That's what I said, it doesn't pander to LGBTQ. Unlike a lot of other games in recent times, even in games where no form of real world politics have a place. So people are gonna encourage games that don't make that one of their main focus points of the game. Which is what I think is part of the reason why reviews are inflated over what it should probably actually be, I'd honestly rate it more of a 6 or 7 out of 10, but that's my personal opinion on it.
People can downvote me all they want but that doesn't change the fact that a lot of people are done with making games about politics and DEI, and developers putting that above better/more fun gameplay. There've been plenty of developers pushing this stuff in their games where it doesn't belong, let alone add anything of value. I never cared what the main protagonist is like, or what the rest of the game is like, as long as the game is fun.
OMG totally agree. It's so upsetting when my game isn't just about straight white characters.
Not what I said. And like many others entirely missing the point.
Yeah I'm making fun of you
