At this point I'm not sure I could be convinced this was even intentional. As someone on the homeland observed, the credits are forty-four minutes long and list twenty-seven separate sub-contracted studios. The pronouns shoehorned into the character creator and nowhere else could easily have been a single diversity hire at one of these studios doing what they do best and bitching until everyone else is desperate to get them to shut up. The gender neutral voice lines would have just been BGS saving on money.
Additionally, the way all of this is handled in-game is unintentionally hilarious. It works exactly the way a lot of these freaks think it does in real life. You walk into a store, slap down the cash equivalent of five sodas, then visit le heckin' soyence machine and instantly change everything. But I'm not covering anything that hasn't already been beaten to death here.
The game itself is Oblivion in space with Fallout guns and Skyrim shouts. It's a decent game, but the way they handle NG+ renders a lot of things pointless. There's no reason to engage in shipbuilding, house decoration, or the entire outpost system because it all goes away. You don't really have the option to skip NG+ either, since you're run entirely out of ways to generate XP outside of radiant quests that will take you back to the same three dungeons over and over.
TL;DR I got ~50 hours out of it and getting more will depend entirely on competent modders fixing Bethesda's shit like they always do.
