    I told you this woke virus is real.
    The dumb suckers here don’t know GTA, but the gamers do. The whole game is offensive and violent , that’s the entire point.
    @Jontro @J.R.
    This is like 1000 version of the game

    It’s a game in which you play as mass murdering, torturing psychopaths. And they need to censor it because trans stuff is the part that is offensive? Hmmm.

    Yeah
    That makes sense so people playing that game for the 1000x time can mass murder non trans people

    Sorry where is censorship occuring?

    If someone decides one day that they are done offending a group of people, is that censorship or just a change they decided to make?

    Sorry the non gamers are obvious

    It’s like you suddenly banned one of the ghosts on Pac-Man cause it offended ghosts of a certain shade

    @Reeko

    it’s a video game , the most violent video game
    You should be able to fight anyone on the street

    Actually, the whole point is to be a mockery of american culture as a whole, especially its love of violence, religion, celebrity worship, and rampant capitalism.

    Only non contributing members don’t understand video games and creativity

    Nobody cares that you play paper football
    The ones where you kick field goals with your finger

    I guess it could be described as self censorship, though clearly they are reacting to feedback which of course is their right.

    What I find strange here is that a game that is so over the top in the psychopathy of its protagonists and is satirizing all sorts of people should be called out for being offensive in this one particular way. I think a better way to address this would be to add a trans character that the player can actually empathize with, rather than erase from the game the very existence of trans folks.

    @Xerobull

    non contributing members are NPCs
    So why are NPCs wanting their own to be banned ??

    I want to the ancient d&d to know this

    NPCs are like Non Contributing Members
    Players usually just use them to find the next goal or they can just run them over like in any GTA game

    they are NOT players
    Players are Contributing Members
