    I think the joke is that Fallout New Vegas has the soul of the original fallout games, despite looking very similar to Fallout 3 and being made in the Creation Engine like the Bethesda Era Fallout games?

    Also, FNV is deeply iconic to the trans community.

        It has several transgender characters that are properly fleshed out and not just tokens that are put in the game in order to fulfill some specific criteria. And they are presented as “just another npc with lots of interaction”, and you need to talk quite a bit with them to notice they are trans.

        It is often considered to be the game with the best transgender representation among all mainstream games out there.

            There’s only one completely insignificant character that fans have head-cannoned as trans.

            Our mascot is an Ikea shark; FNV is trans because we are XD random and do what we want.

          I thought the term transsexual had been ditched completely in favour of transgender. But the upvotes on your comment are making me unsure 🤔

            I’d say it’s largely deprecated

            But yeah, edited my comment. It’s a fucked up word and in this case it was juat a translation error in my head.

            I kinda wish it hadn’t changed, tbh, since transsexual is how I think about myself.

            There’s absolutely nothing wrong with my gender. I can be androgynous in any body. What I need medically changed is my sex.
