I personally think games should be open and give the player the ability to choose their own alignments.

You want a button to say the n word? I literally don't know what the fuck you're saying here, what the fuck is an "alignment"

The game is undeniably fun to play, but many games tend to have agendas behind them, even if these aren't necessarily negative ones. In terms of Sony, the company isn't particularly known for its moral stance, and they choose to include content based on what is popular or mainstream at any given time. If the N-word were mainstream, it'd probably be included in the game.

Even whining about "agendas" is an agenda. Your agenda. Demanding that things somehow not have an "agenda" as you see it is just whining for a status quo that is so numbingly comfortable that you don't notice it in your bubble world.

If the N-word were mainstream, it'd probably be included in the game.

Whiny "nonpolitical no agenda just give me choice" nerds like you trying very hard not to think of something racist for more than 5 minutes:

Wow. You just discovered what capitalism is. Congratulations. I know you people always recommend “basic economics” to leftists but I’m glad you finally had the time to read about it.
