Erm, what, Digital Foundry are not covering this game because... they are taking a political stance, for what someone who wasn't even involved in the game or even created it, said?
If that is true then that is pathetic because a game should be judged on its own merits and free of any politics where are 100% not relevant to this game since it seems to be very pro-transgender anyway, offering you the freedom to create a male character with a female voice who is referred to as a witch and vice versa. Even the dialogue is gender-neutral, likely to avoid having to record multiple lines of dialogue with 'he', 'she' and 'they' but still comes across as a bit odd in my opinion. Thankfully, most of the time the game's dialogue is carefully written to avoid this so I have only come across it a couple of times. The first time I heard reference to 'they' in relation to my character though, I actually thought that Professor Fig was perhaps old and confused and just didn't realise my character was a boy! I mean it would sound that way to anyone like myself not brought up or educated in transgender politics.
As for Digital Foundry, well I am glad I am not a paying subscriber but, even so, I think I may have to consider my own personal politics here and restrict my viewing of their videos going forward if they are taking this stance. I don't care who owns them, they should stand up for themselves and cover games regardless of external politics. Their coverage is extremely beneficial to raising awareness of issues with the developers and is one reason many of them get fixed. I fear that their refusal to cover it will mean that the issues this game has, such as stuttering on PC, will not get fixed.
*sigh*
What a sad world, we live in, eh?
