- No capabilities differences between the genders (but some between the races (reptilian, feline, humanoid, elves, orcs...)
- You can marry any person, of any race, of any gender if they will have you.
- No heavy emphasis on breasts or genitals.
- Even when you strip a dead enemy of everything, they still have their underwear on and it covers things
- Women in leadership
- Minimal gender stereotypes.

Its not perfect, but for someone who has been actively ignoring the console gaming area for a number of years I was impressed by the visual representations, open ended story lines, and general approach to things. That said, its still a bloody swords/arrows/magic free for all and some have been unhappy about the possible parallels between the Foresworn and Native Americans.
