The idea of a group of special people being held in bondage, even in fiction--and everyone being pretty okay with it--was unbearable.

It's re-heated X-men, a story centred around people with power being oppressed by people without power.

I would never blame anyone for borrowing ideas. I wouldn't even blame them for not putting a spin on what they borrow. But to borrow an idea this fucking dumb and somehow make it even more retarded is an unforgivable sin.

So, which beloved series' reboot from EA and/or Activision you want most?

Activision: Arcanum, Krondor, Wizards & Warriors, Quest series, Caesar?

EA: Ultima, Lands of Lore, Dungeon Keeper, Kyrandia, Nox, Bioforge?

Arcanum II: Diesel & Dreadnoughts :M
Diverse steampunk victorian setting - I like it! Synergy of technology and magic, colourful costumes and intricate clockwork gadgets, diverse adventurers of exotic fascinating cultures from all the world, political conspiracies and of course complex dynamics of love sex, hate sex, friendship sex and treachery sex player would encounter throughout the game!

PC Gamer :
Dragon Age: The Veilguard's gameplay reveal emphasises just how terminally out of touch EA and BioWare have become

Game journos have to put out articles like this every once in a while to prove they have some credibility.
PC Gamer already put out 2 articles about Dragon Age 4. One said its basically the end of Dragon Age, and turned it into Mass Effect with swords. The other saying Baldur's Gate 3 is the real Dragon Age sequel.
Its not "every once in a while", its the mainstream opinion.

It's not mainstream, but I do think it's representative of what 40% of the fanbase opinion of the game. (fanbase: non-chud, non-terminally online, relatively casual homo ludens)

Can't wait for the Larian fans and redditors to start complaining about the sex acts not being degenerate enough.

It's just the new trend to suck Larian's dick while shit on Bioware.

Bioware deserve it though. But it's pretty funny to see people praise BG 3's playersexual route while shit on DA 4's "everyone's pansexual" when they are exactly the same thing.

All romance-able companions were playersexual in DA2 already, neither BG3 nor Failguard invented this.
I don't get the appeal of this. In Cyberpunk 2077 romanceable characters had preferences, just like the player. It made these characters more unique and... actually diverse unlike a literal legion of pansexual clones with different skins.
It's more a matter of resources I think. Cyberpunk had only 1 romancible companion for normal male protagonists, which is the only metric that matters, the gypsie hobo Panam.
Which means there was zero choice of romance, which passes for Cyberpunk because it's not an rpg, but otherwise is a limitation.
Of course, when every single one of your companions is an ugly freak, it doesn't help much.

The thing that confuses me is that everyone is a sex hungry freak so they spend retarded amounts of time and energy making everyone romancable at the cost of actual game, then because of modern agenda requirements they make everyone hideous or queer. Some real mixed messages there that makes it seem like there is no direction or even interest in their own story.
I'm not sure that romance has anything to do with sex in this one. Just look at this freakshow, out of 4 "females":
- the middle-aged dwarf
- the tranny
- the weird indian cripple
- the annoying asexual asian
How many people find any of these sexually attractive, I wonder?
