== CAT ratings == While it is horrible, some people will laugh if they see Mario Kart 8 tagged with "Animal Abuse" or Mega Man X under "Racism". While I understand this is needed no matter how minor, we should give the impression that we understand these are not all breakable experiences for people with those triggers playing the game, I for example was only slightly upset by Catherine's transphobic treatment of Erika, more upset by the trans women hookers in GTA, and Papers Please forced me to quit the game. For this we should add ratings for CATS and how prevalent they are.



A level 1 CAT: Will only upset those with major issues with the trigger or has skipible triggers

.This CAT is skipible.

.This CAT is displaying social oppression or offensive material based on different species rather then humanoid groups.

.This CAT is rendered in a cartoonish and unrealistic manner


A level 2 CAT: May touch a sensitive side and cause a small moment of sadness
.This CAT is not skipible, but can easily be ignored and is not a major part of the game

.This CAT is displaying social oppression or offensive material on humanoid groups that do not exist in real life.

.This CAT is rendered in a semi-realistic manner


A level 3 CAT: Will cause a major triggering of those with the trigger
.This CAT is not skipible,and is a major part of the game

.This CAT is displaying social oppression or offensive material based on genders, sexualites, disabilities, or racial groups that exist in real life

.This CAT is rendered in a realistic manner


A level 4 CAT: A level for mostly horror games that will cause triggers even in people who are not normally scared, paranoid, or other such qualities to be triggered.
