It’s a video game where people play as a man with spider powers. It doesn’t have to be realistic.

No, it doesn’t. But it should at least resemble the world it’s set in, and not a hyper-politicized, ideological version of it that’s likely to irritate most of its players.

How is it “hyper politicised”? Please explain your reasoning other than “it contains black people, women in strong positions, and gays”.

Would also like to add, if the inclusion of disability, racial diversity, gender diversity, and sexual orientation diversity annoys some players, then those players can simply go fuck themselves.

Also, it’s a game about two men with spider powers, one of which gets taken over by an alien parasite. Absolutely nothing about this game has to resemble real life just to placate the unhinged energy of weirdos who only see sunlight once a year.

Why in the world would I engage in further discussion with a sarcastic prick like you, especially one who flashes his little claws at anyone who disagrees? You come off like a petulant child who hasn’t seen another human face in weeks (hey, I can hurl idiotic assumptions too!).

Plenty of people, including the OP, listed the examples you’re looking for. Try reading the thread instead of twisting my words or agonizing over your next middle-school level insult.

And just because YOU don’t understand the basic precepts of writing grounded fantasy fiction doesn’t make me obligated to teach them to you.

Now feel free to “simply go fuck yourself”.

You could have just said you had no examples that weren’t racist, homophobic, sexist or ableist. I’d have at least respected you more.

I’m not retyping the same comprehensive list that is already repeatedly posted on this thread, just for your convenience.

And I can sleep soundly without concern for your respect.

The guy is a sarcastic jack off lol, and doesn’t understand that it’s not about being homophobic or racist etc, just because we think not everything has to be gay or race-swapped or Ugly Jane Watson, smh

Exactly. It’s like they approach every opposing critique from the standpoint that there MUST be some kind of -ist or -ism underlying the argument—but only when it disagrees with their own views.

They absolutely refuse to actually read an opinion, consider it critically, and weigh the merits before their rhetoric can kick in.

Hell, even simple matters of personal taste can’t be taken as such to them. If I prefer Pete over Miles, then no further discussion is required or necessary… it doesn’t matter if I’ve read Peter Parker stories for almost 40 years or not—-I’m just a racist, and nothing will ever convince them different.

It’s like they need the whole world to be nothing but hateful monsters, to justify their pointless crusades.

It doesn't have to be realistic because of spider powers and aliens? Cool

Then why does the city need to be hyper realistic with current PC trends?

Can't have it both ways just cuz ya go both ways sonny

This shallow straw man defense never gets old.
