honestly i think the issue is the culture of those from california which is where the company is based at.

I did not, but thanks for outing yourself as transphobic. You hit all the same marks. :3
Yes, people of a status can still hate that same status or be against it, as theyâve proven themselves to be. Should probably seek higher education.
You donât even know the word for it, and no. Just because I donât prescribe to your heteronormative views doesnât mean I am anything of the sort.
âŚTheyâre literally trans.
WHATâŚ
You are delusional.
I would not be surprised if that proved to be the case. California is a⌠unique⌠state.

No itâs not because itâs different. You have no idea what it is like to have your gender challenged.
You do not understand the struggle of reading a thread about how you are stupid because your in constant agony.
If you can the understand that you donât like being identified as body 1 think about what itâs like to be identified as male when you do not present so.
You have never had your masculinity challenged the way a trans man has to prove their masculinity.
Also trans people are not a monolith I can think your opinion is stupid and not represent the entire inclusivity of the trans community
they basically are the complete oposite of most of the united states.

No, itâs not ironic. FFXIV has a very large LGBTQ community, but it doesnât exclusively pander to them, and they still put out amazing content.
This is completely opposite of WoWâs situation, where the content quality only keeps dropping year after year and instead of focusing on the game- which is what weâre all here for, they pull crap like this.
FFXIVâs devs are amazing and the content they put out is second to none within the context of MMORPGs, and largely singleplayer games as well.
Blizzard on the other hand⌠I mean we still hope to see a turnaround, but at this point its fairly hopeless.

LMAO thatâs your evidence? Ok bud. Youâre a very confused individual if you think popular vote equates to gender identity politics. My grandma votes democrat and also thinks your movement is absurd, soâŚ

Youâre literally doing this by removing my choice.
Iâm sorry you go through that, but removing my choice doesnât help you.
You can choose a female body type.
Weâre in Warcraft, nobody is challenging your choice.
And I can think of your opinion as stupid and not be a bigot.

Definitely a big true about FF14. It has a way larger left leaning / inclusivity focused community, and yet the devs are way edgier, especially with jokes, than blizzard and do not pander. The game is hyper sexualized (opposite of what blizz is doing to wow) and the players love it.

Itâs very ironic, they do a lot of the same things as WoW and even take it to different levels in certain cases. Same thing for Guild Wars.
Either way, WoW still has, and always has had more subs than FFXIV or the other MMORPGs. shrug
Because itâs a male body, why not just call it a male body?

Seriously. Really, seriously. Forget about the context of this thread for a minute. Iâm not trying to argue with you at all. Sincerely- if you believe almost any of what you have posted here, you need to get out of your comfort bubble. If a person is being reasonable, even if they vehemently disagree, they can still at least somewhat understand their opponents point of view, Without at least that much empathy, weâd all be doomed. You sound like someone who has been flat out brainwashed tbh. Getting out would only help you.

Thatâs the second time someone in this thread with an art history degree told me to get a higher education.

Pretty sure I do, but itâs up to me to choose how to react. I do not get upset when they do it intentionally. Call me whatever pronouns you want, want to use my birth name instead? Okay thatâs fine too. I am confident in who I am and do not need the approval of anyone to be who I am.
I am trying to find a diplomatic response to this, will update later.
Then you deal with it and move on. It happens. Even after 9 years it still happens to me. Some have known me for years before my transition. No part of my life is dead. Those bonds we have are still there. My father has called me âbudâ since I was 9 no way would I ever demand he stopped.
I am 5â4" now and in school I was around 5â1" to 5"3" with long hair and a slender build even before I transitioned. When I ran for class president the other person was all âItâs more or the F*******â so that says it all. And you know what? I moved on and got over it. I now have a successful career.
And as part of that community I dislike this change immensely as I find it pandering to the lowest common denominator.

In my experience, the FFXIV communities arenât the Californian natsoc (other word isnât allowed here apparently lol) variety so everyone just likes them more.
