Imagine a AAA game had the balls to have an openly trans protagonist. That would be pretty funny I think.

They could even pull a Metroid, just have a character casually mention it at the end of the game, get the Gamers to seethe about their betrayal, get a controversy going after the game's hype cycle is over, which is a little evil, which means they would actually do it.

One of your companions in dragon age inquisition is actually trans. You only find out if you talk him a bunch but if your not talking to your companions you're missing huge chunks of the game anyway.

Who is it? I know there's Krem who's a trans man but he's not really a companion.

This might be the best article Hard Drive has ever published.

Idk, kind of phoned in.

All the jokes are references to transfem meme culture but the actual inclusivity is transmasc top scars.
