How is this to this day the only well written gay character in video games?

There is nothing well written about new vegas

A gay talking tree is the best character in Pyre because his character isnt defined by being gay its defined by being a history professor.

He mentions he’s a fag a total of like 3 times the only tolerable homos are the ones you can forget they’re gay

But was he even gay or just asexual?

I really wanted there to be more interactions between companions, especially Arcade and Veronica because they're exact opposites

I would argue that Veronica is actually better. Arcade's gayness is just kinda there in the background doing nothing, which is fair enough, but Veronica's sexuality adds to her character without being her defining character trait. Her whole thing is that she's disenfranchised with the Brotherhood's traditions, and one of those traditions caused her to be separated from her girlfriend. Yet she doesn't hold that incident up as THE reason why she hates the Brotherhood's direction, she genuinely wants them to change because they're her family and that was just one more symptom of the problem that personally and directly affected her.

Arcade Gannon is one of the most bland and boring and forgettable characters of all time fuck you OP

hey UHHHHHHHHH IT'S TONY PRINCE

>opposites
What? They're both snarky and idealistic and homosexual. The organizations they belong to are opposites, but they themselves are very similar.

You can be asexual and still fall in love with someone.

For all Fallout 4's issues, I really loved those little back-and-forths your companions will have with each other when you swap them out.

Is it humourous or sad that a well written gay character is just a normal character that you can only find out is gay by digging?

Gannon is anything but idealistic.

Are we really gonna have this debate again?

Didn't he rape Merryl? Or did he just get some FOXHOUND grunts to do it for him?

They are also both worthless companions too.

Because his sexuality isnt the defining aspect of his character. If, when you're writing a character, the most interesting about them is who they choose to fuck, you have failed at writing that character.

Because figuring out he is gay requires either your character to be gay or for you to actually care about him

Yeah, unless they're straight. That's fine.

>he can't think of a way to write a character's informative aspect into his own dilemma

Let's be real here, next to Boone and ED-E, every other companion is worthless

>Enclave-BoS
Except Arcade doesn't subscribe to Enclave values AT ALL. In fact this is a similarity because Veronica also disagrees with her faction's values.
>Gay-Lesbian
This is a meaningless distinction because you could just as easily say it's a similarity since homosexuality is the opposite of heterosexuality.
>Blonde-Brunette
lol, really?
>Brains-Brawn
Veronica is an engineer. She is also brainy.
>Long rang-Shirt range
Okay, this one is correct, but what the fuck does it have to do with their personalities?
>Energy weapons-Unarmed weapons
This is literally what you just said on the previous line
>Nerd-Tomboy
Both are nerds. See the brains/brawn line.
>City boy-Homeless girl
FINALLY you've got SOMETHING that I can accept. Congratulations.

imagine having any companion except ED-E
