@MRSURREALISMM@shidmuffin Kingfisher didn't even mention Rooney in the acknowledgements while praising people from WOTC. People should stop using Rooney as shield for this book. He had no editorial power.
@dracula_bf You twitter page is your platform to translate your opinion. So you just want people to silently agree with you and say nothing. Okay then.
@dracula_bf Then why are you complaining about the thing barely anyone complains about. When people say the book contradicts canon, they are not talking about what you said they are talking about.
@thefoolslibrary She confirmed on her BlueSky that she was given a lot of freedom as long as she wrote in line with 5e rules. The only major thing she mentioned is WOTC asking her to remove the Gur mention.
@thefoolslibrary The last time Stephen Rooney was asked about the book, he refused to answer any questions because "I was barely involved" and also Kingfisher herself doesn't even mention him in her Acknowledgement section of the book. People massively overstate his editorial power.
@thefoolslibrary Larian? Larian stated specifically they have absolutely nothing to do with it. Also, lets not act like Kingfisher was tied up, gagged and forced to write this book under the gun point. She was free to refuse but money were more important to her than being true to this charatcer.
@AnevalNya@dyuongv Because legit ARC readers who recently got their legal copies confirm it's absolutely the same. Neil's excerpt confirms it's the same text as well. I am not pressuring you, if you really think WOTC deserve money for shitting all over BG3, be my guest.
#AstarionBookSpoilers#TheNostarionSaga I really should talk more about its glaring lore inconsistencies and characterization/timeline fuckeries, because it is much more than just "ugh cringe/lol sex", but for now have this as a pretty good, if angry, summary (found on tumblr)๐
@silicagelz You do you, but I hope you realise that if you buy it, read it and agree with the majority who says it destroyed Astarion's character, you are supporting WOTC and all the people who did it. You are supporting WOTC ruining BG3 legacy.
