I have not read much about the new Bioware game Dragon Age: Origins. I have only seen one video of the game, and that was just a few minutes ago.
So why do I want this game based on one video and no knowledge of it?
Because it’s about damned time that the gay aspect of the main character is finally put out there, up front for everyone to see!
In the video I saw, there was a sex scene between two male characters. You can see the video here. And while Chicago Now claims the video is NSFW (Not Safe For Work) there isn’t anything pornographic in nature with the video. It is extremely sexual, it’s hot, but not graphic.
And I say it’s about time that game designers allow one of their characters to finally go in this direction. It’s not that the character is gay. It’s your choice of dialogue used to speak with the other character that leads to sex, whether male or female.
But just the fact that designers are willing to let this happen in a game is just another step in the right direction. I would venture to say that we will eventually see a game where the main character is homosexual in the not-too-distant future.
I am not asking for graphic sex scenes. I do not need to see penises in a video game. But an openly gay character that is the main character is something I cannot wait to see.
And for those of you who may be thinking that the Gay Tony add-on for Grand Theft Auto is what I am looking for, let me just tell you that because it is done by RockStar, I can tell you it’s going to be full of homophobic idiots, just like every other GTA game. And I won’t get the Gay Tony add-on because I hate the GTA franchise. It’s boring and one of the stupidest games I have ever played, or tried to play, I should say.
