You may be on to something, I’d be very surprised if any of the credited writers produced some of the dogpile trash present in the game or made the decision to remove player agency in the narrative. That said, inquisition sold well but it was already the writing on the wall that the story tellers were mostly gone from bioware.
Nobody is advocating for cross burning. People need to rise against the first steps of a totalitarian government that only serves the oligarchy.
LMAO, everyone and their mother freaking out because the upscaling solutions don’t work as well as on Cyberpunk77… Jesus, Cyberpunk77 is an NVIDIA game, they have poured millions in engineering hours to have it work as a showcase, together with AW2. DLSS et all are a mixed bag as soon as you step off the blockbuster MDF bubble.
Keep the technical team, Veilguard was exceptionally polished. Everyone else can be redistributed to other positions at EA. The writing team should probably re-evaluate if writing is really their shtick.
You can stop using stupid shit like “cishet white” for starters. Statistically, most people who do not care will be cishet white. Those who care, will also mostly be cishet white. With this type of exclusionary discourse bordering on racism, no one will ever listen to you because from the start, you already sound like you have nothing important to say. There’s three types of people in the US: Slaves working 2 and 3 jobs to make ends meet, middle class being pit against the slaves by the third group, the capital. By using exclusionary discourse, assimilated from bougie fake activism, you’re promoting infighting within the classes that should be hunting the capital like animals, the French way!
Edit: your country has sacrificed countless children to never eschew the right to bear arms. Well, stop bitching online to make yourself feel good and use them.
You mean: “some people have different opinions on a game than bertie does” right? I did not profess any opinion of my own, just my bewilderment that the best game bioware ever made sold less than 20% than Inquisition 10y ago in a massively popular franchise, when the potential market is an order of magnitude larger. Would be nice to know what motivates this disconnect between perceived quality from professional bloggers and the actual people buying the games. If you leave reactionary emotional ad hominem outbursts, like your reply, aside, and have a critical analysis of the entire situation, there has to be a reason Veilguard’s sales paled in comparison to much more niche franchises like Dragon’s Dogma… Personally, I think the change in art direction and eschewing of pungent writing in favour of Disney like fairy tale drivel pushed most of the core audience away and wasn’t differentiated enough to capture a new audience.
Wait, but Robert Puchese of Eurogamer told me That Veilguard is the best Bioware game he ever played. Are you telling me this may be a lie? What could possibly explain this disconnect between message and reality?
Remember Marty Straton is a grade A cunt. Boycott doom.
I’m never paying for an ID game while Stratton is around, which is fine, because after the MS acquisition, there’s only one direction to the quality of the franchises…
By design. Cut all the middle men (including thousands of jobs in logistics, distribution and sales) and absorb all of that trickled down wealth upwards in the form of bonuses to the gents who annihilated an entire industry, not by lack of demand, but because the incentive structure is completely opposite to the interests of society at large.
Because modern audiences don’t ask for it.
Did they use MS’s AI to copy Mick Gordon’s music after shafting him?! Marty is a POS. Not buying this game or any other ID game till they pay Mick, apologise, and boot Marty. There’s a wealth of boomer shooters available to choose from, this isn’t that impressive.
Why think when you can emote right? I’m take a wild guess and say there’s an ocean between us…
Marty Straton is exactly the stereotypical management full of egomania.
Git gud
Woosh…
Oh the irony…
The fact that everyone but 4 people like Taylor Swift make her music great. The fact that all but 4 people use Tik Tok make it a great social media app. The fact that all but 4 people voted for Trump makes him a great president.
Or…
Maybe…
Doom has a history and is shifting further away from it in an attempt to capture a larger audience, like the skibidi toilet crowd that needs 24/7 overstimulation and nearly has a stroke when they need to use more than two neurons to perform an action…
2016 was good enough. More of that wouldn’t alienate anyone.
No Mick no buy. Fuck Bethesda right off, those greedy duplicitous cunts. Feel bad for the team tho, I don’t believe the decision to betray Mick came from below.
Where’s the antitrust regulation?
