Agent York confronts local sheriff's transphobia

With how the game's character writing has been so far, I can't wait to meet this character

Also, if I correctly remember the controversy everyone was talking about when the Deadly Premonition 2 first came out, [DP1&2 spoilers]

this trans character is the second game's George Woodman equivalent, ie villain and leader of a depraved sex murder cult and is very iffily written overall.

If I'm mistaken, don't correct me as I'm playing this for the first time.

[More spoilers, fictional SV]

I just finished the game's first dungeon where you witness a flashback where a mother dismembers her drugged up 16-year-old daughter with an axe and it's played up to be sexual and incestuous in a way that made me just go

. Themes of sexual violence are nothing new in Deadly Premonition- the first game had its own BDSM sex cult and some harrowing murder/death scenes but it just feels like DP2 is repeating everything DP1 did but with all the subtlety gone and everything cranked up to eleven.
