For story purposes
For example, let's say the protagonist is a family man and his sidekick is a closet homo
They travel to the middle of the forest or some shit in search of the bad guys and then when they have to camp out for the night, the gay guy starts making moves on the hero, causing the hero to have to fight off his friends advances without alienating him because he needs him to fulfill the prophecy or some shit

gamergate is stupid
western movie/game writers just don't know how to make a character badass without resorting to cliches that just make the character obnoxious. it's like every badass female character adds like Donte. that, or they resort to stupid bullshit like having other, cooler characters say how scared they are of the badass female character.
for example: tales of the borderlands had Mordecai and Brick, who are basically demigods in the universe, say that they're scared of some old lady with a bazooka because telltale has hams for hands and doesn't know how else to establish that a woman could be powerful
and if you're going to make a fucking warrior woman, make her look like a warrior instead of some 16-year-old girl's self insert that can somehow throw grown men around like nothing despite looking like a skeleton with boobs. it's like having an otherwise realistic game with an emaciated 16-year-old boy with a greatsword as the protagonist: it just looks out of place.
i'm just really mad about pseudorealism. i'm sorry

You know while she is stirring some shit up right now, just imagine her career 15 years down the line. What could this thing have coming down the line that would be to her advantage? Being the uninspired piece of shit she is, she will shrivel up and fade into irrelevance. Man that is gonna feel so good.

The only reason people know who she is because she's a professional victim.
Her game is trash, and he's incapable of actually producing good content. And as long as she continues to hold the belief that games don't need to be games, she wont succeeded in this industry. She's said things like game controllers are too complicated, she wants games to have LESS interactivity.
No one will remember her in 5 years time.

How do they do it? It's especially noticeable when it comes to gay characters. No matter how flamboyant they get Japanese gay characters are always entertaining and awesome while Western gay characters ooze agenda.
>>318787567
You don't seem to understand what he was saying either.
>>318787628
You pretty much said it, anon. Japanese are concerned with entertaining their viewers/consumers while Westerners are trying to push an agenda of some sort.
>>318784120
>>318782458
>>318787628
Because the reason western gay characters exist is to please an agenda. They are added in to be "progressive" . What ends up happening is a cringeworthy sterotype for poltical reasons, not because they wanted to make a character.
Japan does have that stigma, when they make a gay character, they do it because they want to make a gay character. There not trying to appease a political narrative. So it's actually genuine.
>>318780703
>Eastern game
>Female cast is indistinguishable besides hair color
>>318788576
>western game
>all the women are indistinguishable from the men except from hair styles
>>318787628
A lot of the gay characters in Japanese media are developed by actual gay people. Some of them smack as pushing the gay agenda, but most of them are actually joke characters parodying the view others have about gay characters. Ikuhara has made a career out of it.
In the west, gay characters are mostly used to push an agenda. Much like female or black characters. 'We put this character in because it shows we care!' And usually made by non gay people. Though there are a few guys who were obviously gay and still pushed it as an agenda (holy god Scott Thompson, does everything out of your mouth have to be about you being gay).
>>318788886
even then the hair styles are usually short gross dyke hair cuts

See: Joachim Valentine, Magypsies, Leeron, Pri Pri Prisoner, Bon Clay (+ all Okama in OP). All male gays (arguable the more uncomfortable type of gay), and extremely queer. But all fantastic characters people love. Whereas I struggle to name one likeable gay character in Western media.
When you're fighting an uphill battle toward acceptance, being a stuckup cunt about it is not the way to gain appeal. When you do it like the SJWs, people are bullied into accepting your cause, which will only turn to contempt. Which is funny because the above mentioned characters would surely get bashed to hell and back by SJWs for stereotyping, despite them being incredibly well received by the straight crowd.
They make me feel closeted sometimes

Same with women to be honest. But we live in an age right now that if you complain enough, you'll get your way. So while womens rights groups and homosexual rights groups were mocked and ignored in the past, these days they have the full backing of the media. And law abiding white males are blamed for everything.
