    There’s no difference between a movie casting a woman/black man as the main character, compared to casting a trans person?

      No, there is no difference.

      Your previous comments implied that there was a difference in type between the inclusion of women or people of colour, and the inclusion of trans of non-binary people.

      There is a difference in magnitude of the controversy. But not a difference in type. Something can be more or less controversial, but it’s still the same type of controversy.

        Yeah, it seems we agree. My stance was only ever that I can understand why some people would’ve wanted to remove political controversy from their escapism if it made them uncomfortable and added nothing to the gameplay itself.
