Woah, thanks for the videos guys! Youtube was kind enough to start recommending me Dragon Age content now, big fan of this "Dark Stalker Knight Wolf" guy channel:

True Clan are similar to Moon Clan, but have called themselves True Clan, because they find themselves closest to their true wild and lycan nature. They are a completely peaceful clan, never use fire, and often can be finding resting under waterfalls. They find the change into their true forms is the greatest gift of all. They are a very old but very wise clan, and are the most nomadic of all clans. They are truly one-of-a-kind. The leader to this clan is a male silver wolf, and can often be found in forested areas, rivers, oceans, mountains, deserts, and meadows.

His 20 views 20 minute furry rants about how successful Dragon Age totally was really shine a light on the entire fucking thing, the sound of his voice has given me diabetes, but it was fucking worth it.

I should fucking sue YouTube for this sort of shit.
brb going to watch this "Dark Stalker Knight Wolf" guy out of morbid curiosity

After thinking about it, how does this bharv thing even make sense?

If someone isn't an obese landwhale or actually disabled then 10 push ups is pretty much effortless and I can't see how randomly dropping and performatively performing a set of push ups makes it less about the person than saying sorry does.

The whole idea is just absolutely pathetic from any logical perspective.
It reminds me of a meme with a ripped of guy saying "How did I get like this? Well, whenever I did X I had to do 10 push-ups" or something to that effect. It's kind the of internet challenge/joke. But how we get from there to this "bharv" cringe "apology"? My guess is someone who came up with this idea has problems. But you can guess that from pretty much the entirety of Taash's character.

Bioware has perfected the art of producing such shitty games that each new one makes all the previous ones look like masterpieces. This has been going on since 2010.

Everyone's still talking about this failure? I'd think a healthy person would have gone back to playing the older good games they enjoy such as games with Gnomes and games that have a commodity trading system.

This fucking millennial writing triggers me to no end I can't even put it into words

Not even in general, I'm talking about this specifically

Mass effect Andromeda had a coffee line in its intro sequence and that's as far as I got in that game my hatred for this knows no bounds

That should be this one. Funnily enough, the original comic is quite fitting for Veilguard and BG3 alike:

Their brilliant idea for making a fantasy game that appeals to the "young modern audience" was to have characters that talk like... the young modern audience.

Because everyone knows back in 2009 young people talked just like Morrigan, and that's why Origins was such a hit. And further back in 2001 young people naturally spoke like Gandalf.

The incompetence of tranny devs is staggering
They were pretty competent at delaying the game's development time for years and years to keep collecting a paycheck and got to add their woke ideology at the same time. :hmmm: Unfortunately we have to admit Corrine is an INTJ mastermind and we're all dancing to the puppet master's strings

We know nothing about real sales until EA announces it, you dumbfuck.
When will that be?

About a month before Mass Effect 5 in the hopes that lifetime sales are high enough to claim "from the studio behind the bestselling Dragon Age: The Veilguard!"

They'll need to dig deeper : "From the studio behind the legendary Baldur's Gate!" to try and ride Larian's unrelated success.

Alas, it is.

The game really has nothing but spite for everything in the setting that came before it and it always amuses me when shady organisations that murder, torture and steal are sanitised to be overly inclusive.

That voice from the main character sounds like a freak pedophile. So resetera can finally be represented.

Meanwhile, in Origins:


"In Antiva being a crow gets you wealth, gets you women, or men" is extremely pozzed and woke. The only difference between these older woke games and the newer woke "games" is that the newer woke games go out of their way to write generate an entire storyline about it their entire "game" focuses on while older "games" either just made gay sex scenes or just had it in a phrase or two in a longer monologue.
I like Origins, but I'm not sure I'll ever be able to go back and replay it again, 'cause the Dragon Age name is so cringe and dirty now.
It was always terrible.
