Seriously, these people need to get sent to a war-torn country and made to join the army there, just to give them a dose of reality and make them see the real problems with the world.

And on top of that, yes, it's ridiculous to expect every fantasy world to conform to the laughable SJW standards. When a game is set in an alternative middle age setting, you don't expect gay people to be openly OK.

In fact, TW3, has some of the most (literally) empowered women of all gaming history. If you read it right, Gerald is more often taken advantage of than the women he sleeps with.

No representation of LGBT characters? There is this quest in White Orchard with the gay hunter. And the way Gerald deals with that, with no comment on his sexuality, just shows how he really doesnt care whether you're gay or not.


"Enlightenment is man's emergence from his self-imposed nonage. Nonage is the inability to use one's own understanding without another's guidance. This nonage is self-imposed if its cause lies not in lack of understanding but in indecision and lack of courage to use one's own mind without another's guidance. Dare to know! (Sapere aude.) "Have the courage to use your own understanding," is therefore the motto of the enlightenment."

They aren't happy with just being ok with it. They would only be satisfied if Geralt had gay sex with him like sexual preferences mean nothing and gender is a social construct or something.

If the characters aren't blank pansexual fucktoys, like in the later Mass Effects, then it isn't edgy. And of course they get triggered by a straight white male protagonist.

Does anyone know how well DAO sold in comparison to TW3? I can't find a damn thing on DAO.

It'd be nice to compare, as well as the development + advertising budgets. I also don't doubt for a second that most people would have been more satisfied with what TW3 had to offer.

In the very least, Bioware will have to significantly lift their game now. Good luck doing that while still trying to pander to every perceived social issue and minority under the sun.

Definitely. Or they could open a book. Or watch a documentary. Or read a fucking headline every now and then. Their safe spaces are probably so trigger-free that the bubbles they're living in leave them blind to how the world actually works. If anything, it sounds like they want to turn a blind eye to these issues.

The rest sounds like bullshit. eg 'The fact that developers thought it would be a good idea to allow players to take advantage of disadvantaged women is disgusting'. I haven't played the DLCs yet, but I've played the entire base game to 100% completion. Where does this happen?


DA:o sold about 1 million copies at retail. Add to that Steam and Origin sales and you get the most successful DA game.

DA2 sold at retail around 800k copies plus whatever was on Origin, mostly in sale.

DA:I seems to be the worst performer, as the sales are still not disclosed.

I only skipped through so i might have missed something important. So American men are essentially becoming women? What a pathetically weak population. Well, we have our issues here as well. But much of the shit we now have to deal with has bled over from that shit stain of a country. I guess i'm too old to understand these pathetic men (if you can even call them that)

The books are very very clear about how Geralt thinks - he's pretty open minded (he's used to being discriminated against after all) and only judges people on how they act, not how they look or their sexual preferences. For them to slam The Witcher which has quite a good moral compass buried in its stories while praising a game that is so woefully out of touch with reality ... it shows why SJWs are a very dangerous thing.

They will never be satisfied with anything. Doesn't matter if Geralt is actually a sensible human being showing a varied and extensive range of emotions, or if he's extremely respectful towards the other sex (so much that he's the one being manipulated all the time), doesn't matter if the game features racial diversity, all kinds of gender diversity (Dandelion's cross-dresser for instance, or White Orchard's hunter as Couleur mentioned), they will always find something to complain about.

Like Derpes' and Pololygon's articles criticizing the game because it doesn't have enough black people and/or a black protagonist, despite the inconsistencies in terms of both narration and historical setting ("fantasy games like The Witcher 3 could very easily feature people of color. For instance, I played the entirety of Dragon Age: Inquisition as a bald black guy"). CD how you dare, you racist kurwas. Who cares about immersion and logic, be more incloosive™ ffs!
(Same thing happened to Vàvra and many others too of course)

You can even have Geralt portrayed as a retrosexual panromantic dark-skinned bull-kin, and it still wouldn't be enough xD. Fuck those people in the butt Razz

i dunno maybe it hadn't crossed her mind that the game might have been made before the gamergate fiasco or that the scandals are all likened to Watergate, probably not it seems.

It could be, but considering Five fun guys=five guys, the event that started the gamergate, i think in this cases it is deliberate. Still funny though that nintendo is the one who puts it in their game. Laughing

Yeah but you can't be a SJW if you aren't easily traumatized - that's like the biggest element of being a SJW, to be shocked and triggered by the merest of things!

Incidentally, not entirely related but I came upon this clip:



It involves Lauran Harries, one of the more famous transvestites in the UK. At 3:55 she shows exactly what pisses me off about these "minority" spokespersons: she basically calls out a professor who tries to defend transvestites and attacks him for using the word "trans-people". It goes to show what a joke the entire PC and SJW movement is - and thank fucking god the presenter called her out on it, albeit politely.

Isn't that game before the whole scandal? She's probably joking about it.


However that's the beauty of being a patreon offendatron, she's probably also following the numbers closely so if she sees a small increase she'll probably run with it anyway Laughing
