this was my first introduction to Generator Rex, to Rex Salazar specifically. I saw it for like a few minutes when I was 8, but these scenes burned themselves into my brain, and in another 10 or so years I re-discovered the show, became obsessed, and memorized every scene from every episode (except the prank one, because that episode was a mistake). Why?

because this scene permanently impacted how I saw heroes. they aren't there to beat the bad guy. they're there to save people. and they do it not because they are forced to, or guilted into it. they do it because they want to. because they care if people get hurt, even if those people are complete strangers.

these scenes are largely responsible for my disdain for modern live-action superhero spectacles, where the heroes "save the day", but leave countless civilians dead.

it is also the reason why I have come to love shows like Justice League Unlimited:

Or Invincible:

or the new show, My Adventures with Superman:

they GET IT. they GET WHY SAVING PEOPLE IS IMPORTANT.

because at the end of the day, it's not beating up the villain of the week that is important. it's saving lives.

This, right here, of all the things The Veilguard did wrong - and they’ve done wrong a lot of things - this right here is the worst thing they’ve done.

Because they gave us an entire expansion pack dedicated to the fact that the Darkspawn are as much the victims of the Old Gods and the blight as the rest of the world.

They have spent an entire expansion pack, HOURS of gameplay, to show us that the Darkspawn can be reasoned with, that they crave freedom, that they can be freed from the yolk of the song, that they can be helped, where at the end you can side with the guy who is helping them and let them be.

They gave us all this only, at the end, at the culmination of the story of the blight and Darkspaw, guve us 3 sentences to basically say “ah nah. Fuck them”

I joke sometimes Justice For The Architect but now I say it with pure sincerity, as seriously as I can. Justice for the Architect, justice for Dragon Age Awakening and justice for the player base who invested hours upon hours into a storyline only to be told “yeah we’re not actually doing that”.
