Saints Row's Character Creator Needs To Be Backed Up By A Transgender World
Few things in gaming have annoyed me more than Cyberpunk 2077's character creator. It puffed its chest ahead of launch and confidently strutted through column inches, hailing itself as groundbreaking and progressive, highlighting that it was a transgender character creator where, no matter what the rest of your body looked like, you could slap a big ol' dick on there and feel seen. This was hand in hand with marketing that reduced trans women down to sexualised, objectified bulges and, desperate not to lose its edgy status and be labelled progressive, constantly mocked its own creation with jokes about not pre-ordering FIFA 78 unless it comes with customisable vaginas. Then the character creator came out and it was just a bit naff.
