Are there going to be LGBT characters in diablo 4?

What about the D2R Amazon?

That’s not what being trans is. It’s more about gender identity than about the biological body. Anyway, I don’t think primal evils have genders :v

People just want to have fun playing the game, they have too many real world problems than worrying about some pixels.

Fail troll…

The Roman empress Elagabalus preferred to be called a woman and wanted sex reassignment surgery. As long ago as 2500 BC, there were records of transgender priests in Sumer and the Akkadian Empire. Accounts of them continue throughout history. Transgenderism is not a modern construct.

In midieval europe, homosexuality was indeed socially unacceptable in most areas; but this is largely tied to the influence of Christianity which doesn’t exist in the Diablo universe.

All in all however, this is a fantasy game. LGBT people are certainly more realistic than demons invading from hell. If your suspension of disbelief can take you past that, it can certainly tolerate a few LGBT people.

Is this your buddy or you whit another profile?

Hey there. Just to try and cut the thread short : almost everyone would be ok with some GRSM character(s) being in Diablo 4, but it’s not something that should be forced in it.
Diablo 3 already fails at properly delivering a cohesive story, so I think it would be better to focus our energy into making sure that they deliver one properly in Diablo 4, rather than to try to force stuff in it, which may lead to an even worse narration.
Now, if I were you, I wouldn’t worry too much about GRSM representation issues, as Blizzard is already quite conscious about those issues.
Now can we please all agree to let this topic die? The thread has a terrible title that frames the matter in a manner that invites to negative answers instead of a proper discussion on the matter. Or rename the thread in a manner that invites to positive discussion. But as is, it’s not surprising that there’s so much negative responses to the thread.

It’s because it is a ridiculous topic that has absolutely zero bearing on the game. What does the OP want? A Pride Parade marching through New Tristam?

A thousand times this. They had a once in a lifetime chance with Azmodan, but they really dropped the ball here. He’s the lord of sin for crying out loud, but his entire shtick is having poop all over his realm. Most disappointing demon lord ever.

What about “I don’t provide you with any other scapegoat that you could suspect to be me” Belial, lord of easily-seen-through lies?

Hmm
He had his own kink with Cydea …

Ok this is a troll post answering to this thread, a similar asking for space goats poped up. I like how the community works on to make this post irrelevant. And before i got baned, flaged, bashed what ever im not against LBGTQ. But i hate LBGTQ members who try to force their agenda in to everything.

According to Wiki, LGBT demographics in the U.S. is about 4%. If you identify as LGBT, fine. More power to you. But, if 95% of potential D4 players do not identify as LGBT, then it would be a hard sell for developers to justify putting resources into making one character LGBT.

how do we know the sexual orientation of any diablo 3 character?

In one thing he was right.
It´s nothing new and as old as mankind is.
In Greek Culture they where even honored to some extend, coz other Man´s had less competition, when it came to the Ladys
Nearly every Slave in History was used to please the whole Family
And so on and so on


Nontheless
All this doesnt belong into a Game, wich Fokus lies in bashing and slaying Demons.

Otherwise where are the fat and ugly Charakters.
Can´t be, that everyone is so slim and trained, thats Fatshaming XD
Lulz
And there everyone else in the World is just Facepalming over the Americans

Whats next ?

Where is he fat, instead of bulky ?
Fat is more like Greed, Ghom or Azmo …

So … fat = evil ? :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:
-.-

So
You are against Cat-Girls ?

We’re getting there wait your turn patiently😆

Now he’s beefy. He’s been called fat and fat shamed since the 2019 reveal.

I have no comment on cat-girls. Still no one is petitioning for anything. The OP, as trollish as they have been, was just asking a question.

IF i remember correctly, but i maybe not, blizz said all characters will have a male and female version. But if not its only fair for the druid to be male only, if the sorceress is going to be female only
