Why is this tied to being liberal? I know many liberal bigots and racists, and I know many conservatives who are open to all sorts of experiences and people. This isn't about where one falls on the political spectrum. This isn't about a difference of opinion on a trivial matter.
This is about some people, King-Nate27 et al., who don't want to see gay people in "their" game.

Edited by zNapSack: 7/12/2018 10:35:18 PMWhat purpose did knowing it serve? Did we need to know for story purposes? No. Then why have the character make such an unsolicited and essentially unnecessary remark? Do you wear a sign when you walk down the street that proclaims your sexuality? I'm guessing probably not. And if you did, what would be the point? Why would everyone you passed need to know? The same is true here. Why did we need to know? Was it comical? No, she's not Cayde.

Why is anything written into a story, then? This is really about people being triggered by a kiss. If someone kisses in front of you on the street, that happens without any meaning to you. You are very likely unaware of any other context. Does it feel forced to you? If this had happened outside Pride Week, would there be all this hullabaloo? Unlikely. This discussion isn't about the merits of the literature behind Destiny. We all know it's contrived, full of plot gaps, lazy writing, paper thin characters. This is about people feeling that "gayness" is foist upon them. I've never seen so many literature buffs in a game forum.
