As a person. I just don't want to forward money in the direction of the creative works of someone whose stance on whether I should be able to get married is "The same argument I have against letting a man take a dump in the ladies room. An office appropriate for one sex isn’t automatically appropriate for another, no matter how much a man loves taking a dump in the ladies room."
It's sort of a silly reason because that's not going to come across in the work?
I'm not actually funding homophobia (and do I smell a hint of cissexism too) or endorsing him as a person and he's not the sole member of the team. But he does have his name prominently on it and so I'd still not be comfortable with it, I certainly wouldn't judge anyone who doesn't see it the same way and just wants a nice game that almost certainly won't be homophobic in any way (it won't be homopositive either though).
He even pre-empted me by saying that his words would “be used by your people to justify a permanent boycott" so hey at least he won't be surprised.
