altk: Yeah, but women and non-white people in the West/Europe had to traditionally cope with that (except in the world of RPGs). How much of the male gaming population that played the Witcher series would be able to make a switch?
LootHunter: What are you talking about? Cyberpunk 2077 will have customizable protagonist. No one would have to switch anything.
It's just PR department that make demos with white dude for major audience and black girl for SJW press. In the game you will decide your avatar appearance.
Also, most gamers don't care about sex or skin color of protagonist anyway.
True, but you were mentioning Witcher which did not have a customisable protagonist. I am only talking about Cyberpunk 2077 in the context of this thread which has some people complaining about what they think is a political agenda taking over the development of the game.
As for whether, or not most gamers care about question of sex and race of protagonist, I doubt you are right. Of course, with customisable heroine, or a hero, much of this is just empty waffle.

... besides don't take my only chance of joining a discussion which contains words such as: SJW, triggered, (anti-)woke and my favourite -- snowflakes! You know, some of us are not on Facebook, or Twitter, or Discord, or whatever else ... I mean, I'm missing out on a whole lotta things :-P
