First of all, your English is not bad. Seems to be as good as many Americans. And good for you for not being scared to admit who you are. It must be difficult, living in a place that is so inhospitable to you.
Regarding LGBT characters, I have to say that I very much like the fact that the Ryder character in Mass Effect Andromeda was ostensibly bisexual. I don't think she, or anybody else in any video game has significantly influenced my opinion of LGBT people though. I'm a hardcore libertarian, so I try my best to treat all people as individuals. I certainly don't discriminate based on sexual orientation. At least, not that I'm aware of.
On a somewhat related note, I've found that I much prefer playing as a female character, when given the choice. I'm a straight male. I think it's nice to be able to put myself in someone else's shoes. Not that playing a video game character is anything close to the same thing.
