Have a feeling that they're about to get drowned out by people buying it because people are tired of the ******-****** mafia

I'd say it's a really interesting game. Kinda complex, like a lot of rogue-type games. But you can create legacies/empires it seems. Mass combat, etc. The interface is strange (kind of like the first Soulash). I'm currently playing it, but it hasn't fully clicked for me yet.

Maybe the dev could add a child-molesting mechanic to let gay characters reproduce.

Locking thread because it's leading to arguments and an influx of homophobic trolls. Thanks for raising the issue, u/plaguevictim68, sad though it is to see.
The winds are turning. Remember when the "trolls" were just a few wander-ins from 4chan who could safely be shadow banned and things moved on?

It doesn't work anymore.

Now they have to cope that everything is an orchestrated attack focused on their little nothing community because the amount of people turning against this trash is rising. They need to justify it some other way then "Our ideas arent popular anymore" so it's always Russian Bots or 4chan raids or Brigading.

"I'm not against LGBTQ". Ah but if you don't shove all their **** into your games and bow to their forced pandering, you are. That's how they see it, anyway.
The "tolerance" only goes one way. Because "we must not tolerate the intolerant", aka. It's ok when we do it.

Indeed. I remember when games were games, and didn't have to bend to politics at all.
Shame it got so "mainstream". They probably wouldn't care as much if it was still a hobby of just a handful of reclusive nerds that no-one likes.

A Comment from Reddit:
Also, a fun anecdote, Dwarf Fortress has had LGBT dwarfs and creatures forever. I remember not having enough milk or meat because I had a gay cow in my starting two.
I don't think this is the case, right? I remember that this was only when they made it more modern and on steam. Correct me if I'm wrong, I remember people were angry that somehow ******** and other **** was in their game

I was like that too years ago. Nowadays I am firm believer in the necessity of rounding up all the LGBT freaks and shooting them in the head.

As for the dev, good on him for standing his ground, even though he's one of those mouthbreathing Polish centrists. Remains to be seen if the harassment campaign against him is effective (he is a small dev working on a niche tile), or if being persecuted by sodomites leads to the Streisand effect of more exposure and sales.

Reminder that "the bigots" are the ones who actually play games.
"Modern Audience" doesn't actually exist outside of screaming voices on reddit & tumblr.

Nope, it was like that well before the Steam release. The dev gave all animals a random sexual orientation. ******** have never been in it though.

It was funnily enough a self-fulfilling prophecy; there never was any real hatred for ***** people until after the freaks began to shout and screaming that there was, since it seems that the supply of hate never met the demand. Until now that is. lol

I don't even think the dev is ideologically motivated, he just didn't want other people to tell him how to make his game and put his foot down. Probably some form of high functioning autist who is immune to these kind of pressure campaigns.

A decade or so ago, the mindset of this polish dev would have just been considered "common sense". lol

Though I do believe that not caring about what others do is also the opinion of most average people. It's the noisy freaks the ones that always believe that they have a right to tell others how to live.

The game is not great though.

Still I have reported some of the review bombs that only reference "bigotry" and "homophobia" and ****. Not that Steam will react to that.

I tried the first game and I liked the idea of it but man was it hard to get into. I don't have the patience required, learned to play my fair share of nigh unplayable games already.
