Come to think of it, Sadie Salvitas in GW1, who explicitly says her pink dye is in support of breast cancer awareness, would be the earliest example. What about the Seize the Awkward outfit and the Mini Guardian Angel Aurene and Extra Life title? Aren't those also bringing real-life issues into the game? Especially the outfit, which literally has the organisations logo on it. Is that really what we want? It's not what I want, whether I agree with those causes or not!

They always keep stuff like that to third party platforms - currently shown by changing their Logo on social media such as Twitter. If we start arguing about stuff like that, we might aswell ask why we can only play male/female characters.Īlso: The pride parade is an event organized by players, isnt it? ANet and NCSoft have always been careful about making political statements within their game or the official platforms.

Why, if I had the opportunity to go and get myself a rainbow-colored cape from some sort of achievement that possibly involved a side quest featuring some of GW2's LGBT characters (but please, not explicitly for that purpose!), I think I'd probably go do that! I mean, who couldn't find a use for a rainbow-colored cloak? Am I wrong? As symbology goes, I'd say it's fairly ambiguous. On the other hand, a rainbow colored cape is not exactly a banner ad.
