<![CDATA[Emerging Gay Characters In Videogames]]>I'm glad that more and more games are starting to design gay characters, and making them part of a story; and for the most part, they don't make a fuss out of the character's orientation. What do you guys think? I'm curious to hear what you guys think, your opinions/concerns. I for one am EXCITED for what is coming! (such as Dorian in Dragon Age: Inquisition being the first gay only character in the franchise).

Iron Bull is a temptation tho.  😛 And I'll need patience to use the Dragon Keep.

And if I'm not mistaken Iron Bull is bi. Looks like an interesting character (and a sexy one). I'm specially excited about Morrigan's return, she's my favorite character in DA.

Haven't played TLOU yet.

I know during the apocalypse like that, i'd turn into a flippin monk! lol if I was in a "safe zone", then i'd have some fun. but a majority of the game is in the woods and cities…yeah, i'd be telling the guy "keep it in ur pants until I know I wont get ate" lol

Final Fight's Poison, Birdo were transgender, and EarthBound, Chrono Trigger and Final Fantasy 7 all alluded to lgbt themes.  Really, I think most of bad will came from the PS2 era where GTA treated homosexuality as a punch line and it was a trait of psychotic villains like Vamp, Alfred Ashford from Resident Evil. I think the only positive examples of LGBTQ console games from that era I can think of off the top of my head from that era was Bully and Fable. Current Gen and last Gen, there's Trevor from GTA5 was bi if i recall, and I don't know if Trevor is considered progress. There also were rumors about the two main characters from The Last of Us; both could be interpreted to have been in a gay relationship at some point in the game. Not that sexuality matters when faceless vagina faced nightmares are threaten to devour your head at almost any given moment.

Game makers have learned that they can't make too much noise about their gay characters before hand or people will freak out.  That's why we see gay characters being put into games without any real fanfare.  No one wants another SWTOR type disaster where the player base went nuts over 2 gay characters.  They didn't mind the 2 lesbians though.
