I thought LGBTQA+ wants to be regard and accepted as normal people.
Normal people don't feel the need to be represented, so I guess this group of people only want special treatment. -

Sheesh! I guess ancient greeks were forced to depict homosexuality in their art. Creators should be free to put or not LGBTQ content in their games and it should be a non issue.Quote:

Also pretty sure no one has anything agaisnt them being implemented, as long as its not put in people's faces, and also forced in. A la "MY HUSBAND LEFT ME IM A LONE MAN PLEASE GO AND GET HIM FOR ME I NEED MY HUSBAND" which is basically how its implemented right now in this game, it literally is pushed that they are lgbt instead of just leaving it alone, there is no need to go in detail and be like "yeah see guys they are lgtq !"Quote:

You can have well fleshed out characters and a good story where the writer really wanted such characters, not just for the sake of having an LGBTQ+ character but because that’s how they imagined it. Depicting LGBTQ+ characters should not be controversial. -
03-25-2023, 01:07 AMAword3213Sure, but not at the cost for the sake of it. Too bad it's almost always poorly executed.Quote:
