"The way we did it is exactly how something like this should be done," director Daniel Vávra says.

The game has just been nominated for two Gayming Magazine Awards due to its (optional) gay romance.

“TRIGGER WARNING,” the post begins. “Among all the various awards and nominations we’ve received, we’ve also just been nominated for the @gaymingmag GAYMING AWARDS! I’m really proud of that, because I absolutely stand by the fact that the way we did it is exactly how something like this should be done. Non-coercively, naturally, and educationally (because we show how things really were in the Middle Ages without idealizing them)–and without shoving it down anyone’s throat or trying to re-educate them like so many titles that are rightfully called ‘woke’ these days. We made the gay community happy and gave them the CHOICE to be themselves, just like we did for others in other choices and quests, and anyone who isn’t interested probably didn’t even notice. Except, of course, for [a] very small and very loud minority.”

    LOL no, “woke” is anything that acknowledges LGBT+ individuals exist and have a right to live their lives as they want is woke.

    OK, body type 2. My experience is that it is a slippery slope, and every time something is accepted, some weird Tumblrite-type comes out the woodworks with a new need; want; requirement. - it’s never-ending. It’s fucking weird, and I’ve turned non-accepting over the years.

    Does that mean that MMIWG2SLGBTQQIA+ peoples are all evil devils? Obviously not. But I’m not kowtowing to a tiny minority that wants the majority to make way for them, in places where it’s really not needed, nor wanted. I just wanted to play videogames.
