Best games for Pride Month?

[Zoey (Trans Rights!)]

Hello everyone! Since it's Pride Month, I'm curious: what LGBTQ+ games or characters do you enjoy? I'm open to recommendations, whether they're games explicitly centered around LGBTQ themes or simply feature LGBTQ characters.

Here are a few of my favorites:

Baldur's Gate 3
Night in the Woods
Crusader Kings 2/3 (I know, it's a bit controversial!)
Hustle Cat
Pathfinder: Kingmaker/Wrath of the Righteous
The Witcher 3
Grand Theft Auto IV
Fallout series
Sims series
Dragon Age and Mass Effect series

These are just off the top of my head. I'd love to hear your recommendations too! Thank you ahead of time, and I hope you all have a good Pride Month!

7th Dragon III Code: VFD is a favorite of mine.

I'm drawing a blank on anything else.

Why does it matter to you either way?

Also, people do that with games and movies for Halloween or Christmas too. The whole month of October being seen as the month for spooky games.

Comparing pride month to halloween is a power move, well played.

From my point of view. Long, blonde hair doesn't always mean being feminine.
In any case, Raiden has a wife and a son.
In his past, we know that he will become a very cool cyborg.

In some ways, Raiden resembles Gackt in appearance.

Kojima and Konami did demographics focus research and determined that in order to get more girl gamers interested, they should add a dreamy bishonen character who has melodramatic relationship talks with his girlfriend. And they successfully kept it a secret until launch. The brouhaha from players who were caught off guard by not playing as Snake for 80% of it was legendary, and Kojima would continue referencing it with the Snake Eater mask, and the character Raikov, and the director's chair shorts among other mocking trolls.

The source of this information? I've never heard any of that. Do you work at the CIA or FBI?

People have various reasons to play games during certain times of the year.

What the heck is "bishe"? Anyway, Raiden is a boy and he looks pretty feminine to me, so...

Pretty sure Bysshe is the poet who wrote Ozymandias

Good poem. Short but rich in imagery.

why is this topic not deleted and the op not banned? rhetoric question

why does it bother you so much? btw i'm straight and i see no issue with it. for me i ignore the stuff that doesn't fit to me. i don't play games that won't be my thing. people forget Steam is world wide and it will affect many people as well as cultures.

What rule(s) is it breaking?

they are probably more upset that this post is being allowed but previous 'suggest a game' or 'help me find a game like xyx' posts get locked or closed.

Theres also a lot of problems surrounding lgbtq and gay pride events that should curdle most peoples stomachs... so for those it does bother, they see things like this and just cant reconcile with it being allowed.

The people who say this does not apply these weird standards to everyone else. Otherwise they'd be saying "death to all straight rich people" due to how many turn out to be epsteins.

I've also seen the things straight people do at events. Things that would curdle most people's stomachs. I can't reconcile why we allow this. Maybe you're right and collective judging is fair in all instances.
