So GTA VI is rumored to have a trans girl as a main character
On the one had, ok I don’t mind. On the other, I have a strong suspicion that shit’s going to hit the fan.
I am concerned specifically about the state of modern gaming as a whole and how it can cripple any potential Lucia has.
There’s no other hand. Trans representation in the media is good. What is this gamer gate take?
I think the worry is that the character will basically fulfill every CHUD stereotype about trans people and be nothing but harmful representation.
like hell chuddie fucks ever cared about trans people or thought of them positively
[CW transphobia] I brought this before but GTA V had a transphobia issue
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
You missed what I said.
The issue is that media in general - and by extension queer media and triple A games - has declined since the mid 2010s to early 2020s. The biggest reason being disjointed story executions, the main concern of the post.
Why do I hold GTA VI to such a high standard? It’s because the GTA franchise is not only one of the greatest game franchises to exist but also one of the greatest PROGRESSIVE game franchises to exist - especially San Andreas - GTA is literally making fun of US society similar to Warhammer 40K. The inclusion of a queer protag is a great addition in my opinion.
This is especially important given this: https://www.thepinknews.com/2023/12/05/gta-6-trailer-gay-lgbtq-representation/#:~:text=In GTA V%2C one of,to sexual encounters with men.
Yeah, that’s valid. I just took it as “they might do it wrong, so maybe they just shouldn’t have done it at all”, my fault.
Nope. I never said they shouldn’t do it. I was voicing my concerns about how the state of media and Triple A gaming today can cripple Lucia’s potential.
… You are so ridiculous.

There’s nothing wrong with rans ppl in media
