One of my favorite game chars of all time is trans. She's a female goddess in a male body. Amaterasu, from Okami, she's in shiranui's body, it being that of a male wolf. She's basically otherkin on top of being trans during her incarnation.
Somehow, I don't think this factual description would satisfy people who are interested in more trans representation, though. Somehow, just "being" trans is not enough, and unless a trans character does something uniquely trans-like and isn't just "one more character who just happens to be trans" the people invested in trans game characters will not be satisfied, and that is bad for gaming. All we should want is good chars and if a good char (amazing, actually) like Amaterasu is trans then you should shout with joy and not pretend it isn't true or significant. I have very little hope that your average generic pandering char will come close to Ammy's toe-nails in quality.
