I want a quality character no matter their preference or skin color. I don't need to be represented in the media I consume. I represent myself
So gay characters are fine as long as people don't ask for them and because representation isn't important to you then it also shouldn't matter to anyone? But also don't talk about being gay because it doesn't matter to the story but that same feeling isn't echo'd for straight couples in the game like the manderville's or the leveilleurs whos family life affects the story? Are they less valid because they have a focus on family and their dynamic with each other? Do you see what I mean?

Hetero relationships are everywhere because it's the norm so it almost seems invisible to you. No one wants to take away those relationships because that's apart of life. It would be surreal if people didn't have kids or spouses in game but you don't feel the the LGTBQ deserve the same chance.
