I remember Brent Spiner saying that a lot of autistic kids and parents of autistic kids found that the children related a lot to "Data" specifically because of his inability to process emotions, and so the conversations with data about emotions actually helped the kids to understand feelings.
That doesn't mean you retcon data into being an autist, rather than an android.

If anything, at least in autistic people, that can just create further hostility. Because speaking for myself, the constant goalpost moving and attempts to change data when the changes are both illogical and not actually backed by any data, is part of the reason I get so angry with SJW's.
Same applies to my my fiancé. Because while she hates the culture war and doesnt like the Based-side because she thinks they have a stick up their ass too often (which I cant necessarily disagree with), she hates the SJW's significantly more because she views them as actively evil and malicious people instead of merely annoying.
Yeah, it's a disordering. That's gonna be the real problem there. You want to really piss off autistic people. Move their shit and don't tell them. Then gaslight them about it.
"I literally have the spot for my wrench both marked and outlined! And you were the last person in my work space. So, where is my wrench assmunch?! And I dont want to hear 'you misplaced it', when I know I put it back."
What, is it so hard to believe an autistic woman would not behave like the crazy SJW's that make up most women? First getting together in high school probably helps as well, since she was with me instead of falling in with the crazies.
People who had to take Ritalin back in the day see Data in their lives a lot as well. A few years ago I realized they were taking gifted kids and making them autistic to fit their narrative.
I’m so sick of non binary or trans. Sick of such a tiny group of people getting catered to like this. I seriously doubt many people were asking for this and it’s more likely he just wanted to be trendy
Did they also change the gameplay so now your Non-Binary character Dosen't Starve of attention by obnoxiously demanding monsters use its made-up pronouns and validate its gender identity?
WX-78 wasn't specifically written as a non-binary character originally. The early concept for WX was "Are they a boy trapped in a robot body or are they a robot that thinks they are a boy trapped in a robot body?" and it was left open ended for fun.
However as time went on, a lot of people wrote to us and thanked us for having a character that they could identify with for many different reasons.
These comments came from a lot of different players with a wide range of perspectives. To some players, WX represents not fitting in and not conforming with what other people might expect of them. Not just players that don't conform to traditional gender or social expectations but also players on the spectrum and even some people who said that they feel like they "don't fit in." Regardless of the exact reason, they all appreciated a character that they felt in some way, even if just a little bit, represented an aspect of themselves.
So that's who WX-78 is, the WX that we try to preserve and just some of the reasons people can be protective of that aspect of the character.
But beyond all that, intentionally misgendering somebody fictional or otherwise is a jerk move. So please don't. Thanks.
So they’re saying “non-binary” people are the equivalent to a robot who thinks it’s human? I agree

...But if it either is or if it simply thinks it's a boy then wouldn't referring to it as "he" be the polite thing? This literally makes no sense. The character's defining trait is that it claims to be male. That's as far from "non-binary" as you can possibly get.
Don't Starve is also a game almost a decade past its prime - and it wasn't particularly good in its prime, either. It was never great at crafting, survival, exploration, or combat. The only thing it had going for it was its art style, and frankly, it's hard to look at. It was a game for hipsters, and now its a game for worthless tranny hipsters.
I love that these retards separate people into binary or non-binary, thus making a new binary.
It's a fake identity for boring people who yearn to feel special. Once it goes mainstream, they'll move onto something else. Unfortunately for us, corps, govt, institutions are falling over themselves to accommodate, and the chaos will take years to undo. The herd will have moved on, and we'll be left with forms, laws, 'culture' that looks like we were conquered by some hedonistic demon.
The only people I ever knew that played the game were teen-20 something girls, which is why it wasn't that popular until the coop mode let them do egirl shit.
That's the exact demo for this type of nonsense, so its catering to its fanbase in a way.
The Tim Burton art style has always been big with self-absorbed middle class snowflakes who are too high on their own farts to fit in.
'Non binary' is just a way for attention seekers whose brains aren't pickled enough for them to chop their tits/cock off to scream 'look at MEEEEE I'm kinda trans! I swear! I'm definitely not a boring normal cis person! Give me attention and clout and privilege!'

Damn, your fiancé seems pretty cool. Is she single?
She's a real woman, FutaCumDiet. You wouldn't like her.
What do you mean? He has a real girlfriend ... it's just that her last name ends in '.JPG'.
She will be.

Agreed!!!!
You just turn Spock into a closeted gay autist in the next set of movies.
I'm surprised that they haven't done that yet.
People who had to take Ritalin back in the day see Data in their lives a lot as well. A few years ago I realized they were taking gifted kids and making them autistic to fit their narrative.
There was a whole episode about that kind of thing in ST:TNG where Data helped a kid cope with the death of a family member.
He just started emulating data because he has no emotions. And the kid thought if he had no emotions, it wouldn't hurt.
I remember that one. That's a good one, and it's something a child would probably do.

Among my many thoughts playing this decade old game, none of them were "what pp does the robot wish it had?"
This feels like a pr campaign to push a dead game back into the light.
Don't Suicide
>a game about keeping yourself alive
>"alternative sexuality" people identifying with it

I remember buying it on Steam, trying it for 30 mins and thinking it was the most overrated trash I've ever played.
Yeah, same experience, I liked the art style and aesthetic, but I found it very boring and not interesting to play. Maybe put 1.5 hours into it total.
That art style was always sus. Frankly I'm not surprised the creator is a weirdo.

It's literally zoomer's equivalent to goths and emos

Example: Zoe Quinn
The Robot? Really?
Lmao at his explanation being "we didn't know what nonbinary was when the game came out".
