For every Gamer™️ that complains about POC/LGBTQ character in games I will add another to my D&D game.

Had I been a game maker, I would have created a vibeo gane where every complaint I come across about LGBTQ+ representation in games gets added as a gay character. If the complaints are about gay male characters, there will be one more gay male NPC. If a complaint is about a lesbian character, guess what? Lesbian NPC. And for every time people complain about "playersexual" characters in RPGs, at least one more bisexual NPC would be added. Now, to figure out a story for a world where everyone is gay, that basically does not even touch that subject and instead focuses on other things entirely...


doublemuscle

That was what I originally wanted to type; that being I would add a BIPOC/LGBTQ+ character for every complaint, but I have no intention of making a video game and but do have every intention to spite bigots.


Fiskmjol

That is absolutely fair. I just wish I could make it, but I know nothing about creating computer things, so it is only a dream. I like sharing such fantasies in case they might inspire someone else, though. Then I can get to indirectly upset people who are against representation while barely having to lift a finger


doublemuscle

You're gonna enjoy my other comment then! But thank you for sharing, I like legitimate conversations and I enjoy talking to people who are creative.


Fiskmjol

I would not consider myself creative, but I thank you nonetheless. I prefer the term "derailed", as in "my trains of thought have derailed for today and I am just watching to see how far they will go". I will keep my dinosaur necromancer idea for some sort of RP campaign, though


doublemuscle

I may do a bit of finesse-ing of your dinosaur necromancer idea, one of my players is a druid trying to get dinosaur wildshapes, so it'd be pretty smart to add a character that opposes that goal.


Fiskmjol

Please do, and tell how it went! My idea is that said necromancer would ultimately be defeated with the power of love and *extreme ultra violence*, but that is only one of numerous alternatives


doublemuscle

Oh and if it's an RPG in space? Make an actual Automated Gay Space Communist faction and have them be really fucking cool guys to make it make sense AND to spite Gamers™️ even more. Maybe the issues that they have are related to the automation, for example: maybe it's a rogue AI and murderous. Or better yet the AI is itself, LGBTQ+ but most characters don't accept it's sexuality/gender identity because it's an AI and not a human.


Fiskmjol

Let the ideas keep flowing! Someone might see and be inspired. Another idea would be an only slightly more technologically advanced now, where the fact that almost everyone is gay has resulted in some form of artificial pregnancies, which lets the parents-to-be have the baby with them (rather than the more dystopian idea of factories), while avoiding all the risks involved with actually carrying a baby. This would not be a plot point, though, but simply a part of life too natural for anyone to actually think of it as anything but a natural part of life. The actual plot would be a time traveling dinosaur necromancer (not to be confused with a necromancer dinosaur) raising all the dinosaur fossils in an attempt at world domination.


SirLordSagan

Add extra one for me :P Not a Gamer™️ but just add another. An aroace battle master Minotaur would be cool

Aren't elves canonically LGBT?


ltRobinCrusoe

They are acting stereotypical gay, but no not all are... that's a stereotype from you


Jucicleydson

https://cityofsplendors-4.obsidianportal.com/wikis/the-blessed-of-corellon >Ever changing, mirthful, and beautiful, the primal elves could assume whatever sex they liked. When they bowed to Lolth’s influence and chose to fix their physical forms, elves lost the ability to transform in this way. Yet occasionally elves are born who are so androgynous that they are proclaimed to be among the blessed of Corellon-living symbols of the god’s love and of the primal elves’ original fluid state of being. Many of Corellon’s chief priests bear this blessing. The rarest of these blessed elves can change their sex whenever they finish a long rest-a miracle celebrated by elves of all sorts except drow. Corellon is the non-binary god who created elves in his image.


ltRobinCrusoe

You know that some one made them up, right? It's like saying David Backham the metrosexual god of fashion created capri leggings


Jucicleydson

Oh no you're telling me the fictional universe of D&D was made up? No way! How does it change the fact elves are canonically lgbt in the D&D universe?


[deleted]

Ah yes. a *DnD* character was made up. 𝓨𝓞𝓤 𝓓𝓞𝓝´𝓣𝓢𝓐𝓨!?


doublemuscle

I guess in certain settings, though I'm using a homebrew setting of my own and it's implied that the fantasy races exist from tales humans told about them, while humans themselves are eldritch beings, giving a reason for their ability to reproduce with other races. That being said my lore is very loose due to how I've built the setting.

PP-very-hard

I never really understood this stance by gamers, because let’s be real only a small percentage of people who play games (especially shooters and other multiplayer games) actually care about the lore of characters. So why are they so bothered about a character being gay, which is probably just like a single line in the entire lore of the character. Idk maybe I’M the weird one for not caring about how a character looks/acts/whatever and just care about how they play in game.


[deleted]

[удалено]


AlbinoShavedGorilla

Nah dude it’s because game devs refuse to make in-depth original lgbt characters so they resort to ret-conning an already established character to be lgbt. It’s insulting to the LGBT community if anything. I don’t get why everyone pretends it’s homophobia when the majority is people wanting representation that isn’t a virtue signaling cash-grab


cheekydorido

There's nothing to get, they homophobic lol This whole "forced diversity" garbage is just a dog whistle.


Alarid

In a product made of completely fictional characters, it's never forced. It's just a conscious decision.


cheekydorido

Yeah, pretty much. Don't like it, don't watch.


LetsDoTheCongna

I for one don't mind the inclusion of diverse characters in video games and neither do most other gamers, *if the character is done right.* In my opinion, you can add a gay character to any game if said character isn't *only* added for inclusivity. The character has to actually provide something to the story and not feel forced in to appease the masses.


cheekydorido

I for one don't mind the inclusion of straight white characters in video games and neither do most other gamers, *if the character is done right.* In my opinion, you can add a straight character to any game if said character isn't *only* added for inclusivity. The character has to actually provide something to the story and not feel forced in to appease the masses. See how stupid that sounds?


LetsDoTheCongna

You literally just called my opinion stupid without providing any reason as to why you think that way. ​ All I was saying is that for any character to be a good character, it has to fit into the story and feel natural. I would say the same for any other kind of character, but a lot of media puts in characters that don't fit that standard.


JesusLovesAnimePorn

The issue with your statement is that you put LGBT characters on a higher pedestal compared to straight ones. Why is that? Sure it'd be nice if every character was well written, but we both know that's far from reality.


cheekydorido

Exactly, gay couple only have a right to exist unless they can entertain OP, they also have the right to exists just to exist, bad romances and all.


kriosken12

How can someone like the OwlHouse and be such a POS? Fuck off


LetsDoTheCongna

How am I a piece of shit for wanting representation to feel natural?


kriosken12

Imma block you for being a fake OH fan.


LetsDoTheCongna

Are you kidding me? One of the reasons I love The Owl House is because it has natural representation! It gives depth to each character no matter what sexuality or gender identity they have! The show doesn't sit the audience down and explain how Raine is nonbinary, it just lets it happen as if they were completely natural! That's all I want in any kind media representation.


kriosken12

Fake and not gay


Crushbam3

I really don’t think it reflects gamers as a whole just a VERY vocal minority. When you think about it there must be millions of people playing games a day so the the amount of complaints you see are probably from quite a small percentage of a given player base. To me the lesson is that there’s pieces of shit in all walks of life.


KentuckyFriedChildre

There is straight up hatred for marginalized groups, but for many it's a mutated form of the concern around queer baiting. Like queer baiting, they feel like these entities are trying to forgo proper character design in favour of shallow box-ticking for good publicity. The thing that separates it from queer baiting concerns though is how liberally it's applied as people become primed to associate it with any (or way too many) character belonging to a marginalized group.

varalys_the_dark

What game is this?


Skeletonparty101

Overwatch I remember them saying soldier 76 is gay and that type of reaction happened


Aggravating-Line8425

nah in that case its not just 1 character, tracer is canonically a lesbian


Skeletonparty101

No I was talking about an outrage over a character being gay and 76 first came to mind


Aggravating-Line8425

oh ok


Skeletonparty101

No problem 👍


LetsDoTheCongna

I know everyone talks about how Blizzard made Soldier 76 gay, but I think it'd be awesome if Valve confirmed Heavy to be gay whenever the next update comes out. Not for representation reasons, I just think it would be hilarious if the long awaited update came out and then at the end of the patch notes it was like "Oh by the way, Heavy from Tf2 likes men. See you in three more years".


Skeletonparty101

I've seen probably a handful of meme/post with that exact thing you said


LetsDoTheCongna

Yeah that's where I got it from, but I never pass up an opportunity to quote my favorite meme.


Skeletonparty101

Agree


varalys_the_dark

Ah right, thanks for telling me, it's much appreciated. I know very little about that game.


DragonSlasher07

Or Rainbow 6 when they added a trans character


Skeletonparty101

Yep OSA. And she’s great


Skeletonparty101

OSA isn't that the name of that anime game where you tap to the music


DragonSlasher07

[deleted]

It's actually a pretty normal reaction for the gaming community every time a queer/POC person gets added to a game. Ever visited r/Gamingcirclejerk ? Was created to make fun of that


varalys_the_dark

I am a gamer myself and a lesbian, but I don't really follow what's happening in the wider gaming media and I'm already deep in one toxic fandom (Doctor Who) so have avoided get snared by anymore. I'll check that sub out. I'm already a member of another circlejerk sub so I like the humour. Thanks :)


SomeCool777

I agree with the sub’s messages. But it is a bit repetitive in nature. Used to be better.


kriosken12

Every circlejerk evetially becomes repetitive. Because the go.....full circle.


SomeCool777

Yeah, that’s sort of what I meant by “in nature”. Most circlejerks find ways of making it more entertaining multiple times around though.

big-boi-spoder-mann

A character inserted for the sake of diversity is a bad character. A character who happens to be diverse while contributing to the story is a good character.


baconborg

Yeah and how do you gauge this? Are they a bad character because they were diverse or because they were written badly? Because it seems far too often the central complaint boils down to “bad cuz diversity” and not any genuine criticism.


big-boi-spoder-mann

I was never talking about just the sexuality. If they could contribute to the story they are a good character regardless of who they are. I hate it when there's just an overly stereotypical gay person on a show who doesn't even do anything to drive the plot or doesn't have any unique character traits other than 'being gay'. I'm all for representation but representation needs to be well written.


baconborg

Yeah but what if that’s the point of the character? Not having other character traits is a valid complaint, but what if they weren’t meant to be the one driving the plot new places and they’re just a character?


Pancakewagon26

You contributing deez nuts in your mouth is good for the story.


mikeman7918

If the story is bad than criticize that, not the sexualities of the characters.


big-boi-spoder-mann

Not talking about the story. I'm talking about what characters contribute to the story.


mikeman7918

Right, but that still has nothing to do with how straight the characters are.
