I wish people would stop making a big deal about this stuff one way or another - the race and gender of real life people honestly makes ZERO difference, so the gender and race of FICTIONAL video game characters being somehow meaningful to people is simply laughable to me. Like, these are just digital renderings of 3D models designed to look like people.. Have we really come to be so obsessed with race and gender? I thought we were more evolved than this.. Just like in real life, where a person's actions, characteristics, and overall quality as a human being should be all that matters - the quality of the entertainment and of the character should be the only things that matter in the realm of fiction.

I suppose I just wish these companies would quit making such a big deal about propping up these "underrepresented characters" as if they're some kind of hero for putting a woman in their film or video game. Like, isn't this mentality somewhat racist/sexist in and of itself? Because you're placing value in RACE and SEX over all other elements.. Furthermore, you're using these people as props or human shields to feed your massive egos and look virtuous. I wish we can just put women and poc in entertainment and just leave it at that.. Like, you never here a company saying "hey white people! Come play our game because there's plenty of you in our game!" So why should the reverse exist? Isn't it merely the other side of the same ugly identity politic coin at the end of the day?

And especially - stop attacking those consumers who don't like said product because you'd decided they're racist or sexist based off nothing but your own hunch. People are beginning to see this as a fool-proof way to make a shitty product as all you have to do is fall back on attacking the "lowly, hateful consumer" who isn't on "our level of virtue." It's become a safe way to excuse creating lazy art and entertainment without having to answer to anybody when the backlash hits (see Ghostbusters). I think THIS is what most are voicing their displeasure about, NOT the simple fact that women and poc are being placed in these products in the first place. Like, why the hell would they care if these people are being represented anyway? Lol..

Additionally, I can obviously only speak from the perspective of a white dude (well 3rd gen Italian Polish dude to be specific :P) but if I were a member of one of these groups and these people were making such a big deal about the appearance of my group in said piece of entertainment and that somehow I should be ecstatic simply because these people share my genitals or skin color, that would probably come across as majorly pandering, insincere, and insignificant. Now, if we're talking about REAL issues and real discrimination in society, of course that's a different story.

 "I'm fine with that and SJWs have been begging* for this (begging = calling developers bigots)" [citation needed]

Your problem with citing other games with women as successful as some sort of proof is that it fundamentally misunderstands how these outrages come to be.
Chiefly, they require a narrative of some sort of ill-defined threat coming to get what's yours.
"Some game has a woman in it" isn't newsworthy. However "YOUR game now has a woman in it" will make waves.
Then you come up with a convenient excuse, and mask your view as that of "the fanbase". Which is were you see the holes in the explanation.
For example, "Tomb Raider continues to have a woman protagonist", nothing. "Shadow of the TB's Lara appears more muscular", now you got something.
(Beside, googling any of those titles+ sjws will give you plenty of results...)

"The trailer looked more like a superhero movie in general"
A quick glance at the reveal trailers for the last few games shows plentiful explosions, high-octane action, guy in armor shooting a machine gun, exploding helicopters, the works.
If anything, the BF5 one is more subdued than usual.
Regardless, if you don't like the tone... EA didn't even mention you. Why make up a conspiracy theory as to why a game has a tone you don't like?

You do inadvertently show that these outrages are all based on "appearances", i.e. not what's actually happening, but fail to realize that anything can be shown to be about "the enemy" if you don't define who you're actually up against. The possibility that these devs just want to have women because a) they were there and b) they like being inclusive is completely ignored. It's just "pandering" to the " sjws". 
One 9/10 review mentioning misogyny becomes comparable to countless people complaining about a woman in the marketing.
It's a total lack of prospective that allows you to claim you just care about games being good, while also mindlessly parroting the same points as every other "anti-sjws".
