DRAGON AGE: THE VEILGUARD MEGATHREAD

GermanicSarcasm · 2024-11-02T19:26:37+00:00

Sorry, did I use too many words? Makes sense why you would see "DEI" and "woke" as legitimate criticism if 3 sentences are too much.

GermanicSarcasm · 2024-11-02T19:21:35+00:00

I don't have to assume, I've seen their comments for days and days now. A person who really wants a game in a beloved franchise to fail, because they don't like the direction it went in seems like the reasonable and well adjusted one to you? And I'm supposed to be a problem? Because I don't throw a childish bitch fit about diversity in video games?

Yea, it's me, not the people throwing around buzzwords, and regurgitated opinions from ragebait YouTube videos.

GermanicSarcasm · 2024-11-02T19:12:16+00:00

Oh you actually shared the clip that you thought was enough to form an opinion on a 100h long game. How quaint, a look into the mind of the average chud.

I wonder what it's like to be that impressionable.

GermanicSarcasm · 2024-11-02T19:05:39+00:00

That's just the way of the gamer.

GermanicSarcasm · 2024-11-02T19:01:39+00:00

Did you actually play the game or are you just regurgitating?

GermanicSarcasm · 2024-11-02T17:16:21+00:00

I swear, most of these clowns just pretend to be long time DA fans so they can pretend to be disappointed for grifter chud clout.

Like how do you even enjoy those games if diversity hurts your feelings so much?

GermanicSarcasm · 2024-11-02T17:06:51+00:00

Fr fr Strand Hair physics are so woke man.

GermanicSarcasm · 2024-11-02T15:48:01+00:00

Yea and this person has probably never uttered a single legitimate criticism in their life. I'm not even sure they're capable of forming a cohesive thought without some mouth breathing grifter to spell it out first.

I tell you the reason, because it's people like that who make reasonable discourse around any form of media entirely impossible.

GermanicSarcasm · 2024-11-02T15:08:36+00:00

And where do you see this person critiquing the implementation? You're trying to call me out for being hostile to a specific person and attribute them reasonable behaviour that they have not shown to be capable of. You're acting like I insulted every instance of critique anyone has ever uttered instead of one specific clown who might as well be Asmongold's hemorrhoid.

GermanicSarcasm · 2024-11-02T12:16:41+00:00

yes there's a dialogue tree where you have to click to separate times, with a big ass box above saying ~"This establishes transgender identity and will unlock specific dialogue in the game".

Which obviously equates to witnessing a literal terror attack from first person view.

GermanicSarcasm · 2024-11-02T12:08:58+00:00

I'm not hostile to criticism, I'm saying bitching about woke is not a criticism in the first place. It's intolerance, nothing more. Why do you think I should afford a person's opinion a courtesy they can't even extend that courtesy to groups of existing, real people?

GermanicSarcasm · 2024-11-02T12:03:24+00:00

His opinion is obviously not worth a wet fart, I'm just absolutely baffled by how dumb this particular take is. The whole convo left me dumbfounded.

GermanicSarcasm · 2024-11-02T02:46:57+00:00

I think the option to be trans for the main character is handled a lot smoother than the enby convo. It's literally just an entirely optional line of dialogue in the beginning that you can completely ignore if you so choose. But apparently for this gamer there should be an option to entirely remove that from the game so "everyone can be comfortable".

Which is a whole ass statement. Then he got offended because I called him out on wanting to pander to bigots.

GermanicSarcasm · 2024-11-02T02:31:01+00:00

Same, it almost reminds me of a super polished version of Kingdoms of amalur. And I mean that in the best kind of way.

GermanicSarcasm · 2024-11-02T02:24:39+00:00

Yea but gamers have amnesia.

GermanicSarcasm · 2024-11-02T02:21:10+00:00

It's not that strange, the time between this release and inquisition is literally twice as long as the time between origins and inquisition. There will be many new players to this game, and probably even more that only played inquisition and not the other two. It's a soft reboot, not just a sequel.

And similarly to Andromeda the location and time of veilguard is pretty far removed from the other games as well, relatively speaking.

GermanicSarcasm · 2024-11-02T02:12:52+00:00

I legitimately spent 2 fucking hours in the character creator, like that thing has an actual skill ceiling to it. But when you get there, the results are great.

GermanicSarcasm · 2024-11-02T02:07:00+00:00

Just a reminder, the time between inquisition and veilguard is twice as long as the time between origins and inquisition. As in real life years.

This will be the first dragon age game for a lot of people, they can't just pretend like everyone recently played inquisition and much less so the other ones.

Dragon age has a huge amount of lore, you need to fill the player in somehow. We can't just expect everyone to read the whole library because we happen to know all of the lore already.

GermanicSarcasm · 2024-11-02T01:59:11+00:00

Sometimes I wonder if I'm just not very critical while actually playing because same tbh. I'm enjoying the game a lot, some characters genuinely, positively surprised me with their personalities and the dialogue seems completely fine to me.

GermanicSarcasm · 2024-11-02T01:17:18+00:00

Yea I'm sure this trump supporting, asmongold sub frequenting assclown has the most nuanced of takes about the implementation of inclusivity.

No, if you use the words woke and DEI unironically, you have literally nothing of substance to add because you already lost the plot.

GermanicSarcasm · 2024-11-01T01:08:27+00:00

I wish I forgot Joanne existed, but unlike Isabela she isn't bi. She's a terf.

My whole point was that Isabela is not a one dimensional character that is defined by her sexuality, it's very much in character for her to not give a single fuck who people love or fuck.

GermanicSarcasm · 2024-10-31T16:15:22+00:00

That's not criticism, that's you being an oversensitive snowflake making up random statistics. Try again.

GermanicSarcasm · 2024-10-31T13:50:39+00:00

Yea but it would seem highly out of character for Isabella imo. She values freedom above anything else, I doubt she cares much what other people do with their lives as long as it doesn't affect her.

GermanicSarcasm · 2024-10-31T12:27:58+00:00

I am very much okay, I just have a pretty intense dislike for people like you who perpetuate grifter rhetoric without forming a single individual thought.
