getting all of the banter dialogue for dorian and bull so they can be a couple in dai is so... ugh. there is some genuinely wonderful stuff to explore in their dynamic, with iron bull abandoning the qun and dorian leaving tevinter and what it means to have done that and finding themselves as people, but. christ. the fetishization and oversexualization of the qunari in da is fucking hair tearingly painful, and it is at its most obvious with iron bull and dorian. really hoping that something changes for the taash romance, but i am,, kind of doubtful.

#dai #dragon age #dragon age inquisition #not really sure what to tag this as. because i DO enjoy adoribull. i DO. but holy fuck.#uhhh i guess i'll tag characters. again i like adoribull this isnt anti-adoribull but it is me clenching my fist and scowling #dorian pavus #iron bull #the iron bull #its not Just them. its how iron bull is written in general. its how the qunari are so widely percieved to be animalistic and hulking and #violent. its even sera's little comments on specifically finding qunari women attractive because of their physical traits of being #big and muscle-y. and then the tamassrans and how the qunari dress. its not just One #of these things. but its all of them added up together that makes it uncomfortable.#not even including the rest of the mess of the qun and how fucked that is. bioware has fucked up so bad with how they present the qunari an #even the elves. its so. ugh.#ignore me im complaining #bioware-critical #i guess #also generally anxious on how theyre going to handle taash being (spoiler) but i'll wait to give more thoughts on that
