The meaning of "classical" with a lowercase 'c' refers to elite music with theory built around it from any culture; most people are not referring to the "Classical" with a capital 'C' period of European culture.


Why not support the printer so that it has more elevation than the fire?


this is more fun


I haven't. I have deleted some accounts, but a trail of forums, typically writing forums, with my email and some one-off password, has followed me for about half a decade. Honestly don't know how to fix that. Of the big ones, I have like a Facebook and a CraigsList, which I use for selling, plus YouTube for music.


That sexuality of a character in a game is even known is problematic; this implies the sexuality is being acted on. I wish developers would stop exploiting the four Fs to induce us to buy, and sadly my minimal consumption of video games is only a splash against the tide.


I don't think there's anything wrong with a video game character being gay, straight, or otherwise. for the most part, I do think video game romances are incredibly poorly done. I have not yet played a game where the romantic/sexual tension was not intensely cringey. we are still deep in the uncanny valley here. usually it's a fully optional side arc (eg, mass effect), so I can't say it's much of a problem in practice.


Baldur's Gate 2 ? Though not having fully animated 3D models (so you have to imagine it) probably helped a lot !


Some (many/most?) rp-games do not fix sexuality, allowing to choose any option available at playtime. The earliest that I remember is fallout 2 where you can play both guy and girl and marry/engage with both.

But it's unclear why you see that "sexuality being acted on" is problematic. It depends and is very situational, imo.
