It's not surprising to me really given that gamers have thrown fits over past games using types instead of 'female' or 'male' but I guess I just can't get over how fucking stupid it is to care so much that you download a mod that reverts the text in a character creation menu. The slightest change in language in order to be more welcoming to other players is treated as the downfall of society by these people.

(For context, this is on nexusmods)

It wouldn't surprise me to see this "mod" get nuked fairly soon and then a 2 day media circus led by the rat lord himself about censorship in media or some bullshit.

We've already been through that news cycle. Nexusmods caved and unbanned the mod.
