I know people like to harp on Taash, but all the characters in general were written poorly

I never got why people were upset at her character when none of the other characters felt like actual people either.

They were all boring ass npcs.

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.
