🏳️‍🌈Same-sex relationships

[GatoCogumelar🍄]

Hello, during these new updates that fix a lot of things, aren't they going to fix the bug where there are no NPCs that can have same-sex relationships in the city? For me, as an LGBT person, I'm really upset with how little attention the team has paid to the community regarding this. There are always updates and nothing about fixing the gay Zoi problem. And this bug just doesn't seem like something that's too difficult to fix... the updates we've received have fixed much more complex problems.

But that's okay, I'll have to wait, I'm sad because I can't enjoy the game properly. I'll only be able to play after they fix this. And I know that for now we can marry Zois of the same sex that we create ourselves, but the fun of the game, at least for me and part of the audience, is creating a Zoi and exploring relationships by meeting NPCs in the world, not creating two Zois and making them marry.

I kind of have no choice but to wait. But I'm afraid that this fix will never come, you know? And it's important to me, and to the LGBT audience in general, to have the same gameplay as straight people or it doesn't make sense, at least for me, to continue having this game... and I spent money on it. Having at least some information saying when this update might come would already be comforting enough. Please take this into consideration! 🏳️‍🌈😿

Related to this is that all generic zois are straight and unemployed. It is weird to see how in a city only 5 or 10% of the population works. And that it is precisely that same percentage that should at least be represented (around 10%) to be gay or bi.

Strange and curious.

Just start a game with whatever you want. I am playing a lesbian couple, they are married, but pregnancys can only from man to women.

They have already addressed this on X/Twitter. They're working on a fix and said it was a glitch.

Its not a bug, its a feature.

But like I said, not everyone likes creating two characters and having them get married... I like creating a single Zoi and exploring the relationships with the NPCs 😕

The game creators themselves said it was a bug... they pinned a message about it on the discord server

They are supposed to eventually enable it for the Zoi's you control. No word on other NPC's that would be a much larger recode I expect and not all players want that in.

I'm personally expect if they allow it for other NPC's it'll be a toggle in the options down the road.

Why spread lies?

I don't speak English, so I'm using Google Translate to read and send messages. I couldn't quite understand what you meant. I think the translator isn't translating your message correctly.

It's already enabled for the Zois we created, however, there are no gay NPCs in the city. And it's important that everyone is included about being able to have romantic relationships with NPCs, you know?

Only for people who want that. As I'm straight there is no reason I need to have gay NPC's in my offline video game.

Options toggle is the simplest solution. People who want gay relationships in their games can have that. The people who don't, don't have to. That should be fine for anyone who is not trying to force their ♥♥♥♥ on someone else.

No creo que sea como me expreso en inglés (que no soy bilingüe), es debido a que lo que comento es muy bizarro. Estoy escribiendo en mi lengua materna y por tu nick deduzco que hablas español. Perdona si no es el caso. Pero espero acertar.

Lo que quería decir es que relacionado con lo que comentabas es que todos los zois genéricos son heterosexuales y desempleados. Es raro ver como en una ciudad solo trabaja el 5 o 10% de la población. Y que es precisamente ese mismo porcentaje el que al menos debería estar representado (en torno al 10%) para ser gay o bi.

Toggle is the simplest solution. People who want gay relationships in their games can have that. The people who don't, don't have to.

I personally wouldn't mind having or not having an option to control the number of gay Zois, just like we have options to control other things in the city. What's important to me is that there are gay NPCs. I think being able to change that as you see fit in the settings would solve the problem.

I don't think It's a bug but I do think it's just a core mechanic they slapped into the game and didn't adjust so all the townies are just generic defaults, we'll likely see it adjusted.

Was it on X/Twitter? I saw something like that on Discord, but I can't find it on Twitter
