Topic | Polygon gives Cyberpunk 2077 a negative review. |

And I think representation 100% matters and I think trans people should be represented more because they're obviously a lot of trans gamers but In my 40-plus hours in Night City, I never met a single character of any significance whom the game made clear was trans, and one of the only queer-coded characters I encountered was an extremely unsavory cybernetic surgeon who does extremely unsavory things. I did spot a trans flag on one characters vehicle, though that hardly counts as positive trans representation and doesnt even necessarily mean the character is trans. It felt more like a way for Cyberpunk 2077s creators to say they had included positive trans representation without actually putting thought into it or making trans people a visible part of the makeup of Night City. I think this is stupid. I think it's better to have trans characters and not make them being trans the focal point of their character. Recently, Queen's Gambit had a trans actress playing a character without mentioning once that the character (or really the actress) is trans and I think that in and of itself is positive representation. --- ...
