But one of the specific things I find that separates Western from Eastern RPGs (and hence the need to differentiate between the two) is the respective willingness and unwillingness to include things that we might consider “progressive,” such as queer love-a thing that Eastern nations are still uncomfortably navigating (and which Westerners generally have no real right to comment on).Īll of that to say…this makes Edelgard even more of a badass than she already is. People seem to think that Eastern people belong solely in the East, and vice versa. A lot of people got on my case when I said we need more Asian characters in Western RPGs.
