Ah yes... lgbt chars is the recipe to become top seller and have top users again. No need to maybe make a new game with better mechanics, graphics, story, characters or fix issues.

Yep.. do something that literally only 0.00005% of people care about. These companies are retarded. They pander to a tiny fraction of the population and out of that tiny fraction.. only an even tinier fraction plays games. Like wtf?

as much as I'd like to agree with you... it seems like the proportion of people who care about this among the people who are into this game is not nearly that low. check out the twitter replies to see what I mean.

How many of those people actually spend money about the topic they pander for? Twitter replies are meaningless and paint an inaccurate demographics picture.

right, but one could just as well ask: how many of the people who are angry about this, are mostly attracted to the outrage and culture war aspects.

my belief is that a lot of these people are casuals, if they care about the game at all. they're "tourists". they're not going to spend money on this game.

keep in mind that I'm not saying that they shouldn't be upset about this. I'm also not saying that everyone who cares about this is like that. nor that most of the game's fans are not bothered by this (I'm sure they are). but certainly these people exist.

Didnt they go out of their way to pander to furries a while back with some kind of furry themed expansion pack?
