I think it's a shame that they improved the game. CDPR claims to have satirised the objectification of trans bodies for profit, but the way they've done so is by objectifying trans bodies for profit. It's not actually a satire or critique, it's a trope played straight, and that's harmful. One of the winners of their cosplay contest was a cis woman who shoved a glowing neon dildo down her pants, and they posted her cosplay on twitter to congratulate her. I liked the fact that the game responsible for these controversies was bad. I want people to have negative feelings associated with a game that does this, and a negative image of a company that does this.
