"Live services" games that don't celebrate homosex month

Post by rusty_shackleford »

I've stopped patronizing old games that have decided to celebrate so-called 'pride month'. As many of them seem to do it(even games like Everquest and Old School Runescape do it…), how about games that don't celebrate homosex month?
Bonus points if they also don't sell homosex microtransactions(*** flags, etc.,)
  • Path of Exile. I see no evidence they celebrate homosex month.
  • Ultima Online, with a BUT. They are owned by EA, and EA is a big homosex supporter.
  • Villagers & Heroes
  • Final Fantasy XI — Developer & Publisher Square Enix celebrates "Pride Month", however.
  • Jagex's new CEO canceled its 2025 pride event in both versions of Runescape.

@rusty_shackleford, I swear I saw couple of videos on youtube that mention that ultima online servers were shutdown and only private servers are left. Please, clarify me this story.

Final Fantasy XI
Final Fantasy XIV but now has dangerhairs on the localization team and the plot has been gradually moving towards the globalist agenda for the past half decade.

When did EQ start doing this? I haven't played it in several years, is it somewhat recent?

Don't know, but they do. Probably when the disgusting chinkoid took over, I guess. Or the womyn before it. Womyn love pushing gay ****(…heh…)

I doubt it has much to do with that as I've documented Tencent's excessive funding of pozz in western video games prior.

I depends on whether said pozz is solely for the redhaired western devils or if it is enjoyed by the highest echelons of the vanguard party, comrade.

No it isn't. You have to connect on their servers or you get no game to play at all.
It has zero offline functionality. Like the game won't even boot without a connection.
That's live service to a T.

I saw @Finarfin mention Villagers & Heroes, checked their site and they explicitly said "Merry Christmas". Dug a bit more and it seems they don't celebrate homosex month at all.

I think the people that are loyal and still play this are not into the homosex and mentally ill ****. If I still like this game well after maybe 10-20 hours I might play it regularly, since I just want a laidback experience and not games where endgame is button mashing, perfect placement of players and other stuff where a single mistake is fatal, although I do not know what the endgame here even is. I only know that you are a hero and a villager in the sense that going on adventurers and collecting materials means that you can go home to your village and do gardening or be a rancher.

Late reply, but official UO is still operating, they actually launched an alternative take on those 'fresh start' servers by having it go its own way instead of trying to relive memories.

Path of Exile seems to avoid it, at least from what I've seen. Ultima Online could be another option, though keep in mind EA owns them now.

Surprising addition: Fagex's new CEO canceled pride month this year(2025). Will keep an eye on this to see how it goes.

Thanks. I will give my shekels to these games. I think path of exile is on my list anyway.

Mihoyo - a Chinese company - does not drape rainbow flags on their sites or in their games. Their three main games here in the West - Genshin Impact, Honkai Star Rail, and Zenless Zone Zero - have no nonsense. Doesn't stop redditors from declaring Dilluc and Kaeya are gay, or Raiden Shogun and Yae Miko as being gay, or Bronya and Seele as being gay, etc.

The Neverwinter MMO doesn't do Pride Month. Instead what they have is the "Protector Jubilee" which just celebrates the anniversary of the games servers going live. To me it was shocking to see a game licensed by WoTC not do a Pride event.

If Im not mistaken Hunt Showdown doesnt have any such nonsense.

Chinese gachas have already been mentioned. I think you can add at least some Korean games as well. I dont remember Lost Ark having **** like this.

Warhammer games from Fatshark do not do it.

Basically any russian made online game doesnt have it - War Thunder, Caliber, Crossout, etc.
