Players don't like the surgery scars and pronoun stuff because it makes the wish-fulfillment nature of the game too transparent.

Am I r-slurred that this wasn't ever true for me? I never see myself in characters I play. Maybe it's cause the games I started with you always generated an entire party (think might & magic, wizardry, ...)?
I never saw myself as a character either, but a lot of people do. I always experienced games as an outside observer who influences the action and dialog.
Its a game the devs have no faith in so they're adding nonbinary and other current year gender bullshit so they can blame toxic consumers when it inevitably fails
