do all you guys shitting on dream daddy even realize what you’re doing? it’s a gay dating simulator with racially diverse characters that doesn’t reduce any of them to stereotypes, one of the dads is trans, and you yourself can be a trans man. there’s even an option for whether your previous partner was male or female. not to mention that the game was written, illustrated, and created by LGBT artists. this game is a pretty damn big step forward, which means the media is gonna be watching it closely.

and you know what they’re seeing? they’re seeing the internet explode over a piece of fanart and making the artist apologize even after she got fucking death threats, along with accusations of the game being problematic because of some of the paths, the “cult ending” (which has been debunked) and the fact that the game grumps helped produce it. so now articles about the game are turning from positive reviews to this:

(links to all three articles)

this gives the impression that creating LGBT and racially diverse content will result in harassment and making such content is a bad idea, which means less support for other diverse forms of media and future media like this getting turned down.

you’re not “calling out a transphobe uwu” or “pointing out the game grumps are bad uwu.” you’re taking away support for any future games like dream daddy and coming off as a huge asshole. so get off your goddamn high horse and shut the fuck up.

Yep. People aren’t going to want to create because of shit like this. You assholes are stifling creators! They ain’t gonna want to create for your dumbasses!
