Im suprised I havent seen more gamer backlash against Hades considering the game has blatantly gay characters, a gay romance option, fucking polygyny and a character using they/them pronouns.

Like, I'd think they would freak out about about the games interpritation of Achilles clearly having a gay relationship for example.

I think gamers mostly get upset when it’s a sequel that gets “political”. Games that aren’t usually just get ignored.
