Frustrating relative lack of LGBT NPCs in this game

Most characters don't overtly have an obvious sexual orientation. I can think of only a handful of couples we've met along our journey. If you're looking for stereotypes to "code" characters, then that can be wildly offensive and detrimental to the community.

Not to mention. What little representation SE offers in their titles is pretty groundbreaking for a Japanese game, as the LGBT community is not generally well received in the east.

But this is likely a troll thread

M... If you're looking for stereotypes to "code" characters, then that can be wildly offensive and detrimental to the community....

Only the entertainment industry does this still to this day and Japanese video games are no exception. The only thing offensive about coded characters is that companies that do that, think that is fine for representation, and tend to only use coded gay characters as villains.
