OH NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NOAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>688063676The advertisement is nonsensical. Some bios from Bioware refer to Taash as she, others explicitly avoid gendering Taash. It seems like there's internal dev conflict honestly.
>>688063676Bioware will finally be put out of its misery after this game bombs hardThey can't afford another loss, they've been working on this for 10 yearsIt's fucking over for them
>>688063676gamers want this>>688063863god i hope so
What the fuck is "non-binary"?
>>688063956Mentally ill trannies basically
>>688063956mental illness
>>688063781It is definitely sensible for the infinite Tumblr identity thing to have a squabble with the trans thing. They put a lot of effort into devaluing "male" and "female", and then these overly binary fuckers become popular.
>>688063676>nonbinaryi don't even know what kind of mental illness that is
>>688063676>concord JUST bombed>"lets do what they did"I don't get itwhen will it end?
>>688063676Ahh we're seeing history repeating itself.
>>688064103I always think of that reddit post about the guy that cries when taken out of densely populated areas. He claims to be "agender"
>>688063863After the shitshow of Anthem I'm amazed that studio is still alive. I'm pretty sure this game is going to turn out just like how Anthem did.
>>688064080Definitely sounds like a likely explanation
>>688063956It is why we have Body Type 1 and 2. It is for <1% of kids with extreme mental illness that is celebrated instead of treated. Its crazy how leftist give these fucking freaks so much power.
>>688063676Concord Age: The Failguard
>>688064103The most I can think of are the few people that purposely dress to be difficult to determine. Just look like generically skinny dudes/girls. But I'm not sure even they care about the non-binary name. Almost feels like the Latinx thing, no one fucking uses the word except nutcases.
>>688064324>1%I'm pretty sure there's tons of girls who declare themselves non-binary these days. Women are retarded and will follow the herd.
>>688063676Can I be pro slavery in Veilguard? I know Neve is shadow dragon anti slavery (100 bucks that Fenris leads the shadow dragons)
>>688064541Nope, you're going to be good, at best you can be a little spicy with your overall good behavior
>>688063956>>688064103I think it's basically hermaphroditism (either natural or artificial) coupled with a conscious denial of such body state because "muh feelings" and "it's all in the mind chud"But i could be wrong.In any case, they could have just said "you're pairing with a warrior sponge", we don't mind, it's a fantasy setting for fuck sake
>>688063956Trannies which say that they have no gender
>>688063956It's the new super special thing that people cling to because being gay and a tranny isn't just special enough anymore. Back in the old days they used to just call it being androgynous.
>>688063676"Non binary"?You mean "Non-person".
what gender is HK-47?what gender is T3-M4?

one more train wreck on its ways /v/roswe are eating good this year
>>688064108If it's any cold comfort to you, it is ending. These people are proving to be monumentally unprofitable.
>>688063956>>688064103"non-binary" is "i disagree with the gender binary in a vague and indeterminate way"usually that means trannies who aren't fully committed to transitioning yet, or young women who are frustrated with society at large still low-key expecting them to settle down and have kids, with the endless subtle nagging they experience as a result.
>>688065181so they're outside of the he/she binaryso they're non-binary
>>688065291It's like how all vtubers say they're asexual
>>688065361No, their code is actually ENTIRELY binary.
>>688063676He looks like Megamind was raped by Uruk-Hai.

>>688063676and when the game flops they will go>WHY DIDNT RACIST CHUD BIGOT GAMER INCELS BUY THE GAME??!?!
>>688063676humiliation ritual the game
>>688065291Yeah god forbid ANYONE has ANY expectations of women whatsoever. It's so hard on them, poor poor women.brb getting conscripted to die in a war because I'm male.
>>688065430It was a coordinated boycott by racist incel chuds that killed it.
>>688065430Dragon Age 2 was the start of EA using faggots as a shield from criticism. I dont know why kids now think DA2 was good.
>>688065535>go to sleep>wake up>do some work>cook myself my OMAD>I am somehow an economic terrorist
It'll flop.
>>688063676>THEY/THEM, SAY IT YOU FUCKING FASCISTS SAY IT, THEY/THEM!!!
>>688065629How could you...I am LITERALLY shaking rn...All this power and you choose to use it for evil...
>>688064324How is inclusivity giving them "so much power"?
>>688065535Kinda funny how the ray-cyst in-sell chud boycotts actually work unlike what happened with Harry Potter.
>>688063676I'm sure the whole modern audience will love it/thing!
>>688065476you know the lefties take issue with that as well rightyou roll your eyes when they complain about "toxic masculinity", but conditioning young men into a better state of mind to be soldiers is part of the toxic masculinity package.
>>688065361What he/she binary? Pronouns aren't even based on sex anymore.
>>688063676>ctrl+f>arnie>arnold>schwreally??
>>688063676So how did they program it if it's not binary?
>>688066380zoomers dont know arnie.fucking faggots i swear
>>688063676To ugly to be either gender kek!
Imagine for a second being the PC from first game and deciding to go with the sacrifice ending where you die for the sake world. And now this is the world.
>>688066380what the fuck are you talking aboutdo you think that nigger troon looks like arnold
>>688063676Who's the target audience for Concordlikes like this one?
>>688063676this has been the best year in gaming in a long time. i have never gotten to laugh so hard at watching these corposlop games flop. reminder that game development usually has a 2-4 or 4-8 year dev cycle so we haven't even reached the peak wokeness era of 2021-22 developed games. strap in cause this ride won't be ending for some time!
i can deal with that cartoon like graphics they went for but why is every character so over designed and fucking ugly
>>688063956A mental illness that is usually just a phase. At the most awkward and impressionable stages of life your perception of reality can be warped by external stimuli such that you feel insecure about even being a man or woman compared to others. You see others clearly as they are but yourself in all the ways you are inadequate. The cop out is to call yourself non-binary in an attempt to escape the perceived rigid expectations of gender/sex. The mature response is to realize that those expectations were unrealistic and self-imposed. There are plenty of good men and women who don't embody what you previously percieved to be the definition of a man or woman but it takes time or a positive external influence to realize that.
>>688063956>>688064103>>688064384Its called "androgynous"God I'm so sick of this fucking clown world making up retarded names when we already had perfectly reasonable terms for shit decades ago. By the way >80% of "non binary" people are just stupid white teens girls trying to get special brownie points, similar to how you have a bunch of them identifying as being bi and then exclusively dating and fucking dudes.
>>688063676Bit odd of them to assume that this character isn't just a woman. I mean look at her, absolutely a woman. Clearly. Because women look like that. Not men. That's definitely NOT a man. It's a woman.Lel do they not realise that they're basically saying YOU SHALL NOT PASS to trannoids with this? By seeing this ugly thing and immediately picking up on the fact that this character, out of all of them, is the gender gay or whatever, they're almost getting it. I'd love to see someone ask one of these fags what makes them think this is the tranny.
>>688063956females who hate the fact they have a roll to play in life and think males get to do whatever they want. they forget the male roll is usually cannon fodder for war so just watch them snap out of it REALLY soon.
>>688065792I'm holding ALL modern game companies hostage...If they don't give in to my demands... I will continue to do nothing
>>688067498It's role btw
>>688063676Good.
>>688067598perhaps. but my statement remains the same.
>>688064080>its ok to make up dumb conspiracies in my head as long as they align with 4chan groupthinkthis is how you manually become insane
>>688063676Of course it would be a fucking Qunari. I FUCKING HATE QUNTS
Can't wait to not even pirate this shit.
>>688067835this. they shouldn't even bother with DRM. would just be an extra expense at this point.
i feel like 4chan people see 'lgbt' types as the modern-day anime-shirt weebs, a site that attracts people who were bullied as a kid naturally is going to foster hatred towards anyone who is willingly open about their 'weirdness' because anons themselves were bullied for it in school. its basically just stockholm syndrome.
>>688063676It's far from the first, but I do not expect them to play games let alone old icky ones.
>>688067990nothing says "I'm a victim" like "Blackrock uses its control of untold trillions of dollars to force you to like me"
>>688067990I think you might be projecting with this theory. Most people don't hate them, they are just fatigued by the sheer amount of LGBT representation in modern media.
>>688067990>having the complete support of the MSM and billion dollar corporations makes me the outsider, chud!
>>688067990how mentally ill do you have to be to unironically think the average person wants to troon out or have gay sex? are you stupid? normal people literally have the same brain reaction when seeing shit, rotting flesh, and men kissing each other
>>688067990Why are you here?
>>688067990You want my honest take? I dont give a fuck who you fuck, what you do, etc as long as it doesnt obnoxiously and relentlessly infringe on my entertainment in the most preachy way possible. I played games with gays in it before. I didnt care. I played games with minorities before. I didnt care. Why? Because they were actual characters and not retarded dev mouthpieces.My problem is when you try to go to find out if a game is good, and every interview is about how inclusive they are, how many LGBT people are in the game, how many LGBT people are devs, how many dicks they sucked, etc instead of TALKING ABOUT THE FUCKING GAME. My problem is that they are focusing on everything EXCEPT making good games or media. My problem is that whenever they make these changes and tell ME that video games arent for ME even though I played vidya likely before they were even born, then they have the audacity to cry when their shit game with zero substance other than "we're gay pls buy" flops, blaming it on ME. No, fuck you, you arent entitled to anything and its obnoxious that a fraction of a fraction of the population gets like 80% of the talking space for a fucking videogame. And you know what? Every gay/bi/minority/whatever I know in real life is fucking sick of it too. We're all fatigued of fake, disingenuous cocksuckers trying to hide behind this shit like a shield. One of my best friends is gay and him and his husband both instantly nope the fuck out the second a dev drones on for longer than 1 minute about how 'inclusive' they are. That is where we're at. People want GAMES. Make a fucking game first. Then if you want a certain character, make an interesting character first, then assign if they like to suck dicks or not, and dont make that their entire fucking personality. Outside of a porn game, a character's dick preference should be a trivia note AT BEST, not the main fucking draw.
>>688067990You're projecting. If only the people that bullied you in school did a better job you would be more normal
I hope this game fails so badly.
>>688063956The Concord gender
>>688063956Some loser that thinks being a sex weirdo is personality
>>688063676One of my life goals is to get a phd so people must refer to me as “dr” or “professor”Does that make me non-binary?
>>688063676>buying a Bioware game post-ME3People don’t actually do that right? You’re joking
>>688066806kek
>>688063676I cant wait to not play it.
>>688063956Just another anglophone imperialistic mind game, focused around their degeneracy. There to expand their control over your speech and police your tone. I shall not participate in their humiliation ritual. Kill all English-only speakers.
>>688067990You did this to yourself. Every Gen alpha colors and lgbt coded character on a game cover/trailer is going to create a Pavlov dog response. Your sales will sank unless you're backed by Tencent and can make an objectively good game like BG3
>>688063676Amazing that someone got away with naming this character 'Trash' and the rest of the bottom of the barrel creative team were too dumb to pick up on it. Actually, it's not that amazing since it's only just a judgement of the mental capacity of the creative team of modern Bioware.

>>688067990>a bunch of headcannonI lost my virginity at 15, i was a varsity wrestler, i took more than 1 girls virginity in high school, i even watched all the avengers movies in theatres when they came out, i am, by all means, a normie. So with that said, i got along with the anime shirt weebs more than the alphabet werido freaks, and im not an intolerant or bigoted person, its just that every tranny i have ever met in real life, and i have met them, is an unlikable schizo sociopath and they deserve all the hate they get. The fags and trannys got picked on, the punk contrarians and incels and weeb kids mostly were quiet and stuck to themselves. Have a nice day.
>>688064984these days, robot are all nonbinary with the logic being "robots usually don't have genitals, therefore they are nonbinary unless they're sexbots" despite the fact that woke gender ideaology runs on "mind and body don't have to match" in every other case.as a robotfucker this whole thing annoys me to no end. even had to go to bat for one of my robot OCs because a tranny on itch.io was trying to claim him as nonbinary.
>>688067640i just see matt smith. i don't know why.
>>688063956Liberal schizophrenic ramblings. They belong in an asylum
Ok but, how does the constant, endless, increasingly obnoxious decision to inject faggots, trannies and weirdos make the gameplay more fun?
>>688071332Gameplay?
>>688065856They are rewriting how society works by compelled speech and protected classes of people.
>>688071332Fun?
Isn't Liara's entire species essentially nonbinary?
>>688071687Sort of. In practice, it's much like theiy're all female
>>688071687Not before Andromeda
>>688063956Usually a cope for girls that either cba taking care of themselves or find themselves too ugly to pass as a woman so they roleplay as a man but still be able to swing to both sides to whatever becomes more convenient.

Lmao imagine giving a fuck about w*stern pozzware KEK
Why did they name it "Veilguard" when is so close to Failguard? Do they WANT this to Concord?
I thought there already was one in Inquisition?
>>688063676inb4 it's failure is blamed on market saturation and BG3 setting the bar so high that the game was doomed to fail and should be praised as a martyr instead of a flop.
>>688072771the same people push all the braindead anti-capitalist propaganda like in that fallout tv showit's just normal leftist hypocrisy, they blame the system and try to ruin it "from within"
>>688064227>anthem flops>claim they're going to give it the No Man's Sky treatment and fix this game>cancel the engoodening less than one year laterI don't get how this wasn't a bigger shit fit at the time. I've always thought it was scummy of them to try and entice people to buy the game at a low with the expectation they were going to continue working on it only for them to change their mind.
>>688073362It'll be the usual finger pointing:>Dragon Age the Veilguard was not meant for you and THATS A GOOD THING: article by some fagtron on Kotaku Afterwards the reality of the games failure will set in and they'll blame bigots, racist's, mysonigistcs, say that these people not paying a global corporation is the equivalent of not supporting Kamala Harris, etc, etc
>>688063676they really named him Trash
>>688065598>Dragon Age 2 was the start of EA using faggots as a shield from criticism. Wasn't that the SimCity / Origin always online debacle, and getting voted the worst company in America? I still roughly remember the "apology" press release>We can do better. Wait actually we're fantastic and bow to no one and people hate us because we're popular. Our customers actually love SimCity, Origin and microtransactions, and also we've seen movement on far right Nazi websites who probably orchestrated this entire thing and voted us because we have gays in Sims and a black guy in Madden cover.

>>688073934It's okay when Japan does it. Unironically.
>>688064813All this shit is about how you "feel", so they are not real, only in their minds.
>>688074368That guy and the yoyo troon from guilty gear are at least cute, they get a pass from me because they dont remind me of those ugly troons ive seen in real life when i go into the city. The reason western designed troon characters are terrible is because they actually are realistic representation of real troons.
>>688074368>That guyIt´s a girl. This is no an Astolfo/Felix/Fujiyoshi case. She never stated anything about her.
Doesn't non-binary just mean woman who doesn't want to be sexualized (which is just a personality trait and not a gender)?
>>688075136>sexualizedGo back.
>>688075045Meant for >>688074828And also, what >>688074368 says its true, because they don´t do it to virtue-signaling.
>>688075136It literally means, that said person doesn´t conform (whatever that means for them) to the typical reproductory genders, aka male/female.You guessed it, a mental illness
Why would a fantasy world contain all the same attention seeking faggotry of modern day California?
>>688075274Because these troons are so creatively bankrupt that they are completely unable to just imagine a fantasy world. They have to project their every day commiefornia onto everything they create. They are literal NPCs incapable of dreaming up a different world.
>You won´t be able to control your companions>But instead, you will know (and they will make sure of it) every degeneracy and mental retardation they have.
>>688075552To be fair, all that gender shit is pure fantasy....
>>688063676
>>688063956Mental illness
>>688063956>I'm purposefully opting out of gender roles entirely instead of just being a non-traditional member of my gender.Also>I belong to (or am imitating) a culture that is so sexist that you literally cease to be male or female in society's eyes if you can't meet their standards for being a "real" man or woman. (See: most indigenous third genders)But most likely>I want attention and LGBQ seem to get a bunch, but just saying I'm bi or asexual-but-not-aromantic nobody would notice. Insistently correcting people with "they" gets more eyes without having to do any icky gay stuff.
>>688075837But fagg-anon, not conforming to gender roles is not the same as that non binary shit. Coincidentially, theese "non-binary" individials, are the most sexist o all, because, to show off it´s not conformativity, they dress, act and appear like the opposite sex they are.
>>688063676it's been like 20 years since bioware have made a good game, what do you people expect
>>688065414"The age of Man is over"
>>688063956Women aged 14-30 who want to attach gay community label to themselves because it is trendy with their online social circle but don't actually want to fuck around with other girls or commit to anything with long term impact on their lives.

>>688064108Its funny to think of woke devs elsewhere shitting their pants watching concord go down in flames, knowing they’re designing games with the same sensibilities. I bet the tension is thick in bioware dev cubicles.
>>688076127>what do you people expectto laugh at a new bioware game again.
>>688076392Depressing. These girls unironically think they are owning the evil patriarchy by ruining their lives, health, and looks, and ironically becoming more obssesed with politics and men instead of realizing they could just be normal and not sexualize themselves.
>>688076502LMAO
Wtf isnt it normal to refer to someone as they if its in the third person? Like "They are a competent warrior" wtf is this reach saying that calling anyone they means they're non-binary?
>>688076392I would commit warcrimes if i was the father
>>688063676It's going to bomb as hard as Concord lmao
>>688063956Mindbroken women who hit the wall hard way too early who decide they have no gender
>>688076392man wtf dude
>>688063956Gender is a spectrum and non-binary is when you're neither of the two.
>>688064103It's when someone doesn't feel like a man or a woman.Arguably it's things like femboys, softboys and tomboys, tho the people in that role would probably argue they take those concepts even further so they aren't just "a little unladylike" but firmly in a grey area between the genders.Example: Metrosexual softboi who enjoys wearing an apron, cooking & baking, wears eyeliner, paints his nails, etc. - but they also don't want to be called a woman or use female pronouns or shave their beard or chop off their dick, etc. They don't want to be a woman, but they also don't feel like a real man. They don't feel like they really belong to either camp.

>>688080103Have you seen a Smash Bros tournament?
>>688080382yes, but how is this important to the gameplay? what does one's sexuality, which is a very small part of a human, matter to the gameplay of the rpg?
>>688080560Sex minigame. Obviously.
>>688067990Some of this weirdness is sexual immorality, just fundamentally. Are you really surprised it makes some people uncomfortable?
>>688080531Other than that you get something like stand in a line and choose "attack" from a menu. The gameplay is simply window dressing for the story. It is secondary. Not why you play them.

>>688081285Based. Got to kill that Bull faggot too
>>688082002Weekes one of the DA writers look like that and he’s non binarreeee
>>688082159>I argued for the exact opposite of that...>Other than that you get something like stand in a line and choose "attack" from a menu. The gameplay is simply window dressing for the story.gameplay in an RPG is more than selecting an attack. it's about building a character, and making them excel at what you want them to do. in a good RPG whether it be a video game or PnP, that should still be the main focus.
>>688082682It is exactly that in some rpgs and you can probably even name them yourself. My point there was to highlight that stellar gameplay is not the central point in an rpg. It is only an afterthought to actually being a character in a story, so to say "why do you care about the story, it's a game" is stupid.
>>688078153>>688065408are star wars computers binary?even today we have quantum computers that aren't.
>>688063676Okay. When are they going to finally give us our first well written Dragon Age character?
>>688082972>It is only an afterthought to actually being a character in a storybut this is wrong if there's no real game design put forth to make your character meaningful outside of interacting with potential romances. \>so to say "why do you care about the story, it's a game" is stupid.the genre was literally made off of expansion from dungeon crawls, which focused on player autonomy and gameplay mechanics.
>>688071494absolutely based madlad
>>688063863they will still cling to the last mass effect game they are working on but if veilguard flop and shareholders will make them show they work on mass effect and it turns out to be woke then they will cancell it, fire half the studio and sell it
>>688083670The gameplay is only there to advance your character through the story, be that very basic "make number go up so big number beat boss big number then watch cutscene", or slightly more advanced with having skills you can use to overcome plot points. You wouldn't bother with any of it if what you are progressing through is finding out about which hole the next npc likes to stick his dick in, why his dog avoids him and who he is being cucked by.
>>688063956its the gender of the golem that works in the semitic colony for the benefit of the masters
>>688072771it's funny how the capitalists just happen to agree with leftists about everything
>>688063863god i love how people still believe game developers actually take 10 years to put a fucking game together. lolliterally 3 weeks of copy pasting shit into some shitty world. 2 of those weeks will be them making sure absolutely nothing about the game store or casino is bugged
>>688063956Talmudic poison.
>>688085107>3 weeks of copy pasting shit into some shitty worldthis would resoult in game optimalisation level of earth defence 6yes game dev is now overboated and too many diversity hires but it still takes long to make
>>688063956It's when you're mentally ill and instead of being treated as such the word coddles you. You know how when a kid says they wanna be an astronaut you just buy them space toys until they get bored of it? Trannies are like that except instead of humouring the kid until they snap out of it you send them to NASA to train.Don't engage with their terms.
>>688063676How do localization companies even treat these? How the fuck do these stupid pronouns work for all the 50 different yurop languages?
>>688063676kek, this was obvious from the moment when they revealed the voice actors.
>>688063676>Non-binaryEww. What's that? Some new term for faggot?
>>688064103It's a trauma response from being diddled too hard, wanting to distance yourself from being, most often, a girl. Girl = desirable = molested, if not girl, not desirable, not molested.
>>688085538I always wondered about that. French is my first language and everything (and I mean everything) is either gendered male or female.The chair you're sitting on? Female.Your computer? Male.The walls in your in room? Male.The floor? Male.The ceiling? Male.The sun? Male.The future? Male.
>>688072771(((Capitalists)))
>>688077202This is so ridiculous.Of course you don't feel like a man and don't feel like a woman. That's because there's no such thing.Nobody is a man or woman because "they feel like one".Furthermore, imagine trying to describe everything a person can feel as "masculine" or "feminine".
>>688063956Straight white girls who want in in the oppression olympics
>>688085538Progressive idiots in each country always try to make up new words for everything, but in gendered langauges it inevitably looks even more ridiculous, because everything is gendered, even inanimate objects, and there's no neutral gender.
>>688076429No, anon. The current dogmatic belief towards the Concord failure is "the chuds did it" through the power of meanness. You can't convince these idiots that everything about them disgusts normal people.
>>688086208I do nothing and I slaughter western woke games. I am too powerful. Devs out in the streets, starving and sucking cock for sustenance and I did that.
Me, a chud, while annhillating western studios. (Im doing nothing)
>>688063676I'm PRETTY SURE that games have given you robot companions. And as they don't have genders (because they are machines, not human), they are technically nonbinary. Correct?
Non Binary? pog my dude
>>688076392There wasn't even a transition was there? All of the sudden, boom, gain 40lbs of fat?
Grifter thread
god even as an unironic commie I'm sick of this shittotal liberal gaming purge when
>>688084319>>688083670You're each emphasizing two halves of the whole here. The story matters only insofar as it allows the player to fulfill the role of the character they made. You cannot properly play your role without a narrative that reflects mechanical and narrative decisions, but that does not mean that the mechanical side (number go up) is not the primary factor that makes the game, a game. Otherwise you get glorified VNs, as noted before.To the original question, a character's gender identity or whatever the fuck doesn't matter to the gameplay. It might matter to the story, but unless they add in some mechanical representation or make it a big choice and consequence narrative element (either of which sounds like shit by the way), it's a whole nothingburger that doesn't deserve so much prioritizing.
>>688063956A fashion article.
>>688063676I've decided a long, long time ago I wouldn't be paying for this. When companies make decisions like this I'm vindicated.
>>688063956>im not unique enough so i made shit up-gender
>>688087471my grandparents grew up in a communist nation, and are quite socially conservative and hate all this shit.
>>688063676These people are so delusional if they think this is what gamers want. It's also fucking cringe to talk about 'fans' and 'us' like there is some huge fanbase when i reality it's just a couple of journalists on a payroll and a couple of thousand people. People didn't play the dragon age games for this dumb shit.
>>688085538It all comes downstream from English and from there the woke academics of their respective languages try to make shit up. For example, Latinos are now 'latinx' or 'latines' and the vowels at the end of each word that would indicate gender (typically 'o' for male and 'a' for female) is instead replaced with 'e' or even "@".
>>688063676Can't wait to hear how it my fault for not playing it even though I'm not the "target audience".
>>688063676Non Binary doesn't actually mean anything. WTF do they keep pushing this as if it's some kind of real thing? That isn't even trans.
>>688063676adding it to the skip list. DA wasnt never that good anyway. the only reason i have 150 hours on DA:I is because Reaver is a class you can play. literally the only reason
>>688086767Hell yeah.
>>688063863On one of the steam stats sites it tracks preorders and it has a forecast so far based on popularity / preorders! That Veilguard is set to sell £2.2 million worth on Steam. Fucking lol.Either way it's going to bomb hard with a couple hundred thousand sales at best on Steam.

>>688069796Only if you were not a doctor.
>>688063956make believe idiocy. because gender roles are one part socialization in two parts biology, we decided that they're totally arbitrary. never mind that gender roles are IMPOSED upon you by other parties, and not something you get to pick and choose. what jobs are stereotypically agender? what kinds of jobs and pastimes do demigender individuals typically engage in, and how do they differ from those followed by pangender individuals? why did society choose to saddle these individuals with these social roles? no one can answer these questions, because it's all horseshit
>>688084319>>688087679I think a strong story and characters are pretty much the standard now in any TT or vidya RPG, but that it shouldn't be what the game is build around. the focus on story and worldbuilding came well after the genre's refinement. gameplay and class mechanics should always be the primary motivator that pushes the player agency forward to influence the story/world.
DragonCord: The Non-Binary GuardSigh. I'm just tired bros. Dragon Age Origins had bisexual characters like Lelliana but they didn't shove that shit down your throat for the marketing. Now when I see them marketing the game with political stances I instantly don't want to buy itIm tired
>>688067640The characters look ai-generated
>>688067990forced worship breeds contempt. profound, lifelong contempt
>>688088803What is their budget?
>>688089341>but that it shouldn't be what the game is build around. >gameplay and class mechanics should always be the primary motivator that pushes the player agency forward to influence the story/worldI'm with you on this, my only contention was that the story also has to be conducive to the mechanical side of things. i.e., the ideal is that the game is well written enough to account for your race, class, background, and stats you invested into.
>>688063676Bioware is so retarded that they can't even make a dummy mommy character
>>688063676Why would I want a qunari as a companion, non-binary or otherwise? They're the unquestioning slaves of a brutal religion that demands the death of independent thought among all intelligent creatures.
>>688092079Did you not recruit Sten in Origins? Besides Taash is probably a Vashoth anyway.
>>688091790I'm old. I hate these zoomer terms.
Remember the last time this happened? We all had a good laugh about that one.
>>688093462She very dummy, anon. Seriously, she has 8 INT.
they ahvent learned anything from bg3 this shit is going to flop so fucking hard
>>688063676I, for one, have no qualms with non-binary as long as its not humanoid and displays no humanoid-looking traits. A slime blob, for example, would fit this.In fact, some dev should do that some day: Make a slime companion that you can make become feminine or masculine depending on how you treat them or otherwise ask them to be.
>>688093671For the last time, anon, I'm not adding a femboy slime gf(bf) to the game.

>>688063676I hate how bioware sanded down all the interesting parts of the dragon age setting. The whole point of the Qun was that it's a religion with ultra strict roles, I feel as though a good writer could actually explore a trans/non-binary person would react when put in such a system but nobody gives a fuck about consistency and they retconned it that the qun is super cool with everybody.
>>688076502
>>688076983Not as bad as Concord. But not good by any means.
>>688076983>>688102142It would take genuine effort on BioWare's part for it to bomb as badly as Concord. I don't think people quite grasp how calamitously awful that game did.
>>688063676You would have to pay me to play that.
>>688063956For people who want to be part of the special olympics without actually committing to shit like surgeries and hormones so when shit hits the fan for fags, they can easily filp the switch without being worse for wear. Basically they're snakes just as well as faggots because they only encourage the mental illness full well knowing the ramifications for the less mentally stable people without any skin lost off their backs.

>>688105040>once again leftists proving they're more racist than I amSomehow I doubt many people are more racist than you
>>688063956Zoomer attempts at being special and unique.
>>688105468Lucanus isn't white
>>688105296Yeah. If it really was about money, this shit would've ended a few years ago. Only reason they release this shit, from my point of view, is because they want to delude the media pool with propaganda and stupid shit for awhile. It's why they don't want the general masses to learn how to pirate shit because it is so easy. If they control what you can choose to watch, play, etc, they know eventually they can lower standards and brainwash people when people believe there isn't anything better to play or watch.
>>688103310This game has been in development for over a decade, the budget most probably has skyrocketed just accounting for the six figures salaries from all developers, if they don't sell at least 5 or 6 million copies, they will be closed for sure, this company has not released a single hit since dragon age 2 and mass effect 3.
>>688105593I know he's from Antiva which is analogous to Italy. But I've heard the contrary as well. Plus a vocal crowd claim Gale isn't white either. Saying that he's analogous to someone of Greek descent. Saying Gale's last name Dekarios is reminiscent of it.
>>688106003Italians aren’t white
>>688064103It's basically a "I want to be trans and lgbt without fucking people of my own gender and taking hormones and chopping my healthy body parts"It's a way to be hip and on the curve without doing absolutely anything, dare to say these people are far more mentally ill than the average tranny.

>>688063956Doesn't identity as a man or woman
>>688106003Fags want me to believe this is a Greek god.
>>688105468Jesus Crist why does nu-DragonAge look so bad?
>>688105898Concord got pulled and refunded across all platforms two weeks after launch. Sony not only got no money, but is now down production, distribution, and marketing costs, including however much they spent getting a spot on an Amazon Prime anthology and the weekly animated videos, as well as the cost of the studio itself, which they bought in a fit of unwarranted optimism. Conversely, while BioWare's latest games have consistently failed to meet sales goals (to the point of sequels and post-launch support being cancelled), they haven't actually lost money - they've just pulled disappointing ROIs. So while it's very possible Veilguard won't meet EA's expectations, and even possible that it'll straight-up lose money, it would have to be a cock-up of truly spectacular proportions to fail as hard as Concord.
>>688106069>t.
>>688067576>we tried nothin and it worked
>>688063676>the monster race in DragonAge:The VeilguardI think that DragonAge does disgusting monsters way better than Baldur's Gate 3. I am repulsed and disgusted by the things i see in DragonAge and find the characters in BG3 cute and loveble so which game is really better in the end? No i am serious, the more i look at DragonAge:The Veilguard the more i want to vomit. They really do disgusting and repulsive well.
>>688075661>To be fair, all that gender shit is pure fantasy....
>>688063956It means something doesn't have a 0 and 1 only. For example, you input 0101010112. So there's an error in the code, which you must eliminate. That's called debugging. After fixing it, everything works fine again.
>>688106003>Antiva which is analogous to ItalySpain actually
>>688107264Same. Durge looks fucking cool, but Taash gets more upsetting to look at the more you look at her.
>>688107264I think the issue is that wasn’t what they were going for.
>>688091790your pic and all of bg3 characters are no different from non binary qunari, get some taste
>>688107639>no different from non binary qunari,Karlach being attractive is a major difference.
>>688107483I never seem to get a consensus on that.
>>688107264BG3 simply can't do repulsive. All their characters look too good, too pretty, too charming, too detailed and with too much thought put into them. DragonAge devs are the masters of the repulsive and disgusting.
>>688107830>attractiveNo.Stop watching porn. Stop waiting for a woman to be the strong man you are meant to be.
>>688107820>>pansexual = attracted to persons regardless of their genderi thought you said gender wasn't a sexuality
>>688108240Spider man isn’t hot
>>688108367Never said I was into her. Nor am I into that archetype. But from aesthetics alone she has far more going for her than Taash does.
>>688063676this game wokeness makes bg3 looks tame in comparison
>>688108490Sure he is, hence how he can pull a succubus.
>>688108781Of course it does. While Larian is fairly transparent in its politics, it remains devoted to the notion that the player should be allowed to do what they want. Hence why you can go out of your way to fuck over or outright murder anyone and everyone who offends your sensibilities, and still find ways to advance the game.
>>688064206so sorry I wasnt here sooner
>>688109002this is what wokies wont get, they genuinely think it won because of how "diverse" the game is
>>688063676Have these people not seen hyenas and concord? Do they really wanna go that route?
>>688109089See here >>688088170 this is why BG3 won. This is also why DragonAge will fail.
>>688075274Because a lot of people in power want to social engineer the plebs to become gay communists.
>>688072771>it's not leftist because it's authoritarianism (with a left wing agenda)>it's not leftist because it's corporatism/capitalism (with a left wing agenda)>it's not leftist because it's a police state (with a left wing agenda)Etc. It's never leftism because leftism doesn't actually work so it's never tried. Leftism is inherently hypocritical and has to use tactics of exclusion, hierarchy, institution, etc. to get what they want despite decrying those things. While they do this they will look you in the eye and tell you 'and that's a good thing', then turn around and claim they never had anything to do with it if questioned.
>>688067674It's not a conspiracy, it's just an obvious change in the social climate. You can feel however you want about it but I doubt the people who are all about social justice stuff would disagree with me either.
>>688107820Let's make it even simpler!>Binary gender = Man or Woman.>Non-binary = Mental illness.>Gender Fluid = Mental illness.>Intersex = Mental illness.
>>688109089I mean, let's not sugarcoat it, the game is very diverse. But the game doesn't demand that people approve of it.
>>688110170>Intersex = Mental illness.How can it be that when they are literally born with different sets of genitalia? A mutation would be a better descriptor.
I just don't think anyone should be surprised by the game being... let's just say weird. It's a game made for fanfiction writting middle aged women and lesbian/gay/bisexual/queer whatever fringe groups that still use reddit and tumblr. I don't see why anyone would be mad at them for sticking to their roots. It's 2024, last dragon age game in 2014 was exactly the same, pandering to the same group I just mentioned. BioWare is not a normie or a mainstream company anymore, they are not on the same level as Bethesda/CDPR/Fromsoft etc that make RPGs that normies play.
>>688067640>>688063676ah, my daughter-son
>>688063676I've never met a non-binary person in my life, they can't embe common enough to warrant putting them in every game.
>>688111306I've never met anyone with vitiligo either, but for some reason devs consider it important for representation.
>>688063956It's a binary system where you're either binary or non-binary but in both scenarios still retarded for using the terms.
>>688105296it's all about the Bazz

>>688112941That's Morrigan you're thinking of.
>>688063676>might give usAre they trying to stir the pot? "See, bigots are already complaining, that's why we need more faggotry in games."
>>688113121Think it's just more ridiculous headcanon that's been framed to make the game even more comically progressive than it is. I'd wait for the actual release for them to start claiming pushback from "economic terrorism".
>>688067990No, you are not >modern-day anime-shirt weebsYou want to be that so bad, but you aren't. That you try to make everything about yourself and try to connect everything back to you in some vain desire for (forced) validation for the shit you made your entire personality is one of the very fucking reasons no one can stand you anymore, even among other weirdos.
>>688113024Apparently Taash might be one too. Since she is said to breathe fire.
>>688063676>Why yes we the people of this fantasy realm where people constantly have to worry about war, demons, dark magic, and dark-spawn care a lot about modern American values of pronouns and diversity
>>688113965I mean, I could understand people not giving a fuck about certain conservative values if the setting is constantly under high-mortality threat, but yeah, I have a hard time imagining most people give a shit about progressiveness either.
>>688064007that's redundant

>>688116062Despite Larian's strong leftist opinions, they've never fully shed their quintessential coomer nature, and are unlikely to so long as that freak Swen holds the reins. Unfortunately for BioWare, they lack a stabilizing horny presence to guide the studio by the dick.

>>688117729Well, the Mass Effect trilogy rerelease bought them some time and money. But yeah, EA has been unusually patient with them - maybe they're reluctant to liquidate their sole remaining RPG dev without a few extra chances.
>>688117729andromeda's probably better than BG3
>>688063956it means "someone who doesnt like digital devices"luddites, in other words
>>688118191Must you be a contrarian?
>>688118191It really isn't.
>>688063676Do CEO's request to see demand curves/expansive market data on resource heavy projects anymore?
>>688063956Hexadecimal
>>688118391You'd think they'd do so as a matter of course, but after recent events, I'm starting to question whether they talk to anyone anymore.
>>688063956Any numeral system that is not base-2 numeral system. Decimal and hexadecimal numbers are non-binary.
>>688118191Look I know BG3 isn't what it is cracked up to be, but let's not say anything retarded here.
>>688063676>>688063956I legitimately will never understand why people can't just accept their sex/gender and dress and act however the fuck thy want. Why invent this new bullshit terminology? Are you a guy? You want to act feminine? Just fucking do it. Are you a woman? No, who the fuck cares?
>>688067990Faggots and troons are the ones getting bullied in school and beyond. Their suicide rates aren't high for no reason
>>688082002the funniest thing about these types, is just how evil everything they espouse is, these are PEAK post-modern leftists, the END product, and they cannot help but tell you about how they want to rape and dismember children.that bottom right one is easily the worst, viewing them in motion convinces the subconscious that you are viewing something pure evil, what it must feel like to be in the presence of an actual demon.
>>688094310yea I could THROW A BARREL AT IT, as a functional playstyle in BG3.I can't do this in this faggoty game.
>>688118909So they can get special treatment and be treated as a minority class
>>688094310dragon age has turned into an extremely watered down arpg. It's going to be piss easy, have a retarded inconsistent lore and story, and rampant identity politics. It has nowhere to go but failure. It's like inevitable. It doesn't appeal to anyone.
>>688119723no one is interested in this, and everyone has gotten quite allergic to Woke products.the Leftist developers cannot help themselves though, its simply in their nature to inject it in copious amounts in everything they do, its anathema to them to back down, to even suggest it is hearesy, the one to do so would be struggle sessioned back in line.people often say "to go woke is to go broke" and really, it misses the mark, the Woke MUST push this shit, they have no free will, the collective ideological force that make up their group, insure the march forward goes on, no matter the cost.
>>688119723BG3 has all those things and it still made money
>>688120848bg3 was an extremely complex RPG, was extremely difficult and challenging, had consistent story and lore, and had minimal identity politics, virtually none in the main campaign. So you're not accurate at all.
>>688077174>you can be this obviously sarcastic and modern 4chan posters still won't get itWhat the fuck happened to this site?
>>688063676>making this after baldur's gate 3how hard is bioware shitting their pants right now? they gotta know they're not fooling anybody with this slop.
>>688064534>follow the herd>1%
>>688121675Considerably, I'm betting. Though they know full well they can't keep putting it off and drawing paychecks from EA for nothing, so they have to release SOMETHING and pray it keeps the lights on.
>>688076392>be a 9 or 10>have a mental illness that makes you hate thatYou hate to see it.

>>688076392this is just hispanic women before/after they get hitched
>>688063676I hate non-custom companions in crpgs with a white hot burning passion. I hate playing what is essentially a 5th wheel in the dev's party. I want to make my own group of bros going on an adventure with inter party dramas that I come up with myself.
>>688123379>I want to make my own group of bros going on an adventure with inter party dramas that I come up with myself.Beyond Icewind Dale and Gold Box games. What other major franchise nowadays let you do that? Isn't a major focus on established character through which the player can bounce off of?
>>688123713you can make custom hirelings in both of the owlcat PF games
>>688123713Wizardry and its various knockoffs are all about that sort of thing.
How did we go from this?
>>688123870>WizardryThey're still making Wizardry games?
>>688063676Go woke go broke soon
>>688071494Notice how this never happens to mare pussy aficionados.
>>688124005Yeah? Some Japanese company acquired the rights after Sir-Tech folded, and there's been new games sporadically ever since, as well as knockoffs like Elminage.
>>688124210Interesting.
gamers want big knees and schlurpzillaskeep your genderqueer proto futa nonsess to your discord, faggot devs
>>688121563BG3 has none of those things
>>688063956They don't even know
>>688123923the canonically have dicks tho
>>688124601all girls have little dicks, it's why they're so jealous
>>688071687Originally they were all female but "not exactly" in Mass Effect 1 because they wanted to skirt the line by including a gay romance (FemShep and Liara) but lore explain away it so it'd get approved by the higher ups, Liara has a few lines when you're love triangling with Kaidan and he says he didn't realize you were into women. Then in Mass Effect 2 they were all Female/Women proper, then in Andromeda there are now some that think they are dude's but its all just dumb pronoun injection shit
>>688063676Why does Bioware hate Qunari so much? They hinted at something vaguely interesting as an OC fantasy race in origins with Sten, and have been trying to radically shift course into something much lamer ever since.
>>688124852Fringe part of the lore is willingly handed over to the glorified interns turned main writers
>>688118909You're talking about mentally ill people and attention whores. In the past society would force them to act normal and lock those who can't away in institutions, now we're expected to affirm whatever made up bullshit delusions they have.
>>688063956For the majority of people that actually use the term, they just mean that they dont fit in the masculine/feminine stereotype and they're too dumb to understand that it's only a stereotype and a persons character doesnt have to be tied to the sexual stereotypes. They're male and female, but they cant accept these "binaries" because it somehow burdens them with perceived expectations to be masculine or feminine, in the hollywood style, which is not real and never has been. So they make up their own bullshit as a projection that should shield them from people's expectations, but it utterly fails because it's fucking dumb that a tomboy or a nerd would cave in like that.

>>688063676Men like him would have been brutally murdered in his people's culture according to previous lore. Why is this thing allowed to exist in this game's universe?

>>688066016I haven't seen anyone on the left fight against the male draft. You're either outright lying or an idiot
>>688128630to be fair that's probably just because the countries the leftists are from don't have *any* draft at the moment, if a new war starts and it becomes an actual issue then I'm sure there'd be plenty of people complaining about male drafts from both the left and right
>>688076392I always thought guys who troon out have nobody to blame by themselves, but now after seeing this shit I realize the media has been absolutely weaponized to the point that even a woman, who has the easiest life on the planet, falls victim to this mind virus fabricated by Jews (who are majority of doctors, media platform owners, and bankers, as well as politicians) who want nothing more than to eat the young.This shit doesn't end until Jews are subject to genocide. It would be justified many times over at this point.
they really saw tranny gate 3 and thought>wow lets mimic this woke slopwithout realizing that the only reason bg3 was so well received is because of streamers like asmongold, who spinned it as a gaming culture war win becaues its "the first and only game where the devs care!"
>>688071048Post the OC, anon.
>>688129329It was well received because you can play a barbarian and unga bunga your way through fights and conversations alike.
>>688071048Keep fighting the good fight
>>688129527no it was well received because you can fuck a bear and get fucked by dudes in the ass
>>688129412seconding thisfor science probably
>>688063676The first fucking thing Bioware needed to fix was the facial animations from Andromeda. BUT THE FUCKING DIDN'T ITS THE SAME IN VEILGUARD
>>688129527this
>>688126793Christ, boomers have finally invaded 4chan.
>>688104863>>688105182It certainly helps that she's kind of a dorkcorrect her on pronunciation and she looks like a lost puppy.
>>688129894Yeah I thought Andromeda taught them a lesson. I guess not
>>688130357Her romance is surprisingly cute once you get past the initial bits.
more like non buynary. get it? because im not gonna buy it
>>688063676Does anyone know if we can refuse companions in this? A large amount of the companions in every other game could be turned down or missed if you weren't interested in them. (Sten, Leliana, Zevran, Loghain, Fenris, Isabella, Bull, Sera, Vivienne all come to mind) It would be wild if this is the first game where you have to take the nigger elf and this abomination.
>>688130504You know what that means right? NOBODY GOT FIRED.
>>688130640Everybody got fired, anon, the entire Montreal studio was shuttered after a single game.
>>688130839How do we explain the Veilguard characters having the same dead lifeless facial animations then?
>>688131020Sheer, staggering incompetence.
>>688130620They said it’s a found family so I’m expecting you can’t be mean to anyone
>>688131069Fucking christ. It was the main thing they were mocked for with Andromeda.
>>688063676Wasn't iron-bull a fag? Did I Mandela effect that?
>>688129894>>688130504Funny thing is, the reason facial animations in Andromeda are so scuffed is because, due to time constraints, they automatically keyed certain facial flexes to specific vowels, consonants, or expressions, similar to how TF2 does it. And while it works pretty well in TF2, a game with a very cartoony style where you generally don't look very closely at a character's face, in a realistic dialogue-heavy cinematic RPG, it looks all kinds of ass.
>>688130620>Does anyone know if we can refuse companions in this?Supposedly they can leave the group but they will still be around later in the game. I remember Epler saying that you'll need everyone to save the world. My guess is that it will be like DA2 and how you can not recruit or get rid of Anders. But he will inevitably return in the final act for the climax. I don't think you can kill these companions either.
>>688063676man this game is going to flop. the game director looks like pic related too. he's an ugly cock sucking faggot
>>688131219You could execute Anders on his return. And you could hand Isabela over to the qunari.
>>688131020Bioware hasn’t evolved in forever
>>688131182He was bisexual. He'd end up with Dorian (who is homosexual) if you didn't romance him, though.
>>688131395They devolved because Inquisition had better facial animations than Andromeda and it was the same engine.
>>688131219I don't understand why anyone would want to play this. they're forcing lgbthiv+ faggotry on you
>>688071332Videogames?
>>688130068He's not wrong
>>688131171To be fair, the game's animations in general were terrible. The facial animations were just extra noticeable because of the close-ups.
>>688131526I have a soft spot for the franchise and I loved both DA2 and Inquisition despite those games being generally disliked. I feel compelled to play Veilguard.
>>688131578yes it's an increasing problems in main stream video games
>>688072771Using government subsidized money to fund cultural programming ISNT capitalism and I'm ready to start killing people over thus, I've been hearing it for nearly 2 decades now Jesus fucking christ.
>>688131757Jesus christ what's wrong with you? those games are fucking bad. origins is the only playable one
>>688063676Hold on. Origins had Shale. A male golem who used to be a female dwarf. Did they forget heshe exists or is this some kind of um ack-shually bodyfluid doubletransracial doesn't count as real "non-binary" thing?
>>688131824there's no such thing as male or female golems. they don't reproduce. it's an old lady's sprit trapped in a giant rock
>>688131481Yeah, but Andromeda was made by a new branch office, staffed by a D-team of people who'd never worked in game development before. Of course, why the head office thought it was a good idea to hand off the next chapter of their wildly-successful sci-fi franchise to a stable of literal whos is perhaps a more serious indictment of their competence.
>>688131526>. they're forcing lgbthiv+ faggotry on youOrigins had two companions that were bisexual. You could spend an evening with someone of the same sex at the Pearl. As well as at the beginning of the Human Noble route.
>>688131969yes but you could also kill them
>>688131824No because non binary wasn’t a thing in 2009
>>688131969you think I let that elf faggot walk around with his head attached?
>>688132074Did I ask?
>>688132074Why does Leliana get a pass. She’s just as gay
>>688131823Bioware rpgs have a certain narrative structure of building a team and then there's the camaraderie you have with your companions and I like that. Andromeda was the first Bioware game that I could complete it was just so bad. Veilguard looks much more promising.... I think.
>>688132216>couldCouldn't*
>>688132145Not that anon but you know why. She's a woman and he finds it hot.
>>688132346Many such cases
>>688063956the opposite of binary non binarian computers have 3 states as opposed to the just 2 of boomer pcs
>>688132145You can't expect the French to not be gay, anon.
>>688132145Leliana is fun so she gets a pass
>>688133051Zevran's fun. He has good stories.
>>688133051Only if you turn her away from religion
>>688133139This and he has a interesting background
>>688133139Motherfucker betrayed me after I gave him like 2 gifts
>>688133139He's fun to be around and can be a good friend. A good lover, I'll let you be the judge.
>>688133271Did you even talk to him? Also those gifts were the leather gloves and boots, right?
>>688064984Who cares? Think about the stupidity of what you're asking here.What gender is a robotWHO CARESITS A ROBOT. ITS NOT A PERSON. IT CAN'T PROCREATE. Does it have a definitive male personality? Then you can use he but its OBVIOUSLY not a biological organism defined by the laws of observation as people and therefore does not serve as a gocha against fucking pronouns.
>>688133289Oh, I absolutely wouldn't get drawn into the nightmare that is his love life. He's a friend worth having, though.
