I have some issues with identity politics (possibly almost the opposite of yours), but I think you've both missed and reinforced Kentucky James' point: a blanket rejection of 'identity politics' implies a belief that the status quo is neutral to different identities and/or that society being dominated by 'white male' identity and interests is natural and universal.
No, you have missed the point. And point is that what ever your or mine opinion about this or that politics, it should not be pushed in to the game. And when it is, people that are criticizing it are right.
If you want to push identity politics then go do it in to the politic, not game industry. Players play MB to fight medieval wars, not 21st century cultural propaganda ones.
