    …they did? They made the game this way. This game is already out.

    I think it’s kinda funny that you’re surprised they would be inclusive. I’d bet there are quite a few women on the dev team and there are quite a few women who play these games.

      I’m always surprised if a big corporation cares about anything other than making money tbh

        Why do you think that appealing to women and broadening their customer base would not make them money?

        Has everyone forgotten that women play games, too?

          I guess this is the sort of low effort thing they’d do, so you got me there

            I thought y’all were just complaining that it was too much effort to put in this detail?

            Now it’s low effort to be inclusive to women?

              I’m not sure you’re grouping me with with that “ya’ll”, I thought it was effort with no benefit (money) to them so I didn’t understand it.

                It seemed that you thought adding this level of realism wasn’t worth the additional effort, but when I pointed out that there are people who appreciate it, you called it low effort.

                  Low effort is still effort? I didn’t think it was worth the effort, low as it might be

                    Clearly it was worth the effort with how many copies were sold.

                    Aside from that, personally, I think it’s always worth the effort to be inclusive when we can.
