I actually haven’t played it (it’s sitting in my Geek Room but I haven’t had time to play anything), but I don’t mind a gay couple in any form of media at all.  I just don’t know anything about these two.  Are they actually a good pair?  Because there seems to be different kinds of “different couples,” the ones who feel really genuine and the ones there just for the sake of having something different.  I really like couples where the main focus isn’t, “Oh it’s the gay couple,” it’s just another couple, you know?  Same with characters as a whole.  

There was a really cool post on tumblr about Storm being black, but how we we’re all like, “wow she’s awesome,” instead of being like, “Oh yeah it’s the black lady in X-Men,” so I really like when a story can do that  :)  Though I suppose with these two they’ll be “the gay couple,” but I kinda get it because this game wasn’t brought to the U.S., wasn’t one of the reasons because of its content?  It’s kinda a big deal that there was a gay option back when this game was made, right?  It wasn’t like it is now, where like, you can have a gay couple in Mass Effect or Dragon Age and it’s like, “yeah that’s a thing sure,” it was like, “WHOA THAT’S A THING YOU CAN DO?!"
