Poll: Would you play a game where the main character was gay?

[Koobatashin]

I really want to be annoyed that someone even asked this, but the sad fact is that some people honestly would avoid a game if they knew the main character was gay.

Grow up.

Kind of why I posed the question...


Any who I want the first game to feature a gay male in the horror genre.

HAHAHAHAHAHA

Have you seen the youtube video of the gay weatherman freakin out about the cockroach?
that is how I imagine your horror genre'd gay game would go... but maybe with a gun or knife added... I'd buy it

[fraserfj]

a stereotype or a 'normal' gay? im not playing as a stereotype that makes stupid remarks about sliding long bullets into a well greased chamber

 

[SL33TBL1ND]

I don't give a shit, as long as I don't have to sit through an unskippable gay sex scene. Actually that wouldn't be bad if they were lesbians... Sorry lost my train of thought.

I've played Wheelman..

Does that count?

 

[Boxinatorizore]

As long as there weren't any gay sex scenes then yes.

 

[Aura Guardian]

Dude play Enchanted Arms. Fucking awesome.

 

[iggyus]

As long as its a good game i dont care

 

[Undeed]

It should not make a difference unless we have to watch a sex scene(ex. Mass Effect), and If I could skip it that'd probably be okay.

 

[ae86gamer]

It wouldn't matter to me. The only thing that matters to me are story, graphics, and gameplay mechanics. I could care less about the characters sexual orientation.

 

[DragonChi]

Dude play Enchanted Arms. Fucking awesome.

i was just gunna say, the character in that game is...wow. flamboyantly gay. but its amusing. so its all good.

 

[G1eet]

What? why does this even matter?

The only reason for a character to be gay is if the player makes them gay or if them being gay has heavy significance towards the plot.

Otherwise their sexuality is hardly an issue. Master Chief could be gay and it wouldn't make a difference.

This.
Although I never suspected anything while playing. I mean, big aliens with big guns making big explosions.... he never said word one.

Indeed. It was such a good game.

 

[theCrusher1234]

unless the mini game is *insert gay sex joke here* . i wouldn't have any interest in playing but i don't see why not. there were a few games in the ps1 days where the character was a lesbian but that was more to attract perverted young people (like me) i guess when i think about it Hana from Fear Effect wasn't a lesbian... she was a whore. (i voted would play either)

 

[TheRockNRolla]

If it looked good, more than likely.

 

[Trifer420]

as long as it won't affect the overall gameplay, especially if it's relevant to the story and such.

 

[Barry93]

it doesn't matter, this has never been done and indeed never will be done. i like to relate with the main character and if i'm playing as a gay person, i will feel like a gay person. I have absolutely nothing against gays but i would not.

 

[Nouw]

DAM My mouse slipped and I clicked Only Gay Male I was going to click Yes to Both
X_x

 

[Zydrate]

Certainly. In fact I'd like to see more games other than Fable/Mass Effect/OthersICan'tThinkOfRightNow that has it, and where homosexuality isn't just a side-quest >_>

 

[Strafe Mcgee]

As long as the game's good, sure why not?
