downloads warframe
As a Warframe sicko:
The only gay sex is implied between two people in a really beautiful and totally toxic as fuck relationship (… when you type it out… that is peak gay). That said, you play as a mechanically genderfluid character who, as of the 1999 update, actually has dialogue that more or less confirms that they also identify that way.
And the recently added romance system (Sadly only culminates in a New Year’s Kiss), like most modern games not written by chuds, just lets you get with whoever you wanna get with (look up Eleanor’s tongue…).
Rest is pretty spot on to the point that it is increasingly rare for a new story quest to not have a content warning or two ahead of it (and the story of how they got to Jade Shadows is almost as beautiful as the quest itself). ALthough I do take issue with “beat the main villain with the power of love”
spoiler
As of 2025, there are three meaningful contendors for “main villain”.
Ballas you beat with the power of timeline fuckery, a battleship, a giant stompy mech suit, a smaller mech suit, an eldritch horror (the player character), and your mother figure (who had been being tortured and manipulated by Balls for at least “countless centuries”) making a deal with the eldritch abomination who gave you your powers.
Said eldritch abomination who gave you your powers and is basically Chaos with less ultraviolence and more mind games.
And one of the people involved in that beautiful love story: Albrecht Entrati. Imagine if Gendo Ikari had been given time to be something other than a true monster so that you simultaneously want to cave his skull in and know that you need him to stand a chance at making it through this. Also if Gendo were gay as all fuck and had an adorable kitty cat who is probably also tired of his bullshit.
But yeah. Warframe is fucking good. And DE have handled the various Gamer attacks over the years really well. I’ll always be bothered by when Arena Net threw one of their writers and staff under the bus for not placating the “Have you considered having choice in your dialogue? I know you are a stupid woman but try harder” crowd. Whereas there was a similar push against DE to fire a few devs/community managers. To my knowledge, the only outcome was DE telling “Misan” that she should probably change her username which… fair play.
And when other studios and teams tiptoe around LGBTQ stuff? DE makes it front and center as a way to contrast the kind of monster who would experiment on animals and people and cause endless suffering with the kind of man who truly loves his partner and wants to protect him from… him.
