Sadly, the mere existence of queer characters is notable, and while I personally would be happy to such things, I can understand that...

...others may play games specifically so that they can get away from things like arguments/debates over gender and sexuality.

@Haileaus Is that OK?

@SvelteKumquat @Haileaus I think it is - MMOs lend themselves to roleplay, where you can be whatever you want, pixels don't matter.

@ArliSunblade @Haileaus The counterargument is that ppl are trying to escape to a world where they don't have to treat others with respect.

@ArliSunblade @Haileaus Should game designers strive to support that attitude?

@SvelteKumquat @ArliSunblade @Haileaus RP certainly. But the game is the platform for that RP...

@SvelteKumquat @ArliSunblade @Haileaus ...and when a narrow PoV is all that is represented in the environment, it becomes limiting.
