Ah, my favourite type of internet search: "The MOST Unhelpful"
Also, "Many developers are trying to represent non-binary characters" is gonna need a BIG "Citation Needed" from me. I know indie Visual Novels are working to increase gender choice but like... is the new Halo doing something?
The article is by a non-binary person and they don't seem to be under any illusions about the pickings being slimhttps://kotaku.com/fire-emblems-byleth-is-a-great-example-of-a-nonbinary-v-1844549617 …
"Many" definitely feels like a bit of a stretch tho, given most of the other examples seem to be years apart
Having read the article it has confirmed my suspicion that "Choose your form" is doing A LOT of the heavy lifting, but I don't blame anyone for grabbing on to anything that looks like it represents them.
And my point is that TLOU2 gave lesbians and (binary) trans people representation. No head canons required. I’m sure ND would do a nonbinary character given the chance, and if they didn’t, they wouldn’t require us to contort ourselves in knots to see it, it’d just be there.
Also, something I noticed is that in their are 3 characters from Undertale listed in wikipedia's "List of fictional non-binary characters," which is a depressingly short list. TV is only /slightly/ ahead of anime in terns if longest list
The thing about video games in general and Undertale in particular is you end up conflating characters whose gender (and other aspects of their identity) are deliberately obscured to the audience and ones who actually explicitly are non-binary
People latched on hard to Frisk and Chara as canon non-binary characters when it seems like they were originally obviously just a joke about old school player characters with no obvious identifying characteristics so players could project onto them
Like I think it actually says the monsters refer to you by "they/them" because they don't know anything about humans and never ask you what your gender is And "Chara" isn't really Chara's name, that's fanon they went back and canonized
(The First Child's name is the name you enter at character creation, and they put in an in-joke that Chara is the "true name" because people dug up references to it in the files, even though in the files it's just short for "character")
