Exactly can’t believe these guys are blinded by nostalgia, you can still go and play these games that’s not a problem, but BioWare sucks now.
The Veilguard sucked and was more about some writers non-binary conversation with her traditional immigrant parents than Dragons, that got through the chopping block just showing they have no idea how to make a good game anymore. Anyone with a brain could see that would be cringe and not immersive.
In Taash’s case, for some they don’t like any lgbtq elements in their game (who miss that those were in the franchise since the beginning)
For others, it’s that the concepts of a nonbinary Qunari were handled so poorly in implementation, with so little nuance and dismissing existing lore, that it was laughable.
It really felt like blatant propaganda rather than genuine storytelling and character exploration. They was such a poorly written character.
And I know people like to say that story is optional, but they make it pretty clear that doing all of the character side stories is kind of essential for being successful in the end mission.
Who the hell plays and rpg and skips the character side missions. It might be optional, but if you are an rpg player that shit is definitely not optional and often the best parts of the genre.
It wasn’t “more about” no reason to over exaggerate. The non-binary character’s story is majorly just a side quest. You can ignore it. In fact, you can just leave Taash at the lighthouse and never bring them into battle.
Like, Lonesome road DLC in New Vegas sucks, but i ain’t saying the whole game is shit because of one optional side quest.

I mean, when was the last "timeless" game they made?
