Yeah, it's always impressive to see people remain rational about their opinions.

I would like to see this:

Dude 1: Be careful... I... I'd hate to see anything happen to you, man.
Dude 2: I know. I... I also...
Chick 1: Oh jeez, get a room you two!

I wouldn't like to see this:

Dude 1: Be careful, I'm gay and I think you're hot.
Dude 2: Really? I'm ALSO gay!
Chick 1: How cool! Gayness is such a good thing! We should all wave rainbow flags to celebrate diversity!

You see, there IS such a thing as tastefully done, and there is also such a thing as overkill.

On the other hand, the running joke on the internet is that characters in Final Fantasy are gay anyway (I think this is only supposed to refer to Tidus and Zidane, POSSIBLY Squall, but that's it). "They look like they were rejected from a Final Fantasy game for being too gay, and that says something." Maybe the FF fan base is ready for it after all.
