I don't think this is "much needed". In fact, I'd argue that this is firmly in the realm of "random bullshit".
We complain about they/thems in games. We complain about worlds that don't react to the player. We complain about shitty worldbuilding where NPCs react to the player in a shitty blank slate, regardless of whether the player has a male or female PC.
Crimson Desert sidesteps all that bullshit by giving you a well defined player character with a backstory, beliefs, future plans, and goals.
Why the fuck, other than for gooner brained "hurr durr if I'm going to look at a charcter for 100 hours I'll want to stare at ass and tits" bullshit would you willingly go back to the blank slate bullshit? Why BECOME the they/them character, if it's not forced upon you?
Yes, I know this is a single player game, and fuck it, do whatever you want in those because it's your game, your fun, but calling it "much needed" is nonsense, and it's nonsense I'd place on the level of those "much needed" shirtless Leon mods for the last resident evil game.
Then again, pirat_nation shilled a fetish game at one point, so he's probably slowly outing himself.
I'm pretty sure they were outed as an indian that just reposts stuff they found. That may have been some other account though.
Idk, he just pretty much posted a troonslop "retro game" with the "cone moobs", and that is where I know him from. Game was called "misha" iirc.
Its engagement farming
I haven't played the game, but according to a comment below, the game already has the option of playing with a female character. If so, then I see nothing wrong with having the option of drastically improving her appearance so that she actually looks feminine, instead of the default androgynous manjaw washboard we would have otherwise.
If it were a game where the only option was to play with a male character, then I would have agreed with you.
Its not an option to choose an MC, but rather a party member you pick up later in the game who you can choose to actively control. You can also pick up an Orc-looking guy who's a survivor of your tribe that gets obliterated by bad guys in the first five minutes if the game.
The main character remains the protagonist, Kliff, who's a Evil White Male of a vaguely highlands Scottish/Pict persuasion.
