I was referring more to the way the game went out of its way to not have any white male characters, and to purge any beauty or sexiness from its female cast because in the eyes of the activist left straight male sexuality = evil.

Add in the lead character designer's comments and it very much feels like the game was pushing to score points in the culture war rather than just trying to make a game that everyone could enjoy.

There is a white male character:

And I don't feel this character is particularly ugly. 

That guy seems to be Hispanic based his name. (Teo)

Still though, let's include him for the sake of argument; the game's roster does seem weighted in favour of certain groups. On its own that's not big deal, but in the context of the lead character designer's comments it does feel like he had an axe to grind.

Haymar isn't ugly, that's a fair point, but she's the only character out of 16 that's not horrendous. And they still made sure to cover her entirely from the face down in a shapeless robe. Again, nothing inherently wrong with that, but the notion that female characters being sexy is bad is very much a leftist culture war talking point.
