Actually pretty decent taste, although I prefer 7 over 8 for its horror, despite the house beneviento section scaring tf out of me.

It helps if you have infinite ammo guns like the magnum and SIG Spear (WCX)

We also don't need so much bloat in game companies, they don't need studios with thousands of employees. Masterpieces of games have been made by properly led teams of less than 100, but sadly that method has gone the way of the dodo

And it's not just bad games, it's business practices too, I've completely switched from DOOM to UKTRAKILL because of the ID did to Mick Gordon. Or EA/ubisoft/microsofts greed.

Never said they deserve endless harassment. Sure the low level devs don't deserve harassment, if we're even gonna go after anybody, go after people like the CCO, the execs, etc, the people responsible for messes of games like these.

It also kinda depends tho, if they're well written like Arcade Gannon. If they're like Taash, well that's a different story. Hell, I've seen terribly written straight characters. But in the end. I just want well written characters, their identity really does not matter to me

I'm also all for queer characters in games, as shown in one of my replies in this thread before I got bombarded, by a guy who immediately pulled out the "-ist" name calling.

Agreed man. It doesn't matter what the dev does in their bedroom or what they look like. If they do a good job, that's all that matters.

Hell, once I got my hands on ULTRAKILL, I almost stopped playing DOOM Eternal almost entirely, lol. Just wanted to add this tidbit.

I did actually play these other games. And the more I played, the more I understood why the outrage occurred, and it's why I've also started to play more indie and AA, than AAA.

Perhaps with Avowed yes, but most of my criticism is coming from actual experience. Like with DA:V, star wars Outlaws, skull and Bones, etc.

On her story. These characters are actually well written, unlike Taash. Their identity isn't first and foremost, it isn't preachy, you have to find out yourself, their sexuality/whatever is just a fraction of who they are, as it should be.

Fallout New Vegas has Veronica, a lesbian. And Arcade Gannon a gay character. And their arcs and character is so well written. Black flag has Mary read, who crossdresses to pose as a man so she could actually be a successful pirate. She's also a real historical figure btw. But black flag expanded.

Buddy, I'm not sexist, racist or homophonic, i enjoy games with queer characters, I've already mentioned black flag and Fallout New Vegas, the difference is, they aren't preachy while more modern games are.

And keep in mind, they were on a time crunch too. They and the Obsidian team who made Fallout New Vegas did what a large team with many years of dev time can't do, in a matter of months. Fallout New Vegas was made in 18 months, and is far better than DA:V, especially in story.

DEI is also responsible for a major amount of bloat in companies. No studio needs over 100-200 employees to make a banger game. The OG Halo games were made by a properly led team of less than 100 and they were objective masterpieces of shooters.

Buddy, I played DA:V, it's trash compared to DA:O, like I said, the dialogue was cringy, especially with Taash. He brought the game down by a large margin.

I don't understand why a AAA company would cater to a minority instead of their core audience. If a game is to be for a modern audience, it ought to be indie.

I'm also lowkey ashamed by the amount of people in here that are defending companies like EA and Ubisoft. The most greedy companies ever, companies that said things like "get used to not owning your games" or "single player games aren't worth our time"

So in the end, don't play slop like DATV, Concord or Avowed. Play STALKER 2 or Indie games, because they actually have heart and soul and aren't greedy cashgrabs.

So IMO the veilguard is a bad game, and it's a major fall off of what the franchise originally was like. And there's a reason why games like this are getting major push back, it's because gamers like I have had enough of this BS and want better games, and like it once was. The falloff is insane.

And for other companies, i played Dragon Age Origins, it was amazing, then I played the veilguard, the dialogue and writing was so condescending and cringy especially with Taash, and keep in mind, I'm not homophobic or whatever, hell my favorite game, FNV has queer characters and they're well done.

Or we get games like Skull and Bones, as someone that absolutely loved Black Flag, Skull and Bones was a MAJOR disappointment for me, they took so much out of what made Black Flags ship formula satisfying and fun.
