This is focusing on the wrong aspects entirely. You could have the option to burn down cities with blood magic channeled from the life force of six million elves, and Vilefart would still be a colossal pile of turds because it's hideous, trash gameplay, and ultra-woke.
Those two concepts are mutually exclusive.
It's very much mutually inclusive, provided the six million elves are all white supremacist bigots.

Not that it was needed but it's further proof that game developers and their sycophants spend more time trying to snuff out different opinions than they do actually trying to create a product with broad, mass appeal.

It's extremely easy to make a fantasy game that sells well just by leaning into the core European fantasy tropes with a decent amount of grey morality and grit. Even complete normies lap up grey morality as seen by the mainstream success of shows like Game of Thrones and The Walking Dead. It's the danger hairs who almost exclusively throw a fit over such elements.

Well they're activists, and activists can only serve you one truth. They don't want to offer you food for thought like ordinary creatives would.

Feeding people's imaginations or giving them choice can lead to wrongthink, you know. Can't have that.

Hmm. I wonder what questline he's talking about :thinking:

The people who made this game can't understand the fact that a minority (elves) can be bigots. And even if they are bigots, their logic would be that they're righteous bigots.
