    I would disagree.

    Make that maximum amount of buyers.

    It’s not party catering. Or art. It’s a money business that has to create games that sell, so that the developer can get paid. That is the main goal. If there is room for a message, without alienating buyers, that’s also an option.

    Anyhow, we have robots, those sell. We have aliens, they sell. We have unidentified that sells. There’s elves and orcs, which sell. Bunnies and hedgehogs. Various made-up things. Tons more. They all sell copies. Find a way to make it profitable, and it will happen. It’s not about representation. And it never will be. Unless it makes enough money to make more after that.

    It’s clearly not about diversity. Capitalism isn’t about demographics and equal representations.

    That lies in demand. Create actual demand, and game developers will follow. They always do.
