I hate that game, I hate that I hate that game and I hate that the chuds jumped on the hate train for all the wrong reasonings

I do blame the BioWare for throwing out almost everything that made the series great and it damn sure wasn’t the diversity that made it bad

I just feel… kinda awful… empty. most my top 5 games ever are BioWare games

This exactly. It's not like getting rid of the diversity would've magically made the game a masterpiece lol, diversity had nothing to do with it.

The fantasy RPG that lets you have gender neutral pronouns sold 25 million copies, it's rarely ever do to with diversity.

Ya I mean, you’ll always have weirdos that mod Wyll to be white or whatever. Theyre just a lost cause, but the issue well and truly comes when you’ve got diversity AND a bad game. It opens to door for people to do the whole “go woke go broke” stupid shit.

Last of us 2 comes to mind, I still loved the gameplay and the levels, very on par with the first game, but the story was just NOT as good and then all the forced media interaction with Druckman trying to tell the fans they weren’t sophisticated enough to understand the point of the narrative.
