It only just now occurred to me the irony of the infamous barve scene, because this game is deadnaming by calling itself an RPG.
Anyway, Dunkey doing his thing with the game. Got a kick out of it because he cracked up in sheer bewilderment at the same moments I did:
Also, this is certainly interesting, glancing over at /r/dragonage:

As someone who is NB I cried… not in a good way
>Of course I want representation, all I have ever wanted in my life is to feel normal. I wanted to feel like there was nothing wrong with me. But Taash’s storyline was so poorly executed, I am so deeply disappointed in BioWare for letting our community down like this. I was so disappointed I actually cried.

>In Inquisition, there was a specific Qunari term made up to refer to Trans people. While i'm not convinced with everything Krem said in Inquisition like not using magic to change gender, at the end of the day It was optional to ask about it to him.
>But here, they just throw it in our face and give us no agency over it. Even if they force us to experience that quest, the least they could do is make it immersive and make the character express how they actually feel. Not just say "I can be whoever i want and you are supposed to accept that", If you misgender me you should punish yourself with physical exercise". It comes across as forced statement with nothing backing it up and ofc people will hate that.
>I can only hope none of this forced representation is in the next Mass Effect.
