Do they still have you choose between male or female?

I know Pokemon asks "what do you look like" now instead of "are you a boy or a girl"

Body Type A or B is what Demon's Souls remake did, and it's what Elden Ring is about to do

I've noticed a few games go with the "body type" approach rather than gender. In Forza Horizon 5, it doesn't seperate male/female characters and then choose your pronouns on another screen.

What about RPGs? How are they doing it?

Will the next Mass Effect have BodyTypeAShep? (or whoever's the protagonist)

Body type instead of gender.

The new Tony Hawk game lets you select any hairstyle for your character. So your petite "lady" character can have a pompadour and your "male" character can have a feminine jehri curl. The older games didn't let you do that.

Well 0.1% of the worlds population has a problem with it while the rest don't see the point, so yes.

Splatoon 3 looks like it'll do it too

Would you have even noticed if nobody told you?

I think it's fine.

It only adds to the game. More game content is not a problem.

You chose a masculine or feminine body, chose your genitals, and chose your voice. Not terribly in-depth for gender presentation, but far deeper than other games have gone.

They used to have you choose your gender but they stripped that feature when people complained they weren't being progressive enough. That led to them using which voice type you picked as the trigger to determine when in dialogue characters should say he or she, which ALSO pissed people off.
