  • As a Warframe sicko:

    The only gay sex is implied between two people in a really beautiful and totally toxic as fuck relationship (... when you type it out... that is peak gay). That said, you play as a mechanically genderfluid character who, as of the 1999 update, actually has dialogue that more or less confirms that they also identify that way.

    And the recently added romance system (Sadly only culminates in a New Year's Kiss), like most modern games not written by chuds, just lets you get with whoever you wanna get with (look up Eleanor's tongue...).

    Rest is pretty spot on to the point that it is increasingly rare for a new story quest to not have a content warning or two ahead of it (and the story of how they got to Jade Shadows is almost as beautiful as the quest itself). ALthough I do take issue with "beat the main villain with the power of love"

    But yeah. Warframe is fucking good. And DE have handled the various Gamer attacks over the years really well. I'll always be bothered by when Arena Net threw one of their writers and staff under the bus for not placating the "Have you considered having choice in your dialogue? I know you are a stupid woman but try harder" crowd. Whereas there was a similar push against DE to fire a few devs/community managers. To my knowledge, the only outcome was DE telling "Misan" that she should probably change her username which... fair play.

    And when other studios and teams tiptoe around LGBTQ stuff? DE makes it front and center as a way to contrast the kind of monster who would experiment on animals and people and cause endless suffering with the kind of man who truly loves his partner and wants to protect him from... him.
