I know the E3 thread is no place for seriousness but it bugs me when somebody says something totally innocuous and some SJW screams at them for being some puritanically religious ****phobic dude or whatever because they're pointing out some obviously corporate strategy for marketing to a demographic and how cheap that is.

Dig up.

Is there a way to depict a lesbian relationship that isn't "pandering" because you seem to have drawn the line at "show them".

gently caress.


I'm fine with lesbian relationships. I'm fine with them in video games. What I'm not fine with is somebody doing this:

Gays should absolutely be allowed to kiss onscreen without homophobes whining about things being "shoved in their face"; how do you think we feel seeing the entire history of media featuring All Straight poo poo, All The Time

The only way you'd believe the second quote is if you also believe the first quote, because there is nobody in the universe who would look at a trailer featuring a guy and a girl kissing and go "ugh, I can't believe they're shoving heterosexuality in our faces like that"

Nah. The original post was about sexuality in games in general, and the response made it into some attack on a specific type of sexuality and proceeded to move on with the argument in a disingenuous way. Gay or straight had nothing to do with it.

No it's because if it was a straight couple kissing that same complaint wouldn't have happened. Why is it always "pandering" and "shoving it in our face" when it's not a straight couple

bitching about a lesbian kiss is not talking about 'sexuality in general', it's about affection between two gay people being treated as intrinsically dirtier or more scandalous than affection between two straight people
