when checkboxes aren't styled as checkboxes
They're called Radio Buttons https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_button
The option female and male are radio buttons yes...
Hardcore ain't a radio button here.
Oh that's fair. At least one radio button in the group must be selected otherwise yeah it's just a checkbox in disguise.
Well maybe it's multiple choice.
Choose any combination you want
I truly thought this was supposed to be a third gender and they didn’t want to call it ‘other’ to not sound dismissing.
Man, round checkboxes are dumb.
The male/female part are radio buttons.
After the first UI update pass, someone on the forums made this into a meme after they noticed that Crate missed the title screen in the update. The dev team thought it was funny and just left it like that.
My assumption would be that the gap between Male and Female is much thinner than to the Hardcore option. Thus it's a new option group. And an option group with only one choice is invalid thus is has to be a checkbox.
I just assumed the option for normal difficulty was to the left and that's why the image is weirdly cropped like that.
There is a gap between the male and female grouping and the hardcore. This is what leads me to believe that the hardcore option is in a different grouping, probably horizontal grouping which is why I think the normal difficulty is to the left.
Why would the gender selection me aligned vertically, but the mode selection horizontally?
Well seeing only 15% of the screen it's hard to say. Could make design sense or could be bad design, or I could be wrong.
