    Eh, if it's only a RTTS thing, I don't think it hurts anybody. After all, only the user will see it since it's singleplayer.

    If you give an inch, they'll want a mile.

    So the answer is to never compromise on anything ever because everyone will always want a mile?

    Sorry, I don't live my life that way.

    There's nothing to compromise.... girls DO NOT play baseball.

    I would amend that statement, because girls do play baseball, just not Major League baseball. Your statement is way to generalized.

    Actually girls did play professional ball back in the 40's. This is a major league baseball game, not a fruity unicorn baseball game.

    I can tell by your statement what kind of person you are.

    Not wanting girls in an MLB game because of realism is fine,
    but the "fruity unicorn" statement is all I need to know about your character.

    You are correct, I am not a liberal.

    Yes, but you are a snowflake, getting offended over little things like "Oh no, a girl could possibly create herself in a single-player mode that no one else will see! The horrors!"

    Glad you're passionate about the real problems in life.

    Don't think politics have anything to do with your obvious little man syndrome. You should grab a beer with joshjays and celebrate all the things you hate.

    I don't hate anything, and I don't care what anyone does in their free time. But simply put there is no place for women in the MLB.

    Then we should also outlaw 45 year old 4'11 300lb CAPs right?

    There doesn't have to be a place for women in your MLB. But taking the option away from girls and women who are enthusiastic about baseball and have to play as a man is just plain weird. It doesn't, wouldn't, and shouldn't affect you.

    I actually like the idea. It adds another dimension to the game. If a user wants to create a “League of their own” custom league that would be cool. You can even alter the sliders to make it more realistic. It’s not unprecedented having women play the game if given the opportunity as we saw from the aforementioned movie or Toni Stone in Negro League baseball for the Indianapolis Clowns in the 50’s. There’s plenty of young girls playing Little League baseball nowadays. This is a video game and should be about inclusiveness for everyone and provide options for them to do so. The fact that no women are currently in MLB shouldn’t be the determining factor because this game has plenty of things in it that aren’t a part of MLB. Players should be able to play how and with whom they want to play with period.

    I can see by your avatar that you play Stellaris, which is a great example of how far you can stretch your created players. I mean, you can choose mutated fungi people of any color, gender, and behavioral traits.

    Waiting for the "but women were never the supreme warlords of an intergalactic empire, totally unrealistic" comment.

    I remember playing that game back in the day lol. I think it was actually called Baseball Stars. Had a ball blasting homers with some female characters.

    Not everything has to be inclusive to everybody.

    That’s not a hateful, racist, or sexist statement in any way. Some things are just fine as they are.

    No, that's not, wanting realism isn't any of those things, and I get that argument. I don't think you've said anything wrong or that your opinion is wrong,
    But the other guy saying "This is a major league baseball game, not a fruity unicorn baseball game." Is sexist.

    You realize it’s just an option is all anyone is referring to. No one is implying that women be forced into rosters. But having the option to do so should be available for anyone that wants to do it. I enjoy having the option to edit or create fictional players on my teams or myself onto MLB rosters. Same principle, Baseball isn’t baseball only because men play it. If I edit pitchers to only throw knuckleballs and change ups or alter their fastball sliders I can change this game into Major League Softball too.

    That might hurt the simulation.

    OK, but 4'11 300 lb 45 year old CAPs are super realistic.

    Dont you judge me!

    It was the same logic when CoD WW2 came out and had female players: but immersion! But anachronism! Yep, in WW2 you could run around, regardless of your platoon and shoot at will, recover full health after 5 seconds when critically injured... if True immersion was a thing, shooters would include crapping your pants when facing the enemy

    I must be remembering from a while ago.
    but then it makes the possibility even sooner, I read or heard that she intends to try for the draft.
