babark: You're going on about 'wanting to exist' again :D. What is your first language, maybe I can find a way to communicate my point better to you. As for now, perhaps this example would help:
'There are GamePagers and FameRagers, there's no such thing as a GameRager, and anyone who disagrees needs to be villified and boycotted because they're catering to SJWs and PC, when they should only cater to me '.
Hope that helps!
Good example, but to me saying something doesn't exist doesn't mean it doesn't exist(usually).
Also if you mean genders than to me ALL genders don't exist as they are all social constructs. Of course that doesn't negate people believing in such or making new ones....that is just the stance I hold.
kai2: What I find interesting is...
The DNA of RPGs is choice -- choice in quests, choice in conversations, choice in character creation. CDPR's expansion of character creation in fact gives more choice.
How some are conflating this addition as somehow a reduction is beyond me.
Then there are people angry that this addition is "turning our children _____."
You and others seem to not be getting why this upsets some people...it's
not the inclusion of such and more choice....it's
WHY they usually add such(to sell copies to those in said groups and their supporters).
I agree more choice is usually a good thing, overall, and that
OP was upset over nothing.
As for "turning our children..."....OP might be wrong and most such beliefs might also be wrong but it doesn't disqualify ALL such statements by default.
Addition: Even though such things are unproven about media that you listed we still limit the usage of such by minors because they are impressionable and easier to manipulate.
