sometimes people just choose whatever the speech check is
i didnt know the confirmed bachlor perk in new vegas was making me gay i just took it for the damage buff and new dialogue options ๐
"Confirmed Bachelor" is a popular euphemism dating back to at least the 19thC, but especially common in the 1950s (from where Fallout gets a lot of its aesthetic).
yeah i was 12 when i played it
I'm not judging you personally, but in the wider context of the thread that game has a ESRB Mature 17+ / PEGI 18 rating for all the stuff in there that's way worse than being a bit fruity
I dont know, American ratings are stupid.
I can totally see gay romance ranking a game higher on the age charge than all the blood, dismemberment, gore, etc.
spider-man 1 or 2 had an easter egg where you could get mary jane to kiss herself. they had to remove it because it was going to bump the rating up to mature for the lesbian kissing
Doesnt surprise me in the least.
