Starfields is one of the biggest games of 2023 – but it’s joined other recent games like Baldurs Gate 3 in being boycotted by conservatives because of the way it interacts with gender.

Because rather than have empathy for others and realize how their actions might affect others, they'd rather focus solely on themselves and make everything about them and how they're inconvenienced.

it’d make some amount of sense if they were actually inconvenienced but i’m still not understanding the inconvenience tbh

It goes against their view that everybody is "normal" like them (white, cisgender, etc.)

It makes them have to remember things about people rather than assume based on their appearance.
