So Im wondering. And let me make this clear im all for Trans people to have some rep in games and other media. In fact I really liked the trans character in Watch Dogs 2. Felt realistic and not forced.
Now we are seeing people talking about how cool it would be if a new character in Ratchet and Clank would be trans. To me that feels A. forced and B. not the right game for it. R&C is a family friendly game that mostly focusses on kids. Why should we put trans characters in such a game? Will Dora the Explorer talk about how trans people are normal as well? Will she meet a new explorer who is a Trans child?
I have nothing against gay, lesbian, trans or any other orientation (aside from furries, yuck) but what is this obsession with having Trans people or animals in a game?

Well I saw plenty of people on Twitter hoping that the female Lombax was in fact a Trans Lombax.
To which I said, what would it even matter? Well because we want representation they said.
I just think it's weird to want to shoehorn a certain sexuality into something that clearly doesn't engage with that part of the world.

Should be considered pretty harmless even to a transphobe like yourself.

Not sure how I'm a transphobe 🤷🏼♂️. I just don't see it as something normal. Probably because it isn't. That doesn't mean I'm against trans people at all though.
