In the discussion about Bioware, or perhaps our favorite industry in general, too much space is devoted to ideology and politics, as if we were talking about people who have some views beyond Twitter slogans, and not enough about what weak pussies they are. We've gotten used to their baby faces and screams, but this isn't normal. They are not woke because they have read Gramsci, they like woke because the simplest challenges in life terrify them.
In other words, even something as mildly morally challenging and macabre as DA:O's Blood Magic is too much for them. They want to run around the meadows with a rainbow flag in their hands. And this is not hyperbole:
It's weird that Bioware holds this cringe up as a hopeful religious group bonding moment they're proud of when they've spent the last two games and half a dozen terrible books shitting on, invalidating and subverting every single religion in the setting and making every religious character look like suckers and fools. Or in Leliana's case making them pragmatic atheists.
I'm was wondering about this too. Ultimately, I came to the conclusion that the fact that they put a Powerful Black Woman in charge of Chantry paradoxically forced them to treat her differently. If I remember correctly, she was some sort of well of feminine wisdom or something.
Andraste reincarnated, like a black Jesus. There would be a high threshold for making her look like a fool.
Or it could still be that since the writers are probably all atheist, they can't help but to inject their own doubt and desire to tear down all institutions of organised religion. It comes naturally. Only the "emergent" religiosity is acceptable, if it creates social bonds between groups that would otherwise be indifferent or hostile towards one another. Humanism that rejects institutions.
Oh my bad , the characters that people really liked before were.. not done on purpose. The new ones are for real, on god, done intentionally

Sounds like Bioware has the BG3 audience by the balls.

This honestly explains why so many evil paths are not well done. The writers morally oppose it. That's actually crazy to me. Or maybe they're just lazy and they're lying about why they didnt want to make a cool class because it would take effort.

You don't need to make a "muhahaha evil" character to have an interesting blood mage. For example, imagine that the main character is in a situation where he either uses blood magic or someone important to him, like his mother, dies. And after using it, he starts being persecuted, having to flee and do gradually more and more bad things to survive. It can be an interesting story.
And his name is Jowan.
Then why would you take that strategy away and replace it with this?

They were busy congratulating themselves about moving further and further away from tactical gameplay to an action particle effects orgy.
lol you watched this garbage
