CAN YOU BE GAY THIS GAME?
Civil partnerships weren’t yet legal the UK, let alone gay marriage, and wir acknowledgement and support for transgenr people was virtually non-existent, the virtrl of the current climate repalced wh ignorance and apathy.
It was a bold step forward at the time, yet retrospect is still led wh a surroundg homophobia that is damagg to the progrsn is tryg so sperately to claim as s own. Unlike the straight relatnships Fable, which often feel like they’re g om the heart, gay romanc appear to be viewed om a farcil perspective.
I suppose when society self wasn’t acceptg of gay marriage upon the game’s ial arrival, a rpectful portrayal of such ncepts weren’t on the mds of a velopment team who were tryg to create a world that felt both fahful and fantastil. Gay men realy aren’t always makg jok about how they’re bummg all of the time and are jt a uple of blok on the banter tra. Ltle Bra was still airg at the time, which is a pafully bigoted show that openly mocks gay men, transgenr women, and pretty much everyone who wasn’t a whe guy.
