  • We care, because its always nice to extract as much information about our favorite characters as possible.

  • Not really, i've just seen you around the forum a fair bit and I know you have a good head on your shoulders :)

    Because I'm not even one bit homophobic, maybe? And it's funny, AusZombie, that you think so, for we didn't speak much.

  • Are you gay? If you are then it makes sense but if not, how do you know how closeted homosexuals act? You can't just come out with all these theories when you don't know what that certain person would act like in normal situations. It makes most of your points invalid.
  • It would be nice if we could avoid that, so maybe keep comments like this to yourself, because they're goading in and of itself.

    It would be nice if, for ONCE, we could discuss the plausibility of a character not being straight without people coming in and acting like it's the end of the world. This is a harmless and valid discussion and we have the right to talk about it without getting shit. If people don't like it, they can just avoid the thread and keep their thoughts to themselves.

    In the end we all know what this thread will turn into

    Wow, how much of an egalitarian you must be.

  • Hmm, okay. I mostly joke around, so I don't really know.

    Yeah, I think he's gay. I don't know or not if TTG wanted to explicitly make him seem that way, but everything adds up for me. Even if you think they're just close buddies, you've gotta admit that's a lot of evidence. It's totally valid for people to interpret Nick's behavior like that.

    And yes, it does matter if Nick is gay or not. I know people don't have bad intentions by saying that, but coming from an actual gay person here, you're not being as progressive as you think you are. Representation is a big deal. Saying you wouldn't mind if Nick was gay is fine however. I'm not aiming this at anyone in particular, but I see those kinds of comments a lot on threads like this.

  • Their sexuality is none of your business

    Observing someone's actions and behavior and thinking, "Hm, they might have a crush on this other character" isn't very hard.

  • I don't think he's gay, nor do I think he's straight.

    I don't make assumptions about people's sexuality until they actually say it or go out with someone of a particular sex.

    For example, Kenny could be bi, Pete could be gay, stephanie could be a lesbian etc. etc.
  • That's totally fair, and it's good not to make assumptions.

    I think it's a lot of his dialogue about Luke that makes people latch on to the idea of Nick not being straight. And even then, he could be bisexual, not gay.

  • I actually couldn't care less what their sexuality is, it was more of a rhetorical question. But he/she blatantly said "In the same matter closeted homosexuals do". Unless he was one himself, he/she can never truly know.

  • Is there a problem with gay people with you?

    Why brought this up, when it is speculated millions time before here?
  • Nah, I'm sure hes not a virgin. His personality it would just seem a bit too weird for him to be. Perhaps he had some fun with some guy back when he was part of Carvers camp?

  • It comes off as dismissive to say "who cares?? I don't." Like... okay, congratulations? We do? We care a lot and it's not for some bullshit "kawaii yaoi slash fic" shit, it's because we want to see characters we can relate to.

  • That would make his character even more adorable really
    He's the one (besides Luke) that I adore the most. I don't want him to be dead, but it surely seems that he wont be hanging around since you've already had a change to get rid of him

    I mean like
    Who would replace him if it comes to that point that he would/will (depending on whether Walter saved him or not) be useful in upcoming episodes

    I DO know, mainly due to the fact that:
    1. I am Bisexual, and was closeted for over 10 years.
    2. A close friend of mine is gay and acted exactly the same, and puts on a tough act to prevent anyone figuring it out.
    3. My brother is gay.

    I know these things. I've been around the gay block a few times. That nice, Rainbow colored block.

  • What's that supposed to mean?

    We can speculate more if we want to. I haven't seen much on the subject myself, so I don't know what you're talking about.

  • I've seen it speculated like... three times? Whereas other topics, as of late, have gotten rehashed way more times.

    This isn't a thread about "Nuke" so much as it is just about Nick's sexuality. There's nothing wrong with discussing this.

  • Son, I didn't want to tell you this until you were older, but the truth is... I am, indeed, your parents.

  • Fair enough, I'll agree that was a poor way to phrase it. You're right.

    But that doesn't make the theory itself any less valid.

    In a way I'm kind of hoping Telltale giving two gays, as well as a possible third, vicious deaths (Matt shot in neck, Nicks throat ripped out, Walter shot in head), isn't a signal of something.

    Pretty old. And freely speculate more... but why?

  • Me being openly Bi, and you are saying I have a problem with gays? Smart.

    This thread is simply to speculate. Where you got the assumption that I am targeting him and gays in an ill manner is beyond me.

  • I totally thought Stephanie and Shel were a thing.

  • Yeah, I think he is. I think he has feelings for Luke, at least.
  • ... It has some unfortunate implications.

  • Whatever floats their boats I guess. He doesn't seem the gay type but that's just stereotypes, I'm bi and I'm a manly man. I think Luke and Nick would make a cute couple but I don't do ships because that shit just causes flame wars and all sorts of sheeeyt

  • Never said it wasn't.
    skoothz posted: »

    I think at this point it's safe to say that it's a very valid and plausibly theory.

  • There was a thread with 50+ comments about what the food was that Luke gave Clementine at the end of episode 1. If people are allowed to talk about pointless shit like that and not get comments like "WHOOO CARES" then why can't we?

    Yes, but that's different from what we're discussing here. We're talking about Nick and his sexuality. Not Nuke. Not to mention a lot of the Nuke threads around here are filled with inane comments.

    Saying "who gives a shit" is kind of rude to those of us who actually are interested in discussing Nick's sexuality or Nick/Luke, as well as dismissive. I, personally, give a shit since it would be nice to have another character in the game to relate to when it comes to sexual orientation, and representation of LGBT+ people.
