Holy shit, the game developers did not know their market, at all. Yes there are a lot of gamers that could stand to diversify their thinking but you don’t spend $400 million dollars and just hope the players will suddenly become tolerant.
This aint a diversity thing, this is a someone in character design needs to be shot type of thing. They all look simultaneous bland, garish, over designed, and under designed. This is a fuckup that ruins folks career’s.
Tolerance is not quite the right word for this. These kinds of games are power fantasies and you need the player to want to be the character, for that they can’t just be different in every way at the same time because every difference increases the chances that some players say “I wouldn’t want to be that character” and also the chances that other players will say “I know how to bully the players choosing that character”.

I was really only paying attention to the aesthetics of whatever the hell they’re wearing.
Grandma with a prosthesis is the only one that looks alright.

Idk what it has to do with being tolerant. They just went full woke and were surprised it doesn’t make the game good.

Tolerant of what? These character models are just ugly.
My eyes are having a hard time tolerating those shoulder pads
