You said in your comment “they tend to have appearances” which in itsself alludes to the true fact that there’s some who won’t be “covered”. I was more upset by your dismissal of their experiences than I was by your game design suggestion.
I think you’ll find a good many intersex folk would have something to say about being “covered” by being entirely excluded by your arbitrary choice of categorisation.
Biological sex is far more complicated than small and large gametes. You can choose (somewhat arbitrarily) to define biological sex by one or more of
The only people who think biological sex is a simple categorisation are people who don’t fully understand the biology of sex.
But like, not everybody is born one of two biological sexes, so if we’re doing away with societal constructs we may as well get rid of this nebulous concept of a rigid biological sex binary.
You’d be comfortable eating food prepared by a Nazi? I sure as hell wouldn’t.
To be clear, nobody was outraged by the devs using gendered language. The outrage was because they rejected multiple PRs to correct it under the guise of it being “political”.
Do cloud platform storage operations count? If so, in the hundreds of terabytes (work)
Eh I can sort of understand it in this case - many people are used to thinking of things in amounts of kilowatt hours.
If your journey was 1200 kilometres people might look at you strangely for saying 1.2 megametres

Favourite: Steam Deck, hands down. It has totally revolutionised the way I play games. I very often choose to play games on my deck instead of on my far more powerful pc.
Least favourite: Smartphone. The closest I’ve come to having an enjoyable traditional gaming experience on a smartphone was Sky: Children of the Light but even then I was constantly getting frustrated with the touchscreen controls and dealing with my phone getting as hot as the surface of the sun. Its also just not a comfortable shape to hold while you game.
I don’t know if I can say this “awakened” something in me because I was well aware of it but. Where is the rest of the story OP.
Fae: GIVE ME YOUR FIRST BORN

Eh, but maybe the barbarian should have to think about whether smash is the right path forward?
Also, you can have an individual group of enemies who are very clearly definitely evil without needing to relegate an entire species to it.
That said I run campaigns which are pretty far removed from my players wanting to smash dudes without a second thought.

I have no doubt that Eddings wouldn’t want to have anything to do with anything remotely close to Pitchford after that kind of treatment. If he did, that’s a toxic as fuck environment to create.
Probably a good idea not to hire the original voice actor for claptrap… 😅
I was going to say “misgendering is bad” then I realised its a bisexual joke >.>
@missingno@fedia.io I have finished the “main” game content of zap n dash with (I think) all moons, but DAMN this post-game content is HARD. Definitely b-sides/c-sides/farewell vibes
I think it may have been removed because it was a misrepresentation of fact.
In case you still want to understand, here’s a good place to start:
