Could you please define “potray”? /genq
I don’t think its ethical to portray straight people in video games at all.

I honestly don’t think I could. I don’t think that’s an English word.

Bioware is well ahead of you. Haven’t most of their romanceable NPCs been bisexual for ages now?

Any game that doesn’t make all NPCs “opportunistically bisexual” pisses me off. Quit locking content behind my character’s pronouns.

I’m sort of the opposite. Give characters sexualities! Make them people! Give them criteria by which they will or won’t find my character attractive! I feel gross when every NPC is pansexual and aggressively attracted to the main character for no reason. Then again, I’m acespec, so.

You can do that while still not locking any content behind gender though.

For my part I didn’t mind that so much in Cyberpunk 2077, I just played it multiple times with different V characters.
But then I can see that it’s a big time investment and not good for everyone.

Yeah, I’m usually only playing games once. I don’t want to be forced to replay just to see content like that.

I DEMAND EQUAL OPPORTUNITY OBJECTIFICATION IN VIDEO GAMES
NO /S
Except some aces here and there, for the homies to talk about books with.

I still think asexual characters should be “romanceable”. Like, there shouldn’t be increased-friendship related content behind gender.

Still salty about Tali and Visas.
