so I have played practically every side quest I could, I'm 140 hrs deep Im gonna start with the good. - a ton of the map has collision so exploration can be super fun since you can get into really weird places. Small detals i didnt expect to be able to climb on I could and that was nice -Lots of good clothing option and character customization -Lots of gameplay that I found to usually be very fun and generally rewarding! -A lof of the game's systems seemed to work well -Sidequests I found to be often unqiue and engaging. Not always the same types of missions -Overall really fun to play if you're someone who likes to see the game glitch out sometimes . I loved playing this game, but I want to voice some specific greivances that stood out. I wanted to voice my perspective of what its like to play this game as a gay guy. - Certain section of the game force your character to have sexual interactions with women which did weird me out a bit. Not a huge deal overall but I would say it taking the action out of context it is making a gay man (if you are playing V that way like I was) get sexual with a woman and this happens more than once. - The Only Gay male characters that are visible are sex workers or Kerry Eurodyne (not great but I'll live at least there are any) -Kerry is an interesting character but having the gay romance option be at least 70 is... kinda gross? This plays into a longstanding negative stereotype abt gay men being old perverts and having large age gaps in relationships. Usually I wouldn't care, but I loved this game 99% of the time. This deatil sticks out like a sore thumb to me especially when a marketed point of the game was supposed to be LGBT inclusivity. LGBT people are in the game but the followthrough of what it means to be legitimately inclusive is... not there.
