TL;DW - People who actually play games do not want to play as themselves - they want to play as at least, an idealised version of themselves - strong, tall and attractive. People see video games as a form of escapism from real life. Games that incorporate DEI have predominately been financial failures because people do not want to play as themselves. Game avatars via the Proteus Effect can change the self-esteem of the player and playing as yourself or as a non-idealised avatar can have negative effects on the player. Which is why people don't play as themselves.
Did I say that people do not want to play as themselves?
That's not the argument. They want you to play as them. They want to be the 'cool kids' for a change and are now trying to limit your choices and force you to constantly deal with undesirable character types. That's why there is no compromise to be had with them. Outright dismissal is the only necessary response.
Character creation within the new Dragon Age is a perfect microcosm for what leftists want for the whole industry. They want you to “choose” only from a narrow range of androgynous tranny freaks, cunty dyke girl bosses, and effete soy-glazed men.
If we were given these options alongside conventionally attractive feminine women and masculine male characters, 95% of players would “choose wrong”. Then the devs would be forced to question whether or not they can afford to spend precious time and resources on character options almost no one is using.
It mirrors communism, really; it doesn’t work if alternatives exists anywhere else. The “muh representation” argument is really just a crypto communist argument with the end goal of enforcing degenerate freak leftist aesthetics. If the boob slider only goes up to “small A cup”, then your character creator isn’t inclusive.
Recall that Larian expressed disappointment that so many players opted for straight white dude characters, but the game still gave you that option. That’s why BG3 was massively successful while people mostly hate Veilguard.
I'm only summarising the findings from the video. I think it's common knowledge that they want to push their beliefs, ideologies and desires on other people, including how the player should look like or be nudged to choose in a video game.
