"One of the biggest additions to the game in its 15-year history, the "Bigger and Boulder" update's overwhelming list of changes, fixes, and additions include over 650 new items, as well as new bosses, game mechanics, and much more. The update includes a plethora of changes to the game's character creation menu, which has scrapped gender in exchange for additional options such as changing a character's body type and voice."
"Naturally, a game allowing further customisability by scrapping a decades-old gender mechanic has anti-LGBTQ+ right-wing gamers absolutely raging online. Terraria's community page on Steam is now filled with users complaining about the minor change and accusing the developers of, you guessed it, making the game "woke". One user went so far as to claim removing gender symbols from the game's menu would impact player experience because they might get confused and "accidentally choose the female body type"."
Terraria released a major 1.4.5 "Bigger and Boulder" update that adds over 650 items, new bosses, mechanics, and numerous fixes. The update reworks character creation by removing gender selection and adding options for body type and voice. The change prompted a wave of complaints on the game's Steam community page, with critics accusing the developers of making the game "woke" and some arguing the removal could confuse players. Other users responded with dismissive or humorous remarks, and comparisons were drawn to past controversies in games like Cyberpunk 2077 and Oblivion Remastered.
