I might have believed the post if not for this line. I know [Current Year] is forever getting even more [Current] but I don't think Bethesda would risk invalidating genderspecials by even having a villain ignore their pronouns. Even evil villains have to be non-threatening when it comes to bigotry.
I could see it if it was a bolder game by bolder devs, but Bethesda games are not games that make statements. They're inoffensive, increasingly dumbed down cash cows.
(I also think I would have heard about this elsewhere by now)
Could have meant that they just use pronouns at all, unlike every other NPC. Maybe meant to be like a "Psycho Mantis" moment for the gender-retarded generation (otherwise why bother having muh pronouns if they serve no purpose in the game).
You're right. There I go thinking like a sane person again.
I suppose so. It still doesn't quite ring true to me but it is slightly more believable that way. I still don't see Bethesda making statements but I suppose they could have been infiltrated by writers and artists who would.
Yeah, I mean it's 4chan so huge grain of salt, but the fact that almost all of this is plausible is just ... sad.
I would be very surprised if they weren't.
Why would you assume that the only weirdos are writers and artists? There's a reason why the programming socks meme exists.
I woke up today not knowing about this. From this moment forth my world is a little bit darker.
