Saw another performative blowhard crashing out at a "they/them" pronoun option. This is obviously performative ultra-right-wing shit, but what makes me blink is how it's the ONE FREE THING.
Everything in games costs money except literally that one pronoun option.
Why?
Because you can't cast she/he in writing. You need to use they in all your writing already. Look:
Give him his money, it's his.
Give her her money, it's hers.
You HAVE to write it
Give them their money, it's theirs.
