BL 3 was already horrible enough for me. The entire cast of the the game that does anything of importance are a bunch of girlbosses. The male characters are either black, gay, or both. New characters that are introduced are the worst stereotypes of SJW writing.
I slogged through the game dreading the cutscenes and dialogue hoping that the game mechanics and the fact I was playing co-op to carry my enjoyment.
The worst part is I knew exactly how it was going to be before starting. One of the characters having they/them pronouns and IRL people getting banned for "mis-gendering" a videogame character was the biggest red flag in the history of video games.
I bought the presequel in a massive sale. Suffice to say, I could not finish it. It was that bad. So I couldn't bother with borderlands 3 nor am I even remotely interested in this new one.
Same. It was the pebble that got me started back on the high seas, after having wasted money again.
Now they've increased the prices, and lowered the quality of games in general. Since I don't have access to my own money printer, its a pirates life for me. If I can even be bothered.
I liked borderlands 2 for the most part, albeit it was very repetitive. But I will be hon st, the presequel is not even worth pirating it, borderlands 3 doesn't even feel like one should wast time search for one. Tiny Tina is even worse.
Lately, games have been a lot of misses than hits.
Cyberpunk 2077 had the CD projekt name riding on it, so that helped the sales, but the amount of bugs and unfinished content was absurd. I am still pissed off with the bug where you can't use stairs or ramps without having a small chance of dying for nothing. Instant death as soon as you step on a ramp or stair.

I can't count how many times I've heard someone say, "If you can't respect the pronouns/gender of a fictional character you'll never respect them in real life."

To be honest, after BL2 (started getting bored 75% in) and the presequel (quit at about 20% in), the only thing I remember fondly from BL is claptrap.
He was annoying, cheesy, funny, and memorable. I look back on him fondly. A bit like that paperclip from MS Office. I forget his name.

It's true, I won't...
Makes perfect sense. Fiction is the core of their worldview, so obviously they would prioritize fiction over reality.
Those of us who know the difference between fiction and reality are the true oppressed group.
Well...yeah
