So, what are the chances that Josh Sawyer gets his historical RPG now?

Scokel are an outspoken queer writer who are pushing for minority representation in games, so a certain subgroup on the Codex are eager to treat them like a chew toy.

I'm more interested in seeing examples of what the "best remaining writer at Obsidian" have produced, if only to judge the state of the company.

Alex was sooo cool, thank you so much for writing such amazing characters like Ydwin and Vatnir and helping write the Deadfire DLC's! You added so much love and beauty and scariness to Eora!

(Also sorry for using the wrong pronouns for Alex during my original post showing off their tumblr here, I never spotted their preferred pronouns when I originally posted about them!)

For ydwin i do agree,it is maybe the best character in the game,but Vatnir is shit. He is annoying coward and shit bag in general,also he have like two lines in the whole DLC. I laugh my ass of at the irony of recruiting that smudge of shit and a few minutes later he is a demigod level of powerful,20 level ups and equipped with legendary relics.

Yes, he is an annoying cowardly shitbag, which is what makes him a fun character. It's not what you'd expect at first glance, but his personality is still influenced by the life he's led. He even follows Chris Avellone's patented "must flatter the player" rule twice over- first when he praises you as a harbinger of death, and again later when he says he sent for you because you're a hero who gets the job done

Didn't Carrie write Ydwin? and Alex wrote Serafen..
Nope, Ydwin was Scokel too. Carrie only wrote Aloth, she was too busy leading.
