The biggest flaw I found in the survey was that it never actually asked for my sexuality? Me being gay is going to be a pretty important factor when it later asks how I feel about playing avatars with a different sexuality to my own or whether or not i feel represented in games. I basically had...

If memory serves the same wording was used to describe the marriage options in all three Fable games even though there were limitations based on the sexuality of the NPCs. It's twitter, there may simply not have been enough room to fully explain it. Also going into any more detail would have...

Bit tardy but I wanted to point out one thing very quickly. Notice how your theoretical only works when you impose an analogy breaking restriction on it? Excluding the ability to convert to other religions broke your comparison. Skyrim didn't institute only homosexual relationships. It was...

That's a two way street and an entirely silly argument... You argument is based on wanting her to dress like a man. Thus you assign clothing a gender just as much as anyone. If the "outside world" (as opposed to...?) didn't assign clothes a gender then there would never have been an issue to...

hmmm It would be nice if AC2 threw less guards at me while I'm raging at the controls... On the other hand I get more scared when stuff isn't happening than I do when there's a swarm of monsters.

I'm a little torn. The potential for such a system to be abused by the Dollars-over-Quality side of the industry is really high. But then lower price points can level the field a bit between the high-disposable-income-teenage-gamers and the strict-budget-adult-gamers. A boost to the DLC market...
