Legitimate question: doesn't great art resemble reality in many cases? Why wouldn't you want that representation? The game does not condone how the Scars are, and glorifies Abby for renouncing her faction to be a family of sorts with Lev and Yara. It says, "he isn't accepted in that group, and that group is in the wrong, but here is a character that does accept him as Lev and not Lily."

I'm not trans so I'll gladly defer to someone who is trans and played the game to completion saying they didn't approve of it for this reason. But I'd imagine the way this game depicts the transsexual struggle is welcomed because it's faithful to reality while also asking for reality to be better because trans people deserve better.

I mean, I wasn't personally bothered by it either and what you're descriping is undoubtfully the intention of the game. But when I see learn that a significant amount of the transgeneder community dislikes this representation despite wanting representation then that worries me, it should not be that way.
