    This trailer is really bringing out the bigots, especially in the YouTube comments. It sucks that the gaming community, literally based on having fun, can be so toxic

      I played the first two games, and I watched the trailer.

      What are the bigots whining about?

      -oh look, there’s one down below in the comments. I’ll ask them.

      Edit: I asked 'em, but I received no answers. One called me a slur, but I’m not sure what else I was expecting.

        It’s a woman main character in the trailer. Some loud, annoying gamers have a problem with that. Also that she isn’t super conventionally sexy, and is a representation of an average woman. And some people are calling her trans and not in a pro LGBT way.

        Someone here made a comment about sweet baby inc, which is a company that works with game studios to help encourage diversity, which is apparently the end of the world for the people who call everything new “woke” unironically

            Yeah the bigots didn’t ask me why I called them bigots. But I asked you. If they did ask, I’d tell them it’s because of how they make fun of women and trans people for existing. But you didn’t really care about that, you just wanted to start something. Not worth my time tho, goodbye.

              Ah yeah, I thought we’re just calling names. You set the precedent. I didn’t see any of that shit you just mentioned.
