Editorial Where is gaming's Brokeback Mountain?

[MLMarkland]

I'm here to announce the commencement of development of "Brokeback Mountain Defense" a genre-bending title that delivers classic tower defense strategic gameplay with a twist!

Nah, make a game with lots of gays, handicapped, women and ethnic minorities. Don't go clichée overboard but put them in roles that would usually be covered by macho male characters.
So instead of Duke let a lesbian, black handicapped woman go on a killing spree to save the world. 4 BFGs mounted on her wheelchair with a homosexual sidekick that is a real magician (with hair).
Then, after that awesome experiment all can agree that it was one of the best games everbut didn't sell well because the world wasn't ready for it yet.
(After all, nobody can force us to buy it)

GTA4: Lost and Damned has full frontal male nudity if you wanna see some dicks.

I still wonder what the hell rockstar was thinking..
Also I see the protagonist of that game saying one liners like "It's okay to be gay", with a Duke Nukem voice

"I'm here to suck dicks and chew bubblegum............and I'm all out of bubblegum."

What was that shooter from ~10 years ago that had walking penises as one of the
enemy types? If I remember correctly, it was a fairly mainstream game.

"Suck it Down."
"Your face, your ass, whats the difference?"

Postal had some penis mascots ingame i believe.

Mr. Balls?

 

[lefthandblack]

I just remembered that it was giant walking butts, not penises.
Butts, penises, same difference. Anyway, I couldn't find it.

Epic fail of an article.

Did they champion Mass Effect for "shaking off our inhbiitions about sexuality" too?

 

[Gragt]

You could kinda see it going bad when you could read a link to an article called "Are Gamers Scared of Sex?".

 

[Jasede]

Gay.

 

[Wyrmlord]

Brokeback Mount&Blade?

 

[Shannow]

Gay.

Right, lets ask the target demographic: Would you like a dungeon crawler with obviously gay furries? Would you have prefered Wiz8 if Rattus Rattus had been Schwanzus Longus? If you weren't paid for robbing a bank but for raiding a gay massage parlor because the owner was only pretending to be gay and your party is supposed to convert him through a nice gang-rape? (Only works if a least one party-member *hurrhurr* is male)

I suspect that the person writing this article just couldn't come up with something to write. Then he tried to tackle "a sensitive issue". The actual percentage of games were the characters sexual orientation is even known is few. This is mostly down to RPGs and some games with cinematics. Then it could be asked as to why they would cater to a 3% demographics with what is a minor things in most cases. It is a little bit bigger in Bioware games, which may probably be why they include this. Still, I suspect they don't win anything on doing that.

No.

 

[Murk]

You could have gay relations in Temple of Elemental Evil and Divine Divinity. Hell in DD you even got experience points your first time around...

 

[Thrasher]

That's hot!

 

[User was nabbed fit]

But there's no gayness in Halo, or big games like that. Get with the times; people don't want to play games with midgets and dragons, so of course they don't know about the gay stuff in so called "CRPGs", you faggots.

 

[Jasede]

Halo and Gears of War are pretty damn full of gayness.
