Watched some reviews in 2x speed while doing other stuff. In nutshell

Charname with pink/purple/blue hair = the best game ever!
Charname with brown/blonde/red hair = game's ****

Interesting.

Bioware, 1998: Companions can be incompatible with each other and will actively antagonize each other until they come to blows and fight to the death. There is no 'solving' their 'problem', people are not clay for you to mold. You must accept that not everyone will like or tolerate everyone else.
Bioware, 2024:

lol what an ugly game

Indeed...

[Unhelpful Contrarian]

How is this a world where we're not allowed to just hang these people from the nearest convenient tree?

Nope worse. It appears you can’t be evil in the game, heck you can’t even be an *******. Here are your options

Nice

Nice but jokey

Nice but slightly stern



I had zero expectations but somehow they managed to be worse then what imagine.

[rusty_shackleford]

No, you can't be good in the game.

[UltraFan123]

So basically, you're forced to be good towards the ****** companions and bad towards everyone else who isn't a freak?

Does check out with the worldview of the devs. kek

It would appear you're not allowed to be remotely abrasive or aggressive to anyone. There was not a drop of testosterone in the building when they made this game, and there's no possible way it could appeal to anyone with a drop more than that.

Your character just plays mother hen to a bunch of gay ******** children, there I spoiled the game.

What's the difference between blood magic and necromancy? Is blood magic legal now?

I can’t wait to see the sales numbers for this game. Guessing it going to be underwhelming ( 2 to 3 million unit’s) I would want it to flop with concords numbers but it’s unlikely since it’s a established franchise with decent size fanbase.

Bioware, 2024:

perfect example

"wow there's something big happening that means we should all just get along HAHA let's joke about him being a hired killer which completely goes against my beliefs and I view him as the equivalent of a human darkspawn "

In Origins? Blood magic uses blood as catalyst and is much more potent but also deadly, you can enslave enemies, use blood as reagent to cast powerful spells and blood bend enemies. Necromancy is the spirit tree. Sadly BioWare """""necromancy"""""" don't have anything interesting from BG1/2. No summons, no OHK spells, no nasty "debuffs"...

Shame to since like the colour but now it’s associated with ***** and gay ****.

A 6? Seriously? Yeah... no.

[UltraFan123]

I think I'm starting to understand why some settings use purple to portray the concept of "corruption". lol

[RangerBoo]

I will say that Fleek is right at the end. All these game journalist are nothing more then word prostitutes selling their opinions for free swag and to promote their political activism. We are going to be seeing a massive amount of cope from them next week and, if Trump is allowed to win the election, you will be **** sure that they will tie in Dragon Age's failure with Trump winning for some reason. It is going to be really funny.

[Vergil]

People posting about how games journalists are paid for and dishonest like it's a new revelation in 2024 wew.

You can't spell "ignorant" without "IGN"!

[RangerBoo]

A 6 in today's day and age is more or less a 3-4. I personally hate the number scores. It is better, at least I think, to just recommend a game or not like what Steam Curators like RPGHQ's does. As we have seen with IGN the game jounroscum are never honest with the number scores. When it comes to just recommending a game you have to tell people why you would recommend a game to someone and these journoscum know that nobody would want to play something they would recommend as they would just recommend something on how much gay and ***** sex is in the game and they know that nobody wants to see that.

lol never change Eurotrash

I just don't understand how these ********** urinalists still have jobs ? All they do is write **** and are completely not trustworthy, from US to EU.

Are they funded by the government or something ? How can garbage like this still make money ?

[ArcaneLurker]

reminder that game journos have openly admitted to giving higher review scores if they thought giving a 'fair' review meant people might be fired btw
go look up the review scores for deathloop

everyone knows what bioware is facing when this flops

God forbid that incompetent idiots lose their jobs. lmfao

EDIT:

"lineage"


this isn't korea this ain't the blood pledge, those are fuckin races

What I find odd is that they don't replace "race" with something that even makes sense like "species". It always has to be some fancy "lineage" or "ancestry".

"Species" is even more problematic than "Race." They're trying to escape Taxonomy and Genetics.

[UltraFan123]

I think they indeed are, yes. BlackRock and Vanguard are the names I have seen the most in these discussions.

I figure the only people listening to them are Boomers looking to buy **** for their grandkids.

Devs journos and publishers have circled the wagons and are all defending bioware from the evil... *checks my notes* ... customers.
Interesting strategy.

That's even for current year journos extreme
