I once searched for the gay tag but blocked some straight content* options (since you can only exclude 10 tags max) and the end result was literally only 10 pages instead of 21. The amount of straight porn I've had to see when looking for gay games is astonishing and extremely disappointing. Makes me wonder why some devs even put in gay scenes at all if the straight ones aren't also avoidable since I doubt that straight players are going out of their way to find gay content (since all "gay-inclusive" games have the same "is gay avoidable" comment that always gets replied to with a yes).
*I also excluded tags with sissification since the person that gets "sissified" just ends up as a trans woman which makes it straight again
Oh God THIS!
Yeah, I've been there. I think a lot of it comes from the games shooting for a Bi audience, rather than strictly a gay one. I'll talk with my programmer and discuss matters further. I can't commit to anything at the moment. I will say that I won't have the gay scenes / routes as tiny or insignificant compared to the hetero ones. They are being worked on with the same care and diligence, and we will try to be as inclusive as possible while still staying true to the vision we have.
And to be clear, the gay content isnt "sissy, femboy, trans fem" etc, it is male on male.
That "Bi audience" part is specially the one I don't understand.
I'm Bi/Pan wahtever you wanna call it myself. And the "sissy, femboy, trans" is not just a turn off for full gay, but many bi like myself. If I want a princes I'll do a woman. If I want a man, I want a man. And most of the bi people or "straight curious" I know are the same. When looking for a guy the they want them "masculine" (oh by the way all the quotes mark "" flying around is because I personally believe many of this terms to be subjective and one never knows what others consider fem, masculine and so on) Anyway. Yeah, heck even if you boot up something like Grindr you'll see a lot of "Bi" "straight" "curious" with the "masculine for masculine" or some similar bs. It's actually rarer to find the ones looking for a fem/sissy/girly looking guy.
However vast majority of games you come up here with a gay tag ignore that. From straight games that add a gay scene that is just a futa or sissy scene. To full gay theme games that either the character you are screwing is practically a girl or you the mc is been sissified or transformed or something along the lines that if there is a gay relation obviously theres gotta be clear fem-boy been completely sodomized by the "man" on the relation. Which is why its such a relief when we find amazing games like Demitransference and so on.
So it is reassuring to read that clarification. And also. Thanks for taking all sides seriously. Because it's equally frustrating when you're in the mood for some gay action. And spend hours on a game only to finish it and realize that the gay tag was for that one time that you more or less did something with what may or may not have been a guy. XD
And I don't mind stright games, or gay games, or in between games. And I also play a couple that have the femboys/tranformation thing going if they are good or entertaining. What really piss me off is looking for something in a game because of a tag and not finding it. I'm just so tire of it.
To end. Good that you are clarifying things from the get go. So even if the content is not there yet we know that it will be. And not waste time on something that will never get there. I'll keep my eye on this one. I love the olympians universe. Looking forward to it.
