I've noticed LGBT characters seem to be better received in Japanese games than Western games.
Why is this?

I've noticed this exact thread gets made often on this board. Why is this?
From what I've seen Jap games either have them appeal to certain fetishes or their lgtb status isn't a major part of who they are, they don't shove it in your face all the time.

>Typical Jap Lesbian
Anime loli that looks like every other anime loli, with the only difference being that they blush around other female NPCs rather than the MC
>Typical Western Lesbian
OC Donut with some defining feature and/or attitude that screams 'I'M A LESBIAN!', and her sexuality is her entire character, rather than a trait.
Both are awful, but because Japs don't usually differentiate straight girls and lesbians visually, Japs get a free pass. That's not to say all vidya lesbians are bad. Just most of them.

What western games do this?

People here distrust the motive of Western developers.

/v/ extrapolates LGBT characters in Western games as indicative of the developer's political beliefs, while they don't usually do that with Japanese games since it's assumed Japs are more conservative on average.

Tracer isn't a 'typical' western lesbian. Her sexuality is actually done well, considering it doesn't really impact her character, or her presence in game.

Do you have any examples of "typical" characters that don't involve Bioware or Anthony Burch.
>>385263901
a-all of them you fuckin weeb!
>>385263281
Japs mainly cater to yuri weebs. They're okay with LGBT as long as it panders to their kinks.
Western games try too hard (Dorian) or deliver half assed characters (Tracer)
>>385263281
>better received
you mean better made
>>385263281
Because they're characters that are faggots not faggots that are characters
>>385263281
Because they look sexy and appealing, not like those ugly abominations the west churns out.

How the shit is Dorian "trying too hard"?
>>385263281
My japanese niggas are blissfully unaware of the shitshow currently going on about identity politics and related cancer, they think we're eating burgers and killing galactus or some shit.
