So how's that Oblivion 4 remake?

Who wants to take a vote of if Tarage is a Nazi? Afterall, "if the tag fits, it fits". If you can get a majority of society to do so, then I'd be hard pressed not to consider the notion. Good luck with that though. I'd love to hear your reasoning beyond "He called me a bigot and I don't like that".

The irony in this statement is the only one whos trying to exclude others are the people making games "for a modern audience, and if you dont like it its because its not for you, dont buy it"
Of course, when the sales are putrid because they've alienated 99% of the consumers, they cry about how "the chuds didnt buy the product".

It is a small thing that helps to be inclusive of others while not harming you in the slightest.
And again, if the world as a whole was against inclusion like this, explain Deltarune and Undertale.

 Mhmm. Using Steam sales is a bad metric dipshit. Baltro also has sales. That's how Steam works.

Because it explicitly excludes people who don't identify as either. Does that harm me? No. Does that exclude people who I think should be included? Yes. It's the exact same thing as having a character selection system that only allows white skin. It's excluding people. And are you saying that intersex people don't exist?

Because it explicitly excludes people who don't identify as either. I dont identify as Type A or Type B, I identify as male, so I am being excluded, as are millions of other gamers to satisfy the mental delusions of the probably 0.001% of the gamer base that dont identify as male or female. So I am being harmed via exclusion. And regardless of what they do or dont identify as, their "body type" is still male or female.

0.018% of the human population is intersex.
It's the exact same thing as having a character selection system that only allows white skin. Which based game is this?
By K123 2025-04-23 20:21:14
0.018% * 189,894 intersex people are playing it right now!!
Tarage is SO OFFENDED for them right now.

Your math is wrong:
If you want to get 1% of something, you'd do X * 0.01.
So in this case, its 189894 * 0.00018, so 34 people

Whatever, it's 2a.m. he's super offended for those 34 people

How does body type A or B represent me? A male?
Intersex people exist (though you don't need to invent a new word for it.. just pick it from the LGBTQ-TV dictionary). They are still either male or female. When you die, thousands of years from now scientist will be able to accurately miss-gender you.

This is objectively false regardless of your political stance lol. Some intersex people has both male and female genitals when they were born. Which means they are biologically neither male or female.
They may pick one gender role when they grow up, and identify with that in the society. But gender role and sex are 2 different things, and that is not a modern concept either. There are plenty of historical record about intersex people since the ancient time.
So... I have been increasingly frustrated with new games over years. I feel like so much effort it placed on graphics, lighting, art style, ect and maybe 10% of that effort is placed into gameplay, controls, and story.
My latest purchase was Visions of Mana, which I was pretty excited for. Secret of Mana is in my top 5 all time, I've played Seiken Densetsu 3 translated and while I didn't think it was as good as Secret of Mana, it was still extremely enjoyable. I skipped Trials of Mana since I had already played Seiken Densetsu 3. Vision is just bad. The english voice acting was awful, the characters were bland/generic or just stupid, and I was 3hrs into the game and all I was doing to running 30seconds between CS. Felt like a slightly interactive shitty anime.
Hogwarts Legacy, Visions of Mana, Baldur's Gate 3, Starfield... I felt like all of these super hyped games were absolute duds. Final Fantasy 16 is coming to PC in a few weeks and I'm not sure if I even want to try it anymore. I've heard people say not great things about it.
I know I'm just venting a bit here, but it really sucks being excited for a new game and then the crushing disappointment when it's not fun.
