If its optional to be gay in the game then it should also be optional to persecute gays in the game.
Why can't i hunt down all the gays in the game as an "optional" side quest? why can't i roleplay as a homophobic priest? why can't i report Hans to the Church for being gay? its all just "optional" right?
Excellent questions, especially reporting Hans to the famously tolerant medieval Catholic Church. That would be one of the juiciest choice dilemmas in an RPG.
How is it a dilemma if the right choice is obvious?
Reminds me of how Henry can straight up lie about the Waldensians to the Vicar about their prayers. lmao You can do some fucked up shit in KCD1 for the sake of the Church.
