Huh, why the LGBTQ+ tag?

[Kaom]

Does anyone knows why?

[The Queen Salis]

Play and find out :)
Spoiler: There are LGBTQ+ characters in this game.

[chris.ferrantegerard]

Zagreus can have a relationship with Thanatos, Megaera and threesome with both if you wish. Achilles and Patroclus are also a couple.

[Kaom]

Ok thanks guys.

[Vaiseri]

The greeks were very gaey :D

(oh, deleted the comment; the person asked: "Whyyy is there gay stuff in the game?")
Why not? :D It fits the setting perfectly. The greek pantheon was pretty open to all kinds of love and sexual relationships (maybe too open if you check out all the zoophilic stuff Zeus was busy with... ^^').
And there isn't even anything explicit in game, just people liking each other.

There are tasteful fade-to-black scenes with those you form a relationship with.

Zagreus can get cornholed by Thanatos

because there's rather accurate representation of queer themes from Greek mythology! like Achilles and Patroclus! or Chaos' identity that existed before the gender binary for example.
and, well, because Hades is an amazing game

[Dis Lexic]

Yeah, Achilles didnt lose it after Patroclis got killed because his friend/kinsman died, it was because his lover got deded.

[Beebenheimer]

The idea that Achilles and Patroclus were lovers is a stretch, at best. Even wikipedia (the gheyest place on the internet) wasn't really on board with the idea. Seems there's some evidence in certain periods, but it's hardly bulletproof.

I am Greek and i'm offended with the above crap tbh.
Save your LGBTQ fantasies for your own beds.
Perverted people often try to stretch brotherly type of love with "love" or sexual attraction, disgustingly innacurate.

Only foreing people can believe such absurd stretches and those with an agenda to push.
The game is good but what they did with some characters is just disheartening...
Like the behavior/demeanor of Euridice towards Orpheous and Orpheous being presented as ...i wont say what is disrespectful af.
I repeat, the game is not bad but the freedoms they took with some of the characters are to a high degree mispresenting and shameful.

...and let nobody jump up and try to preach to me, a Greek guy about my own history.
find something else to co-opt... shameful display.

So Greek history hasn't been a bountiful source for stories and history since the classical period, it's been "co-opted" this whole time? That pretty much torpedoes a few millennia of human folklore. But as long as YOU are comfortable.

[CrappyBark]

A common meme is that the Greeks invented orgies and the Romans figured out you can invite women to them

[Grim]

Considering Greek mythology...they went pretty tame since it didn't get incest or bestiality tags lol

You're literally changing this mans culture to make YOURSELF more comfortable.
