Gay Gamers Want Dragon Age 2 Writer Fired
A gay gamer has launched a petition calling on BioWare to fire Firedrake Age 2 lead writer David Gaider – yes, the one who so passionately defended gay romances in games – for disrespectfully stereotyping homosexuals.
This is about as bizarre as it gets. David Gaider, you may recall, fired off a extended, well-worded defense of gay romance options in videogames in response to a Dragon Age 2 player who complained about beingness hit on by male characters and the lack of a "No Homosexuality" alternative in the game. Gaider dismissed the complaint, expression that romances in the game are there for everyone, not just "the accurate male person gamer."
That scored Gaider some serious points, specially among colorful gamers, but information technology turns out that you really can't please all of the people all of the time. So IT is that a self-announced "homosexual playing Dragon Get on 2" has launched a petition calling for Gaider's dismissal because of the way he delineated gays in the plot as "incapable to be normal people and think [nearly] naught merely excite."
"As a homosexual playing Dragon Age 2, I've witnessed the inferior stereotype homophile characters in this spunky. If you refused to clear your moves on a gay character then you are received rivalry points for not wanting to be gay for the character," the petition states. "This is completely wrong, homosexuals do not approach multitude and force out them to candy kiss United States, the person that wrote this game should be laid-off for stereotyping homosexuals in much a disrespectful way, besides as creating the worst authorship in characters, plot and everything else in DA2."
IT's impossible to say whether this is actually a gamer who feels lawfully aggrieved or just another Tuesday troll, but if it is legit, as GayGamer pointed out, it kind of misses the point. "Considering one male fellow does this (Anders) and yet another does not (Fenris), this shows that the 'gays' in the game are capable of being average people after all," the site wrote. "They are capable of flirting and not flirting. You know, as people do."
At last count, the petition to fire Gaider has 208 signatures, putting it neck-and-neck with some other, newer petition filed in support of him. Not that he has much to worry about anyway; if anything, this is just Sir Thomas More validation that people are citizenry, regardless of their intersexual proclivities – and that sometimes, mass are stupid.
