New day, new post! For today's blog post, I will be talking about something in Fate/Grand Order that bothers me. For those of you who don't know, this game allows you to choose either male or female for your player character. This doesn't effect much, other than the character design, pronouns, and outfits. But I wished it had more of an effect on the game. Because the problem I have with it, is the flirting. Regardless of which you choose, the girls will be all over your character but the guys will avoid you like the plague. I understand that this game is marketed towards men, but women play it too. Either all of them should be interested, or none of them should. It is so uncomfortable to have all of the women in existence throwing themselves at my character's feet while the men hit on everyone else around my character. It really alienates anyone who's interested in men, whether they be men or women. They don't have to change the story, but they should at least make it equal. Why do all of the women flirt and none of the men? Even the ones who are supposed to be bisexual never make any sort of comments. It's really unbalanced, and I don't think I've ever seen a gacha game push away one half of the fan base like this. Usually they just allow fans to get close to whoever they want so they can go by preference. But this game doesn't care if you like men, because the men don't like you. It's women or nothing. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. I've been playing through the events and stories recently and this fact just really bugs me. Regardless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!
