I appreciate Square Enix supporting LGBT rights in FFXIV.

Never before have I seen people argue and insist so heatedly that two underaged teenage females are in a romantic relationship with one another on a game as intensely as this before. It's quite concerning.

Conversely, never before have I seen so many straight people try so very hard to reinforce the Gals Being Pals™ trope because they can't handle the thought of a wholesome lesbian teenage romance in their MMO with a massive LGBT playerbase and numerous queer characters. Where have y'all been the past several years?

The fact that both sides are obsessing over each angle is what's distressing.

It's a video game. Interpret their relationship however you want to for yourself, and who cares how someone else views it.

Straight, lesbian, why does it matter? It didn't matter in the context of the actual narrative of Eden. The point of obsessing over two underaged characters is honestly creepy.

Im not straight, and I think simply.....its Gals Being Pals.
Not even as a trope, 2 people can be close friends and not be an item...or members of the LGBT.

I can stand the thought of a Fictional Same-Sex Couple in any game and setting and Medium.
But Im simply not seeing Ryne X Gaia here.
