This is set in a medieval world, people address us in such terms. Example 'Lord/Lady' there is not a neutral term for this. 'Master/Mistress' there is not a neutral. 'Lad/Lass' there is not a neutral term. 'Sir/Madam' there is not a neutral, not one that is used in a time like this. All of this would have to be removed/rewritten.
I do agree with you on this point that it would be rough. However, you seem to have a misconception, I never suggested code for English but rather to search where the variable used to determine which [gender] response they should play, or even code to be used other than as a helping tool if it would be needed for for example French, which is a more gendered language than English to make the task more manageable (and to add, I do actually after some thinking believe that some languages would be way more annoying to fix than English and yes, I can't plausible see it being done in 1-2 days even with a strong team), and I don't know if you think I thought one person would work on this or if they would set up a team of people to do this as I agree that one person alone could hardly do it in one day. Those parts would be caught by the [gender] (term used as idk what the actual variable is called) and yes, it will require some rewriting. This is also why I said this is a very code dependent task as depending on the code this might be easier or harder to perform, and knowing this game's code it is likely the later, which means that yes, this might very well not be worth it at this point in time.
