    I can see why game developers stay out of it though. Regardless of what their personal opinions on matter may be is it really worth dealing with a bunch of angry incels, especially if it’s a big studio they don’t want that kind of nonsense so they don’t do it.

      The funny part is the a/b is them actually explicitly jumping straight into it

      Staying out of it would be to have ignored the problem ENTIRELY and kept using the standard method that had been used for decades in gaming and centuries in writing.

      Doing nothing and ignoring a problem is taking no stance beyond saying you won’t participate.

      Changing in anyway is taking a stance. That’s how that works lol

      Yeah if it’s just some job where you turn the handle to put out Derivative Manshoot with Nominal Twist 2 + monetization then I can understand not feeling like putting any of your soul into it because wtf is your game even saying? Like from an artistic perspective.

      Oh wait, scrolling up, I guess this is more about RPGs. Which idk, I feel like you can get away with anything in a RPG character creator.
