Not sure if I’ll get the game eventually but one thing I’ll never understand is if you are a man who believes he is a woman or vice versa why not just play as the sex you believe you are? Granted it was idiotic from the start to listen to a tiny fraction of the population and give them this much influence.

Because fantasy and sci-fi by their nature nullifies the whole idea of trans since you could use magic/medical technology to switch genders or even races.
Since that takes away their special pronouns and status, they naturally hate it whether they show it openly or discreetly (by proclaiming in articles how this thing is 'ist' and caused death in the real world)
True. Just doesn’t make sense. Like you said these are worlds where you can literally be what you want!
That's because they don't have the fiction/reality divide in their heads like most of us here do. I can watch messed up shit such as a horror game/film but I know that's fictional so should not let it affect my behaviour or my identity.
They can't seperate the two so they take the fiction (that they are the other gender) and apply that to reality. Vice versa they believe fiction should represent reality as they must be influenced by each other in their heads.
