STAR WARS: THE OLD REPUBLIC AND S NEW ‘GAY PLA’
Jt like the tle says. I was readg through ments on Facebook and I see a number of, "Gay Pla" ments. At first I thought people were jt beg snarky but there are que a few of them. What are they talkg about? There's a gay pla? * swtor gay planet *
Peril of the Pk Pla BWare wants to take you to a gay bar.
Or rather, a gay pla. Star Wars: The Old Republic is beg updated to clu a rather elegant solutn to s lack of gay characters — a pla lled Makeb where all the homosexual elements of the galaxy n be found. Gay players now feel like a gated afterthought, while homophob are spewg their pathetilly predictable outrage at havg to share the vastns of space wh some gay people.
While BWare’s tchg a lot of heat om all rners, and the ia of a sgle pla hog all the gay elements of the universe across as alienatg and jt pla weird, I fd hard to be totally mad at the stud here. It’s te that Makeb mak the ia of gay relatnships look more of an afterthought than ever, but most other viogam still stggle wh after-afterthoughts, and you’d be hard prsed to fd many other mastream studs wh a more nsistent track rerd of not beg sh about acknowledgg homosexualy. BWare’s tentns and past rerd don’t make the suatn ol any way, but a world of entertament where “person is gay” is still nsired both a joke and the punchle to the very same joke, feels wrong to pour overwhelmg srn on a stud that’s at least tryg, s own awkward way.

Not sure if anyone else has seen this, but I'm SHOCKED that this wasn't posted by some numb-head n00b on our beloved foms! * swtor gay planet *
Oh, and to the homophob — I hope you fd yourself one day suckg on the biggt penis ever, belongg to a guy drsed up like one of the Canta band. Rise of the Hutt Cartel troduced the game’s first LGBTQ+ characters wh Lemda Avta, a bi woman, and Lord Cytharat, a gay man.
SWTOR'S "GAY PLA" IS BEHD A PAY WALL
It is very possible for a player to choose to leave Cytharat, the game’s only gay man, to die. Cytharat remas the game’s only gay man and there are no romanceable lbians. [Spoiler] Gay Romanc SWTOR.
Some have jokgly dubbed 'pay-to-gay.
The Inter—and hey, maybe even a few players of SWTOR—didn’t like the ia of a lone gay pla.
EA, BWARE FIRE-FIGHTG REACTNS TO SWTOR'S 'GAY GHETTO' PLA
It’s lled Hunt for the Gay Pla, and ’s fun to play (also, NSFW). I was readg through ments on Facebook and I see a number of, "Gay Pla" ments. There's a gay pla?
STAR WARS: THE OLD REPUBLIC’S DIVISIVE GAY PLA
Some news se or other lled Makeb the Gay Pla to get views. There will be gay romance optns available for the storyl on Makeb. Fox News was simply beg Fox News when they extrapolated this to mean that BWare was implementg a "gay pla.
STAR WARS: THE OLD REPUBLIC, THE GAY PLA AND THE PROBLEM OF THE STRAIGHT MALE GAZE
Makeb is the first pla to have same-genr romanc, hence the gay pla ments. I'm not ol wh them seeg gay sex stuff a vio game about Star Wars.
