Edit: I spelled it mapfia - considering the ideology of these folks, I gotta admit that Freudian slip never entered my mind until now.

For those of you who still care about video games, Guilty Gear Strive is a fighting game that got retooled and rebooted and dumbed down for normies. It's a highly polarizing game, with veterans going back to playing Xrd and/or +AC and normies playing Strive for the "story".

Recently, a new DLC returning character was announced. His name is Testament - his old design was that of an ultra goth looking dude - sorta feminine, but you could still tell it was a man:

His new design is ultra androgynous, in fact rather sickenly so: https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/guilty-gear/images/3/38/Testament_Strive.png/revision/latest/top-crop/width/360/height/450?cb=20220320015231

Whatever, right. Japanese games and gay looking character designs are nothing new, only problem is... the new story text, instead of just referring to this character as a him, because that's what he clearly is, is starting to use "they/them" shit. Soyfaces everywhere by the woke fucks about muh nonbinary transgender shit.

JP seiyuu is a veteran female VA, Yu Kobayashi who has voiced both male and female characters.

It was 100% clear this was a virtue signal from the woketards they picked up with Strive.

I personally just play King of Fighters, which has jiggly titties and prettyboys anyway, so it's no heat off my back, but I have to feel sorry for GG players who thought they'd be free of this shit.
