Things that I have, unfortunately learned WELL against my will about at least half the horror community:
1. None of yโall would ever bat an eye at Regan from The Exorcist (a child who had her autonomy stripped from her), Carrie (a victim of literal abuse and torment both from her mother and classmates), Jason (once a CHILD victim who died tragically), any deadites from The Evil Dead franchise, to name a few, being added, but yall draw the line at Nikki for some reason.
2. Obsession was clearly babyโs first horror movie for too many of yall, because why are we acting like Nikki is the first SA survivor to become a horror icon?
3. Yโall need everything SPOON fed to you because, why are we also having discourse on whether or not Freddy Krueger was a child molestor?
4. Itโs okay for Freddy to be a child predator, but when The Grabber comes into the conversation, itโs pearl clutching time
5. Not a single one of you actually cares that the LITERAL CAST AND CREW LOVE SEEING HER ADDED
6. Too many of you care more about a literal FICTIONAL character than yall do about real life SA survivors telling you itโs actually more offensive that you only see Nikki as what happened to her.
7. You ALL need to touch grass yesterday!
@H3nw3 Their last game that actually made sales is over a decade old. ME3 was the start of the fall, when Bioware made it clear they didn't give a shit about player feedback.
Iโm a forgiving person and I can hear the remorse in your voice so I forgive you.
However, there are still consequences to said actions that will prompt me not to attend.
Use the money you offered me in contract to hire artists, and maybe next year Iโll reconsider. Sorry.
@JonMcBon Bioware has been downshill since Mass Effect 2 and has refused to adjust for player feedback in every game that followed. ME3, Andromeda, Anthem. DA been ass after the first one honestly, 3rd was just okay, 2/4 are just trash.
Bioware gave up long before EA finished it.
@JonMcBon Duke Nukem's adjacent cousin Sam had some good games back in the day. Hopefully they avoid the same traps Duke fell into when he tried a come back.
@BOTTOMGCJ Stop feeding the OCD Loop, that one were you keep repeating situations and finding the 'right answer'. Instead feed it vindication. "I shouldn't care because they did X".
If you can't find vindication, you already know the answers to the questions you want to ask.
