Also, Arcanum had an actual race war quest, and a quest about uncovering that vile je.. gnomish deep state that had all the royal women forcibly x bred with ogres out of sheer racial spite and hatred. Incredibly based. Even if this game had all the right aesthetics and music, it still would be far away from truly being a 'spiritual successor'
That quest was written by Leonard Boyarsky who is Jewish. It was a shitposting Jewish flex.Element wrote: ↑ February 2nd, 2024, 10:41Also, Arcanum had an actual race war quest, and a quest about uncovering that vile je.. gnomish deep state that had all the royal women forcibly x bred with ogres out of sheer racial spite and hatred.

Think Boyarsky has significant east european ancestry, he even slipped up and said he's Russian in the big interview with Cain. Don't think that quest was consciously and deliberately planned out to be what it became.Roguey wrote: ↑ February 2nd, 2024, 11:40That quest was written by Leonard Boyarsky who is Jewish.

Reminder that the writer for Arcanum was one Edward R. G. Mortimer, who was hired because he wrote for Judges guild.
Now go google 'judges guild controversy'.

I think people read anti-semitic things into it at one point because you know, unfortunately in fantasy, gnomes have big noses and are short and they like money - which didn't come from us and I don't know if that was racist when it first was was developed - but that's a fantasy thing but I thought you know first of all we didn't think that far into it and I did think about that though when I was developing the quest and I'm like you know what I have the perfect defense about that because I'm Jewish, so I can, because it's not meant it wasn't intended, but I did I did have in the back of my mind "I wonder if people are going to read this as some kind of weird conspiracy thing."

gnomes loving money is almost entirely unique to arcanum, that's one of the traits that stayed with dwarves in the dwarf/gnome split.Roguey wrote: ↑ February 2nd, 2024, 16:10Timestamped

You wouldn't see a jew working with Todd Howard back in the day, oh no. That's why Elder Scrolls will always be based, and Fallout was never good
This would be Phyre's design if Paradox hired former Troika devs to make VTMB 2 instead of TCR.
We can only conclude some people become more retarded as they get older.
