I still hate baldurs gate 3 just as much as I did when I first heard about it and saw the cast of homos and uggos and no matter how bad it gets, I pledge to keep hating it with all of the strength I have in my heart for the rest of my life.

Is EA in the room with us right now?
Apparently once a quarter at Bioware there's a mandatory EA Town Hall that everyone has to attend, where they listen to some middle-aged lady lecture about checking privilege and DEI.

I don't want to spoil it. You have to see it for yourself. Timestamped for your convenience.

It's been days - days - that we've been mining this game for cringe. Eventually you think the well is dry but this thing goes all the way down to bedrock.

Depressing, certainly, but once in a while you do find a little nugget of wisdom on the Steam forums:

Still skirting the issue, which is that there is no such thing as transgenderism.

First, your perception of yourself, even if i were to actually believe you are a man trapped in a woman's body, which in most cases i don't (and i would consider it abnormal even if it was true), is not reality. Thus the first fallacy is this idea that your subjectivity defines objective reality in some way. "I feel" is not a conclusive argument for what is or isn't. The fact you "feel" that you are a cat doesn't mean that you actually are a cat and i don't want any of that shit to be normalized in society.

Second, modern science is not anywhere near advanced enough to actually alter the physical sex of a person. Surgery doesn't turn you into the opposite sex, it just makes you into a mutilated freak and i'm under no obligation to accept this transhumanist shit.

It would be one thing if we lived in a world of magic where you could turn into the opposite sex by casting a spell, but we don't. This is all the more evil considering they want to subject children to this insanity.

So for me this trans crap being accepted by society is the highest form of Orwellian, dystopian evil you can think of, and while i generally tend to hate the sin and not the sinner, if you are at all trying to normalize this shit yes, i'm actually gonna hate you as well. You are fostering evil on society, am i supposed to look at that with sympathy and understanding?

It would be one thing if you were just doing your thing and merely ask not to be bothered, but that isn't what's actually happening, is it? You are trying to force your deviated world view on society and that makes you an enemy in my view.

I like how we began with elf racism because we hate the traditional representation of elves, but we went full circle and now elves are special and better than you again.

I get the impression this whole "gender politics" thing is some lame attempt to fill the hole left by the eradication of religious doctrine from daily life in the west.
Except they're too dumb to be IRL Slaanesh cultists.

Regarding C point, I had discussion with a friend of mine, both of us are not Americans but his point is how Americans push to diversity in media are only limited to LGBTQ and nothing else, because white people can be gay so that why they will push for a lot of representation for gay people unlike pushing for other minorities, like how there very few movies/TV shows and games where the main lead is east asian, south asian or Latin amercian even though percentage wise they are bigger population compared to trasngender people.

I see you're a television ignorer (as you should be).

Kind of same thing with BG3. In the first 2 hours you get tadpoles, illithiads, githanki, demons, space ship, a dragon, druids, tieflings, evil cult etc. Modern devs just can not write a good, coherent story and believable characters. It's that simple. I mean even IWD that focused mostly on combat had much better writing and plot then nowadays garbage.
