Yes it will be because progress will never be stiffled by conservative oppression.
All I can say is if they make it so that the characters are guys that happen to be gay, I'll buy it. If they end up being flamers, I will boycott Square for life.
Many thanks Christmas!
Horniest Member, 2007! Gimme a little unf unf!
Well, I just posted an erotic picture for all the homosexuals in my avatar
But Christiantitiy is 85% of America, and they oppose even ACCEPTING it, one site (http://www.tencommandments.org) said homosexuality is the equivlent of murder and should met with death... (ermm... talk about overdoing it). Black People were never mentioned in the bible to be oppressed and while women are said to be oppressed but the subject was simply not brought up for some reason...
omg, conservative oppression? I just lost some respect for you for calling it that, you really think they're being opressed? Don't even try and compare it to women's rights, or slavery with blacks, it's not even close. They have it so much better if this is oppression for them. Blacks were slaves, no rights. Women had a number of rights and were definitely human beings, they had it better than blacks, but they couldn't vote and a few other things too. Homosexuals... let's see, they can't get married.... is there anything else? I don't think homosexuals are being opressed. Though, it'd be interesting if Square made the game so that homosexuals were in slavery, and they revolted and that's the basis of the game. Now THAT would be interesting...

Ummm...off topic but women were not consider people in Canada until the Peoples case that went to the JCPC *forgets date* Before then women were not considered people.
"They had it better than blacks." What little respect I had for you has just flown out the window as well. I believe you have no idea what you are talking about and misunderstand your own sub-conscious manifestations of racism and discrimination. "Blacks?"
The situation with homosexuality is EXTREMELY similar to African American oppression and sexism against women. It is pure and simple conservative OPPRESSION by the religious right and political traditionalist to control the freedoms of individuals. Homosexuals are constantly barraged with verbal and physical insults in daily society. If you had been paying attention to the news, you will have known that just recently an individual opened fire in a gay bar, killing and injuring several individuals. This is just one example of continued conservative oppression which has caused a fanatical person to take action against someone else's freedom.
You are attempting to oversimplify a complex situation by stating that the only thing homosexuals cannot do is get married. You can say the same thing about slavery through the comment "Slavery was ok because the only thing African Americans were missing was their freedom. Otherwise, they were just fine."
You say "women had a number of rights and were definitely human beings." Are you implying that homosexuals are not human beings? Your discrimination is not going to stifle individuals from being free. Homosexuals are here to stay and will only grow and influence society to a greater degree in the future. If you don't like other people from having their freedom, then move out of general society and be a hermit. Conservative oppression has ALWAYS been defeated in the past, and your kind of racism and discrimination will also be crushed in the face of individual FREEDOM in the years to come.
As an attempt to save this thread I made a topic in Eyes on Eachother. http://forums.eyesonff.com/showthrea...45#post1535045
Please continue the Argument there so that the topic of this thread can continue.
The publics reaction? The game would be rejected imho.
For myself, if there happened to be a gay relationship in a ff, I wouldnt mind. If the game was about the gay relationship, I probably wouldnt buy it.
There has never been a Final Fantasy game where the focus of the story was a romantic relationship. I doubt this would change if the relationship just happened to be a homosexual one.
Well, just so you know... looking at my avatar will turn any straight man gay!

I personally wouldn't care what sort of relationship was in the game, I'd buy if it looked like a good game, if it didn't, I wouldn't, the type of relationship in it wouldn't affect my decision.
As for Brokeback Mountain, I think it has been hyped up a bit because of the "different" relationship in it, because that's the only thing I've heard about the film really. I think I would like to see it though, because friends have said it is good, and I like the actors in it.
And, personally, I think that it is a disgrace that in this day and age people can still discriminate against homosexuals! I am a Christian, and I understand many other Christians believe gay people to be sinners and bad people, but I do not. I believe that everybody should be treat the same regardless of their age, gender, skin colour or sexual preference. Also, I realise how much my views look like they've just been stolen from a website on equality, but yeah
you are insane. I called them Blacks, so I'm racist. African Americans is a politically correct term. Hell, that means I have to be referred to as Caucasian. I'm white, plain and simple. And you're the one to oversimplify what I said. I said "African Americans" had it far worse that Women, and Women had it worse than Homosexuals. That's the problem. Homosexuals are acting like they have it nearly as bad as these people did in the past. THEY DON'T. I never said I had a problem with Homosexuals. I'm not racist or prejudice. They're fine, they can exist, they can live normal lives, they can be here with heterosexuals. I think diversity is what makes this country I live in great. You realize Abraham Lincoln was conservative. You compare extremist to everyday conservatives, and that's just wrong. I'm not calling you a psycho Michael Moore am I?
You know what, they should make a homosexual game. Just to shut people up, I look forward to it.
