Game Gets Gay Marriage, Because Kickstarter

Double Fine’s strategy game Massive Chalice will let you get married, and make babies. But wait a minute. What if two dudes/ladies want to get married? Well, the game didn’t originally support it. “That was something I got kinda blindsided by”, Double Fine’s Brad Muir tells Rock Paper Shotgun. “That was really unfortunate. It kinda makes me feel shitty that it’s not something I’d thought of. I think it’s sort of hetero privilege that I didn’t see it coming.” Here’s where it gets interesting: gay marriage is now in the game, and it’s because of Kickstarter. “We brought it [via Kickstarter] to a broader group of people, and then there were some people who brought it up and wanted to talk huc99สล็อตฟรี about it. There’s a raging thread on our forums.”cnx.cmd.push(function(){cnx({"playerId":"e3616d04-4972-4839-a63a-c6975e2e9731","settings":{"advertising":{"macros":{"AD_UNIT":"/23178111854/od.kotaku.com/article","CHILD_UNIT":"article","POST_ID":"511794995","POST_TYPE":"post","CHANNEL":"uncategorized","SECTION":"","SUBSECTION":"","CATEGORIES":"uncategorized","TAGS":"","NOP":"0"},"timeBeforeFirstAd":0}}}).render("cnx-player-main")}); If they’d taken the game straight dafabet to a publisher, the old-fashioned way, that would never have happened.
