Really?

[Neo Starfury]

Not to hate on Squarenix I realize they've been dying for sometime now but that last video on Steam was a funeral dirge.....I mean come on rainbows and animal people still? I feel like that stuff is very over played and over acknowledged. Wish politics weren't so often placed in our fantasy worlds. But that's only my opinion I am not trying to speak for the rest of normal people however nice series so far just needs more filters

The pixies and other fae in ShB are genderless as a rule, all using they/them pronouns. A girl in Sharlayan has an explicit crush on Alisaie. EVERY SINGLE DOTHARL has a complicated relationship with gender where they don't care what it is and their souls have, according to them, been through the cycle as man and woman both. Gaia and Ryne mirror, almost shot for shot, the ending of FF8, which is explicitly romantic between Rinoa (Ryne) and Squall (Gaia), which is some of the strongest gay coding there ever could be. I can keep going, even.

You were right up until Ryne and Gaia.

you mean the one that was a shot for shot scene between Squall and Rinoa?
the one with the big ass rainbow crystal

Nah. When you shot-for-shot remake the FF8 ending, you are signaling pretty hard they're together without them saying outright. Nevermind that they stand there and look at a rainbow crystal afterward.

Ah yes. "Sisters." That mimic the FF8 ending almost shot for shot. The romantic ending of FF8. That's totally sister-coding.

FF14 feels like the least "political" MMO to be honest. No gay characters, no trans, they never celebrate "pride month". Its just not a thing in Japan and im glad about it.

You clearly have never once paid attention to ANY of the MSQ XD

No hate, but FFXIV leaves interpretations up to the players a LOT, especially sexuality. You have confirmation bias, no hate, because you are a MtF trans furry. MSQ is what it is, which is pretty damn neutral. That is why just about anyone can relate to the story.

FRU would like a word with you
