It's 2017, when can we get a prominent LGBT character in the storyline?

How come cis and het people get special treatment then? They're always included.

No one is forcing anything, by the way. It's a simple request, and honestly it should not be an overly burdensome expectation for writers to create a world with more than just one kind of person.

You must play Overwatch a lot, then. If you want to play as a LBGTQ, go play Overwatch. I certainly do not want that in this game.

The lore for FFXIV is different. It comes from a Japanese company. We don't need a game to be over-sexualized where characters have gender roles. I respect homosexuality, but to me everyone blows it out of proportions like it is so cool to be that way. My coworker is gay and he feels like he's cursed because he doesn't like how his life played out, with how losing friends and family because of his own actions.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but the WoL is a clean slate in that aspect, so we technically already have a LGBT prominent character if the player chooses to be, not to mention the lore writers leave the extremely close interactions of Haurchefant and Aymeric up to the interpretation of players.

So far I've found every opposing post pretty reasonable, except for yours, "If you want to play as a LBGTQ, go play Overwatch. I certainly do not want that in this game." went far ahead what anyone else has said so far, crossing the line of bigotry.
