She would have a boyfriend in the latest trailer and we would have less concern trolls. The end.
I think you took this thread too seriously. Maybe I am mistaken, but I getting really big trollish vibes from this thread. This could not be taken seriously, at least on this page. If anyone cares if Ellie is a gay person, he/she needs to find help.....

Oh ya that too.

Shit I wanna first person sex scene in Cyberpunk
I wanna see a big strong man on top of me... I mean my character

Can you imagine the meltdowns folks would have?

Well Cyberpunk allows you to choose your relationship so I'm pretty sure it would be possible. I mean you could be a straight woman or gay man in mass effect and dragon age, but the games never forced you down that path. That's something I'd be interested in seeing, a "AAA" game where the protagonist only has a relationship with a man, like If Lost legacy actually had Chloe in her own relationship the way Drake has Elena.

Probably the perception that games never make you play as a heterosexual woman, it's either a gay woman or a functionally asexual woman. Not sure if Naughty Dog is the right target though sense their last game had a heterosexual female protagonist.
Yep. A female protagonist will never has a heterosexual relationship with a male. Too icky for gamers I guess.

I thought it was a semi-serious, poking-fun-at-ridiculous-outrage thread and I responded seriously.

I didn't mean for "the end" I said to be hostile, I meant it as in "it's not like the story would change because she was straight.

I've also seen a lot of carefully constructed posts about how a lot of people "are not homophobes but are worried that her sexuality will affect the quality of the writing etc etc". You know, concern trolling.

Dude, it won't affect nothing. Just type in the "Last of Us" in PornHub, those guys don't care.

"bro I'm not crossing a city to make up with you, we're just like two straight great friends which means we keep each other at arms lengths at most."
Yeah sure, if the dudebro vibe is what you want to make of it... I'm pretty confident people generally do more crazy things for people they are in love with than for just friends. Perhaps not Ellie though.
