It's a start. I want to be able to start hormone therapy in game and have my voice gradually change in game over time. Get to work Bioware.

In the grimdark world of Dragon Age I figured elective surgeries like these wouldn't be a thing considering how it's such a struggle to stay alive and there are SOOO many things that will kill you.
Also it's easy to call this an anachronism, but it's more than that.
It's fucking stupid and doesn't make any sense.
Whatever tho, got to let the coomers coom.

Oh this, of course. But we all know it's not done for those reasons.
It's purely for the game directors narcissism.

It's sad to have to walk away from franchises that have been taken over by this ridiculous ideology.
Seeing this stuff makes it a lot easier.

Marvelous innovation from Bioware, what'll be next. Grafted penis? Axe wound?

I guess in their fantasy world where potions heal people it's possible there were hospitals where surgeons removed breasts.

It's specifically for women who get their tits chopped off to try and look like a man. Entirely a product of 'current day' and nothing more.

Is the option for putting surgery scar not available for male body in this game?

Among the many enjoyable elements of this franchise that modern Bioware has killed, the grimdark nature of Thedas is one of the most tragic. I'll forever miss the tone of the first game (and even the second, although that one had other issues).

This is so ridiculous it's funny. I will only play this if I can pick two names so I can dead name myself.

If anyone tries to gaslight you into thinking this is fine, remember this.

Yep. And personally I don't think it's a good idea to normalize the idea of breast removals in a character creator. I'm kinda shocked that this is now a real thing.

Wait, so in a world of high magic where you can literally polymorph with said magic into whatever the fuck you want to be, why would you need surgery...
What?
So wait, this world also has complex modern surgeries as well? Ye olde plastic surgeon? What the fuck even is this?
This is fucking dumb.

I mean it's an option, you don't have to use it, for what it's worth. I'm not sure what crowd they're trying to impress because I am sure they don't give a shit about the actual game. I'll still buy it if it gets good reviews. Been too long since we had a good bioware game and this looks like it might possibly be a somewhat return to glory.

But this feature wasn't included for female breast cancer survivors, it's meant to appeal to transgender girls who fetishize breast removals.

I dunno, but the equivalent would either be adding implants for a man, or chopping off the ding/dong and installing a hole.

You know you can make a character without it, right?
I don't get why this upsets anyone. Be mad about transgender surgery if you want, makes no difference to me, but do something constructive about it - not playing this is not that. I have no issue if someone who is transgender wants to play this, and uses the option to create a character they feel represents them. Equally I have no issue if someone wants to roleplay as a transgender character for some reason, or if they would never dream of turning this option on. I won't, but what harm does it do to me if someone else does?
I note the options seem to be on or off, so it's not being forced on you.
For the record, I am not pro-trans, or anti-trans or whatever those sides of the argument are these days - I am don't care-trans because it's none of my business.

It's at this exact moment in the video. This Youtuber is simply gushing with praise for the developers for including the top surgery scar.

We need a crash, and I think we're going to get one.

Maybe I'm misunderstanding by "surgery scar".
I thought same type of scar you see in Zoro's chest..
or Dr Stein in Soul Eater.

I guess the positive previews - even from well regarded YouTubers were so galling that people had to make a big deal about this shit.
It's a toggle in the character creator that you very easily can avoid. None on that is forced on you, there's no glowing arrows forcing you to look at it. It's not mandatory by any means. And while that's likely trans coded, quite an appreciable number of women undergo mastectomy to fight breast cancer. A friend had one some years ago…sadly still passed away when the cancer came back.
Ah, well

We live in a world where new Star wars and Star Trek content is getting churned out by the minute, it should be a dream for fans, but it's living nightmare instead.

No, those are regular scars to make your character look more badass, and those would fall under the basic 'Scars' category in the character creator.Maybe I'm misunderstanding by "surgery scar".

The top surgery scars category is self-validation by the developers.

Nothing more immersive in a sword and sorcery high-fantasy RPG than references to modern-day cancer surgery procedures and F to M gender reassignment surgeries.
