Gordon should be gay 🏳️‍🌈

[hazzmati]

Valve missed their chance with the new update for HL2 to make it more accessible to the modern audience which is a bit disappointing because representation definitely matters.
Making Gordon Freeman gay would potentially add more layers to the character's relationships (if the game explored that dimension) or give fans a way to connect with Gordon on a deeper, personal level.

In the game, much is left up to player imagination, which can make it easier for different players to connect with the character. A fixed orientation might narrow the scope for players who enjoy projecting their own identity onto Gordon. However, a subtle inclusion of his being gay, without making it the central aspect of his character, could allow for this balance, creating more room for inclusivity while maintaining the player’s interpretative freedom. Barney for example could be made to be Gordon's love interest instead of Alyx.

The inclusion of Gordon Freeman's sexual orientation being gay, wouldn’t necessarily diminish Half-Life as a game but it can only improve it. It would reflect the growing importance of diverse representation in gaming. It would open up more possibilities for narrative depth, character development, and inclusivity, potentially enriching the game’s experience for some players without changing the core gameplay or story. Maybe the fanbase isn't yet completely open to that but the world keeps progressing forward and Half-Life can't remain stuck in the 1950s forever. If you respond with homophobic commends I will not hesitate to block you!

I already know how this thread will turn out... Some will fall for the bait and either defend the OP or get mad because of 'wokeness' etc. And in the end the thread will be closed because 'it has devolved into non-productive argument.' Been there, seen that

Ah! yes the age old "Why the exclusion while wanting exclusion by alienating every man who is not gay".

but then there would be no more gordon + alyx (krystal)

[cgymer2021]

No. this entire arguement is wrong. gordon will not be gay.
Half life 2 takes place in a Brutal world. and adding a GAY character would ruin most of it including the relationship with alyx
Valve will not make gordon gay.
Block me if you want it wont change the fact that gordon will not be gay.
Grow up.
And i highly encourage everyone here to report this post for ragebait.

Gordon sexuality is not part of the story the creators intended. HL2 is a story about friends, Gordon, Barney and Alyx overcoming an evil alien empire by working together.
