Where did you get the idea? Karlach look like stereotypical barbarian.

Yes, stereotypical barbarian from TRANNY Island maybe.

This is what a stereotypical barbarian looks like.

And this is what Karlach originally looked like.

LMAO, I can't argue with the second picture and I didn't know about it but the first one is just single image and they look like skinny bikini models, isn't one of the defining characteristic of barbarian means being tall and muscular with broadswoard or battelaxe for most people and not pin up models.

Dragon Age and many of the current entertainment media pushing LGBTQ+ and woke narratives doesn't seem to care much about financial loss. From what I can see it seems they will push this agenda no matter what. Getting funding from God knows where.

And there might be a simple reason.

It's basically Friedrich's dialectic process. They are pushing these degenerate ideas as far as they can. When there is enough backlash they town it down a bit. Sudddenly, the degeneracy in games like Baldurs Gate 3 doesn't seem so bad right?

So let's say everything goes back to "normal". That normal will be based on people exposed to bear sex, breast scars and whatever fucked up ideas these weirdo's have about entertainment.

So in the next round (10 years from now) they start implementing some MAP RPG elements. And everyone looses their minds. Suddenly the Woke garbage in games like Veilguard doesn't seem so bad right?

Sure, the games suck. But that is not the point. It's about pushing boundaries. Exposing you to ideas to sanitize you.
You are exactly right.

The reason why we see so much of this bullshit wokeness lately is because the big AAA media companies, gaming, film, etc, are hemorriging money. This started years ago. In order for them to continue they need big investment money. The guys who OWN investment are jewish perverts. The same kinds that hung out with Epstein (Mossad) and Diddy (also Mossad). So these demons promise big money to these companies ONLY IF they promise to inject their ESG rated content into their media.

Blackrock was the biggest funder of Veilguard. It is owned by Larry Fink, a Jew.

It's a vicious cycle now. They are still losing money from the public, but can still stay afloat from money from the investment firms who require this stuff gets put in. These investment firms get paid via the Federal Reserve money printing to keep them going because these firms have tentacles into the lobbyists who get kickbacks from all Congressional spending bills.

That's how it is literally working right now.

Metacritic responds after Dragon Age: The Veilguard review bombing​

"A place of belonging for all fans."

https://www.eurogamer.net/metacritic-responds-after-dragon-age-the-veilguard-review-bombing

Review aggregation site Metacritic has spoken out in response to the ongoing review bombing of Dragon Age: The Veilguard by online commenters upset at the game's inclusive characters and themes.

BioWare's latest Dragon Age epic holds a "generally favourable" review average of 84 on Metacritic, based on a consensus of 54 critics' scores.

But the game's Metacritic user score is listed as just 3.8 out of 10, with a majority of user opinions falling in the starkly negative range. Looking at some of the most recent reviews at the time of writing, these include numerous scores of zero out of 10 for content in the game repeatedly described as "woke".
Metacritic never commented on the Acolyte's user score which is lower than Veilguard's, 3.1 vs 3.8.

Wasn't there just as big a flop as this? That Sony game that got canned because of the woke bullshit in it? I haven't played anything past Origins because it was said back then that Inquisition was dumbed down but how this series has progressed is beyond my wildest dreams.

How do these studios do this to themselves?

Arguably this cartoon depicts an idealized Barbarian female with a Gnome male.

I thought most of the retards will gobble this slop up just because it has Dragon Age in it's name.
Color me surprised.

The retards ARE gobbling the slop. It just turns out they are less than they thought they were.

The people who are playing and enjoy it do exactly this, so it's not like there are no such cases. The game is bad, full stop. We knew this before it came out, we knew this when Inquisition came out. People who like it are the kind who will love every piece of media uncritically. Bioware should be happy such people exist because that's their only audience.

Because his image of what "a barbarian" in a fantasy setting should be is pinup art for paperback pulp books he hasn't read, but has seen pictures of.

Go on then, let's see these real stereotypical barbarian women. I mean, I'm all up for being enlightened, especially when it comes to barbarian women. If not stuff like Conan, He-Man or movies what is this elusive source material?

Depends how you look at it, most of normies are retards.
My point is that the amount of retards that bought it is far below my expectations.
It's a sign that even they have enough of this shit, so we may see some incline in the future.

Not from AAA developers. We might get turn-based games from AAA developers due to the success of BG3, but it's going to be an even worse carbon copy, so it's not like we'll find ourselves in an RPG golden age.

The more of AAA/Quadruple A studios will collapse or move to mobile, better the chance that some new studios may rise up and give us something good.
Or so are my hopes.

I doesn't have to be (graphically) like Baldurs Gate 3, but if we will get something like Arcanum or even Underrail(in more fallout like RPG without a party) then I will be happy.

You should play Veilguard; it has a lot of buttfucking. You seem to like this.

So I finally saw this video that's been making the rounds:



God forgive me for what I'm about to say, but Owlcat has better writing.

Holy hell, there are fanfics written by teenagers that are less cringeworthy than this.

The ridiculous appearance of the player character actually improved the scene, because it makes the whole thing seem like a tongue-in-cheek parody.
