Not enough LGBT characters in the game
|
Just my opinion. Out of all 6 playable characters, only 1 is even hinted to be Lesbian, but GGG never says it, as if it's shameful or something. She's reduced to a male fantasy (a hot lesbian girl, really? that's pathetic.) And then there's only 1 PoC you can play, which is the marauder. And of course the only strength-based archetype in the game cannot be female at all, as if to imply womyn are weak. So if you want to play a colored female, GGG doesn't want you to play this game. And out of all those, NONE of the characters are transgender. This isn't entirely surprising considering the game is made by Cis White men, but I'd like to see more fair representation in this game soon.

Why would sexuality of said 1 dimensional personality random characters I play in a game about slaying nonsensical monsters in a magical fantasy land matter when making a game.

Which char hinted that they were a lesbian? 0.O
Maybe you're reading to much into this. The strength class is a big brute of a man because it's clearly identifiable as strength. same with all the other classes, they just look like the most basic form of their attribute alignments imo. The only exception is the scion but she is supposed to be a hot blond noble because she was a god damn noble. It would be strange if she looked like a commoner but was supposed to be upper class. It's been hinted that microtransactions will be released in the future to allow you to play a female Marauder or whatever but if they do that it would require a lot of work and still be a long way off. I think they tend to focus on easier microtransactions because 95% of the company is working on other aspects of the game. IGN: _Blue_Box_ Last edited by BadWoof#0483 on Dec 15, 2013, 11:46:40 PM

If this is a troll OP: *shrug*
If not: this reads like a troll post. It would be nice to have customizable characters, and for 7 playable classes that's a lot of white people, but you can't get that much diversity out of 7 data points or it looks like eyeroll-worthy pandering. IGN: SplitEpimorphism

" Seriously. "Womyn"? This guy is fucking trolling us. |

Not that I disagree that there is a small amount of non-white people in the game, but note that there are 3/7 girls which is a better ratio for most games, and the ranger is specifically a lesbian based on the merveil quest in cavern of anger

So OP, you think if you chose 7 random people, one of them is likely to be transgender in the real world?
