they’re here they’re queer and their
representation matters we might have to
explore the full truth of them later in
private
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’ll
be counting down our picks for the top
10 LGBT characters in videogames it in a
matter of guys or chicks I’m just scared
shitless of being rejected for this list
we’re looking at our favorite videogame
characters who wave their rainbow flags
with pride after much consideration
we’ve decided to only focus on
characters for canonically part of the
LGBT community so the Sims Commander
Shepard or other customizable characters
are out most people in the galaxy still
see us that way while we appreciate the
ability to make these characters have
any sexuality we want we want to look at
characters who are LGBT no matter what
and not just because we say they are
also just to be safe we’re putting up a
spoiler warning number 10
Erica Catherine so did I hear someone
call for me to Catherine’s infidelity a
weird puzzling dream world and sheep the
best thing to see after dealing with
such a mess is the bright smile of this
lovely waitress from the stray sheep
I’ve got a nice pair of stiletto heels I
know how to use as the game goes on
there’s hints to there being a secret
behind the fabulous red lipstick she
wears
especially when Toby loses his virginity
to her her roof the truth is only
revealed in the true ending for
Catherine with a K and we find out that
she used to be a man named Erik the
other guys knew you was Erik back in
school I want my damn feet carpet sorry
but once that hole is punched there’s no
refunds
number nine Anthony Prince aka gay Tony
Grand Theft Auto for The Ballad of Gay
Tony oh hey guys what’s going on
Grand Theft Auto may not be the best in
creating shining examples to live by and
this character is no exception
I don’t over that idiot Evan or the
economy what is cocaine or two pills
which I am NOT taking anymore
but this time I’ve up a club owner who
has fallen from grace via debt cocaine
and abusing prescribed medication often
provided by his boyfriend this once
fabulous man has seen better days
oh look terrible but there’s a certain
charm to him as his ballad goes on
and we definitely have to give him
points for being so proud of his
sexuality that he has gay in his name
all right we gotta go all right ladies
have some fun number eight Steve Cortez
Mass Effect 3
nice to meet you lieutenant what’s going
on even the most badass hero needs some
companionship don’t worry the Mass
Effect franchise has you covered even if
you’re interested in same-sex intimacy
well I like it commander it’s good to
see you cut loose now and then despite
all the options we had to give it to
this Alliance pilot since he isn’t just
gay because of Shepards potential
romantic advances he actually had a
husband who unfortunately died when the
collectors abducted the colony he was
stationed on gotta let go for real this
time
as the game progresses you can comfort
and romance the grieving man putting a
smile back on his face waking up next to
you will do that buddy was thinking the
same about you number 7 poison final
fight and Street Fighter series hi
having fun this sassy lady was going to
be a female adversary in final fight but
the fear of North America’s reaction to
hitting women had developers change her
to a transgendered character because
that’s better somehow it was the 80s we
were still working on that whole
equality thing
but in the end she was removed from the
US version of the game and replaced
entirely by men however she can now be
seen in different Street Fighter titles
as her pink haired ass-kicking self
[Music]
number 6
Dorian Dragon Age Inquisition do you
always answer a question with a question
would you like me to answer in some
other fashion hey if you’re capable
Bioware is one of those developers who
doesn’t shy away from LGBT
representation and Inquisition is
definitely no exception I prefer the
company of men
my father disapproves not only is there
a character who’s gay with or without
romance though if you want to romance
him you have to be a man there’s also a
female-to-male transgender character
named Kremp who’s forced to conceal who
he is in fear of slavery and execution
always wanted to see one of those big
warships in action
oh and that character is lieutenant for
the iron bull a male character you can
romance as a man as well kudos to you
Bioware what’s going on between you and
iron bull exactly if only there were a
single discreet bone in that lummox
number 5 Berto Super Mario Brothers
series it all started with an
instruction booklet according to the
original Super Mario Brothers 2 booklet
this creature is a boy who believes that
he’s a girl and wants to be referred to
as such
later releases of the game have this
information removed and there’s never
been a consistent answer to the gender
question ever since but maybe there
doesn’t have to be if he wants to be a
girl then let her rock that red bow
Yoshi certainly doesn’t seem to mind
number four Juhani Star Wars Knights of
the Old Republic how may I be of
assistance to you Padawan before Mass
Effect and Dragon Age were allowing
same-sex relationships in their games
another franchise in a galaxy far far
away had taken the helm for LGBT
representation I I care for you I do not
know why I do not know if anything will
be possible or if you even return what
they feel but I do know it is there
Knights of the Old Republic is still one
of the most beloved Star Wars games ever
and we still remember our surprise and
delight when we met this character the
very first lesbian to be written for the
Star Wars universe this is the place of
my dark power number three Samantha gone
home that’s when she said you’re so
beautiful
and she was looking at me what makes
this character interesting is that we
hear her story through family portraits
and journal entries being around Lani is
like instantly just
we learn about her girlfriend Lonnie and
their developing relationship most
importantly we get a very realistic
depiction of what it’s like to come out
she’s gonna join the army and then have
to
about who she is she said they don’t
need to know what they don’t need to
know while her parents don’t do anything
drastic their response is just as
hurtful complete denial by saying that
it’s just a phase I was prepared for
them to be mad or disappointed or start
crying or something but they were just
in denial this doesn’t stop her from
being with Lani and the to leave town
together to start a new life
dear Katie so much has changed even just
since you’ve been away number two
kanji Tatsumi Shin Megami Tensei persona
for say this show get bad introduced as
the school delinquent we learn rather
quickly that he has a heart of gold and
a crush on a certain detective then I’ll
meet you at the gates after school
tomorrow
which makes him question his sexuality
and if that questioning that endears him
to the player huh what the hell are you
pricks looking at it’s not often in
videogames that a male teenage character
wonders if he’s gay or wonders why his
love for girly things makes him queer
like so what a queer painting is so not
you it’s relatable and a good
representation of what some LGBT youth
feel like as they’re trying to figure
out who they are I don’t care who please
accept me before we come out with our
number one pick let’s take a look at
some honorable mentions so that’s why
they call him vamp no vamp isn’t for
vampire it’s because he’s bisexual
rumor has it vamp was the lover of Scott
Dolph
overt flirtation will get you everywhere
you know on a slightly more serious note
if you’re interested in helping out with
the troubles plaguing Freeside I can
come with you
whatever you say mister the lady dad oh
darling I’m a little bit of everything
I’m universal brainy Russell Mayer
number one Ellie The Last of Us I’ll be
fine and you’ll be fine and we’ll see
each other again we were all set to give
this one to Bill until the left-behind
DLC came along well you know this guy
our son Frank
who the hell’s Frank he was my partner
we can’t help but love how Naughty Dog
approached this she already had been
established as an amazing character
before her sexuality ever came into play
it wasn’t what to find her rather it was
her actions in the gains that did but we
did get to see that scene between her
and Reilly neither character made a
really big deal about it instead it felt
completely natural and much deserved
[Music]
