So let's talk about that Erik character . . .
I saw someone saying this is a trans character. I was immediately suspicious, and I went to look up some English gameplay. Sure enough, the voice in English sounds very feminine. The voice actor is Casey Mongillo, a non-binary who uses they/them pronouns. Based on Casey's voice and appearance, I say this is a biological woman, and she was recruited to voice Erik because of course they have to shove their activism into everything. In Japanese, it is very obvious by the voice that Erik is male. He is a typical Japanese pretty boy. These characters are quite common in Japanese entertainment, and there is no agenda here on the part of the creators. My recommendation is to play this game in Japanese with subtitles. The original Japanese dub will always better capture the intentions of the creators, especially if you know a little bit of Japanese.

Edit: It is clear to me that a lot of people are not actually READING the original post before they comment. Keeping up with this thread is exhausting, and I grow tired of correcting those with low reading comprehension. I am unsubscribing from this discussion. Knock yourselves out.

Baldurs Gate III is SUPER GAY and has ACTUAL TRANS CHARACTERS and you can pick your PRONOUNS (yes, even they/them). You can design a trans character LOL and it won what, GOTY? You don't say?

Concord and Dragon Age: Veilguard would like a word.

Bg3, kingdomcome deliverance 2, MH wilds apperently, death stranding, marvel rivals, every single assassins creed title ever, a majority of COD titles all want a word with you lol

Don't think I'm making this up either we got sheep who follow this list from here

And I have heard them parrot this group off as worth following, but it isn't unless you enjoy being part of a heard with blinders lol
Erik is just as annoying as most of the other characters. Nothing special about him.
Although he did run into a Lala Barina nest knowing full well what it was and how to confirm its presence. That was pretty special.

I won’t lie, that group is hilarious, seeing its members debate how many black characters makes game „woke and DEI” or if single female warrior is too much or not.

Not to mention declaring various porn games „woke because they promote LGBT”

This is so crazy. Its funny how all the anti-social justice warriors ironically became obsessed and triggered with any form of diversity and make it their whole personality down to making an-anti woke game list.

The amount of deflection and the fact youre completely disingenuous.

How is there a check list? Its one character. And who cares if there was a check list? Im actually failing to see why it is a problem to ACTIVELY add diversity. Because what is the problem besides the fact you are reminding that the world is extremely diverse?

I wasn't referring to this game specifically. I was speaking in broad terms. Didn't think I had to point that out.

The problem isn't adding diversity, the problem is that this "diversity" seems to be more of a priority than having a cast of good characters. For example, Nata - I don't care that he's brown, he's just ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ annoying and I dislike him as a character.

I feel like I'm repeating myself here. Again, Ripley would be a good character regardless if she was a man, lesbian, or black because she's simply written well. See how those small qualities don't define her overall character? That's what you get when you prioritize good character over "insert checklist item here".

Also, I'm playing a video game. I don't care how diverse the real world is.

Opprinnelig skrevet av Arlaiya:
Like please, why is a check list actually bad? Why is "forced" representation bad. Why would it be odd to have a trans person in monster hunter? Please, explain to me like I'm 5.
Why in a fantasy game with multiple humanoid races and flying beasts and lava monsters, is trans odd?

The checklist example is bad because, again, those things shouldn't be prioritized over having good characters.
It would be odd to have a trans person in the Monster Hunter setting because, as far as I'm aware, you need hormones to actually transition. How many pharmacies have you seen in this game? Or any Monster Hunter game. How would they even hand-wave this away in a believable manner? It's just odd for the setting.

You have the right to identify as bisexual where some states in america are trying to make being trans a felony. What rights of yours gets trampled on when an 11 year old kid starts puberty blockers? My partner is listed as "x" gender marker on their ID, what rights of yours was threatened? Trans people want life changing gender care and the right to identify without society forcing social constructs on them. What are these rights that bother you that we want?

Again, you're projecting.
I'm gonna be real blunt here and say I don't give a ♥♥♥♥ about you or anyone you know. As long as you're not breaking the law or hurting people, do whatever the hell you want. Is murrica in a screwed up state right now? Yea, it is. However, this topic of conversation was about video games. If you wanna be a bleeding heart over real life politics, ♥♥♥♥ off to somewhere else.

None of your argument really matters. Because why is a diversity check list bad, why is representation bad? It overwhelmingly is such a stupid hill to die on.

You know what's a stupid hill to die on? Demanding real life representation in a fantasy video game.
Honestly, who ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ cares? Are you crying your eyes out because you haven't seen any lesbians kissing in Monster Hunter? Are you staying up late at night over a lack of black people in feudal Japan? Are you angry that there's a lack of female knights in medival Europe?

Like I said, I want good characters. If they happen to be bi, trans, some minority, or whatever else, it doesn't matter. What should be important is that the character is written well. Making a priority of their skin color or sexuality is ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ retarded.

But MH wilds is the farthest thing from Concord or Dragon Age: Veilguard. They can't even be compared. BG3 also let's you kill the gay people and many other evil things. That's the main appeal of the game, it almost let's you do anything.

Let’s see MH wilds:

- a lot of black and brown people

- a lot of female characters in central roles - including in combat roles, like Olivia.

- player character referred to with neutral pronouns

- body types

- not gender locked armour, traditionally femle versions of armour
available for male characters and vice versa.

- dialogue lines mentioning respecting different cultures.

All the elements „anti-woke” people used to cry about in various games. It’s obvious that a game gets declared woke only when it fails, as clearly visible by the fact how people like you latched onto concord, a game about which no one „woke” ever cared about.

So being a human being, seeing the world has various cultures and people of various backgrounds in social and warrior standings regardless of gender is considered Woke and those against it are anti-woke?

Dude, that's literally been a thing for decades. People like yourself need to step back and understanding not all of this is a stupid culture war. You trying to make it as one is hilarious on its own.

As for men dressing in drag. My family mostly comes from the UK and often used in comedy. It's the same with Japan which is often used as a form of comedy. Basically you just self-burned by saying what you said. The addition of that is for comedy and by your logic, trans are added for comedy.

Big oof buddy.

Right lol the porn games made me chuckle, like it's a porn game 🤣

Spiderman 2 cuz you "play as miles deaf GF" appernetly not only is being deaf "woke" but it's unacceptable to play as a deaf person rofl. So my existence is woke :auyay: of course I'm only legally 50% deaf xD and she is VAd by a real deaf person Natasha Ofili

LOL How does having diversity have anything to do with writing good/bad characters. These thing are not juxtaposed. Both can exist, you can just point out the character as poorly written without blaiming "DEI" and "transness" and "representation". Its not like there is a diversity simulator and if it rolls on a black person the writers decide they have to consequently trade off on being a well written character.

Implying a fantasy game can't have a trans character because REALISTICALLY there needs to be doctors to perform REALISTICALLY in a FANTASY game is such a cop out. First of all, not every trans person even transitions physically nor wants to. The game is magical, you drink a potion and suddenly you can continue to get burned by lava. You want to be "realistic" now?

You are one of millions of consumers, and some consumers actually enjoy seeing diversity in their games. You then implied trans people wanted rights that you can't have, now you wont tell me these rights you were upset with?

A "bleeding heart" because I am okay with diversity in games? Yeah, because attitudes that promote hatred of a minority group over a video game is actually still "real life". OP was so triggered because of whatever personal beliefs that they made a whole thread on it and theres pages and pages of bigotry and people whining over diversity. Bro, be so fking for real. Like why alienate a group who also enjoy the game?

"Demanding real life in a fantasy game," I didnt demand ♥♥♥♥. I just accepted it, you should try doing that. Art is always drawn from the world around us, all because you're triggered by it doesn't mean there needs to be a ban. You could just try playing the game instead, or find a different game instead.

Not a real problem.

Why do you people hate trans people so much? I've never seen a reason other than that they're out of the ordinary. It really bothers me.
If you have to ask that question, then you are not paying attention to what trans people are doing. They are hated for good reasons.

You just transphobic. Plain and simple.

Ah yes, the good ol' "anyone who doesn't agree with me is homophobic, transphobic, racist, nazi, shill, blah blah blah."

Remind me again what happened in 2016 and 2024 for the elections when that was screamed at people? Mainly the younger generations who were told everything is their fault because they were born male and white?

I feel like you're either not reading or reading and then applying some kind of bias filter.
To reiterate myself for what seems like the 5th time: The problem is when the "diversity" overshadows the quality. That is the problem.

There is, as far as I'm aware, no precedent for trans people in any Monster Hunter game. The only analogue I can even reach out to is, obviously, real life. Am I saying it has to be realistic? No, that's why I asked how they could even hand-wave it away in a believable manner. If they can, great job.

I'll never understand people like you who put so much importance on diversity. I could care less about the sexuality or ethnic background of a cast of characters, I just want a fun game. Then there's ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ like you screeching from the mountains about there not being enough [insert demographic here] representation.

A game can be good and have diversity, I don't think anyone would argue that. The problem is when the priority IS diversity.

Well, if I ever needed proof that you're illiterate, this would be it.
First off, you ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ idiot, I'm not triggered. Well, I am triggered by your inability to stay on topic and read but I'm not triggered that "pEoPlE eXiSt". That was never the topic of discussion that I engaged in with you. Again, video games?

Secondly, you are demanding. You're demanding your real life demographics be represented in video games. Why is this even a priority? I've never personally watched a movie or played a game and thought to myself "Man, there were no overweight peg-legged cycloptic he/they latinos" and felt bad about the game. Who unironically does this? Oh right, you.

Lastly, I have like 70+ hours on this game. My only personal problem with this game was that the story ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ sucked and HBG got screwed over. You're not in a position to give advice.

I bolded it to make it clear lol hard to shove this off as "the classic tactic" when they aired the dirty laundry for us to see in plain site.

Also there is proven evidence that people across the swing states got disenfranchised by legal means, but they allowed singular people to challenge voters, in 1 state a woman submitted a spreadsheet of 60k people to challenge, and these people didn't even receive a fair chance to fight this challenge, majority of them minority, almost all of them known democrat voters, and singular people were allowed to challenge 10s of thousands of votes totalling 3.8 million across swing states with singular spreadsheets. Sure "it was legal" but it shouldn't be rofl
