>>51440768You meet more gay couples than straight couples. There's a trans toddler on the first island. Your rival is nonbinary. Team rocket are "colonizers" and "oppressors" that regularly refer to the islanders as tribals and savages. Some of the shops are employee owned co-opts.
The game is accidentally based, in spite of it being written by a bunch of angry leftists though. The main currency is a six sided star. Every LGBT character ends up a negative stereotype. The gay old couple just oggles children all day. The gay deckhand is a slut. Every lesbian couple you encounter are at odd with their partner in some way, or are completely incompetent.
Your they/them rival is an insufferable brat that blames you for all of their problems then dies. The game makes you go on an in-memorium quest for some reason, where people blame you always beating them in temtem battles as the reason why they joined Team Bad Guy. Except their first TemTem was from the evil team, and they had it before you got your first TemTem.
It's unrelated to the twitter appeal reply, but might as well finish my novel. The writing in this game is some of the worst I've ever seen. I've played MTL China games with a better written story. The devs decisions are baffling. From doing long-abandoned game things like locking you to cetain areas until you can defeat things to progress the story (creating potential locked save scenarios where you're too shit to progress, but can't access earlier areas to fix it). To, at one point, taking away all of your items and mons, giving you a gifted team of new shitty mons and making you fight through an area of new mons you haven't seen before to get your old shit back. Oh and sliding ice puzzles. They give you an item to bypass them early, then they take that item away and throw the puzzles at you. It wouldn't have felt as bad if they just never gave you the skates.
