>>

>>5983728
No.
>>
>>5983762
to add to this, it's possibly because there are so few well-written video game characters of any orientation, these days.

Mr. Gold and Mr. Silver from God Hand.

My trans-bro thought the mercenary trans man in Dragon Age: Inquisition was a pretty cool guy.
>>
>>5983953
what's a trans-bro?
>>
>>5983518
The lead of Phantasmagoria 2 was bisexual, and the game never made an issue about it. There was also a gay character in the game, and he was likeable for one.

>>5983771 is right though. It's hard to think of any characters that are well written, let alone LGBT ones.

My best bro, who happens to be a trans man. I thought it was fairly self-explanatory 2bh.

>Anything Bioware related since 2008
>well written
>Dragon Age: Inquisition most of all
Jesus Christ. Get some fucking taste you piece of shit. That was the most pandering, piece of garbage you could have thought of.
God, what a terrible, terrible game.

Dreamfall: Chapters and its prequels has a bunch of gay or lesbian characters (either minor or main). Kian is one of them and that makes it really interesting because he’s a religious zealot who also starts off as being really racist.

From Mass Effect: Kaidan (Cortez is ok). Don’t know if Liara counts.
Bioware in general has a bunch of LGBT characters.

Ellie from The Last of Us.
Life is Strange.
Gone Home (I know it’s probably pandering, but whatever).

Pandering is not that bad. It feels good to be pandered too. As long as the that’s not all there is about said character, it’s ok for me.

The way you write makes me want to punch you the face, fucking Jonah Hill mother fucker.

Is she actually or is it implied because she's basically Ellen Page?
>>
>>5984814
She kisses a girl. And I think it was confirmed by the creator. Well, she's probably at least bi.

despite all the trolling on /v/, I thought Dorian turned out to be pretty awesome. I know he's not the mathc4mathc husbando a lot of you queens wanted, but still a great character.
