Obligitory Pronouns Request

[Coletergeist]

Well I'm sorry you find it, "Disgusting." Perhaps I could have just, "Disagreed.", however people wanting their ideals hamfisted into a video game, deserve a hamfisted response.

It's not hard to use different more kinder and reasonable words; they were intentionally used.

There's a difference between having an opposing opinion and referring to someone as mentally ill/blatantly insulting them.

Learn to tell the difference.

How about next time don't throw around obviously inflammatory insults while you're expressing that opinion.

I could, you're right. Next time, I promise, that I will present myself in a more mature manor, thank you. <3

I'd like to have more content rather than small changes like this, but to each their own.. kinda. Some are too loud.

I wont lie to everyone, but I am feeling very petty.

I know it's a bug, but I found this amusing in a morbid sort of way. I am surprised no one put tags in here "how about no." "It doesn't matter lol xd. "It is just one line of text lol get over it."

As a close friend says feelsbadman.

Oh how we in the west have grown wicked and decadent.

I too like to play pretend, and demand others support my unhinged ideals for the sake of feeling included.

You're a brave man for posting something like this on the OF of all places. You have my respect.

so it's been a hot minute since the last time i saw an active request for pronoun choices in game, either just differing from the sex of the character model, or entirely new pronouns that aren't currently included in the game. So this is my request for SqEnix to look at the option of adding pronoun choices in the game.

Now, before people go off about how much work this would be, and how unreasonable, and how little it's needed, I *know* that it is a lot of work, 10+ years of dialogue, and that the people who need this are a minority, but I still think it would be worth it.

Edit: if you're just going to come and say it's not worth it, please don't comment. If you're going to disparage the queer community, leave.

My only comment for this..

Is that this is a fantasy world, not the real world.
Keep these issues where they belong not in a video game.

Disappointed at the casual transphobia in some of the replies but I guess I shouldn't be surprised at this point.

I feel like the most ironic thing about people getting bent out of shape over someone asking about pronouns for fear of bringing the subject into the game is that the existence of non-binary people has already been touched upon in it. The fae in Norvrandt go by they/them in the English localization and dragons are explicitly stated to not go by the concepts of male and female in the way that mortals do.

I see nothing wrong with adding a pronoun feature to characters. It's 2022, and to have them on display for people to see would make it easier to not offend anybody. Sure its a lot of text to go through, but it makes sense. The problem will only get worse with the games age. It literally hurts no one, but the developers who have to make the change. It's a harmless request that can be either accepted, or denied by the devs. People who oppose it are just overreacting.
