Topic	Which characters do you think were "queer coded" in video games?
Robot2600 07/07/21 10:41:30 AM #19:	It's not really queer coding in video games as much as stereotyping femme gay men and all-around general queer-baiting. There are actually reasons to think Samus is trans, based off some comments by the developer who later rolled it back. Regardless if she is or isn't "officially" trans, she's still become a trans icon for some people. Similar to Poison (Street Fighter) who is sometimes trans, sometimes not, and officially given different backgrounds in different hemispheres (which is bullshit). Velvet in Tales of Berseria is almost coded as bisexual, but it's only in the beginning and really falls more into queer-baiting as well. EDIT: Lucca is coded as bi-curious. Ayla is just bi. --- Marvel presents Marvel Marvel's The Marvels <cite>Robot2600 posted [p:955833517] in Which char...
