Starfields is one of the biggest games of 2023 – but it’s joined other recent games like Baldurs Gate 3 in being boycotted by conservatives because of the way it interacts with gender.
Oh no… the biggest assholes in the universe are threatening to avoid these games… whatever will we do? Who is going to call people racial slurs over multiplayer now?
Yeah Ok, but there are message boards and mod communities and social media. Anytime bigots voluntarily remove themselves from the conversation is a win.
They don’t though. Look at the Steam forums. Lots of accounts not owning the game are pushing their garbage rage bait every day.
For now. It’s possible it can go multiplayer though like Skyrim and Morrowind through 3rd party apps/mods. I currently host a for fun pop up multiplayer Morrowind server using tes3mp. Skyrim has a similar 4 person co-op mod.
Oh no! Developers will have to choose between catering to bigots and catering to literally everyone else! What ever will they do?!?
Seriously, I hope bigots continue to just remove themselves from all aspects of society.
If the bigots would remove themselves from the voting booth that would be awesome. Is there some way we can link voting to being open minded?
I went to a comedy show in a somewhat “progressive” red area last night and the comic made a joke about pronouns (not in a negative light) but as soon as he mentioned pronouns pretty much the whole audience started booing at pronouns. It was pretty sad to see.
I genuinely cannot understand why anyone gets hot and bothered over pronouns. It’s crazy. They’re crazy people.
Because rather than have empathy for others and realize how their actions might affect others, they’d rather focus solely on themselves and make everything about them and how they’re inconvenienced.
it’d make some amount of sense if they were actually inconvenienced but i’m still not understanding the inconvenience tbh
Because the american education system failed them and they don’t even know what pronouns are, they just know that someone told them that they have to hate it with a passion.
Conservatives do excel at being outraged over nothing so this makes sense.
Who gives a shit?
