I suppose if every MC in video games was a gay character then that would probably do it for me but I don't know what else.


I would have to agree.

Though all these virtual worlds may feature main charaters with supernatural strengths, powerful futuristic technology and severe mental instabilities leading them to commit unspeakable acts without remorse, the one position that I can't possibly imagine putting myself into is that of a homosexual character. I understand that video games oftentimes are supposed to bend reality in order to offer new creative ideas and perspectives, but you have to draw the line somewhere if the immersion is to be preserved.


It's not a matter of realism. I'd just never want to play as a gay character because then I'd never be able to take the game seriously id be disgusted by the MC.

Thankfully this is a scenario that will never actually happen because the developers know such a game would never sell.
