  Huh, didn’t realise. It’s for sure not catholic, but thought it was something in between.

  Those aren’t really Protestant churches, are they? Aren’t they Anglican Church or something?

  That sounds fucking awful. But you need to know thay your tribe is out there somewhere. There are people who will understand you and appreciate you, welcome you into a community, help you change your life. I can’t tell you how to find them, but you need to believe that they’re out there, and keep trying.

  I know it sucks to roll the dice and keep getting shit, but you can only roll that six if you keep rolling.

  True, fair point. I guess that mission where you get drunk with the priest got stuck in my head.

  In the first game everyone is assumed to be straight, and your character receives a stat boost from sleeping with women, which sometimes happens in the story, but mostly will happen at “bathhouses”.

  This is more or less the same in the second game, except that there is an option relatively early in the game for your (male) character to start a gay romance with an important, recurring character.

  I didn’t follow through with that, but I was very pleasantly surprised to see it - both characters are sort of supposed to be womanizers, but it makes sense in the context of the story that they could discover feelings for eachother. It’s up to you whether your character has a childhood sweetheart feminine love interest at home or not (from the previous game), but other than this relatively unimportant detail (beyond the roleplaying of it), the gay romance appears to be arguably the most significant romance in the game.

  All that said, the game director who speaks is an asshole. Given that, I was pleasantly surprised at how “woke” KCD2 actually is. Guess he might has a different idea of “woke” than the rest of us, e.g. more “female ghost busters movie”, less “gay representation”.
