Inclusive or not, why?
Why bring politics and sexuality into a spooky game about collecting garbage?
Not including it wouldn't be homophobic, and even if they did include it, they would only appeal to a specific part of the player base.
"Forcing" (for lack of a better word) it on everyone will just spark controversy, debate, and whatnot.

Somehow I doubt the company that values a human corpse at 5 bucks (Around 1/10th the value of an empty soda can) would give a ♥♥♥♥ about identity politics.

Mhm well I could give you one reason, adding a small little pride flag as a ship cosmetic for people to place down on a table somewhere would make (some) people happy, without distracting from the overall experience.

It would also require very little effort game development wise.

There does actuallyexists a straight pride flag...
And tbf if a game was going to add pride flags (Gay,trans,Bi,Pan, etc) straight should be included regardless anyway.

I say that coz ik in Overwatch (since one of few games ik and own that do it) don't have a straight pride for some reason... Then again I've noticed some parts of the LGBT+ community can be toxic for whatever reason.

Still missing my point. Straight pride flags aren't plastered all over the media. Companies don't brand themselves with straight pride products, and straight pride parades aren't a common practice. There is no straight pride month, and straight people aren't asserting that anyone who isn't publicly displaying their flag is blatantly bigoted.
The issue is that it's weird to expect others to publicly celebrate your sexual preferences. Because the average person doesn't have that expectation. Thus the average person is getting annoyed by the constant expectation of openly public special treatment for a specific group of people's preferences for their sexual partners. Because the average person wants equality regardless of who they sleep with.

It is also very thematic to the game horror theme, as it checks homophobic mark

[Careca_maldoso]

if they add i would drop the game

[LodgedBroom]

maybe as a cosmetic but it shouldnt be added to the facility

[projecteulogy]

Why would they add something that has proven not to extend the longevity of a game.

You folks have a really bad statistical probability of not even being around in the next 5-10 years.

Make your own mods.

I was just stating that the flag does genuinely exist, is all. And that for some reason people don't add it into their games for whatever reason but will add all the other more complex stuff.
Because Pride month is (should) be about people being comfortable and happy with who they are, including being straight.

Companies- Companies aren't people my guy, they'll do whatever for money. If it weren't normalised as it is now, companies would not dare to plaster themselves with Pride in fear of losing money. If you're relying on companies for pride related stuff then you're about to get hit with the cold hard truth that they don't care and most only do pride stuff in their games to profit of it, sickening really but that's how it is. Ruin game characters with an out of nowhere "They are gay now." No struggles no nothing just stamp 'em.
Heck, as an example during Pride month companies will plaster rainblow flags- unless they're in certain regions like China in which they don't show pride stuff because they follow money.

Honestly, I do not give a ♥♥♥♥ about Pride month, which someone will probably call me a homophobic homosexual for it, really pride is meant to be celebrated coz of the hardship and time it took to get to where we are now where marriage isn't just between a man and a woman but can be with same genders and all that, everyone should be comfortable as they are who they are... Within reason. (And I only say that coz I don't support ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.)
I've said it before and I'll say it again, the LGBT community is just gradually getting more and more toxic and I don't like it.

For what reason, though?

Because no one needs that stupid ♥♥♥♥ in their space alien game

[god]

people saying it shouldn't be added are weird,., there's no reason they shouldn't be added as like. a ship cosmetic you can buy or something. Not saying that it absolutely needs to be added but there certainly isn't anything wrong with adding it
