Personally I enjoyed the gameplay and found the writing to be so so with some really good moments and some awkward and awful ones (River hitting on a female V, I was with Judy and was frosty with him at every opportunity and he still went on as if I was leading him on. Like MF I could not have been clearer.)
That River thing is just peak social commentary
your example is so funny cause if i asked my female friends rhatd be accurate lol
Yeah my wife was watching and was like โYup, accurate.โ
That and the Netrunner at the Afterlife saying โGood girlโ after returning a job made my skin crawl.
Keeping it spoiler free: at one point my female V was walking past a bunch of the Barghest gang who were non-aggressive, but making degrading comments. One said something about "coming back on all fours" and I turned around and mono-wired his head right off. The entire gang went aggro and I had to kill about 50 of them. Worth it, will do it again next playthrough.
Honestly you definitely did the right thing.
Just as the game was meant to be played.
I'm still cut that the only male romance option for female V is a cop, and a creep on top of it
They may have changed it, but I recall the romances were entirely dependent on which voice you chose. Genitalia didn't matter. So you can theoretically make a feminine V with the male voice if you want those male on male options.
Male voiced V is so boring though... The actor has such a limited range of emotion in his lines...
