@RehnSturm256@neckbeard.xyz I've been thinking about this a lot recently and I think I really know why these trannies are so attracted to video games (besides the autism link) and why the industry caters to them. Video games provide an escape from the hetero-normative, cis-normative (and I hate these words) world and give them a fantasy where they can truly roleplay as themselves and not be judged. Even if there are no trannies in the game, either mods/ROM hacks, fan fiction, fan art, or crazy headcannons can allow them to live their trans-normative fantasies without the limitations of the harsh reality. Bonus points if the game's universe has any analogues to transgenderism (e.g Zelda/Sheik).

The rise of indies have allowed gender-studies majors to not end up bagging groceries and create their own games revolving around LGBT topics. Now, almost every game-dev circle is filled with lectures on how to make your game more inclusive to <insert made up identity here>. This has caused both the AAA and indie scenes to cater to them with coming-out simulators and pronoun options.

The online component allows them to be with other trannies and pretend that being trans is as common as having red hair. The transgender-autism link makes trannies really common on the Internet. They need their constant validation and they can constantly echo "trans rights" and <insert character name here> is trans while banning any dissidents. They can never get away with this in real life (at least not now).
