It depends on how it's done, IMO.

I'm not saying if she kills one of those monsters I'm going to lose it. I've played Fallout more than any game out there so I know it's very diverse but it's organic.

I'm saying if we get some nonsense like the totally inorganic team up scene in Endgame, that's where I'll have the problem. You can almost literally see in that scene that someone said "take all the men out, women only" even though there are dozens of men in the area.

If she girl bosses a Super Mutant or Deathclaw, my eyes might roll out of my head.

Wrong. No one should be able to strong arm a Deathclaw without severe modifications or large explosives.

When you guys stop freaking out when it's not about you, they'll eventually stop shoving it down your throats.


I mean, this is why DEI is a thing, these reactions. You get that, right?

I used to think that, until I actually started working with DEI types. You'd be shocked to find out just how much they are like Truth or any other organization, it's just never enough and they will just continue and further their viewpoints. Easiest way to think of them is basically like cat hoarders, most people are fine with one or two, but they need as many cats as they can to fill the void. At a basic level, I do agree with you. I don't care that cyberpunk allows a dick on a chick. The problem is slippery slope is no longer a fallacy, it's a suicide pact. The next game has to show their credentials by going even farther, and eventually they no longer become games but political statements.

Right? Everyone knows only white males can survive an apocalypse.


Well, the left is always pointing out how people of color are disproportionately impacted by anything and everything. I guess there is some validity to only white people surviving.

I’ve always said though a big unrealistic part of the series is how well women are treated. In a real apocalypse situation like that, being a woman would be absolutely horrific.


Yeeaahhh... there's a reason they don't do that.
