As a DA nerd, I have every reason to hate Anthem. But I just cant find that energy. Its just sad. An ego too big, a team overworked, a fandom ignored. It was made for greed, died for greed, and left people hungry and hurting. A company forced it into exsistance then forbid anyone to love it.

while i'm getting pissy about DA, my hot take: Taash is a great character and you not liking them says more about you than Taash. Like its one thing to just not click with them, but the hate I see just borders on people not realizing they just don't like interacting with some types of people.

Epic pays for licensing fees for the games they give away for free as promotions. Which means even if YOU aren't paying for it, you're giving money to JK Rowling to harm transgender people AND elevating her stature by giving her franchise higher numbers. NO TERF WIZARD GAME. NO TERF WIZARD SHOW.

Regardless of how one feels about the Catholic Church or about Pope Francis, now is a time to come together to claim that JD Vance killed him

Remember, followers: If you ever feel bad at your job, at least you’re not BioWare execs deciding their target audience is people who don’t like Dragon Age.

Can someone explain like im 5 at the logic behind some ‘gamerz’ being upset at being called ‘homophobic and racist’ and then- very often in the same breath!- complain that a game is pushing a pro LGBT agenda and erasing the white man? Like pick one or the other bro

I’ve had a headcanon that Rook and Lucanis wind up being the sort of “fun aunt and uncle” to Manfred, “load him up with sugar and sent him home to dad”-style. That includes encouraging his little imagination, and letting him pretend to be a rad little Crow when Emmrich isn’t looking 🤣♥️ #dragonage

Some people need to hear this, apparently - you are not entitled to the private lives of developers just because they worked on a game you like (or dislike). "At least its not death threats" is not something ANYONE should have to write unironically.

I'm really sad for the Dragon Age Veilguard voice actors who never got to speak about their work because EA never signed the SAG AFTRA contract protecting their talent from AI. They got to do one interview and that's it. Depressing.

Friendly reminder that ea still has yet to sign the SAG-AFTRA voice actors contract that involves AI protections for VAs. Really would have been helpful for the game to have their VAs promoting it, especially when one of them streams on Twitch.

Hot take! If you have a problem with all of the ~modern language~ Taash uses but not with all the ~modern language~ Iron Bull uses, you might have a bias to unpack.

Whatever EA say or do in throwing Veilguard and Bioware under the bus, they can’t take away that the DA team made us a game about fighting darkness, keeping hold of hope, and being kind in a time we all truly needed it. #ThankYouDADevs

If I really dig into my empathy, I can kinda see the thinking here. Like, let's say you don't actually know much about games. You're in a big office with a bunch of other execs who also don't know much about games. What are they all saying? "Live games do big numbers!" "Action games are hot!"

pcgamer.com

EA has learned all the wrong lessons from Dragon Age: The Veilguard, and it's going to be disastrous for the future of Mass Effect 5—if it even has a future

No EA RPG is safe from the publisher's obsession with live service.

Let’s be clear: you don’t have those numbers. Nobody outside of EA does, and we only know what they tell us - though the fact they’ve said little, in fact, says a lot. For a return of the series after 10 years, they wanted numbers they could ballyhoo. Whatever they are, they didn’t get them.

Dragon Age has been a part of my life for years and the games and the community that I found because of it saved me when everything in my life was falling apart and I was trying to pick up the pieces and figure out who I was. I'm heartbroken for the everyone hurt by this and fuck EA! #ThankYouDADevs

I'm trying really hard not to say a lot of colorful angry words directed at a company that has laid off some of it's best developers that helped shape their studio. Laying off devs without even owning up to it in your announcement is bullshit. I don't know, I'm just so mad.

But DA isn't dead. There's fic. There's art. There's the connections we made through the games and because of the games. Technically EA/BioWare owns the IP but you can't own an idea, no matter how much they want to. DA isn't dead because it's yours now.

Game studio announcements be like, “We laid off all your favourite devs! But don’t worry, all the people actually responsible for the horrible decision-making that led to this massive failure are staying on :) and they will still be driving their new Porsches :) all is well!!!!!”
