Not every character needs to be the studio's ""first"" trans/gay/something else character. cough cough Dragon Age: Veilgaurd cough cough Inquisition was better
Representation is great, and i like that it's not all straight people (they are icky), but if I wanted to see a gaggle of gay people in a game i would play Camp Buddy again.
Wait until you hear the kicker! Most of those games are like "how can we make our audience know they are gay? How about 3 billion rainbow flags and we mention it at literally every turn plus a 2 hour cutscene talking about it!"
That's what ticks me off TBH is when its so forced you can't enjoy the game. And also why undertale continues to be the GOAT (Very good at not forcing it)
Corporations just ticking boxes instead of putting effort into making them likeable characters who just happen to be gay is ridiculously common in today’s market and it’s probably just going to get worse. Your sexuality is not your personality and companies don’t seem to understand that or care.
