I don't really want to get a game where the main (and possibly sole) developer went off on a tangent against gay people
glbt, or whatever gamers appreciate ....basically the same thing as every other gamer and they were just as disappointed by the artstyle and character design.
They want attractive, vibrant characters with personality and yes, maybe some that are not in straight relationships, but not to the extent that it becomes the game's only selling point.
Overwatch and Apex Legends managed that just fine. -(both had lgbt representation).
One of the cited reasons the game failed: they charged full price in an overly saturated market, when other games were offering free to play, introduced no novel game mechanics, failing to differentiate themselves, had poor map designs, and generic characters.
I personally don't play shooters, unless it's a niche interest. The Last shooter i played, was the Dark Forces series.
My grandparents survived the nazis [...] and now some spoiled brats think I'll bend my knee to their rainbow flag.
At best, it’s a very poorly chosen wording on his part, and I don’t understand why you feel the need to pretend otherwise. It doesn’t mean he’s entirely wrong about the whole situation, but what do you think the average gay person would feel when they visit his Twitter account and see this pinned tweet? I just don’t understand why alienate some gamers who might otherwise play this game and have nothing to do with the controversy.
