this so hard...Honest question: Why don't they give us some non-human characters too? Like a grey alien or a dog.
I want to play as this dog.

Forza Horizon 5 Gives You the Ability to Be a Non-Binary Driver
Forza Horizon 5 Gives You the Ability to Be a Non-Binary Driver.
The character creator allows you to use neutral pronouns as well as give your driver prosthetic limbs.
Forza Horizon 5 is out today on Xbox One, Xbox One S, and PC, and it's the first game in the series to feature gender-neutral pronouns.
Forza Horizon 5 is released today, following a day of positive press for the new racing game earlier this week. The latest game in the series has received such good reviews from critics that it is currently the highest-rated game of 2021 on various websites. This year's Game of the Year could be a racing game.
The causes for Forza 5's positive reception go beyond the game's primary features. There's a degree of detail in there that hasn't been seen previously in the series, as well as a level of inclusion that most people wouldn't expect from a racing game. Forza 5 is the first game in the series to allow neutral pronouns as an option, as shown in the screenshot below.
The character creation screen is the first thing players see after being introduced to the game, and it allows them to personalize a variety of aspects of their driver. Their hair, skin, and the tone of their driver's voice, but also how they will be addressed in-game. You can use he/him, she/her, or they/them.
Playground Games' use of neutral pronouns isn't the only way Playground Games has made Forza 5 the most inclusive game in the series through character creation. You can even provide your driver with artificial arms and legs. Creating a character in your own image is important for many players, especially if they intend to play the game frequently. The more components that are included in the development process that allows users to accurately replicate themselves in-game, the better.

The "happy argument" doesn't hold water though, I agree that I don't see too much issue with this particular case, and I'm fine with it generally, but the problem in how we define people is a lot bigger than this.It reminds me this old nerd joke :
"There's TEN sort of people on earth :
1- People that understand binary
2- The others."
Ps : I don't care myself and if that make some people happy good for them.
The thing is it's NOT a choice, it's forced upon the player to choose. I can't stand this pronoun nonsense but I'd still be playing this very moment if I could simply not select pronouns, instead it forces me to, therefore I refunded.This forum is starting to piss me off with all the “anti-woke” comments all the time.
It’s GREAT that Forza 5 is giving people the CHOICE.
If this doesn’t apply to you, then move on. Seriously…
lol at the amount of salt from people who are so scared of binary people....this forum is not that far from ERA in a lot of regards. Good for the game. the more the merrier.
But your coworker is a single person or a group? You started with someone that means one but ends with a groupOh no, a word now has more than one meaning! Whatever will you do? It's a good thing that's NEVER happened before with the English language.
Seriously, if you want to be a fucking intolerant asshole, at least have the decency to own up to it, and stop hiding behind this 'they changed the meaning of the word' bullshit.
By the way, I work with someone who identifies as non-binary. THEY're extremely pleasant to be around, and have a really positive attitude. Unlike a lot of the shit heads posting in this thread.

Yeah can someone post the italian selection screen please?so has anyone tried this in non english versions yet? because this stuff doesn't work in most languages, so all I can think off is they might completely try to stop referring to you in any way but with your selected name/nickname
List isnt so bad. I'll take Heterosexual and Muff Muncher and leave it at that. You guys can have the rest.Do it right, Microsoft
It's called not being insane.Serious question sorry if this derails, I'm curious as I've never referred to a single being as "they/them". Sure I've come out with "they" as it can be singular but "them" is used when referring to more than one being, If i said "them over there" it would infer there is more than one person? How can one person be a "them" i don't get it, maybe im just too old these days.
Interesting, i always figured you were 'Polygender' who was a bit of a 'chubby chaser'.List isnt so bad. I'll take Heterosexual and Muff Muncher and leave it at that. You guys can have the rest.
It does in real racing, but that’s not the point.Do gender even matter in racing game?
Honestly i'm so happy to be a 'dinosaur'. The world has gone beyond loopy, and at this point probably beyond saving.It's called not being insane.
And you wonder where the confusion comes from.Do it right, Microsoft
I identify as a life estinguisher meteor so you and me already have a problem dude.Honestly i'm so happy to be a 'dinosaur'. The world has gone beyond loopy, and at this point probably beyond saving.
I don't like they/them for linguistic reasons. "They/them" is indefinite (when you don't know who a person is) or plural for a group. When you know who it is, it's a plural term that only serves to confuse.Serious question sorry if this derails, I'm curious as I've never referred to a single being as "they/them".

Sounds like you're exactly what we need to cure this insanity -I identify as a life estinguisher meteor so you and me already have a problem dude.
Thanks, also well explained.If they wanted to spend more money on recording more voice lines, that's their lookout. None of my business.

Fucked up mate that what that is. Imagine ever introducing yourself like that in the real world.What is this?
What the hell dude, chill. Can't you see I ended the sentence on a joke? It's such a non issue either way.Oh no, a word now has more than one meaning! Whatever will you do? It's a good thing that's NEVER happened before with the English language.

I'm about to go on a week worth of courses for stuff I need to do for my job and they always have the mandatory presentation of yourself at the beginning. I'm going to do this and introduce myself as an white, heterosexual Apache attack helicopter and see what happens!What is this?
I fucking LOVE how these kind of threads trigger people. I hope one day a AAA game has a character create mode that has different gayness levels based on various traits:
Dan Levy, Adam Lambert <----------------> Ricky Martin, Ian McKellan
Ellen DeGeneres, Megan Rapino <----------------> Cara Delevigne, Jameela Jamil
I'd buy it just to spite the haters. Shit I've never owned an Xbox and I'd buy Forza 5 just because.
I realize the irony in the part you quoted but you know what I'm saying. You have to pick a pronoun, you can't opt of any of the selections.
