As I say, it depends how they died and what the game is normally about.
If a game isn’t normally about the thing your relative died to, you might log on, thinking you would be safe from references (in this case, to flying) only to find yourself immediately confronted by it.
You have to try to fully imagine it from their POV.
Perhaps there is truth to that, but by the logic I’ve seen thus far in this thread I guess my Engie is offensive to victims of terrorism because I run in with bombs and blow people up. Granted I only do that for crowd control but still.
This is more of a T-Pose joke than it is anything else. T-Pose being that standing pose game developers look at when designing character models and armor. But regarding the plane crash issue, people die every day. Should we take death out of video games entirely because it might offend the victims of dead loved ones? This political correctness stuff needs to stop. It’s why we can’t have nice things. By this logic my engineer is offending victims of terrorism because she runs in with bombs and blows things up.
