People need to understand one thing - this isn't Bioware anymore. The people who made Bioware successful are long gone. It's the same pattern that we've seen with Star Wars and LOTR. They're no longer LucasArts or Peter Jackson. These are now far left, woke executives who bought successful brands and then forced out the creative geniuses who made them iconic in the first place, only to shell out terrible experiences with nothing but a political agenda in mind. And they can only do it through such brands, because none of their "new" stuff would ever be taken seriously, ever. So, they prey on past greatness and destroy it systematically through modern lunacy. All you need to know about this game is already in the character creator - the pronoun selector. It begins and stops there for me personally. I'm gonna wait for Stalker 2 and Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2. At least I know these games will be about gaming, not about creating a "safe space".

Well, those same people are now calling the shots in our gaming industry. The outliers, the ones society itself had to sideline because their behavior was impossible to integrate, are somehow dictating what we should love and play. These are people who’ve spent their entire lives on the outside, harboring nothing but resentment and vengeance for anyone they deemed 'normal.' And now, they’re using our cherished franchises as their mouthpiece. It’s blatant. These directors have no love, no respect, no genuine connection to the stories they’re warping. They see our beloved IPs as a tool-a tool for pushing their twisted worldview onto us, ignoring the spirit, the fans, and everything that made these games legendary. What we’re witnessing is a sociopathic hijacking of creativity; they’re systematically dismantling everything we hold dear just to plaster their own distorted reflection across the medium.

Just like that you got a new subscriber because you woke up and chose to speak *FACTS* ❤️‍🔥🗣️

I can't put my finger on why, but there's something extremely uncanny and unsettling about all the characters I've seen from this game. I preordered DA1 and played it the day of release in college, it was my dream game, and I really enjoyed it. To see what this franchise has turned into is incredibly disappointing and honestly worrying. What will they ruin next?

[@killzone3121]

I think I know where’s the uncanny feeling comes from, skillup helped me to understand why and it’s because everyone from this game looks like characters from a Sherk movie, look up a image of Prince Charming and put it next to the characters from this game and you will see

[@MrBongJovi]

I was about to say "why the hell do all the characters look like the sims? Then I looked it up and went "oooooohhhh thats why".

[@BrokenFluorite]

Honestly, sims look better. At least proportions are okay and not that of a stubby glossy funko pop parody

[@SusScrofaVulgaris]

Once upon a time you played as a grey warden fighting the dark spawn. A sub plot of mages who were being demon possesed and Templars holding them back. With werewolf forest elves and dwarves vanguarding the tunnels against the dark spawn. With a hint of a threat that the quanari were invading.

[@blshouse]

We've come so far from the days of putting the gender bending belt on Xzar in the original Baldur's Gate for laughs and the activists crying because Bioware didn't include gay romance options in BG2.

[@bookcloaks]

Remember when BioWare games had Edwin put on a cursed belt that turned him into Edwina, and then Minsc and everyone else in your party made fun of him for ages? I member.

[@HybOj]

So this is what Bioware legend ends up as... its crazy, insane, and sad... like, their body was infected with a demon, transformed and now this evil husk puked out its (hopefully) last rotten shyt on us... WOW... WOW man :X what a sight to behold. Remember, this studio produced stuff like Baldurs Gate 1+2, Neverwinter Nights, Star wars KOTOR, Mass Effect, Dragon Age, SW:TOR... what the eff?? Damn, Im speechless

You just click, cast magic and create dolls, it's not as deep as you try to make it, I mean, it's just a game because you guys always try to make everything so exaggerated

[@SonAlexander]

I knew Dragon Age had fallen, but to see it fall THIS FAR is honestly surprising. I didn’t think I could be surprised after watching the fall happen in slow motion for the last 2 years, but my God, this is literally “Trans Indoctrination” the “game”

[@Darkemace]

Death of Bioware? Bioware received a mortal blow back in 2007, bled out over the next few years, and is now just a dead husk of the once great studio. Bioware: 1995-2007. You will be missed.

[@rossfloyd-y5o]

THE GAY IS IN THE WATER!!!

[@AnonymousNoNayme]

Estrogen mimicking compounds are no joke. They are literally everywhere, all plastics (and microplastics!) leech xenoestrogens which do turn a lot of frog species that exhibit sequential hermaphroditism (where individuals of one sex change into the other sex under certain conditions) "gay", notably certain frogs can switch from female to male (which they make a whole thing out of in Jurassic Park if anyone remembers). Leads to seemingly all male frogs constantly trying to bang one another. There are papers on it where frog species have died out due to plasticizer contamination from chemical plants geting into the water "turning all the frogs gay". Alex Jones is crazy af, but he's also often right about a lot of things, he is just manic (and possibly a little schizophrenic) so he glosses over all the stuff to backup his research and you need to know a lot and do your own so you can read between the lines and suss out the kernels of truth from the hyperbole/BS. Sad what they did to that poor sick man when you actually know he needed help and was being exploited due to his mental condition. He was basically used as a modern day freak show then persecuted for it when he truly believed he was doing the right thing and giving people important information. Anyway i digress, a lot of plants are full of phytoestrogens too. That's why you never go vegan as they all turn into weak emotional sickly types unless they are lying, and/or juicing or spending tons of money for special vegan supplements and protein to chemically do what they could do naturally with a few eggs every morning.

It's criminal if you ask me, this is Saville levels of "how were we to know" when children are asking for irreversible life decisions because it's "cool" in this game... I think the government should intervene at this point

They overestimate the consumers actually interested in queer fanfic.

[@proto-geek248]

@@frishter 🤏

[@link10909]

That is an optimistic take, I really don't think they even believe the consumers are there. If they thought this would be a good business call and this would get a lot of sales they wouldn't be saying "if this is the last in the franchise". They know its unpopular and bad but are actively making the choice to endorse things that dont have a market. The real question is if its the writers/reviewers being activists themselves or if its the top business/financiers pushing this as obligatory activist work.

[@Ensign_Cthulhu]

If that's what they were trying for, it doesn't even appear to be well-written.

[@frishter]

@@link10909 Remember that these people block anyone who disagrees with them so create their own echo chambers where they think the majority agrees with them. As for who the activists are, my guess is all of the above. The Journos are consistently anti-gamer, one look at the writers and you can see why the writing went that direction, and at the top this is way too common to not be intentional. Wouldn't surprise me if someone had dirt on them to "convince" them to implement these policies.

[@ippothedestroyer]

This game is made for zoomers/next generation. The people who liked the older games from bioware such as baldur's gate 2 and origins this game isn't for us. Its so clear who they're catering to.

[@eddyram4932]

The thing is that in the original lore, all Qunari are either male or female, they know exactly what “they” are😂 there is no mistake in their culture. Qunari also don’t know who their parents are, and they don’t call anyone specific “mother” their mothers are all the females in their vicinity. So if this thing called Taash actually followed the Qun, it would know what gender it is specifically and would not refer to itself as anything else. Also, Qunari are by culture a multicultural society😂 they accept anyone who follows the Qun, their religion. So if you’re a human and you accept the Qun and follow it, you are now Qunari and you can even become their leader. So for this thing called Taash to be “influenced” into the benefits of multiculturalism, makes zero sense, because if it followed the Qun, it would already know that its people already accept multicultural integration into their society. But I mean WTF do I know😂 I’m just a tourist who played the crap out of the original Dragon Age.

[@buddyjaydubb]

For people who don’t know what sex they are, they sure talk about sex a lot🤷🏾‍♂️🤷🏾‍♂️🤷🏾‍♂️

[@AblyAdam]

That is hilarious & your probably right. It's like learning hype words before knowing the definition. We have social media like tik'tok to thank for brain washing the youth of such crap. They learn all about lgbt trash before knowing the facts of life. Genuinely born man & genuinely born women together only. It's good for people to hear it, sadly the youth are heavily brain washed. Only two genders folks you heard it here folks, get outta here with non binary trash.
