We could have colorful displays in an exclusive relay dedicated to pride and even pride themed missions that would award something like rainbow colored skins or syandanas or palettes. I want to celebrate pride like I do every year IRL. TLDR - No. While the following was for colour pallettes and not events, the logic still applies: "Game developers should remain apolitical and never take a stance in anything which is controversial/always act neutrally. In the same vein, colour palettes should be what they are - colour palettes. They should never be attached to any minority/political group/organisation." My question to you: What stops here? Why propose supporting only one segment of humanity? What if I identified as the KKK? Should I get my own "white pallette" as is my representational right? 38 minutes ago, MrToastPrime said: I'm sure I speak for the vast majority of the Warframe community in wanting more inclusive events in Warframe, what do you all think?

It has nothing to with being uptight and everything to do with people not wanting politics in their game.

(XBOX)AMONGTHEWEAK Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 Anyone who is overly sensitive feels the need to be represented and accepted. People want to celebrate any certain pride for a particular reason, whether it is insecurity about being accepted among the majority for what they are prideful of or because they just really enjoy what they are prideful about and just want to show everyone that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Pease feel free to correct me if I'm wrong; The question is really meant as such, as I'm not really familiar with this stuff) 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there a political pride party? Because I've never heard of them. Pride is an entire community combined. Also I'm not amused people claim pride is just 'gay'. It's an inclusive event, cmon.

Everything, that stance Inherently comes from a certain political side, "pride day" is leftwing celebration in of itself and is most definetly a political statement. Either way, it should not be put into our videogames, all it serves to do is split a community that had no quarrels with each other, that were friendly and amicable with each other over a hobby they both enjoyed. Videogames bring people together, meanwhile politics inherently do not, regardless of what side you support. Thus you want to keep politics as far away from videogames as possible, people come here to get away from all the crap of real life, it is escapism.

Guest Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 (edited) What's preventing you from organizing such event yourself? Begging a company to celebrate your sexual orientation seems like utterly histrionic behavior to me. Besides, some countries have laws forbidding 'gay propaganda', as ridiculous as it may sound.

Gabbynaru Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 4 minutes ago, MrToastPrime said: inclusive and celebrating everyone You mean exclusive and "celebrating" a specific group of people? Sorry if this sounds like a di*k thing to say, but all these pride events scream like you guys just want attention. Like you want to be segregated, like you want to be that group over there, just with the spotlight put on you, like you want to be singled out. Inclusivity and celebrating everyone, to me at least, means that there is no discrimination based on race, gender, sexual orientation, skin color or whatever, that you're just an unimportant regular Joe like the rest of us.. So, a pride event is not inclusive or celebratory, it is an event that puts the spotlight on a single group of people. It's just attention who*ing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
