Why are video game companies playing into this shit? Is it just to maximize their profit at any cost? Also when will it finally stop, what if I want to be a pansexual gender fluid dolphin that has a self imposed disability?

I'm sticking with Sims 3. Open neighborhood is still the best thing ever.

>game about character creation and managing people having more options
What is bad about this again?
Ian Miller
What said.
Who cares? If you don't want to use those options, then don't and move on with your life.

Keep bringing it up, friend. Don't let the vocal minority shout you down.

Question is why do you care exactly? It's not like the game's going to force you to watch your avatar get sodomized by a gay guy or anything.
Cooper Reed
I care because pandering is never a sign of quality

It would be nice if this was done (and perceived) as just a quirky feature of the game rather than WOW SO PROGRESSIVE WHY DON'T YOU OTHER SHITLORDS FOLLOW SUIT LBGTBQUODUOQWGEDUIQWG3ROZ PRIDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Honestly, the sooner that people think of this shit as just "haha that's interesting and kind of funny" rather than making a huge fucking deal about it because they have to make gender politics infect everything, the better off everybody will be.

That's good

That's bad

It's a neat thing, even if you're not interested in combating gender norms (I might just want better fitting jeans or something).
The things I worry about is how randomised it is for other sims (will 50% of my sims start wearing dresses and flower hats?). I also hope it doesn't make choosing clothes that much more tedious, since there's already quite a large selection

Cool.
But it's still EA, I'll pass.

I guess having more choices is nice and all but the game itself is still shit.

you're no better than other thread
also, people still play The Sims?
Jacob Powell
This is what I am worried about
Landon Peterson
Hopefully they'd add it as an option you can toggle off.
Kevin Roberts
This was my first thought. At last my degenerate Sim households can be even more degenerate with traps and tomboys.
Dominic Phillips
Exactly this. I'll probably just pirate it again, make some cute boys and then uninstall again.
Christopher Ramirez
Does EA have a secret potasium benzoate refinery? Would that be considered bad?
Brody Cox
instead of doing their jobs creating better games they waste every minute of it on this shit. this is h&m levels of waste of time money and energy while the game is still a pale shade of 3 at best
Asher Hernandez
That's it, I'm a #CruzMissile now.
Ian Wright
But this makes the game better.

Basically yes, put yourself in the shoes of a salesman.
Imagine if there were no nationalities
no race
no sex
no different cultures
there was simply one thing: consumers
when everyone's a special snowflake, nobody is.
David Sanchez
it adds nothing and expects you to praise them for it.
Liam Long
Technically letting us get more choices for ponytails for males and letting girls go full tomboy is nice
Or should we look at Skyrim and the sheer amount of "female armor only" mods
Xavier Miller

The most surprising thing about that picture is that Maxis is still a thing. I thought EA dissolved them years ago.

Nice try

That's nonsense. This very specifically catters to millenial Twitter twats who join any and every just cause to get their quixotic fix. It just so happens that Twitter is a wonderful place to advertise nowadays.
I blame it on too much welfare and the internet as a means for radicalisation and circlejerking.
Austin Cooper
still rather have more content

It's only one user in the thread that hates this, everyone else is fine with it.

This company does not exist anymore, just like blizzard doesn't since activision bought them. These names mean nothing at this point.

Oh look, its another Sup Forums gets triggered episode.
Jfc this is not your personal blog. "Game adds more features." Shit, plenty of games have had a gender slider that let you create all kinds of combinations.

They aren't a thing. Original Maxis is no more and Will Wright doesn't make games anymore.

Nice try
Carter Young
Don't really care since I got sim 3 and shit man the mods make it so I won't ever pick up sims 4
but this sounds terrible for townies though.
Ryder Collins
Can't people try to make something funny without filling it with shitty Sup Forums memes?
