LGBTQ+

Canonical stuff~
Information for some games is incomplete. A work in progress.
Specificity of terms used is dependent on what I have managed to confirm the accuracy of myself.

"Non-binary" is used to refer to anyone who is neither strictly female, nor strictly male in gender, even if there is a more specific term that is applicable.
I use "m-spec" here as an umbrella term to refer to a romantic and/or sexual orientation of attraction to multiple genders.

I have some as-of-yet unreleased games at the bottom of the list.

Suggestions are more than welcome. : )

I'm also maintaining a list specific to non-binary representation and options, for anyone who's craving that.

A couple to add perhaps: OneShot also has a main character of non-specific gender similar to Undertale/Deltarune, and the player character in Outer Wilds is agender and only uses they/them pronouns (as is their entire species). Hollow Knight also features LGBT romance as well as the player being agender (Nailsmith & Sheo are shown, Grey Mourner & Tratior's Child).

Nooo, what!? Definitely adding that bit about Outer Wilds to my NB list too (and really must get around to playing it).
Very much appreciated, @rylirk !
