ive read this 5 times,. and I still do not understand what he means
No idea but it makes me out of breath just reading it.
If you're looking for a decent open-world shooter with some stealth elements, then give 'Ghost Recon: Wildlands' a blast:
Or if you're looking for something different, I've been having loads of fun with 'Middle Earth: Shadow of War'
Bit more of a clue to what you're looking for would help

Done a few races online with GT Sport now and have to say it’s great.
The game oozes quality and the online racing is surprisingly good with not many bellends on there and people actually racing properly.
And they gave me a Ferrari LaFerrari as a birthday present. Which was nice.

Think he’s a bit like me- doesn’t get time to play. So asking for the types he can just pick up and play, I recommend battlefield 1

Very good little cart game and for that price defo worth it.

Why though?
It has no relevance to anything. What next? "Smith gets a new haircut", "Jones got pre-approved for a loan", "Donald has a new favourite song"....
It's a football management game, not a society simulator. It has no relevance to anything to do with football. They're gay - so what? If it's an RPG, or it was a game that gives frequent updates on players lives and it has an actual impact on the game - like "done for drunk driving" resulting in a club fine option or mental stats alteration etc. then fine.
-------
EDIT: Oh wait, it does.
Soon after, your commercial director will inform you of a boost in the club's revenue, in part due to new attention from the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) community.
So... gay people aren't allowed to invest in a club unless gay people play for them? Reallllllly??!
-------
Why stop there? If this is now a randomly generated RPG footballer life simulator, why can't they get drug addictions, mental health breakdowns and so on? Hell, why can't they be bisexual - do bisexual people not exist?
Really does my nut in this type of stuff. Stupid.
To quote your own sentence “they’re gay so what?”
If it’s in the game then so be it. I can’t see any sane person having a problem with it being in the game.
You’re sounding a bit Prison Planet mate.
It's the fact it adds nothing and is being added for superfluous reasons that have nothing to do with the game in context. Pandering in effect.
As said, if they added it with a raft of other measures in a system that had an actual meaning in the game, then I'd have no problem. But doing it this way just looks like bandwagon jumping and cheapens the issue overall. It doesn't even add social commentary, like "being black makes the game more difficult" in South Park - which is genius. It's just... there. For the sake of being there and getting headlines.
I'm just seeing too much of this stuff. Gay option in an RPG? Makes total sense. Gender/sexuality options in a create a character mode in any game that requires social interaction as part of the experience? Totally for it. But in the context of FM, it just makes zero sense.
Last year they added Brexit as a thing.
In recent years they've added players going AWOL, players getting injured in their own time etc.. - all things to make the game, yenno, as close to real as possible seeing as it is a Football Management simulator game.
It's bothered far too many people than it should have.
Very weird responses.
Brexit had a legitimate gameplay impact; they had to add it due to work permits. As much as adding transfer windows or whatever. They're not remotely the same thing because of the gameplay impact and sense to include it.
As I've just said, if it has an effect on gameplay and was added with a raft of other methods and was thought out to include other sexualities, then absolutely fine. What about players who transition to another gender, meaning the player retires from the mens game? Or alcohol addiction where you send them to rehab? Or prison time for crimes? Again, you can have all these effect regens only if you have to.
But they haven't done that. Instead, they've added something completely unnecessary and in a completely lazy, half-arsed manner.
