Lispy and insufferable in my (regrettable) experience.
Ah, the fagccent that no human on earth uses unless they're indoctrinated cannon fodder.
I've also noticed their only personality trait is being gay.
It's like being a vegan, crossfitter, or a mac user.
There are two valid reasons to use "they" - indeterminate singular, and plural. An alien or machine can be a person without possessing masculine or feminine characteristics, and "they" would be more polite than the dehumanising "it." A person could also be referred to in the plural either because they are literally a composite being, or because they are acting in an official capacity as a representative of a collective (the royal "we").
Being a fucking idiot who rejects the truth of their sex is not a valid reason, but that's who this decision was made for.
The singular they has been used since the 14th century to refer to an anonymous or hypothetical individual who could be of either sex. You need to get over it already.
I assume he meant conversations from other people about the player character. But like another comment said how would they even know what your "pronouns" are? And why would someone's "pronouns" be distinct from their voice, in a fantasy setting where trannies can play male or female? I don't buy for a second that trannies are playing games as the kind of mixed bag freak show they play in real life.
