      Non game one, Dumbledore was declared gay by Rowling.

      In games, Kaiden Alenko becomes gay in ME3 if he’s still alive.

          1 was straight or liara only. 2 was straight with aliens except for Kelly being a bi option which didn’t actually trigger the romance achievement. 3 actually had some gay/bi options, but only Kaiden was a character that already existed.

        Dumbledore wasn’t “famously hetero”. Revealing the sexuality of a character who never had one established isn’t a change, it’s just new information. Getting offended at that is no less bigoted than getting offended at a new gay character being introduced.

      I don’t have all the details but I think they did this with Ice man a while back. Could have been an alternate timeline or something though I’ve never read that storyline.

        Comic books are a bad example imo because retconing characters is just what they do over there lmfao. But yeah they did decide in 2015 that Iceman was a closeted gay man. His sexuality wasn’t really a major point of his character beforehand tho and I think the way they did it told an interesting story for his character, so I think it was a worthwhile retcon of an otherwise kind of mediocre character.
