Hey guys. New to the site. So Jeremy did a video awhile back saying CDPR had gone woke for making it so you don’t select a gender in Cyberpunk 2077 but a body type. Now I want to make it clear that the purpose of this post is not to give Jeremy a hard time, but I believe he is mistaken. Jeremy if you read this, I’d be very interested to hear your thoughts.
So I understand the concern here. At first glance, this seems to be CDPR bowing to the outrage mob. I believe however that CDPR will stick to its guns and make the game they want to make, regardless of who they offend. I know they are open to feedback, and there’s no reason they wouldn’t apply feedback even from the outrage mob if they thought it made sense for the game.
In the Cyberpunk universe, body modification is commonplace. This would not just mean cybernetic implants, but also would mean changing of genders or something in between.
Now I myself believe that if you think you are something other than what your DNA says you are, you have mental issues and need help. Nevertheless, I think it makes sense for the game. I believe this game is still going to royally piss off plenty of SJWs. I’m interested to hear what you guys think.
If it really bothers people that much that you won’t be able to select a gender, I’m sure there will be a mod for it within the first week. Personally I don’t really care, but I can see how some would see it as a domino effect.
I definitely agree with your last point though. This game will probably be “problematic” for a lot of SJWs, and it’s gonna be glorious
I think it started when they fired their GoG Community Manager for a joke tweet SJWs really didn’t enjoy, they’ve been on a decline since then.
Who knows? Maybe this will be their last great game?
I actually like the fact they’re playing up the fantasy elements of this game. I don’t think this one change is significant enough and I would need to see more evidence than what I’ve seen so far to believe CDPR has gone woke. Is there any other reasons to think they have lost it? For myself, if I’m able to make a character with 3 dicks in the front and 6 tits in the back, then that’s what I’m going to play and it will be hilarious.
It boggles my mind that game companies, especially CDPR would pander to a group like SJW’s that won’t play their game lol. These people aren’t avid gamers. They don’t have time to play games because their too busy being offended about something every damn second.
