Games with lesbian content?

The other one, between two humans, is still in its budding stages and is very cute. They'd better not kill either of them off...

Neither of those relationships are fanservicey, since they treat them like any other romance but with two women instead of a woman and a man. The most they ever show them doing is holding hands. (And it is so cute.)

Except one is constantly naked and is only wearing her illusion magic. *wink wink*

But yeah, I like it, too. GW2 is still desperately in need of developed ingame characters. I'm sure there are plenty in the novels etc, but ingame, you only have a handful.

Mugen Souls has a fair bit of lesbian esque bonding at the end of practically every level. Its 100% confirmed Sandy has lesbian desires.

If you're willing to count (probably unintentional) subtext, I personally got the feeling that Lara Croft in the new Tomb Raider was at the very least attracted to he friend Sam.

As for actual text-level stuff, most of what I know has been said already.

I think the sub text in that game is that they are really close friends, I never saw anything that hinted at any different type of a relationship.

Vampire: The Masquerade you can have some strong implied interactions with on of the characters you meet.

Can't think of any not listed

You know, this has bothered me a lot about western media; where gay women are almost entirely represented in either fan service or porn. It feels as if general society doesn't acknowledge the relationship I want as an actual relationship, to be honest, it hurts if I dwell on it. But, some yuri has been very consoling on this point, and it's striking how much a representation of your romantic desires can have an impact on how you feel about your future and general self. It feels as if you're no longer just living in your head...

Validating, in a certain sense, that I can have a relationship with another woman and not have it just be sex.

Thanks for the detailed replies.

I made a bet a while ago I could name 10 (non-porn) games with lesbian content (game series counts as a single title). I got up to three and then caved in and included three more titles where lesbian content was barely present. I was pretty shocked I couldn't come up with anything else (and lost the damn bet). I'm surprised that with all the titles mentioned here, that's still barely 10 games that have any even remotely more substantial lesbian content (i.e. a prominent character / relationship or, hell, even fan-service).

Then again, I played through the whole Longest Journey a long time ago and never picked up on the lesbian stuff. Weird.

I guess, the conclusion is that Bioware has put in the most effort thus far, as far as big Western developers go. As for the future, I guess will see what Dragon Age 3. the new Mass Effect game and the promising Cyberpunk 2077 from the Witcher developer will bring.

If anyone can think of any other upcoming title that might include this type of content, please, do share.

Persona 4 has Chie and Yukiko that are quite close and full of subtext. Some of the other girls are kind of that way too.

Surprisingly enough, Psychonauts, but only if you read the campster background material which casts many characters in a very different light.

There really isn't much content with girl on girl relationships that isn't fanservice, having said that though the Sono Hanabira ni Kuchizuke o/A Kiss for the Petals series while it does have a lot of adult content it does properly depict a romantic relationship/story between two girls



on the Fire Emblem Awakening subject, Tharja and the female MC should have been possible and in order to explain the kids they should have gone with either adoption or... well it's a fantasy setting who's to say the same rules of conception apply, for all we know females may indeed be fully capable of impregnating another female... specially if one of them dabbles in dark arts and magic!

as for Persona; I was really bothered with P3P, I had played the PS2 version to death so I didn't care to play as a dude again so I went ahead and played as a girl hoping to have a relationship with Yukari and big whoop the game doesn't allow it I hope they fix this for Persona 5 because really at least one girl/boy should be allowed to have same sex preferences

Only series that I think SHOULD have more lesbian/gay relationships in is Fire Emblem. It doesn't make sense that I can't ship Chrom and Lon'qu together.

I was more than a little annoyed when I couldn't woo Miriel as a female character.

LET ME EXPLORE MY JUVENILE FANTASIES!


Anyways, Pretty much every RPG I've played...I like playing female characters and I happen to be attracted to females so...things happen.

To be fair, the whole point of the relationships in Awakening is meeting your children from the future. Needless to say, you'd miss out on quite a bit of content if you went for a gay relationship.

That said, I definitely got a lesbian vibe from Tharja on my female character.

Here are 5 videogames with hidden lesbian content, characters or otherwise strong innuendos towards some feline action going on behind the scenes. https://youtu.be/8bIgQyKDzL0
