There's already shitloads of diversity in gaming.
This recently trend of people screaming "VIDEO GAMES AREN'T DIVERSE" is like hearing someone say that Twilight is the first ever piece of female literature to become popular. In other words, they're ignoring hundreds of years (or in gaming's case, decades of years) of successful female content creators, just so they can feel like heroes once they pull the curtain back and show that there's a shitload of women making video games. Like a crazy person screaming at a storm cloud that starts raining, thus "proving" that they can control the weather.

Depends on what exactly you mean.
If by more diversity in developers well no one cares if you have the skills to work in the industry, no one will turn you down for race or gender, if you have what companies look for you got a job, just like any tech field.
If by more diversity of in game characters, one blame focus groups and publishers, games in general have had a wide cast of good characters both human and non-human.
Lastly fuck forced diversity, it just makes sterotypes

Tattoos are the only body modification that is acceptable.

Piercings and unnatural hair colors are massive red flags that whoever has them are useless people.

Name one person with unnatural hair color or a nose ring that isn't a complete tool.

Diversity is hiring a black person because they're the most qualified. Forced Diversity is when you can't fire them because they'll sue you for racism

If a developer is bullied into including more diverse options in their game, it's forced diversity.

I would actually say it's the other way around. Piercings are acceptable, tattoos are not. At least you can simply take off piercings whenever you need or want to, but you're stuck with a tattoo forever.

Though I understand where you are coming from, the problem is that when you start differentiating between forced diversity and "authentic" diversity, the people who are prejudiced and against any diversity at all (whether they're conscious of this bias or not, and yes humans have lots of unconscious biases) will hide behind the forced diversity argument in order to not seem like prejudiced fuckwads. You're just giving them an out.

We should certainly be critical of poorly written/conceived of games that hide behind diversity as a justification for their relevance, using it as a prop to stand themselves up on instead of relying on their gameplay. But in these cases, all we have to do is point to the gameplay itself and discuss how it isn't good- the only time to bring diversity into the equation is when someone else uses the diversity as some sort of selling point for the game, we can dismiss it as not being relevant to the quality of the game itself. It will be easier for us to dismiss the diversity as a positive aspect of a game when there is more diversity in games in general, because it will make these weaker entries that rely on diversity as a crutch less justifiable by the people who would use it.

Diversity shouldn't be a selling point for a game, but there should be more of it in games.

My mother got a nose stud. At age 50.
My mother can't even hear the word "fuck" spoken aloud without being shocked.
She does craftwork for a living, and used to be a teacher.

This taught me an important lesson: Having a piercing doesn't really fucking mean anything at all. It doesn't mean anything more than an item of clothing does. It doesn't define who you are as a person.

I think video games should be developed by a culture and shared within that culture to preserve ever lasting cultural traditions that won't be warped through time by human error. A video game such as Majora's Mask that encapsulates Germanic culture in a world that would see it completely wiped out.
