Genderlock reminder to SE

[Sigma-Astra]

If you want to misunderstand a term people are already using, be my guest. Saying "genderlocked" is a lot simpler than typing out "I can't play this race under this gender because it wasn't made" every time. That's the reason people came up with it in the first place. It boils down to semantics.

It boils down towards people being lazy and making up a word to describe something that they don't want to type out and now, years down the line, people are misconstruing that "Genderlock" can be applied towards things not even made in the first place so they can have an excuse to call game developers sexist.

You're misinterpreting it. That isn't what people mean when they say it, but if it makes you feel clever to point that out, good for you I guess?

No, I'm not. You're being passive aggressive towards other people for not adhering to your own definition of a word that gets so freely thrown around these days while insinuating you know more about the word than they do. If it's not what you mean, then speak more clearly and stop relying on shortcuts to suit your argument, otherwise, people are going to find those holes.

No one is arguing that male Viera and female Hrothgar are already in the game and just waiting to be unlocked. There is nothing to indicate that.

You tell that one to the OP.
