What are some good videogames with LGBT plots/characters?
>>8308292
I liked We Know the Devil but it's short and kind of Tumblr. And honestly kind of unnerving and terrifying.

LEL. :( That's impossible nonny :( XD :(

Plots, no idea. I think Max the rabbit from the Sam and Max games is gay?
>>8308292
Dragon Age: Origins
>>8308378
Explain her.

Persona 4 (Naoto is prolly ftm)
South Park: Stick of Truth (Big Gay Al, etc)
The Last of Us (Ellie, the black girl, and Bill)
>>8308534
I mean not that character, but the novel has an Intersex character. Saying more would be spoiler but it's huge plot point and it's never treated as a joke.
It's called Fata Morgana.

>Persona 4 (Naoto is prolly ftm)
>Poeple still believe
Naoto was simply a girl that passed herself as a boy.
fallout new vegas
some bioware games
I don't remember which game this is from but seems legit
Usually it's just a once-off thing with no actual broader social implications, which bothers me.
That's why I liked the gay guy in Dragon Age 2. Because his being gay actually affected his life in some way instead of just happening in this hypothetical world where there is no such thing as homophobia (even though the world is based on medieval Europe).
Asellus from SaGa Frontier.
Lesbian heroine in a Lesbian love story.
In 1997.

It was neither confirmed or denied, friendo.

What? The game clearly states she doesn't hate being a girl, she's literally passes herself as a boy because sexist in workpolice. That's why in the ending on P4G you see her being more feminine.
I find funny that people that try to give a LGBT angle to P4 given that modern Persona pretty much hates gays.
Maybe this list can help you, somewhat

Judging by the artstyle, it's probably Ladykiller in a Bind.
I'd like to read it, but the visual style is too off-putting, and I'm saying it as someone who had no problem reading Higurashi and Umineko with the original sprites..
MTF
The only video games I'm into are teen angst games (Beyond Two Souls, Life is Strange, Until Dawn). Also those where you can customize your character like Fallout.
Why would you want trans characters instead of normal women characters anyway?
I dislike the token lgbt and/or pandering so there's not much left for me to play.
>>8310985
MtFs are funnier than real women.
Kian from The Longest Journey franchise is gay
>>8310737
Persona 5 also has a pair of campy predatory old gays that keep running into one of the characters. There's a cool drag queen character thigh.
There won't be a character like Jun any time soon again. Even then I think they did the whole "I exclusively love Tatsuya, not men or women" route.

>There's a cool drag queen character thigh.
>Implying the dude who did the gay rapist joke and the "she's a man" joke in P3P intended her to be cool
They probably want you to think she's weird more than anything I bet.

In P5 they compare a similar character to "the detective prince" leading me to believe that Naoto continued being a boy detective.
>>8308608
Oh yeah. I forgot about the Confirmed Bachelor perk

Which doesn't mean much because it's just her title.
The game tells you over and over she feels like a girl. Catherine had a trans character and she was treated like shit by the cast.

Actually I do like playing games.
It's just that blatant "hey guys here's DIVERSITY" leaves a bad taste in my mouth.
>>8311120
Probably, to highlight you're in the rough part of town. But I like her back and forth with Ohya.

Games pander all the time. They pander to straight nerds with slutty women and waifu shit. Nobody complains about that(except 'gamergurlz'). And why should they. Getting pandered to is fun. You've just gobbled up too many /v/ memes about gay pandering being bad, because they don't like it. Like gamergurlz hating vidya sluts.
>>8308292
Try Dota 2, so many faggots everywhere. :D
>>8312737
We only make up ~5% of the population. We do congregate, but the gays and trannies who do hang out with straights are pretty much 1-2 per group.
>>8310934
The problem with those VNs is not the art, it's the atrocious translation.
and also the fact they're just shit in general
>>8312960
Wasn't that one written in english?
DRAMAtical Murder has a high rating, it might be a bit yaoi or whatever. Same with Togainu no Chi, Lucky Dog, Lamento, Sweet Pool.

Naoto is a pretty difficult character for most western consumers to really get because naoto's presentation is explicitly tied not to matching her self perception but the greater cultural perception -- that she wants to be who she is and has aspirations that are much less common for women in Japan and sometimes discouraged and so she conducts and presents herself more in a way to fit what she aspires towards based on culture. I don't think that means you can't make an interpretation she could be FTM or transmasculine or whatever, but I think a lot of people give the persona series more credit for being, I guess, "progressive" on LGBT matters when in my opinion that isn't what it is.

>Naoto is a pretty difficult character for most western consumers
She really isn't, she explains the issue in the game pretty clearly. The police force is mostly male, the detectives she admired are male, so she turns herself into a boy because she's too afraid to live as a woman.
People just want to see what's not there, looking for representation that doesn't exist. Kanji is the same issue, even if you can argue he may have been bi, it's obviously the whole character was written so straight boys felt safe because phew, he liked a girls.
>I guess, "progressive" on LGBT matters when in my opinion that isn't what it is.
Definitely agree. Which it's weird because I think old Atlus could be more fairly progressive, just look at Jenna Angel in DDS.

That's retarded.
