They're just trying to get out in front of it because G*mers think women in video games is "politics". My answer for G*mers looking for something a-political is to play Pac Man.
Yeah that's what I think a lot of them are doing, but surely some of them might be aware that "politics in my vidya" has become a euphemism, which is why I think sometimes it might be more cynical.
Also it's very disappointing that you're denying the dialectical nature of Pac-Man. No, I will not explain.

They're probably aware. Thing is G*mers have always been hard to please. If they're not upset about women being in the video game, then the gameplay is too easy, or the story sucks, or the graphics suck, honestly there's no winning with them. My advice to studios is just to make the game they would want to play, like how it used to be. That's how we got groundbreaking and experimental AAA titles, an art now that seems to be delegated to indie games who're willing to take risks while the big studios chase trends.
And yeah Mrs. Pac Man is the first political game.

Honestly why I've come around to indie games.
Gamers are also really easy to fool. If you say it's not political, they won't independently notice it's political.
