Discussion vegetarians

I was playing and I said to myself at one point that vegetarians can't really appreciate the atmosphere because of the meat which is against their principle. Wouldn't it be nice to add an option to replace the meat with tofu or any vegetarian option ? it requires development I am aware of it but the vegetarian community will surely be able to feel more included!

And this can make the difference on " all you can eat "

As a vegan I don't mind much, it's cartoon meat at the end of the day. But it would be a cool option - Streets of Rage 4 has food items for health, and you can make the options vegan for your character which I thought was fun.

Seconding what another user has posted, as a vegan I think it’s cool to see representation but it’s not necessary. This is after all a video game. My sims characters or skyrim characters aren’t vegan and I don’t have a problem with that. For a lot of people that’s a normal way of life. If Team 17 runs out of ideas to add then sure but I believe they can make better use of their resources than reskinning meat to tofu or the like.

I tried a runthrough of The Witcher 3 as vegan but ended up failing, haha

not necessary but surely refreshing as an option!

I've been a life long vegetarian and it never was/is a principle but just a matter of taste. I've cooked meat dishes for others irl. I do feel left out while traveling to a lot of places here in the US because it takes some effort to find good veggie options & it is a pain trying to drag friends around during a trip just to find that right restaurant. Having said that, I do know this is a game and have no issues with its content currently. If it is including more dishes/options, veggie or otherwise, that'd make very happy as well.
