Gender/Racial Locking in 2019

[Theodric]

OP didn't say anything about discrimination; they asked for are more options while pointing out some existing examples (male characters can already wear thongs as previously mentioned), something that makes everyone happy. Doesn't mean that it'll necessarily happen, but there's no harm in asking, either, unless someone is going to be rude about it (and they weren't in this case; it was other people that needlessly threw a fit.)

You're missing the point, anyway; if someone pays for a service, then their opinion, even if it's perhaps inane to some, is worth voicing when respectful.

I'm referring to the title of the thread and the use of 'current year' to imply that it is somehow wrong of the development team to have taken the stance that they have.

I don't interpret it as 'wrong' so much as 'dated', which is as true as it is ironic when applied to a game that was once praised for not falling into the same, tired, gendered tropes a number of other MMOs fall under. Worse still is when you remember that one of Final Fantasy's most popular games features a particularly beloved scene in which the protagonist crossdresses.

Sexual fanservice is fine, but to make it work in something intended to have a broad appeal, it has to go both ways. I'm saying this as a hella gay woman that's super excited for glamazon bunny girls.
