IF THIS GAME HAD A GAY ROMANCE, WHO WILL YOU DATE?

Who will you date if this game had gay romance optns? Let's image Persona 5 had a gay romance you uld date everyone and make both straight and gay harem.

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? The two unnamed men are the only explicly gay characters the game:.

They are effemative gay men, who are basilly preyg on the nocent straight mor Ryuji. The game lets you rpond wh a joke rponse to Ryuji that he has to basilly ’man up’ agast the unmanly gay men.

The boys manage to pe, and the two gay men are never referenced directly the game aga, unls you go out of your way to talk to them Shju, where they make remarks about another male character who is still a mor. This is basilly yet another example of a very troublome trope wily known as "All Gays are Pedophil".

This showg this game is pecially bad due to the two characters beg the only two fely gay men Tokyo Protagonist will teract wh. The ia that ”All gay men are sexual predators, huntg for pecially mors/children” is pecially troublg due to how this stereotype about gay men is actively ed as a reason to abe and hunt Gay mory Rsia pecially.

The group is said to equate homosexualy to pedophilia, and is also alleged to target gay men and subject them to siar abive treatment. So is worryg and harmful to see the game e this very damagg stereotype towards gay men, pecially this se where the two characters are the only explicly gay men the whole game.
