People are really freaking out about nothing here to be honest. A faux case of mansplaining, a mediocre joke about all goblins looking alike, and a trans person.

Oh fuck off.. Who knows what other cancerous things are in there.
Game has only been out 5 minutes and already Minsc is spouting crap about GamerGate. (Which you conveniently missed in your rant.. so many examples of garbage you can't even list them all.)

I didn't see any complaints about Minsc so I didn't list any or more likely didn't understand the connection between what he was saying and what you are complaining about. Just seems like a bunch of people that can't take a joke.

Didn't really pay attention when picking second line (monsters lol) :lol: felt more like insult

homognome lol

Not to mention after 2d or 3d banter I already have an option to blatantly state to SoD Cassandra that I am in love with her, even if she has daughter, but she is also lesbian amirite? :shittydog:

I really hope they fail to achieve any measurable sucess with this abomination.

The last thing we need is for beamdog to have arguments for a Bg sequel and for getting their hands on the original Fallout games.

Well the BG1ee sold like 1 mill. copies, and since this is apparently a dlc and you have to own the first game to play it, I don't think sales will ever go over 500.000... which is still way more than Beamdog deserves, though.

To play this game I would have to repurchase a game I already own and then on top of that buy an expansion to a game that I didn't like that much (BG2 crushes BG1) that may or may not be shit. I'll have to wait for the cloud of butthurt to settle before finding out. Finally, I would have to be dense enough to Day 1 play an RPG in the year 2016. All right pal.

Having NeoGAF's owner as your avatar is quite fitting.

Oh, Beamdog forums.

My post:
I hope Amber Scott can learn to step off of her pedestal. She seems to think (from her interviews and such) that she is a magnificent writer and everyone who doesn't like her writing is a bigot. Hopefully she can be humble enough to learn from this debacle and we can get better writing without any characters who are shoved into the game in a botched attempt at inclusiveness.

Response:
Darn women, getting all uppity and opinionated and stuff! Amber literally said none of those things. She pointed out a couple of legitimate sexists tropes in BGI and said that SoDs writing would not incorporate them. That's it. It's Gamergate losers who are trying to paint her as a radical feminist boogeywoman.

Have they no self awareness?

Thing is, everything is sexist to them. I recently got Safana with me as a NPC. She seems to be as a very capable, seductive and foxy character (clever like a fox) with great skills in her carreer as a thief. 1 Sexy thief among 20 i n the cast, where non really is as "Bioware deep" as some would want them to be, makes her go apeshit. Funny.

Its not only her, 99% of video game writers think they are all the shit until the write their first book and it's complete and utter crap.

What these writers fail to understand is that if they were good writers... They wouldn't be making a career out of writing for video games.

Jesus Christ Immortal is a gigantic 4chan faggot kiddo.

As much as I hate faggots and SJW, Immortal is at least as annoying.

I like how the "sexist" tropes in question were inclusive SJW shit back then. Bioware were doing social justice at the time but now they are evil horrible misogynists.

They are running out of oppressors at this rate, hetero white males are becomming boring at this point. Wouldn't be surprised if some day they are gone, go to Venezuela Jim Jones style and commit mass suicide to go to a better furry planet.
