The issue with these lines is that they violate the "show, don't tell" principle of writing. We have characters going out of their way to describe themselves, or others in this case, in overselling ways that don't come across as natural and are nakedly there to serve as a shortcut for proper characterization. Or they're trying to make these characters more impressive with minimal effort. The fixes needed aren't something that can be done with a few line replacements. We're talking about a complete overhaul about what's actually written and how the characters present themselves.
Here is an aspect of her character you will not be able to derive through standard game play, or we wish for you to know about her up front.
Way to prove my point. They couldn't put in the effort to SHOW me why Naeva is so awesome by having her do something awesome, so they just have her simp TELL me she is.
You clearly don't understand when to tell and NOT show.
For reference Here is a scene that would have made for a humorous conversation between two men reminisced on over drinks. That is where "Tell don't show" becomes useful, as it is a scene that should have never been filmed.
At this point, do you even understand what the supposed fake outrage of this topic was even meant to be?
Why you up voted it? Who you are as a person?
Why you continue to reply?
Again, here is the title that this thread is based on:
Try not to cringe: Strong independent interracial lesbian astronauts who need no man in Starfield
To which you replied that you are offended by dialog existing in an RPG, and continue slide down that path defending that as your sole objection.
What the fuck is even going on here! Are you O.D'ing on crazy pills While sniffing powdered estrogen capsules!?!

I'd like to see that 'book'.
This is a game. Not a movie. Not a book.
