Poll Is the Xbox homophobic? (27 votes)
I've noticed a lot of Sony titles are inclusive like The Last of Us, however not a single Xbox game shows the lgbtt community. Is Xbox Homophobic?

Is it obligated to?
"This makes sense" is preferable to "We must, to please X group".
- User banned one week, downplaying lack of LGBTT representation
No not necessarily. Sims and Dragon Age have gay options so no
They are not exclusive games!
This may be the dumbest question I have ever seen on the forums. Microsoft doesn't have to and shouldn't pander to groups of any kind. We are gamers, it doesn't matter if we are straight, part of the LGBTQ+ community, our skin colour doesn't matter. None of it matters we are gamers first and foremost and that is what I care about.
@zeggelaar: I agree, developers should stop putting white people in games this panders to white people.
They should stop including men-women romance because it panders to straight people.
They should, also, stop putting sexy women since this panders to males.
You know what? Developers shouldn't put anything in games anymore, since you're always pandering to someone.

Every game that has ever been made is pandering to a group. So, the bold is a silly statement.
Naughty Dog puts gay characters in their games in 2013 and 2018 and cows lose their minds over how progressive Sony is?
You could be gay in the Xbox exclusive Fable in 2004. Boom /close thread
Nintendo wins though. they put a trans woman (Birdo) in Super Mario Bros 2 in 1988
@gamer_lover:
Mate, seriously, I am not one to go around accusing people of "pandering" or any of that stuff. I am a rather creative type myself in my spare time, so I know I would rather have creative freedom to write characters and stories about them as I choose without being accused of pandering to or excluding anyone. Neither are ever my intention.
So with that perspective in mind, I don't give a flying rodent's backside about a fictional character's ethnicity, sexuality or any other -ities - just as long as their creators do something interesting with them.
