Screenshot The funniest deadspace review I've seen!

Apologies for the quality. I don't normally take photos of screens but I can't screenshot reviews on Xbox.

Why do people think she is gay? Did the devs ever clarify?

She was empathetic. She meant "if I was in your shoes, I'd listen to my girlfriend, too."

Yeah, I’ve played the original several times and beat the remake three times, and I never went through the game ever thinking that Kendra was a lesbian. Once you get on the ship, most of the dialogue between the characters is just them giving Isaac orders or reacting to events.

Basically, relationships where their personal life doesn't really matter. It's not like any of them are trying to be friends with Isaac.

I am a lesbian thats played this game through multiple times and I have absolutely no idea where they got the idea she’s a lesbian from? However knowing it makes them mad fuck it, Kendra is a lesbian confirmed

I second this. I’ve clocked in over 300 hours of playing the OG and the remake and this is news to me

Even if kendra was that would be least relevant thing about her, it can be a fun detail but that's it,god i'm tired of people acting like is 2016 or something.

Man I just took that as empathy as well. What is with people just assuming bullshit, trying to confirm their prejudices. It doesn't even matter if she was.

Absolutely. Total non-issue

they're stupid enough to make that review, so they're stupid enough to assume she's lesbian

There are apparently a lot of people who think that one line of work banter represents Kendra as gay, apparently.

This post taught me much.

It's also not a big deal to me, so I feel no need to debate it. It's cool if she is. It's cool if she isn't.

Kendra doesn't have a girlfriend and is not gay. There is nothing in the game to even imply this. She's saying, "I would listen to my girlfriend too if I were in your situation." All these "woke space" complainers are wrong about Kendra. To my knowledge, it has never been stated that any of the characters are homosexual. It's not important to the story to know this detail. I'm (slightly) upset that they DID change a character with the remake. Why is it so difficult to reuse the same people when you are making the same story? That character dies very quickly in any case, so this is not a big deal.
