Nonbinary Video Games

[professorsnowflake]

Let's talk about video games. More specifically, games where you can be nonbinary/genderqueer/anything that does't strictly fall into the male-female binary. So...anybody know of any?

I mean, I know about ChoiceOfGames www.choiceofgames.com/ They're an interactive novel publishing company and many of their novels have nonbinary character options. Tally Ho, Fallen Hero:Rebirth and Werewolves:Have Rising are some of my favourites that have NB options. 

I also recently discovered this Pokemon fan game called Pokemon Reborn where you're given six character models to choose from. Two masculine presenting, two androgynous and two feminine and regardless of which one you pick you can say you're male, female or other. So you can play as an NB person, a trans man or a trans woman. Yay for inclusivity in Pokemon games! Okay it's a fan game and not part of the actual series but that's probably the best we're ever gonna get. I've been told that Pokemon Uranium, another fan game, has an androgynous option as well but I haven't gotten around to playing that one yet.

I love ChoiceOfGames, I was so pleasantly surprised when I played through the first game and it lets you put your gender into a blank and give pronoun options for they/them ^.^

Ummmm, Im not really sure of any other games that dont go by 2 default genders.



Once I made a visual novel for a college event and included genders for "man", "woman" and "person", basically everyone who played it through (including the guest of honour and the head of faculty lols XD) was asking "what does person mean" XD

I can't think of any games where there might be a named protagonist that's NB but the Dark Souls games have gender sliders. Whilst it's not perfect for those who want to be off of the binary scale, it's still pretty cool.
