Is there a reason for that?
Seems like it might just be because he's still called he. The late transitioning Twitter-tech-tranny set believe it's more important what you say you are than what you appear to be because they all look like balding middle managers in fancy dress. While Gwyndolin is such a qt you don't care it says 'he' in flavour text.
 
Good one, John! This makes you look really cool and progressive and not like a total fucking asshole at all!

In fairness their party was probably much better once they got their replacement healer.

Also enjoy your 30 min penalty John, i'm sure it was worth costing those vile misogynists 5 minutes of their time.
 
I brought up Dark Sun Gwyndolin in the first Wu thread. Since then, I've bounced the idea off a few feminists on the Internet that are still sane enough to be sociable with me. And noticed something a bit disturbing. There's a remarkable amount of pushback to the idea that the last god left in Anor Londo is "really" tranny.

Brought up his dress, his feminine voice and his freakin' breasts. No dice. Less immediately obvious, the fact that he's extremely self-conscious of his appearance, y'know, like the actual tranny people I know in three-dimensional space. He hides behind a hidden wall at the bottom of the Tomb while conducting his business up above with the image of his busty, conventionally attractive sister.

They point out that the flavor text still calls him "he" and that Gwyndolin never brings up any of this to the player. We've reached the dark point where a segment of the population literally cannot conceive of a tranny person who is not the recently occurring, first-world living, declares it immediately, danger haired, tumblr having, tucute.

Entropy is grinding the world to dust. Soon there will be only dark. Slake the Lordvessel and link the flame. But first, Gwyndolin the Dark Sun would like to make a quick aside and insist the Chosen Undead refer to him as "xir."

It's been mentioned a few times but, as a general rule, Neoprogressive shit-stirrers make terrible character writers and even worse editors. And there's a reason that the trope of them being absolutely terrible at writing for characters exists: It's that they have to virtue-signal, at all times, and they buy into the whole identity politics is necessary horse-shit. Paired with their beliefs in "empowerment" and such, the overpowering majority of them cannot conceive of a world wherein their character has to face legitimate hardships or conflicts. Any character that's included to fill out a progressive check-box has to scream that to the heavens, or there is no point. And they think this because that is what their so-called "trans" friends (who are not trans at all, like Nora Reed, Vade, etc) do - scream endlessly about how they're trans and oppressed because of it.

It's actually ironic because this is one area where Wu has them not only beat in legitimacy (Wu did transition after all), and in terms of mentality (Wu has no interest in screaming about how she herself is a tranny), but in writing. Socially Unconscious is fucking terribly written, wholly unoriginal, and about as interesting as my taint, but it at least has interpersonal character conflicts and shit actually happens at the end of the day, with several characters going through arcs.

We've reached a dark place when Wu can be tacitly considered a better writer than someone.

Ah so he is one of those kind of healers. They quickly get a reputation and find it hard to get a group outside their friends because no one wants to deal with that bullshit.

The ones that never get invited to a raid or event again because they're willing to fuck over everyone else in the unit if they don't get their way. We see this in every MMO, but it's never as blatant or shitheaded as it is in MMORPGs. Hell, even Warframe isn't immune to it (you guys who've seen a Vauban flake out on a party know what I mean).
 
What's so sexist about telling people to eat balls? You don't need to be a woman. You could be gay or really desperate for money.
Brianna does her best to forget that gay men exist when there isn't an opportunity to blame them for everything that is wrong with something.

Wu was triggered by someone making a sex joke because nobody ever sucked his balls when he had them, so he bailed on them and faced a thirty minute penalty so that those dang dirty dudebros would have to spend maybe 4 minutes to find a new (probably much more competent and personable) healer while Wu fucks off to Twitter to let everyone know her epic win.
 
Is there a reason for that? They don't want transsexuals depicted as bad guys? I thought they'd jump on that and claim it was more tranny slander. Seeing how they're so willing to claim any "good" character is tranny based on flimsy evidence, I find it pretty strange they'd ignore this.

Dark Souls sperging:

Dark Sun Gwyndolin isn't even "bad" per se. The gods in Dark Souls are actively giving the finger to the Natural Order of Things. The dark must come, sooner or later, and the gods (and Chosen Undead's quest) are all like, "No, not just yet," like a petulant child wanting an extra five minutes before bedtime. Gwyndolin does engage in deception, using the illusion of his much hotter, big-boobed sister to send the player on their quest. But it's because he feels people will respond much better to the entreaty of the goddess - it says flat out in the flavor text that he's ashamed of the way he looks. But Gwyndolin's faction is also responsible for upholding justice; the Blades of the Darkmoon hunt "sinners" (players who kill other players). The player can join this faction and serve him and get items and buffs in return. As long as you don't look directly at him.

TL;DR Morality in Dark Souls is complicated. And the worldbuilding in Dark Souls just flat out lacks the verbiage for Gwyndolin to simply declare, "I'm trans."

Since it doesn't specifically hit the checkbox of what the average SJW thinks of, then it doesn't count.

Get the fuck over yourself, John. Healers are dime a dozen. They probably got a new one the minute you logged off.

Also, joke's on you, bitch. I love eating balls. The bigger and hairier, the better.

I would have gone with the fact that the Dark Souls fanbase has declared Gwyndolin superior waifu fodder, so the unwashed never-will-be-mistaken-for-another-gender troons are insanely jealous.

Kinda reminds me of a certain character... :medallion:

The one thing trannys usually don't want, is to be seen and treated as trannies. An MtF transexual wants to be seen as a woman. An FtM transexual wants to be seen as male. Pointing out and calling attention to their "special status" as trannies is actually the exact opposite of what these people want.

You got that all wrong, Bribri wasn't offended, she just couldn't concentrate on the game while people were endlessly bringing up the prospect of eating balls. :tomgirl:
