Okay, no random broadsides at "wokeness" please. I think we should all be aware by now that it means all sorts of things to different people, most of them generally and controversially political and derogatory in a way that's not appropriate to just sling into a point on a gaming forum. And obviously there's no homogenous "crowd" all calling for the same "woke" thing and to imply there is is insulting to the variety and complexity of political and social beliefs that people have. Let's just not go there.
It's perfectly possible to wonder if making a pregnancy story a central part of a romance plot might have been rejected given that it would only work when the player character is one sex, and therefore that romance wouldn't work as well for player characters of others, and even to consider whether that is a sacrifice worth making, without making it political.
(Oh, and I'm not sure whether any of this is spoilery for what's actually in the game as I don't know anything about Minthara's romance. If it is, please do put in tags.)
My Brother in Christ, how human procreation is political? Not sure I understod your point. Obviously Minthara can't have a child with a female partner only a male partner, idk what's political about that.
