Bisexual Lighting.

Of course the mentally deranged will try to steal the colour purple, because it's the coolest. And of course, being how they are, they have to fuck it up by adding the pink hue. They really must ruin everything, always 🙄

They fucking had light blue right there, why not take it. But no, they just want to ruin things. Instead of putting their effort in growing the number 43, they waste their time with stealing colours 🙄

I have led accent lighting behind the tv in my media room and I leave it set to purple all the time because I find it pleasing. I guess this is how I find out I'm bisexual.

I like purple. The latest Zelda game has a lot of purple and it's the best. The Warp and Slaanesh in Warhammer 40,000 is depicted as purple. Purple is the color of royalty.
 
For years now I've noticed this trend of anything that has a purple hue somewhere in the game poster to normally mean the product has, how can I put it.. a lower quality to it somewhere along the line and I don't think I was the only one to notice, going by a few posts on here I've seen on Gaf


Well I'll be damned, it was actually a thing.

Why these two things qualified a normally sub par product I don't know 🤷‍♂️

Low effort post OP. It has purple in it.

I didn't make up Bisexual Lighting :messenger_tears_of_joy:

I just came across it and thought it odd that most gaming things that have that hue somewhere in the poster has normally meant it to have some odd drama around it..

Two most recent~

I might be looking for signs that aren't actually there... but I noticed this trend too. With the color grading and all.

You aren't the only one. As soon as I see that color show up in a game (most new games in the past 5 years have had this) I immediately question it.

never put your money into anything with this coded color scheme
(concord thread)

Yeah I've noticed this for years, these particular colors always show up, and run quickly if you see them.

It's basically a combination of various gay schemes but with a strong emphasis on the tranny flag colors, which are themselves essentially baby blues & pinks & purple on between them -- emphasizing the age regression part that is overall inseparable from sexual androgyny. At least it's not subtle.

For those that keep posting everything that is purple like "so is this ghey too?" no, it's obviously not just any purple. It's a specific kind of purple + baby colors + neon spectrum that is more of a scheme than a single shade. Classic purple is royal, don't associate it with this trash.

It doesn't take much browsing of the related tags on steam & other indie store fronts to start seeing it everywhere:

Wikipedia should delete that article for being such obvious nonsense: "The concept of bisexual lighting was invented in 2014 by a Tumblr fan of Sherlock who believed that the lighting was being used to signal that Dr. Watson was bisexual and would eventually be in a romantic relationship with Sherlock Holmes".

It's as dumb as that stuff about Sylveon being a trans icon.

I've heard for years living in the South that "you don't wear purple and white because you're saying that you're gay to everyone" and lol I guess my mom and sisters weren't bullshit.

So almost entirely BOTW blue and orange?
Yes, it's called design trends, in the 2000s it got that bad that it became a meme "Teal & Orange", then we had a brief period of block colours on posters (like a black stencil image on a solid colour background) and the current trend is the purple hues.
