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.
[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:
like hell chuddie fucks ever cared about trans people or thought of them positively
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
