i appreciate the attempts a lot of game devs are making with gender neutral character creation, and i appreciate that it's actually a very difficult task to implement that depending on the game's base code. but it's so funny to me when you hear an uproar because some game has "entirely removed the gender option from character creation!!!!!" so you go to check it out and its just like
ok i know you get this a lot (because i was just going through your art tag) but your falin. so perfect. so gender. makes me feel like a real person? thank you for your service mwah
ive heard that quite a lot yes but it never stops moving me in some way btw. like ive never expected so many people to feel seen by a way i depict some character n thats so nice. genuinely!
You know it's kinda weird that Kojima never made a game with Nintendo, because in old interviews he seems to always talk about all these weird ideas for controls and game mechanics that he could never actually do. But he might have been able to experiment more on Nintendo consoles, given Nintendo's penchant for experimenting with different control schemes.
