the Pokemon fandom is usually almost as bad as the Sonic fandom

It'd be a shame if those two came together with other terrible fandoms because of a major gaming crossover, to create an even more terrible one...

 

[Cutie Gwen]

I don't know, but I do know that I've seen exactly one confirmed incel on the Splatoon subreddit, and that was because that subreddit is so well behaved normally that when someone started trolling another person looked at their post history and it turned into horrified rubbernecking. Dude shaved his girlfriend's cat as some kind of revenge for something.

But then the Splatoon fandom is usually really good and the Pokemon fandom is usually almost as bad as the Sonic fandom, so that might uh

That might explain something.

All I know about Splatoon fans is that they're VERY accepting of LGBT people and make memes like "GENDER IS A MYTH CREATED BY THE CHURCH TO STOP YOU FROM EATING THE COMMUNION WAFERS"

No one incident in particular, but just something I've noticed in general.

Like, it's so weird too.

I admit I've never spent time there, but...ain't really seeing it off a casual glance?

Didn't exactly scroll to the bottom anywhere or anything, Iunno. Maybe **** sinks.

That or you're in literally all the purest areas of Reddit other than this one and I genuinely envy you for it.

Kind of reminds me when Magneto killed Red Skull with just his bear hands

magneto is neither big nor hairy

It'd be a shame if those two came together with other terrible fanbases because of a major gaming crossover, to create an even more terrible fanbase...

And it would be even worse if there were, perchance, a website created specifically to talk about said crossover containing all of these fanbases.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

magneto is neither big nor hairy

He's a top and gay, close enough

 

[ZephyrZ]

Okay but why are there a disproportionate amount of incels on the Pokémon sub compared to every other subreddit I read?

I just took a look to see what you may have brought this on and it took me less then a minute to find a user called "Gorgeous-Incel", and based on their comment they didn't seem to be being ironic either. Yikes.

these are important distinctions, gwen

I find the term 'confirmed incel' amusing. Is there a specific set of criteria? Is it like a checklist? Or is it more a general depravity and state of mind?

Did something in particular happen or is this just a general thing? And should I dare checking?

hrrrmhmm took the kids karen has

pay child support i will not

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

Better question: Why isn't Life Will Change in the game

Because While Life will change is good, Time To Make History is better

Another question, Where is Shadow World. Cross Tag Battle had in and that is a chill song

Hmmm. LGBT options in Splatoon 3 perhaps?

When are we going to get a game about an LGBT character? It doesn’t have to be about that struggle. Just that’s who they are as a person. Like, just because Hat Kid is female doesn’t mean A Hat in Time is about Women’s Rights.

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

Spoiler: P5 spoilers

Because it spoils the last boss like you just did?

So did Our Beginning. they are basically the same song

Yeah, you'd love the Splatoon fandom, they're probably the single most accepting fandom I've seen at least from a cursory view of the subreddit, Tumblr (like, Tumblr is generally more LGBT friendly than most sites but the Splatoon fandom is REALLY LGBT friendly to the point where one of the most popular comics partially centers around a character that the writer insists is referred to as they/them), and the constant stream of LGBT acceptance memes literally every couple of weeks in-game.

All that ink must really come in handy for painting rainbows.

I mean, Corrin is a bi icon. And I'm sure there might be other games with LGBT protagonists I can't remember off the top of my head.
But yeah, more would be nice.

while we do have a bit of gay rep, it's mostly kept to smaller indie projects

kinda wish there were more explicitly gay mcs in bigger triple-a titles yeah

 

[Cutie Gwen]

Corrin may be a disastrous bi but that's not a good example to recommend

 

[Coricus]

Posting on incel subreddits and ranting about how all women are evil incarnate is a pretty good tell.

Yes this guy did both of those things. Was almost kind of hilarious in a sad sort of way.

 

[Metal Shop X]

Yo gamers, can we talk how Omega is a amazing dancer?

corrin is bi but also incestual so that cancels out the iconicness

 

[Gentlepanda]

tfw both the LGBT romance options in fates are the two creepy-ass "i would **** you even if you were a table" characters

not the best look

I still say the perfect place to start is more Lesbian, Gay, Bixexual, and Trans characters in fighting games like Street Fighter, Mortal Kombat, Tekken, and SoulCalibur. Those games are all about huge, diverse, ensemble casts.

Niles is actually a cool ass character

tharja 2.0 Im not sure about because I barely remeber her and I think she was birthright

You both have good points to which I have no way to contest but I'm gonna dig my hole deep underground and continue to insist I'm right because my pride will refuse to acknowledge I was wrong.

Cos Detective Pikachu is pushing that gosh dang ess jayy doubleyouuu propaganda

Srsly though I've seen people posting stuff to this effect and I'm not sure what planet they're living on

I know, no one can do the shuffle like he does.

His face isn't close to his arm, so logically, I say no.


But since this thread make no sense, sure, why not?

Umm... not sure you wanna use Corrin as an example here.

Especially if you wanna promote good LGBT protagonists.

Arcsys needs to get us the RWBY fighter because half of the titular cast are gay then

What are you talking about? We went from Gaypril to Gay a few days ago

OK, I want to kill myself right now.

Now my sleep-deprived self is trying to imagine what a bald Shadow would look like.

Aaaaand now I'm imagining what a bald CG Sonic would look like.


Welp, that mental image may have just killed whatever chance I had left of getting sleep tonight.
