Title: Games with gay subtext
Post by: The Sceneman on November 12, 2007, 12:08:59 AM
Lets discuss them becuase I want to play them. Im picking up Enchanted Arms shortly as I hear the main character is a transsexual. RE4 is loaded with innuendo, homoerotica (the Krauser knife fightcutscene  :-X) and the Wii edition topped everything off with heavy jerkin. What other titles am I missing?

Pls dont post anything nsfw in this thread kthx

EA main character is not a transsexual.

it's his friend, Makoto who is in love with Touya (another friend).

The main character is not transsexual, but one of his best friends is. Enchanted Arms is probably the best one out there right now. Close second is FFX, but you've probably played that?

sadly, yes  :(

The piano teacher in the Japanese version of Phantasy Star II is openly gay!
(http://phantasystarwiki.com/images/7/77/Ustvest.gif)
He charges male characters 2,000 meseta for lessons and female characters 5,000. In the English version he states that men are simply smarter and require less training.

Supposedly there are hints that Ike & Soren from Fire Emblem PoR and RD are gay.  It's pretty obvious who is on top and who is on bottom.

The lead character of Growlanser II has a serious lisp.
Paul Phoenix is supposedly gay, too.

I don't know how the saxaphone playing character in Enchanted Arms could be considered gay subtext.   It's more like balls in your face, leather chaps and moustaches, swishing around gay.  I think it's directly implied.

That being said, what about the merchants from Shadow Hearts?  Definately some more Enchanted Arms-style subtext going on there.
