Gothic is an RPG, but... I would say with poorly implemented action elements that allows the player to circumvent RPG development. Was still a great game regardless.

He's arguing whether CRPG=RPG or CRPG refers to a certain kind of computerized RPG(it doesn't)

Man they are really in cope mode on the forums.

"Well, game is a failure... player count is declining and they never even hit 100k"

"but but... its only been out a week, it should grow in a couple more weeks!"

Umm... Sure...

Lawrence O’Donnell talking about how the electoral college is a massive voter suppression technique and it enrages me that we’re still be controlled by white fuckng ENSLAVERS centuries later. All while people refuse to even murmur the words ‘white supremacist.
So not only are they memory-holing that a ****** was president in the US for two terms straight, but also that Trump also won the popular vote which would've landed him a victory even without the electoral college anyways.

Ok.
That’s all it took to make it this close
Landslide victory = very close?

****, I almost feel bad when I imagine how rotted by overdose of copium and their own farts their brains must be.

They always wanted to make a game like this btw.
Beyond non-player characters as ***** representation, I also brought up concerns about Dragon Age‘s binary player character creation options thus far in the series. Picking a “male” or “female” character is mandated, and even within these two limited choices, the options for features, voice, and dress are very cis-centric and normative. “Yeah!” Gaider agreed. “It’s true, yeah.” As one counter-example, I mentioned the Saints Row game series, where a wider range of body diversity and a less binary character generator is available for the player. Is a more open character creation system something he and the BioWare team are considering for the future of Dragon Age? He seemed confident this is likely a change they will initiate in the future, though not for Inquisition, since their attempt to implement such a change came a little too late in the development process:

“When we looked at whether we could implement it late [for Inquisition], there were some technological hurdles we just couldn’t solve. So I think that’s probably something that will come up… Ultimately, if we can do it as an option, and it’s cheap… and it’s something that someone wants to do, I don’t see any reason not to do it… you’ve just gotta make sure that you don’t accidentally construct the framework of your game in way where that wouldn’t be allowed.”

Now that it’s something in the developers’ minds– Dragon Age 4, perhaps? It’s likely too much wishful thinking to hope the delay in Inquisition‘s release date is to set up a system like this. Future games seem like a real possibility, however. Time will tell, but if so, it would offer a great step toward validating transgender and gender non-normative DA players.

Prophetic, right? A decade ago they were already calling out for DA4 to be the ultimate ***** experience.

Anyone who thought this was a success was either very misinformed or peddling some blatant ******** to defend bioware. It probably hasn't broke 1 million copies yet.

Steam support stats are finally back to their normal level. Peaked at 400k on 11/2(which is more than a week after the cawwadoody launch but just a couple days after Veilguard), which is an outstanding value of about 150k.

The game has four races of different heights which can be further customized with a height slider. My thinking is that the devs didn't bother rigging up animations for all of those different heights and just slapped every character from dwarf to qunari to a single animation and just swapped the body for the cutscene. Usually the characters just stand across from each other and talk, but this particular cutscene had two characters passing an item to one another.

amusing, he goes on a rant about how the game is rated M but everything is made for children then mentions it has sex in it

yes, that's how libtards view "mature". Material aimed at children that has sex in it.
