Okay but genuinely, what games are there? I know of Celeste, and... huh, that's the extent of my knowledge. I need more canonically trans video games for my gay little transbian heart

Edith: Well, thank you all, you lovely little gamers, you^^

Any game that lets you choose body type and pronouns separately will have fragile little snowflakes complaining that this is "shoving it in their face" or "forcing it on them" somehow.

3 that come to mind are cyberpunk, Baldur's Gate, and Temtem.

Starfield. Such a sad shitstorm

[–] Thrashy@lemmy.world 7 points 9 months ago

Battletech let you choose your pronouns independently from the gender presentation of your little 2D avatar icon and butthurt GamerGaters review-brigaded the game and harassed the one trans developer on the dev team.

Great game, though, even if your ops guy's idea of advance Intel is telling you about reinforcements the turn after they open fire on you, the DropShip pilot lands by Braille on your head sometimes, and your shipboard engineer is probably a plant for the cornball tecnho-Illuminati who have been doing a space CIA for the last few hundred years... But I digress.

I think there is a character who is trans in Baldur's gate 3. Though I have no clue who they are, I probably keep killing them since I am of the opinion that collateral casualties are a myth.

Anyways time to start my first dark urge campaign.

When parts of The Last of Us Part II leaked, people mistook one of the main characters for being trans and completely lost their minds over it.

As it turns out, they weren't. >!But one of the supporting characters was.!<

There is a prominent trans character in Watch Dogs 2

[–] MystikIncarnate@lemmy.ca 5 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Didn't realize Claire was trans.

Makes absolutely no difference to me in how I feel about that character or the game in general. I suppose I just didn't pay enough attention during her missions.

Most of this stuff I haven't played, but I might now.

[–] Frozzie@lemmy.world 15 points 9 months ago (2 children)

She clearly mentions her transition in one of her quests. Also her car "Beast" has a big trans flag painted on the rear.

[–] MystikIncarnate@lemmy.ca 2 points 9 months ago

Aah. I'm not sure I really made it down her quest chain on my first playthrough. I'm planning to go through it again, and I'll pay more attention to her quest lines.
