Body type 1 and 2

[gruevy]

Make whatever game you want. That's fine, I support you. But I'm also personally very sick of Body Type 1 and 2 instead of male and female. This is a stupid trend and it needs to die. This is a game I would have purchased, but at some point it's time to say enough. I'm just one man, it would have only been one sale, but I will not buy games with body type 1 and 2 anymore. I am writing this post because if there is no feedback, the devs never really know what's going on. Cheers

Everything in the character creator is just numbers.

indeed

Don't blame the devs - they're simply navigating the toxic cancellation mob. Support the devs instead and criticize the cancel mob.

I like that body attributes get more abstracted and not driven towards gender stereotypes.

Your wallet is the only thing that matters here.
When you buy a product you're vote is that this is fine and I agree and accept this. That's it.

And Hair 1 to 30. And Beard 1 to 18. In Fallout 3, hairstyles and beards had real names!

There's no gender stereotypes you're either one or the other. If you're confused look between your legs, if that doesn't help seek professional assistance.

Get yourself educated please.

They are in fact true believers, and you should not support them if you don't like it.

I beg to differ Just a heads up on what one of the developers strongly believes https://x.com/gothchild69/status/1846225656415432963
On top of bashing and directly attacking Thomas Mahler, the creative director and designer behind Ori and the Blind Forest, Ori and the Will of the Wisps and No Rest for the Wicked.

Eh, feels blown out of proportion. That first post was actually hilarious, in a sarcasmy way.

And what if, so what? Guys got an opinion, good for him. If they deliver a good game thats all I care about really. What bothers me about the woke crowd is specifically the cancel mob, not the opinions as such.

In fact, judging from these comments, It rather feels like its the anti-woke crowd trying to do the cancelling here. Shame

who cares? Seriously.

It's mind boggling to me that you even read anything into this.

It didn't even cross my mind that someone might have some issues with chosing how you want your character to look.

Why does it matter how that is represented. It's just a game. It's just numbers anyway.

Really you are stretching. Reading nonsense into a non issue for what? An excuse to continue to be outraged by nothing?

I've just seen a bunch of completely unhinged tweets by one of the devs (you can look them up in a now closed thread). I came to this forum with the intend of buying the game. There I learned it would cost 25 euros which is quite a lot since 20 Euro more will get you a game like "No rest for the Wicked." Speaking of which, the dev then started to trash Thomas Mahler, the CEO of Moon studios in one of his threads. Which is quite unprofessional but whatever. But then one of the users in this forum linked this tweet of the dev in question: "Got a game ind evelopment which lectures by being white is bad? Hit me up, I want to publish it" I'm sorry but this is just a terrible look. As a white guy I think I'll rather keep my money and spend it on a company who doesn't think I'm bad because of the color of my skin. I'm not supporting bigotry like that.

We are indeed trying to cancel them. I want them to go under. I want the sales of this game to tank, and all the devs to lose their jobs.

If your opponent plays dirty, then so must you. Or you will lose.

Haha, come on. Clearly that was sarcasm/tease. The devs are all white guys.

Why would it be? Especially in the context of all the other oppinions he has voiced in the few hours I've spend in this forum alone.
