I don't know the source so like... confirmed ace or "ace"? And as someone on the ace spectrum, is kissing like... a big no for all aces? Even sex isn't a hard no for all aces. Physical enjoyment =/= sexual attraction always.

It's from the DLC for the video game Horizon Forbidden West.

I am like 99% sure the answer is "ace" not confirmed ace

I've only played the first game, and she's like 19 and too busy saving the world to get into relationship drama so nothing is confirmed in the first game. Unless they say she's ace in the second game before this DLC, then this is just OPs headcanon.

Sucks for OP that this is enough for them to refuse to play a very enjoyable game. As an ace lady married to another ace lady, this just makes me look forward to playing it even more.

I played the second game (not the DLC yet though, but I'm also looking forward to it!) and they do not mention anything about Aloy's sexuality. The second game is actually about her building platonic bonds of friendship with the people she's met (both from the first game and the second) and how she doesn't have to save the world alone (there is also a familial bond she also forms, but that's entering spoiler territory.)

I guess maybe OP meant "She is ace" as a definitely headcanon for them, not a "this was confirmed 100% in canon." That's how I interpreted it anyway.

That's a generous interpretation!

yup

Spot on my response to reading this secret. Hello brain twin!

(Anonymous) 2023-05-04 11:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Also ace, seconding this!

Asexual people kiss. Kissing doesn't mean she's not ace.

Wait wait wait, she ends up with another girl? I may actually have to check this game out now.

In the DLC. But you might be disappointed if you’re looking for a long term relationship.

Huh. This game has been on my "Maybe" list for awhile but this secret is actually making me want to push it to the "Next in Line" mental list.

I liked the asexual aromantic interpretation in the first game, both for Aloy and Elisabet. But Aloy could respond to Avad's flirting in the second game, so I guess that ship has already sailed.
