yeah, if someone's looking at the game in a vacuum, a large part of CDP/CDPRs shitiness can be minimized, because the marketing is where they really pumped up the edginess to 11.

As the original post says, they use the ad in REAL LIFE to SELL THE GAME ITSELF so that defense does not work at all
