He's straight? But what about the gay stereotypes that was radiating off of him?
The Internetz's White Shining Knights of the Round Table.

Twist is that he is actually gay, he really loved Mohan. You are the son of the man he loved and could never give to him.
As incredibly interesting for this game to explore, I highly doubt it. Only because most of the audience wouldn't care. =\ My assumption, though I would like to be proven wrong.
I'd dig it, though.
This also wouldn't surprise me. Not sure why people are assuming he's not gay. Ubi has yet to say that. Could very easily be a twist.
I'm curious if - given the setup they have - the story touches on some of the ongoing issues between Tibetans and Chinese in its themes. I find it a little funny that the original complaints about some dominating foreign force leering over a local upon broken religious imagery translates pretty well to that conflict with the reveal that the foreigner is Chinese and the man at his feet is a Himalayan.
Why are people assuming he's gay in the first place?
What's so controversial about him?
He looks to be a great villain, I actually am more interested in the game after seeing the trailer because of him, but controversial? Come on.
Subjective probably.Because Ubisoft can't write characters to save their lives and it would be in character of them to make Min an aggressive, closeted gay man. Ubisoft is very regularly tone-deaf. Far Cry 3 certainly is.
This is like saying Barack Obama isn't actually black.Ubi didn't lie, but they definitely told a half-truth. He looks white because he is in part.
Subjective probably.
I thought Vaas was interesting.

Are we going to start thinking that there may be a twist in regards to the sexuality of every other character in upcoming video games or is it just this guy because of his pimping suit, despite the fact that he has previously shown interest in women and the inspirations for his colourful suit has already been explained?This also wouldn't surprise me.

I dont get why they're gonna use Troy Baker for this one. Why not use someone who's actually from that country the game is set in?

Kakihara is the flamboyant villain, not Ichi.

Besides, Vaas was great imo, so can't say I agree with you on Ubisoft not being able to write characters for shit.
People assumed he was a gay racist basically.What's so controversial about him?

I don't know. Are we going to start pretending that video games are typically more tactful than that? 'Cause they're not.
I thought it was going to turn out that you were vaas at the end of the game. The story turned out so badly in that game.They could've done something interesting with him and his relationship with his sister (being the leader of the resistance on the island/Rakyat).
But no. You kill him early. =(
Are we going to start pretending that they can't be?
You are literally making shit up to be offended about. Videogames do have issues, so why don't you focus on them rather than talking about a hypothetical situation you made up with no real basis in reality beyond your apparent belief a pink suit equals gay.I don't know.

Wait.
Wait....
THAT WAS FUCKING TROY BAKER?!
So, not gay or racist. Good job journalists and bloggers once again on jumping to conclusions.
I'm glad this Ubi team didn't respond directly to those claims. Unlike the Ass Creed Unity Ubi guys towards the silly female characters animations thing.
I honestly wouldn't be shocked if a article comes up complaining how it was a missed opportunity that he wasn't gay.
Honestly Troy Baker killed it, super pumped for this one.
Man that dude... has some issues.
Indeed. I can understand people wanting more diversity in games, but that also means some of your villains will be minorities too. Seems the only way for there not to be backlash about racism/sexism/homophobia is to have a black female protagonist who is a shining paragon of humanity. Otherwise someone, somewhere will complain that company X clearly hates whatever it is. Kinda funny the same people wanting to end gay stereotypes jumped to the conclusion that the guy was gay because of his suit color...
