Forgive me if it's old news, but I hadn't seen this before.

Check out the segment starting at 19:22. Druckman just says it out loud. There was a "pitch" (by team members who were explicitly tasked with injecting diversity) to make a character trans. I don't recall seeing this so directly stated anywhere else. Really confirms what we've long suspected.
Imagine a bunch of tranny and queer devs doing a little power point presentation for their boss explaining why a character in their video game should be trans. Then imagine the boss actually doing it. The state of modern western writing.
Strangely, the sequel to Returnal doesn't feature a hatchet-faced middle-aged boss grandma...
Of course, Sony is pulling back from PC releases right when I might actually be interested in one of their games.
