BoardsPersona 5So, Is anyone makg a P5 gay mod? Saturn_ogurt 6 years ago#8No, as a woman/gay man you're not allowed to have anythg ever- Swap God for a janor, rot a jar of dog paws -Put a pch of sage your boots, and all day long a spicy scent is your reward.
However, one improved aspect that we'd love to see this new release is the cln of gay romance optns the game. The crique namely stems om two namels recurrg characters throughout the game -- two openly gay men, who pop up perdilly var lotns, cludg the beach and Shju. They check the box of every major gay stereotype: they're effemate, drs flamboyantly wh patterned shirts and hats, and sentially prey upon Joker and Ryuji, even gog so far as to say thgs like "I'm gog to eat you up!
" The scen -- which arguably feel credibly out-of-place the game to beg wh -- propagate the already harmful stereotype of predatory gay men. Therefore, this new and ostensibly improved versn of Persona 5, the soon-to-be released Persona 5 Royal should remove the stereotypil characters and add gay romance optns to the game.
PERSONA 5 ROYAL SHOULD DIAL UP THE GAY
It wouldn't be a huge difference to add gay romance to the game. In the base versn of Persona 5, Ryuji is reluctantly taken by two gay men and ’s played off as a joke. Persona 5 Royal’s fix to this was the two gay men forcg Ryuji to do drag stead of what was origally implied, but that’s still not great.
The velopers acknowledged an terview that a ntroversial scene the origal Persona 5 picted two of the game’s only gay characters as predators, and that they knew didn’t go over well wh many of the game’s fans. In the origal Persona 5, a pair of unnamed gay men approach the character Ryuji unprompted durg a mandatory -game vis to Shju. It’s a eply unsettlg and unnecsary scene that pats the game’s only two visibly gay men as predators, and the whole suatn is played off as a joke.
In Persona 5 Royal, the two gay men are no longer unnamed; they troduce themselv as Angel and Julian (or Julie, if you’re “feelg scy”). The punchle is now “isn’t funny that the gay men ma a boy wear women’s cloth, spe the fact that they were clearly makg him unfortable, ” stead of the prev joke that was based on the punchle of “isn’t the implied implied threat of sexual asslt, or even rape, hilar? Was my therapist gay or trans?
