#bioware ciritcal
Note
At the very least I'm hoping that more people come to their senses because Bioware is really not worth defending. There's way too many folks on Twitter that still defend them even when they fuck up when I think that as fans we deserve better than scraps and half measures. Granted alot of the Twitter side is home to a lot of faux progressive suckups who worship the ground BW walk on and keep giving them way too many chances.
It’s not just on Twitter, but yeah, mood. Too much of that in almost all areas of pop culture tbh. Human fuckin’ beings. 🙄
#ask#anonymous#I feel you bro#bioware ciritcal#dragon age#idk why people are fucking allergic to criticism like you CAN like a thing and criticize it and if it keeps getting worse & you don’t it’ll#become utterly without value eventually or you’ll lose your own ability to think critically by forcing yourself to defend things you know#are bad until your own abilities are ruined. : / ‘if doesn’t matter’ yes it does??? boycotts are a thing? also like criticism alone works?#UD fandom was obsessed with a not canon queer couple in a game w only gets & the devs in their next big release made a canon queer pair#everyone went @ Watch Dogs for having a white man pain lead and killing off the woc for his story & in their sequel the MC is a black guy#and 3/4 supporting cast are also pov & that was a tripple A title. it /absolutely/ matters. fundamentally even#say what you will about Qunatic Dream every time a game comes out people complain about the race rep and the women and every game they do#more and better race rep and women like are they perfect? no. but compare DBH to Indigo Prophecy and tell me criticism did nothing#like it’s so simple. if you demand they do better if they keep wanting money from you? they will#if you do not? they will keep getting worse bc worse is what /they/ want and are and unless acted upon by an outside force that will not#change. how do you think game studio staff get diverse writing rooms? mostly they don’t pick them out of a personal desire!! it’s when they#get raked over the coals for their failures of being /not/ diverse and are under scrutiny and pressure to do better#this is /literally/ how it works. some of you act like you have no fucking idea how hard the people older than you have faught for what we#have now. do you think queer couples on TV just happened? do you think the poc leads were just studios fucking??? getting nicer? NO. people#faught for this! they suffered and struggled and came out victorious! and if we do not keep pushing? we lose ground. this is not a battle#that is over bitch. an improved situation is not an end to the war. have the people in /power/ improved? no. and that means the only thing#between representation in media and a hellscape is us. is the people. creators. fans. staff. all of us#fighting and keeping the pressure on. demanding action matters. /not/ giving shit media money of views or buzz? matters#people in power care about money and control. hit them where it hurts

To be fair it's not just Anders that cops shitty treatment but also Isabela. She gets slutshamed so much in game it's unreal!
I mean I haven't ever tried to claim he's the only one getting shit; I've done my fair share of rants about 19 hundred things--I just talk about him the most because I'm in love with him. I love Isa, but they did do their fair share of bs to her. They did their fair share of bs to everyone. I don't think they only dislike my boy and arbitrarily do so or something, I think they're bad people with bad ethics, and it causes them to do messed up stuff to the vast majority of their cast and it gets progressively worse esp in Inquisition.
