The article linked by the original poster had nothing to do with Sim City. It is about cultural and gender tolerance within the gaming community.
Further, your "you guys" comment is better directed at EA rather than us
You think EA, after all it has done in the past decade or so to completely defecate on the gaming industry, ruining countless franchises, Sim City being the most recent, cares about "political progressiveness?" In the market system we live in, everything is on the foundation of money.
My political views aside, watch the video. It shows homosexuality as a quality completely based on sex. Don't you feel that the video portrays homosexuality under a negative stereotype, for one? As the obvious homosexual you are, is all you think about in relation to sex? It was unreal seeing this as a promotion for LGBT-anything. Especially 0:39 which looks like a drunken sex party.
For two, it is obvious that EA released this video today under damage control. It is entirely because of this Sim City 5 screw up, that they are desperately, hilariously, attempting to garner whatever reputation they have left by playing into the pro-homosexuality crowd.
The commenters had every right to throw this in EA's face. They (EA) are trying to look all good and liberal to get the edgy Facebook teens to like them with the video, totally reprehensible. Those people would be the only ones who would buy the casualizied heap that is the new so-called Sim-City anyway.
I normally wouldn't post, but I can't handle people like you.
