    Quite a few games featured that FF in general included... another worthy mention could for an instance be Biowares Dragon Age Origins... and more.

    Definetely would support it and moves and more to it for FFXIV... also stuff like this already do exist in FFXIV as well.

    Edit:
    And oh yes am probably bi-curious too whenever it get to it, who cares really whenever it get to it?

    And any one that puts *blocked* in or whatever or for whatever given silly or stupid reason to stay in their safespace, is actually leaving their safespace not confronting whatever is going on and in the end, just learn to stop bother what others is into or not and accept everyone as the individuals that they are.

    It is quite simple, and uhm... mobs going after people for their ways of being? We should be past that in this as well as previous century if we ever are going to evolve into the next step, however those people probably got problems understanding Darwinism to begin with as belonging to a crowd who refuse to learn from the past... and or give into science at all, question is then why are they on their phone/laptop/pc/mac or whatever if they are against those things... the father of the computer was LGBT as well.

    That is an interesting case. I liked what they did with the storyline, nothing concrete is said but when you have the two characters bond and have a great big rainbow rock as the centrepiece, it tells a tale I think even if many will say its all platonic. Honestly though I am not normally a fan of ‘queer coding’ mostly because its something I feel should be left in the past nowadays. 80’s X-Men comics? Sure, I can understand and appreciate the coding the writers added to such characters and themes. Nowadays I just feel it can be used too much of an excuse to earn brownie points saying ‘Oh look we have subtext!’ whilst not trying to offend anyone against such things, leaving such content feeling rather hollow. There are of course a lot of exceptions, and I am more forgiving for franchises like FF doing that due to where they where created. Its not always a bad thing if done well, but at times it can stiffen storytelling too. An example would be how The Last of Us TV series treats the character of Bill in regards to the game. The series is ALOT more open about his sexuality in the series then game, and it is 100% better for it. It lets the character be explored in a much deeper way, and ultimately fits with the theme of the show and the main characters journey much more then in the game.

    So will FF14 also see LGBT+ characters in the next expansion? There's no excuse left for not having any major LGBT+ characters in the MSQ now that Square Enix has signaled it's willing to not censor any content in the Middle East.
    What even is an LGBT+"Character" anyway?

    Is it just someone who is gay or BiSexual? Ok...whats the big deal, This isnt a new progressive thing.
    Or does the "Characters" whole Identity and Personality and background factor around it, so the only thing to them is their Sexual Orientation?
    Sounds pretty freaking Boring, and I dont want that anywhere.
    How about a good and cool character who HAPPENS to be Gay or Bi. But their entire existence isnt just to tell us what they wanna Date?

    Or is it a weird haircut Dyed a Bright Color? Or a bunch of Piercings?
    There is no shortage of characters like that anywhere you go, much less Player Characters and OCs. Its not new, its not special, its not Progressive, and it doesn't automatically mean they are LGBT+
    If you/anybody thinks this makes a LGBT+ character, or is any amount of representation for the community.
    Then you are truly in Clown World.

    Have we become so starved for trolls that we lower ourselves to such low-quality bait?

    If Im a woman and decide to identify as a man tomorrow, without attaching a ding dong down there, everything stays as it is, but I am interested in men and not women, am I gay or am I straight?
