>studio makes 0 good games in 10 years
>it shuts down due to declining sales and bad games
>you're supposed to somehow feel bad for them closing down because hecking basic human empathy or something
If anything this should be happening more
@gawixol@nuhre_ Ah sorry not queers... faggots. I dont respect you or anyone for being gay. And people like you certainly haven't earned my respect. I dont know you as a person and all I've seen of you is screeching about what you feel entitled to. Fuck off.
Pretending that letting modern-day politics bleed into their work didn't burn through what little goodwill they had left is delusional at best and disingenuous at worst.
David Gaider, the creator of Dragon Age, is gay. He wrote bisexual characters without making their sexuality their entire personality or sacrificing the worldbuilding in the process.
Leliana and Zevran were bisexual, and their backgrounds reflected the cultures they came from. Alistair and Morrigan were straight and had their own preferences. Wynne, Sten, and Oghren weren't interested in the player romantically. They were written like REAL PEOPLE, with their sexualities woven naturally into the narrative.
You wouldn't necessarily know a character's sexuality unless you took the time to get to know them, exhaust their dialogue, and try flirting with them. Their identities were part of who they were, not the entirety of who they were. They didn't blurt it out over tea.
And the worst part is that Baldur's Gate 3 proved you could still do this. It integrated sexuality and identity into the world and its characters without constantly shining a spotlight on them. It let the writing speak for itself, and people accepted it and moved on.
Meanwhile, the writing in Veilguard was lazy as all hell.
When you treat your audience like they're fucking three years old, assume they're too stupid to understand anything without having it spelled out for them, and gut a beloved IP in the process of trying to prove a point, don't be surprised when you alienate the very community you're supposedly trying to uplift.
Queer people are people. They're not special, they're not props, and they're not fucking mouthpieces. Write them like people.
Just like the left says "stop shoving your religion down our throats." How about you keep your shit religion to yourself too?
It's fucking Zealotry of the highest level. All must bow down before your protected class and learn of the sins of your forefathers and repent. Fuck you
I have seen so many posts about how sad it is that Bioware is dying or how could we be happy that a legendary studio is closing. Etc etc.
The people at Bioware hate us. They stopped listening to what we wanted years ago so we stopped buying.
Its literally this meme. Keep your fucking garbage propaganda out and write something compelling and people will buy your shit.
This isnt just a bioware problem this is ALL entertainment. Movies, books, games, shows. Its fucking everywhere.
@G0ffThew Bioware died about 13-15 years ago. They deliberately did everything they could to not deliver on what their customers wanted and you want us to be sad about it? These have had contempt for us for years because we wont bow down and eat their slop propaganda Fuck them and fuck you
@KevLEXodus@st_louis_stan@nickjcal@QverSoul@Oakely_Dokely They are. But left wing nut jobs has done some much damage to the industry you basically get fired and blacklisted for speaking out against it. Its like college campuses where right leaning individuals just dont spout their opinions so they dont risk their future.
@nickjcal I keep seing comments about a great studio etc... bro that studio died about 15 years ago and has been a puppeteer corpse. And you are surprised people are glad it's gone? Wtf?
Yoshi-P was asked at Japan Expo if Lalafells can ride on other WoL's shoulders??
Yoshi-P said apparently they ARE thinking about expanding the emote functionality, which would require a new system, such as a checkbox that asks "is it ok if a Lalafell rides on your shoulder?"
@bioware The "Bioware" that made those games has been long gone. Yall haven't made anything worthwhile in 15+ years or so.
Put the fucking fries in the bag.
France has FREE health care, paid parental leave, paid family leave, FREE child care, FREE preschool, 5 weeks paid vacation, a 35 hour work week, generous unemployment and housing benefits, and heavily subsidized higher education.
Everything the left says they want AND THEY'RE STILL PROTESTING AND BURNING SHIT DOWN.
@KWnFX@bluflowersrrare@benryanwriter When you import the third world and they outbreeds your citizens it only takes a couple of generations before they and their ideas are the majority. Its already clear that the left views immigrants as a special protected class. We can look to other countries to see them falling.
@KWnFX@bluflowersrrare@benryanwriter In the last decade alone we have had 300+ attempts at change and while its good that it we have kept it the same that doesnt mean that it cannot be change. It just requires the right people. And the DSA is in charge of the Democrat party now. Saying it wont change is nieve.
