The bigotry is probably a new thing for them then because at least back in the day they didn’t give a fuck as long as it made money. Bioware games usually had LGB(perhaps not T, don’t remember any) characters, often as romance options and I recall racial justice being a theme in both Mass Effect and Dragon Age games.
But I suspect the new owners don’t really want their games to infect anyone with the gays™
Ah, I didn’t know about that one because I could never get into Inquisition myself. Though it seems to have been well received enough as a game that perhaps I should try it.
Part of me wonders if Krem received less hate than some other Ts in media because the Internet hate machine mostly seems to have it out for MTF rather than FTM folks or because he genuinely had good writing rather than being shoehorned in
EA is exactly the republican party. Destroy everything they touch with loads of bigotry and sheer incompetence.
Are EA bigots? They have always been the epitome of amoral capitalism in the gaming world to me
Given their new owners, it wouldn’t be too far off to call them bigots now.
Valid point
Many game companies were bigots. shrugs. Another example is Ubisoft, founded by 5 brothers (no cooties eh), very toxic environment from my experience.
“Woke” was actually a problem with DA4 with how piss poorly the writers handled it, it was embarrassing. Absolutely not bigots

They had at least one T.

Typically MTFs are seen as “misogynistic perverts” and FTMs are seen as “misunderstood lesbians”
Neither are an accurate picture but one is far easier to sympathize with.
I wish it wasn’t so hard for people to see them as “folks just living their lives and not affecting mine in the slightest”
Everybody affects everybody else. We absolutely do not live in a vacuum. It’s why libertarianism fails.
Nonsense. A stranger transitioning to another gender has nothing to do with me. I have no business having an opinion on it and neither do you.
