They finally give you something that controls how people refer to you in their games, and dipshits wanna remove it? This is as close as you're going to get to having characters refer to you as a choice you've taken other than Codsworth and Vasco having like 1000 generic names recorded to use.

Does it even affect dialogue? The PC is hardly ever referred to with pronouns, actually I can't remember a single line.

I believe it changes enemy barks like "He/She/They shot him!" and maybe a few dialogue lines?

Heh, I like how the enemies are considerate enough to figure out and use the correct pronouns mid-battle

Hey, you! What are your pronouns? ... Thanks, now eat lead!

I might be a paid killer, but I'll be damned if I'll misgender someone. Professionals have standards.
