obv transphobes should not have done that, it's a huge overreaction to requesting pronouns and a really shitty thing to do in general

that said, i understand the dev not wanting to put a statement out. iirc the romances in stardew are fairly gendered and i can understand why it would be difficult to implement pronouns and have them be respected in romances where your gender is significant

the developer may well feel non binary people are valid and might just believe he wouldn't be able to do them justice in the game and doesn't wanna say that

i think it's the right thing to do in this situation, as well as condemning the doxxing and harassment. but i understand it being a tough thing to do
