In Bulgarian for example(and probably most slavic languages) gender and sex are one word and the sorosoids need to use loanwords for that and it sounds retarded.
Really? In Serbo-Croat it actually fits very neatly. Gender afaik originates in linguistics and was imported into other disciplines from there so I'm surprised that there's no word in Bulgarian for gendered language especially since all Slavic languages are gendered.
I suspect a lot of languages have it, but no one realizes that the word can be used for people, instead of just linguistically. For example, in Lithuanian, the linguistic gender is called "giminė" - which directly translates to something like kindred, tribe, family, race. I am although surprised now, since I just google translated and one of the translations for giminė is gender, which I would never ever ever associate with the word.
Same here, our word "rod" is also used for tribe, kinship, family etc. and gender.

Varric got hurt doing his plan thing, and I just talked to him and the game did a pop-up to tell me that Varric feels bad because his plan didn't work.


Do you know why Varric is upset?

Actually, let me predict the future a bit.

I think that Bioware will be asked about this in an interview, and they'll say it is an inclusivity feature, meant to help people with autism, who can't understand social cues, connect with the companions.

Enjoy the Revolution! Another revolution around the sun that is.
I just stopped reading the dialogues honestly and pick aggressive each time because all the other responses are lame as fuck

Which is another issue, how badly they are written, but that's another matter
Honestly, why are you even playing this slop? Just because it's new and we must consoome?

We live in a golden age, dozens of phenomenal RPGs on Steam, hundreds of great ones. No way you've played all of them. Flush this garbage into the toilet and go play something that makes you happy instead of miserable.

No, Im disappointed, just when I bought, installed and started the game it crashed and got this message.

View attachment 57024

Left the message on the Steam forum, waiting for help.
It's not too late to get a refund. Just saying.
The game looks interesting, gonna wait for a response before refunding.

Nicely done, sir! :salute:

This is a fine game too.

Man, this social media shit is quite something.

I have just noticed this is game is not inclusive enough, there is NO BALD hair option. So I did what any citizen interested in the benefit of gaming and humanity as whole would do, I went to Reddit. Turns out I am banned from r/dragonage. Which I can only assume happened because of the downvotes I've been spreading these past two days. I did not know this was a thing.

Oh shit I didn’t know Drova was out already, now I have something to do tonight.
I don't think anyone noticed your screenshot shows the .exe of the game which isn't Vileguard the Troonguard.
I saw the words “I bought” and went into some kind of chud trance. Forgive me markec, I should’ve known better.

The Codex is a fucking disappointment.
I did not buy and did not download.

But, I did open this site just now after a while to see the reactions to Bioware's new masterpiece.

Apparently, almost everyone is so eager to play it (to see why it is bad, I'm sure) that one gets the impression it's a great game.

Yeah, we all believe you're enduring it. Must be pure torture. :smug:
