There's a good way for a game to make fun of fags, and there's a bad way. For example, Tingle in MM/WW was clearly a faggot but it was subtle enough to remain somewhat tasteful and funny. Then, there's FF7's approach. I'd say it's a legitimate "I turned the game off right there" worthy flaw. This isn't some side character having a wink and nod personality or something, it's the main character being sodomized by a group of strongmen in a funhouse bath tub. I don't care if it's "optional", not to mention you can just walk into it by accident. It's literally the game saying, "you want to keep playing? well guess what bud, now you have to play as character that got raped LMAO". I could almost forgive the game having Cloud dress up as a woman because it's a typical japanese trope and that kind of stuff comes with the territory, but having your MC get gangbanged is appalling even by the usual degenerate nip standards.
I almost feel like this is a mandela effecf. I never encountered this when I played the game back in the day, and never heard anyone talk about it, but widespread knowledge of it surfaced a few years ago and I couldn't believe it when I first saw it. It ruined the game for me.
