Far-right users of X (formerly Twitter) are singling out individual Activision Blizzard employees for comments made in support of DEI and inclusion at the company.
To be fair, Sweet Baby Inc. censoring shit is a real problem, whereas the “first gamergate” was mad about Baldur’s Gate having transpeople in it when according to the “real gamers”
The game takes place in the Middle Ages and they didn’t have transpeople back then!
Problem
Transpeople have existed since pre-history
Baldur’s Gate does not take place in the middle ages, but rather during modern day in an alternate dimension in a thriving multiverse
If transpeole existing is against the original vision of the game, then explain to me why the Girdle of Masculinity/Femininity and Edwin/Edwina exist. Or did you never actually play Baldur’s Gate and just wanted to be part of an outrage machine?
I thought the first gamergate was about gatekeeping women away from games games journalism. Imagine getting mad at trans people existing in a game where shapeshifting monsters and magic exist.
