I think Im missing the issue here. Wasn't the same argument used for adding female characters to games and transgender characters later on?

Kinda thought that's the goal, for everyone to be represented if possible. That said, I'm looking forward to game being focused on Ciri

They for sure didnt complain when you only could play a man in the first 3 games.

I guess so. Not sure if the poster is famous for being one-sided like that. Could be hipocrisy, could be mockery of similar posts going the other way as well. But if not, if they honestly sticked to "provide all options where possible", I wouldn't mind them stepping up for themselves as well.

People are just getting their panties in a bunch because culture war.

It's Poe's law.
