    LGBTQ people existing in video games is only “political” if you’re a bigot. It’s really that simple.

      There are lots of games who have LGBT that literally nobody has a problem with. BG3 is good example

        Then there’s The Last of Us Pt. 2. One of the best narrative games I have ever played, and probably the best of that year (I don’t remember what else came out). Just an amazing experience with a fantastic, deep, heart-wrenching story…

        Remember how that one turned out? I’m pretty sure at least one voice actor was getting literal death threats for voicing a non gender-conforming main character… Just think about how fucking stupid that is for a moment. The person reading a script into a microphone… That would be like threatening Sebastian Stan because he played Trump in that shitty movie.

        This is why we can’t have nice things. I love video games, but “gamers” are just embarrassing. I don’t want to be associated with that shit.
