> Liara: I'm not a woman Shepard. Male and female have no meanings in my species. We are non binary.That's so cool!!! it's 2012 so i'm not a radicalized loser so she's le hot space non binary babe! haha! so based!> Taash: Yeah so... um... I'm non binary. REEE THIS IS W*KE THIS SHOULD NOT BE IN VIDEOGAMES! VIDEOGAMES IN THE PAST WERE NOT LIKE THIS!
Asari were a retarded idea back then as well, yes.But they were hot, so it was OK.
>>739916167Farquaad bait thread
>>739916167Ashari are genetically non-gendered.Traash is literally a male tranny.
Felt tame because you could just be full blown gay
>>739916167she meant that genders were irrelevant for procreation which is completely different from DA tranny edition.
>>739916167Top>Weird alien whose species are literally monogender space succubiBottom>Qunari that doesn't follow the Qun but does follow the Qun who gets it in her head that she's the Main Character and that she's special because she breaths fire
>>739916167The difference is that the Asari are hot and are clearly femme-coded. So it's like "WHOA!! GIRLS IMPREGNATING GIRLS!!"Meanwhile, Taash is fucking ugly and her personality is obnoxious.
>>739916167Except Liara never said that. All Asari are gendered as female, and explicitly stated to be female. They are just gender neutral when it comes to a procreative partner. But, of course, where would you be without purposely misunderstanding and misrepresenting the arguments, eh OP?
>>739916167Asari are all female. Nice try though.
>>739916167Do your reps cuckie!
>>739916752did somebody really get paid to write this shit or am I being memed
>>739916850It was either the writer living out a fantasy because he's also nonbinary or him being nonbinary is some sort of long con and he hates them so he writes them to be insufferable attention whores
>>739916167>That's so cool!!!Literally nobody reacted like that, everyone though it was kinda weird but it makes sense I guess
Liara making em seethe almost 20 years later
>>739916167I feel the main problem was simply the overly-modern terminology in a setting that had initially presented as faux-medieval.If Taash's issue had been presented as:"I feel no great Kinship with the others of my own sex; for all such difference to me feels hollow. The Qun teaches 'For the world and the self are one. Existence is a choice. A self of suffering, brings only suffering to the world. It is a choice, and we can refuse it.' And therefore this choice to be defined by sex is one that I refuse."Then it'd have gone down more tolerably then the terminology straight from California that we got Taash speaking at us.
>>739916167Liara is a member of an alien species that we know doesn't even look like that, because when different aliens look at Asari, they're going to see something they find attractive. The Qunari is in fact, just a faggot.
>>739916752>Those elbows
>>739916752thank you based SJWs for creating an intuitive workout routine for meNIGGER>does pushups
>>739916167Dipshit fishing for (you)s not understanding nuance. Color me Goddamn shocked
>>739917080DND and western fantasy have been taken over by woke theater kids, that's how you get "my rogue tiefling is a nonbinary pansexual" and "I may be an evil necromancer warlord but I would never say slurs or be bigoted"
>>739916167>Liara's definition of non-binaryA coven of hot horny blue space sluts (all women) that crave BHC.>Taash's definition of non-binaryCurrent year twitter label for an ugly unfuckable monster.
>>739916850yes, but they got fireddon't worry though, bethesda apparently hired some of them to save them from unemployment
>>739916167Andromeda brought pronoun shit to the Asari
Okay but Asari are sluts who have mind sex with anyone and all look like hot women and that ogre on the bottom just talks about privledge and respecting zer pronouns all day.
>>739916473> My politics go out the window the second it's my fetishwow
>>739917841That doesn't matter because anyone with taste picked the Tomboy Turian sisters to fuck and ignored the other romance options.
I love Liara!
>>739917887people have been finding lesbians hot and gay people gross for decades
My politics go out the window the second it's my fetish
>>739917841That doesn't matter because no one played that.
>>739916576>All Asari are gendered as female, and explicitly stated to be female.You didn't play the game.
>>739917980Based porn addict incel
>>739917467why is being evil and not being racist being nonsynonymous such an issue with you guys? it'd be different if the character was outright MEANT to be racist but didn't actually do any offensive racist things, but being an evil necromancer warlord doesn't automatically come with the character trait of being racist.
>tfw the Asari you paid to have mind sex with you gets pregnantxhe said xhe was on mind birth control, what the fuck do I do now?
>>739918160why would a evil necromancer care about not being seen racist enough to explicitly state they aren't racist to people they're trying to kill and turn into zombies
>>739916167lollmao even
politics didn't exist before I started pretending to understand it ahh posters.
>>739917467> DnD in the past was never woke!!!lol.lmao.
>>739918230that doesn't happen 99% of the time, it's a complaint about a non-issue. when would that even happen in a non-comedic context, the bad guy going "whoa whoa whoa hold up, im not racist guys i want to kill EVERYONE!"
>>739917467>that's how you get "my rogue tiefling is a nonbinary pansexual" It's shit but so are 99% of D&D characters.>"I may be an evil necromancer warlord but I would never say slurs or be bigoted"Because there are different kinds of evil and plenty of villains just aren't bigoted. I'm not sure why a Necromancer trying to achieve eternal life would care to be racist or homophobic. The best argument you could make is that it's weird the religions and nobles aren't bigots' because spreading racism and bigotry is how autocracies stay in power.
>>739916752gross
>>739917841Andromeda? As in the Andromeda galaxy? What's that got to do with Mass Effect?
>>739918386why would anyone care to not be racist or "bigoted"? You're being bigoted against bigots.
>>739918317People usually post the Joker hating Nazis. Because you know, he's mentally a very coherent person.>>739918415They don't care about their feelings. They are beneath them.
>>739918168I can't believe you fell for that shit, bro. Asari can choose if they get pregnant from a meld or not. They don't need birth control. Have fun taking care of a blue parasite until you die of old age lmao.
>>739918160
>>739918561hilarious when this happened, I never thought miscegenation would be considered too racist
>>739918561I mean, I agree they should remove it but mostly because it's fucking stupid.
>>739918462the joker thing is cringe as hell but like i said its an exception>i love wanton murder of innocents but when its BIGOTED wanton murder that's too far! i have to stop this!>>739918561whats that got to do with villains
>>739918059Ah, another bitch taking the conversation between random NPCs as lore gospel.
>>739916752Genuine question, why and how did these kinds of theater kid people end up in the video game industry when they didn't like video games during or before the early to mid 2010s and just thought it was gay fantasies for incels? Where did they come from?
>>739918645>I'm an evil villain BUT I'd never have sex outside my haplotype I'm not a heckin chud
>>739918561>learns more>adjusts behaviour>chuds piss themselvesReally makes one think.
I may be a serial killer who escaped a high security dungeon and strangled the guards, but I would never misgender someone when laughing at their attempts to catch me
>>739918676>Genuine question, why and how did these kinds of theater kid people end up in the video game industry when they didn't like video games during or before the early to mid 2010s and just thought it was gay fantasies for incels? Most of them loved video games growing up. Hated what the medium and the fandom was turning into during the mid 2010, and then set out to improve them instead of just complaining about it.
>>739918676it happened to all industries
>>739916167I mean ye they were better at hiding their wokeslop in media, but that's the point. They're brazen now and you get the ugly woke aesthetics + woke messaging, which wasn't the case before.
>>739918752>Most of them loved video games growing up.No they didn't lol
>>739918692i dont know the point youre trying to argue here. that there's a universal "we're not racist" blanket cast over the entire universe of DnD? i agree that's a dumb concept but it doesnt really address my point.
>>739918837He's obviously being retarded for (you)s. Then again maybe you are too I dunno.
>>739916167I enjoy the fact you force yourself into pretending you don't know the difference
>>739918880Are you talking to me or the guy behind me?
>>739916167>psychic alien creatures VS>mental illness
>>739918729>I may be a villain who wants to murder half the planet for laughs, but I would never fail to make sure my dark tower of sorcery is wheelchair accessible
>>739918837Yes they did. Most of them grew up with early 2000 kino.
>>739918852D&D says it is racist and evil for a white man and a black woman to have a mixed race child.
>>739916167Yea but the asari have big blue dongs and really tight cunts as well, they all look like fine blue bitches regardless.That ugly horned freak is a dude pretending to be a woman, something he will never be.
>>739918251>trying to use Andromeda as a gotchaCope Harder.
>>739918953again i agree thats stupid but were talking about villains and how theyre written
>>739918941Dunno what you gain from lying about this
>>739917467The worst shit about this is that mindraped beholder that literally is showing the effects of a 9th level mind control spell on its multiple eyes.
>>739919032And all villains nowadays are written as "SURE I'M EVIL AS HECK BUT I WOULDN'T DO A RACISM like, checks notes, having a mixraced child EVEN EVIL HAS STANDARDS"
>>739916167Liara's entire character isn't summarized into DEI genderless person Taash isits that simple
>>739918251Translation>Some asari prefer to shove their 24 inch cocks in holes while others don't care if they are shoving or getting shoved
Liara isn't genderless, she's a woman with big boooba (in the sequels) who wants to fuck (you)
>>739919058Same
>>739918645
>>739916167Asari are an all female species. In Andromeda there was an Asari that lectures another npc about pronouns and identity, but that game is shit and non canon.
>>739919080no, they really aren't. 99% of the time its not even addressed. we don't know what ganondorf's specific feelings towards zora are.
>>739916850It could just be early AI, no doubt programming companies had access to it before we did.
>>739919252>non canonyou wish, ME4 will be woker than failguard
i'm seeing alot of contradictory information here
>>739919296Because there's lots of retards on the internet congratulations
>>739918160It's the same thing as the people who insist that a villain who would kill would also be willing to rape. They're two different sins that require two different personality traits.
>>739916167One is a biological fact which does happen in some species of lizards. The other is a mental illness with no basis in reality.
>>739918462>People usually post the Joker hating Nazis. >Because you know, he's mentally a very coherent person.>>739918645>the joker thing is cringe as hell but like i said its an exceptionThat's a callback to when the US mafia helped the war effort by flushing out spies and saboteurs. Fascist Italy tried to recruit them to their side but they declared themselves loyal Americans.
>>739919230you keep pointing out the various ways the retards in charge of DnD are running the show but that has nothing to do with anything. why is it inherently contradictory for a villain to not be racist?
>>739919407what's really funny is how they need to keep retconning qunari in each game because they're not woke enough so they have to invent new wokeness that says the previous wokeness wasn't woke enough
>>739919079That's actually a nice subtle touch, thanks for pointing it out.
>>739916167>these two things have a single adjacent characteristic they share>therefore they are the same thingare you one of those retards that claim people who like catgirls are furries too?
>>739919472There is no such thing as "not racist"
>>739919472
>>739916167liara is hot, that's the difference. just look at your image lol
>>739916752That's isabela? This one? The fuck?
>>739918664 A conversation between npcs? Liara says "I'm not a woman shepard, male and female have no meaning in my species" in the very first game. Again, you guys didn't play the game. WHy are you like this? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xPCKyFrp0FU&list=PL5FD60C191BF120C6&index=2
>>739918886> It's ok for old games to have non binary characters, blacks everywhere, indians, dykes, etc> IT'S NOT OK FOR NEW GAMES TO DO IT OK!?!?MmmmmmWhen are you guys gonna admit you're just retards who got radicalized?
>>739919180>>739919252Why didn't you porn addicts play the game? I'm asking you to play Mass Effect 1. You won't even touch a 2007 game?
>>739919914see >>739918886
LARPERSLARPERS ALL OF YOU
>>739919797> I'm ok with woke shit so long as it fuels my porn addictiongot it
>>739916167Mass Effect>Entire species that appears female but matches each other physically/biologically, so concepts of gender differences don't exist to the point that terms like non-binary don't even have a role since there isn't a binary to reference. All of which is kept "in universe", so even when their gender is discussed as a concept, they never use modern terms we have in our current society.Dragon Age Veilguard:>Character comes from a known race that abhors individualism to the point that roles are defined and it appears nonsensical to defy. Characters will literally be confused as to why a farmer would want to be a warrior, or a scholar would want to be a trader. Religion and belief systems are so extreme that people are constantly executed to keep the norms in place. All terms that are used to define different roles and kinds have specific, in-universe language akin to made up things like, "Ah'shalok">Character completely and totally defies these roles and beliefs, doesn't follow the majority religion, and even uses direct terms like non-binary to define themselves despite the Qunari likely having a term for that (I think her mother even says something like, "Oh, so you're [Term].">Character also holds internalized prejudice to the point where they'll rag on others for things outside their control and/or label them based on what's on the surface despite being told not to (see calling the one mage a "death mage" despite him repeatedly telling her that's offensive and not something he feels comfortable being called)Great bait, but the fact that I know some people genuinely had this argument when the game came out is exhausting. There are good ways to write this shit, DAV was not managing to write it well.
>>739919838That part of the conversation is about asari reproduction. Liara is talking about how their partner's sex doesn't matter for reproduction because asari don't reproduce sexually.
>>739919510Ah yes, the 'all whites are inherently racist because they automatically have white privilege' argument
>>739918676They are failed movie/tv writers. Thus, since games are viewed as narratively weaker than most mediums, they monkey branched into the games industry.
>>739918717learns more about what? racism is when racemixxing can occur? doesnt seem very learned or woke to me
>>739920002try looking at the picture
>>739916167Liara was disgusting and unlikable as well.We all remember who best girl is.
>>739916167Isn't that weird? It's almost like there's good writing in one of them.>One is an alien that can procreate with any species, overriding it's genetics to create more of their race.>The other is a confused faggotOne has world building, and the other is a faggot because the creative director is a faggot.Nevermind the fact that some Asari can go so sexually crazy, they get sent to some prison planet for multiple homicides.That last part is the only thing the Asari have in common with troons.
>>739920320Having the non-binary character hold her own set of racist/prejudiced beliefs is actually a nice touch.
>>739919219I'm glad we agree, enjoy the rest of your night.
>>739920992Agreed, but when they're written in an insufferable manner where they don't grow, become a better person, and your character can barely do more than admonish them when they're being genuinely offensive and cruel to others, it makes it hard to really care for them.Writing characters who are frustrating, annoying, or hold deeply unpleasant beliefs can be great. But when they continue to be insufferable from start to finish with little growth beyond exploring what they want (in this case Taash understanding her gender identity), it just leads to an insufferable character overall. They need to change or grow. If they don't, you've just made a character people dislike who you also want the audience to root for since they're supposed to be a protagonist.
>>739921170>Taash understanding her gender identity>her
>>739916167i just realized mass effect ripped off farscape hard
>>739918676They were "gamers" AKA kids during the 2000s who mostly grew up with baby tier DS games and The Sims while reading a lot of YA fantasy books who then got into gaming proper around 2010-2012 as teenagers and were the "popular" wave responsible for the modern state of things. Or their male counterparts who drunk the cool-aid because woman.Basically the natural evolution of the fujo women who only played JRPGs and The Sims while writing Buffy fanfiction.Dragon Age in particular garnered a massive amount of them because Fenris and unintentionally Anders in DA2 were almost tailor made to appeal to teenage girls on tumblr who then worked their way into the industry from there.Bioware between Fenris, Anders, and tragically Garrus are directly responsible for the later 2010s-early 2020s crop of woke women writers in video games, so them reaping what they sowed is natural.
>>739916167except she and the codex state that they are women but they just don't have standards of gender because they never needed themits why Aria calling that Krogsn Patriarch was such an insult
>>739916334why do we let that nigger post on this site anyway
>>739921961>GarrusHow did right-wing vigilante space Batman inspire woke women? He was tailor-made for what we'd now call chuds.

>>739919079>Brainwashing is fine when WE do it
>>739921871Nah it pulled stuff from a bunch of sci-fi shows and movies, because it was obviously made by sci-fi nerd devs.For ME1 anyway, the sequels slowly got invaded by fags and EA suits.
>>739922034Because this site bleeds money and sctizos are the most prolific bumpers and drivers of discussion.Basically every board's jannies now defend their sctizos from criticism unless they start bosting NSFW content on blueboards or other TOS violations.
>>739919291>you wish, ME4 will be woker than failguardI like to believe the ME4 Devs saw the raping that Veilguard's Devs received and were told they would be sent to Brazil is they go full pants on head retarded and start retconning left and right
>>739916167>Liara: I'm not a woman Shepard. Male and female have no meanings in my species. We are non binary.I allow it because she is hot>Taash: Yeah so... um... I'm non binary. Ugly faggot, fuck offJust like in reality. Passing ladyboys are ok

>>739921226No, she actually is a girl. She is just ugly
>>739916752>Theres not time for big drawn out apologies>So let me stop the entire conversation or anything I've been doing to perform a humiliation ritual to placate someone over a slip of the tongueThe lack of self awareness in so many of this game's scenes is honestly kind of amazing.
>>739922169I made this point in the DnD group I've been part of for over a decade when they tried to forcibly retire the level 17 Half-elf Bladesinger Wizard I had been running for six of those years. Suffice to say, I'm not allowed to participate in any DnD in my local area anymore because they didn't have a rebuttal.
>>739916279Fippity bip. Sexy makes right.
>>739922157>How did right-wing vigilante space Batman inspire woke womenThey want to fuck him. They also want to read yaoi featuring him. The BG3 writer brags about reading millions of words of Mass Effect fanction on her fucking LinkedIn.
>>739916167The only ones who like liara are closeted gays.
>>739922509>The BG3 writer brags about reading millions of words of Mass Effect fanction on her fucking LinkedIn.Grim, but if true that explains why BG3 characters are so insufferable.

"Proper Qun has never been tried before. The other one doesn't count!'
>>739922157Masculine, competent, nice voice, sensitive side, drama filled life but doesn't break over it, nerd women are way more prolific true monsterfuckers than men are, can be a partner and even kinda an equal but never overshadows your Shepard, women get off to character dynamics and drama in their porn equally if not more than straightforward attractiveness.Really he basically the perfect woman if they have the minimum level of tism to find non-humans attractive.
>>739922410> they can't read/write characters/organisation that aren't cartoonishly evil to have an even midly "bigoted" or mildly conservative outlook on life/politics because it might make people think THEY support those politics.The exact same thing happened to the Templars. Originally the Templars and Mages conflict is nuanced. There were conflicted Templars and Pro-Circle mages because it was a balance between real danger and individual freedom. Now, the Templars are evil (and religion evil too, of course) and Mages are the poor oppressed didn't do nuthin's.
>>739922157Unironically just his voice
>>739922720Notice how Veilguard avoids any mention of the Templar-Mage war? Notice how there is zero mention of the Circle of Magi?
>>739922796It takes place in Tevinter....
>>739922410>can't read/write characters/organisation that aren't cartoonishly evil to have an even midly "bigoted" or mildly conservative outlook on life/politicsI swear every issue with modern writing is the annoying shit women are doing
> I need my evil necromancer to be racist>> Why?> B-because uhhh he's evil so he should be racist!So you guys agree that racism is evil? got it.
>>739918676In addition to other factors already mentioned, a lot of people, PARTICULARLY the type of socially inept nerds that made vidya back in the day are both huge simps and spineless in general when it comes to standing up to social norms.They became woke because their co-workers, women, and society pressured them to be woke. But a lot of them, not all, but a lot, would also have been literal hardcore Nazi party supporters if they had lived in Germany at the right time.
>>739916167Liara said she is monogendered, that her race are only women. They also literally breed through handholding, which is why women can impregnate each other, and breed children with other species. It's the reason why Liara's grandpa on Aethytha's side is a Krogan.The whole non-binary thing was an invention made afterwards.
>>739922416
>>739922854A place that was hit just as hard by the war due to the Venetori. Hell the fact that those guys somehow control the place despite them being straight up eradicated in Inquisition is retarded.
>>739922932Replace "Evil Necromancer" with "Morally Grey but still trying to do right Knight" and you got it.You need to have a centralizing pro-civilization mentality where the conflicts therein are from the friction points to get the argument.
>>739922854They still have Templar and maybe some kind of Circle. A Black Divine too for their heathen religion
>>739923065In what game are you talking about? Your first choice in Veilguard is to either save the city of innocent merchants unable to defend themselves but nobody cares about the city, or saving Tevinter which won't be hurt at all and barely anyone will die but the bad guys will take control. You're literally asked to make a tough choice between innocent lives or what's important for the mission.
>>739922932No it's the fact that racism has its place in fantasy and trying to pretend that it doesn't is retarded.>Dwarves will always hate elves>Orcs will always be savages>Humans will either hate or nonhumans or be looked down on by nonhumans >Gnomes are Jews 50% of the time>Goblins are either animals, savage rapists or Jews.. Or green shortstack semen demons built for human men. >Tieflings will always be disgusting demonpsawn>Beastfolk will always be treated like animals
>>739916167Never happened retard. Asari are all females.
>>739918251andromeda is practically lost media atpits not canon
>>739923139I read the thread and responded to the bad faith greentext that was swapping the Mage/Templar conversation happening right above it with a racial one in order to paint those who wanted it as absurd in a good faith manner, as to present how arguments for those who want more racial conflict actually present this stuff.
Sten literally fights for trannies lol
>>739923372Then why is the new game Mass Effect 7 and the number keeps going up?
>>739923289I have no idea what fantasy RPG I played like 18 years ago that had in game letters named "the orcish question" which was about subjecting them to basically conversion camps to make them civilized.
>>739923626I think that might be Arcanum. Y'know, the one with the Ogre on human female rape camps that were perpetrated by the gnomes to create Half-Ogre grugs for them
>>739923626Sounds like Arcanum
>>739922460This is bullshit. 1. How the fuck do you banned from DnD for your whole area? Even if you're in a small town there's no way every single group of these dumbasses communicates with each other and shares the exact same rules/mindset.2.Unless you're playing with Adventurer's League, how shitty is your group that they're gonna ban the race of the character you've been playing for years?
liara is plappable rapemeat thoTrash is a disgusting nigger tranny
>>739923626it's the gnomish question innit

>>739922410Bioware is a Canadian company
>>739918676The videogame industry got a lot of investment capital starting in the early 10s and used it to make cinematic games with grossly inflated budgets. At the same time colleges around the country were graduating like fifty times the number of theater kids that the traditional entertainment industry could realistically employ, so the surplus theater kids and the growing videogame sector were a natural match for each other.
>>739925175Canada is an American state.
Asari are literally 100% females who produce parthenogenically.
>>739923289I will not engage with a fantasy setting in any way if most of these aren't present
>>739923747Anon, you would be fucking surprised how petty some of the cunts in my local DnD community are. Like I'm straight up BANNED from setting foot in two of the places that host DnD nights because of this. These rats all co-ordinate in a discord server to 'keep undesirabls' out of their safe space even though myself and several of the others that were booted having been part of the ground for much longer. And as for the second part, they are retarded. They told me to just change it to either be human or elf and I said no because if I did, I'd be losing the Half-elf racials and it would gimp my character.

Asari were blue space bimbo fuckmeat who were given the last cycle's history directly by the Protheans but instead they just whored around riding cocks and downing drinks for the entire galactic Cycle they were ruling over using Prothean cheatcodes.the greatest mistake the Protheans ever made were trusting blueberries instead of HUMANITYFUCKYEAH
I do remember and honestly miss the time when trannies and non-binary shit were seen as a "live and let live" thing where nobody really had a problem with it unless they were a diehard conservative (that everyone found annoying) or it somehow fucked with your life very directlythe fact that people now have a problem with genderless characters at all is crazy to me, nobody had beef with that in the past, people just intuitively got that an alien not being gendered meant they were just some weird ethereal advanced culture
>>739917467I dont think even the gayest of gays likes things this overtly fruity and saccharine. Feels almost like its taking a jab at them.
>>739926535there's like a certain genre of queer person that enjoys hyper-escapism like this but the average person no
>>739916167Yes asari are literally space parasites that release pheramones to make them look desirable and idealistic to any males of any species they see. Banshees are unironically closer to what asari actually look like without mind altering space chemicals they expel constantly. (just like all troons look when you take the makeup and fake prosthetics off.)
>Asari: Good. You opened this message. This isn't actually asari military command. They're busy tending to what's left of their planet.So you survived our fight on Thessia. You're not as weak as I thought. But never forget that your best wasn't good enough to stop me. Now an entire planet is dying because you lacked the strength to win. The legend of Shepard needs to be re-written. I hope I'm there for the last chapter. It ends with your death.-KL

>>739916752This woman used to be a slave trader btw
>>739926379Yeah its the same thing jews pulled with niggers, spics, and faggots. they always want to just live love and laugh and get along with everyone else until you actually give into them and then they want to kill you, rape you, steal from you, and destroy everything you have ever known or loved because they are literal demons.

there has to be a site other than here or reddit
>>739927483still waiting on that uprising
Asari were nonbinary but really they were just all women and used she/her pronouns and they actively fucked every alien in existence so it doesn't have the same baggage they/them faggots have.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7KWkao73HuUnothing past 2-3 is canon
>>739916167Charisma 20 vs Charisma 2 deliveryTaash makes the concept look cringe
>>739927670>nothing past 2 is canonftfy
>>739927738You misunderstand. I mean section 3 of 2
>>739927754I accept all of it, baby reaper being retarded and all. It's still better than anything that came after.
>>739927738>nothing past 1 is canonftfy
>>739917635hahahaha the barves. oh man that was some funny shit.
How can these modern rpgs be full of explicit sex/gender/fetish shit, but somehow at the same time completely fail to actually put anything anyone actually likes in, like having sexy futanari or monster girls
>>739928226>like having sexy futanari
>>739927889Most of 1 shouldn't be canon. I'm playing it and it's so fucking stupid and poorly written. I mean, it's a video game, so that's to be expected.>>739928268There are two types of people in the world: those who like cocks, and liars.
>>739916167Yeah? Words have meanings. Asari all have one gender. They are literally non-binary by definition.
>>739929068Non-binary doesn't have a definition, because it's made up shit by psychopaths. Asari are women, as they give birth.
>>739916167You're autistic
>>7399277382 isn't canon, only 1 and a few parts of 3 that tied up loose ends
>>739916167There are many obvious differences that everyone can see. Here is a fun one. In the context of the fictional world of Mass Effect, what Liara is referring to is real. It conforms to her biology and to reality. Whereas Taash, in the context of the fictional world of Dragon Age, is claiming a falsehood. Her ideology goes against her biology and goes against reality.
>>739929515Nothing in 3 is canon, and some shit in 1 (especially everything about the reapers) should be discarded.
>>739929854just say you don't like the series and move on
>>739929245>>739929245Human gender is binary because you have two alternatives to chose from. Male or Female. Asari only have one gender, female. You do not have a binary option of two alternatives. Ergo Asari are non-binary when it comes to gender because female is the only option.
>>739916167/v/ never had a problem with trannies as long as they were hot.It’s the disgusting freaks you mentally ill leftists created that we have a problem with.
>>739916167The qsaro all called themselves women.
>>739916752I forgot how fucking awful this game was.Fucking sad because I really liked Origin back in the day
>>739930191No, trannies are insane and tyrannical. If we were fine with them it was in the same way we're fine with flat earthers. It is good to make fun of them and if they keep their mouth shut they can even visit the site.
>>739918561I'm going to be honest: I'm not American, and I'm trying to understand why a mixed-race person is considered racist. It's literally the least racist thing there is: the fruit of the union of two races. You have to be attracted to someone of another race and have sex with them.How is that racist?
>>739930354Yeah this is weird. I get terms like "half" and "mixed" could be used negatively. And words like mongrel are historically bad and pure are good and positive. But by removing "mixed" concept from media is diminishing it's value even more? It's like saying only pure races are worth to exist. Shouldn't they want to normalize these terms?
>>739930354Well, our Leftist are simply lying. They use the term "racist" as a rhetorical weapon to shame people into doing what they want, as opposed to convincing someone to their side with reason and logic. It may seem confusing, but basically, they never actually meant "racist" in a way you or I might understand the definition of the word. It is just a magic word that lets them manipulate others. So, any contradictions or hypocrisy you notice is just because you still think they care about what the words they use mean.
>>739930508I see, that explains it. Thanks for the explanation. These people need to look up from their history books, sit down in an empty room, and start reflecting on their values. It’s normal to have contradictions, but this is going too far.
>>739918953she looks nothing like her in the game
>>739928416
>>739916167yet asari had no problem assuming female gender metaphorically despite having none, and exploit the global society through it, which makes them more mentally aware and empathetic than any tranny in existence, who can't even accept their own body
>>739930957He was talking to you.
>>739916167>person pickpockets me ten seconds agowow I didn't even notice anything, what a nice encounter>realize I was pickpocketed when I get home and can't find my walletshit, I can't get mad about it, that would be hypocritical
>>739930646bigot you make me scream in despair*this post is satire*
>>739918676They are from Archive of Our Own, Wattpad and DeviantArt. They can write quite a lot and many end up writing novels they sell through Amazon. In their community, it's is essential to fit in ideologically, there are certain words they cannot use and they won't. Self-censorship is essential. They write fiction that indulges them and they are rarely criticising anybody, as long as it doesn't break the hidden rules. These people are perfect for corporate spaces. The answer simply is... they are the only ones who write. Chuds and incels neither read or write. And if they do, it's just asinine complaining about Jamal moving into the neighbourhood.
>>739916167>I'm not a woman Shepard. Male and female have no meanings in my species. We are non binary.She never said that.
>>739916850Both. OP's shit is the difference between Patrick Weeks, and 'Trick weeks and his formerly female domestic partner.
>>739917080The main problem was that they wanted it as a topic to begin with. Sten would NOT have put up with this bullshit.
>>739917792>>739916850Some of the writers for that game got hired for Ghost of Yotei. They apparently kept the spergout under control, but the writing on that is much worse than Tsushima.
>>739930354Racisim has pivoted beyond MLK's vision of a lack of discrimination, and equal treatment, and towards "anti racism" where everyone is called upon to give unequal treatement in order to correct past wrongs. In doing so, people are attempting to address smaller and smaller problems, and not worrying about being hilariously racist.

>>739933637you need to take a closer look at the devs and writers then. the guy who wrote taash is non binary himself

>>739916167>>739916279Asari were never hot, MEfags are mentally gay. Liara is a huge cunt as well.
>>739926852The worst part of this message is how he assumes I actually care about thessiaI'd have given them the batarian treatment if the game let me
>>739934782
>>739932806No, and no.They probably don't even have what we'd think of as full vaginas, since their 'sex' is conducted via. skin-to-skin psionic contact. Pee shoot/birthing canal yes; but nothing that's supposed to receive any other organ from anybody.

>>739916752This had to go through a meeting and everyone somehow said ''yes, this is ok''
>>739918561how is it racist? also who cares? it's fiction, the entire appeal of this fantasy stuff is to see how the different races behave, learn their different cultures and history, how the world reacts.
>>739919291like star wars, nobody cares about mass effect anymore. only battered bioware housewives do
>>739916167>We're nonbinary>Just blue women with fringesBabylon 5 did it better and they dropped the concept after the pilot episode.
>>739936563All Babylon 5 did better was dying before anyone who had sex realized it existed.
>>739918160Being racist is natural
>>739918160Why can't the racist be the good guy in any story?Same reason.
>>739918160I think its kinda funny how to have those types of characters. Not in an endearing way, but an absurd way. Like Trevor from GTA is a mentally disturbed, psychopathic, loud, murdering, drug using subhuman but will take OFFENSE to the idea of racism or sexism. It feels like they're trying to give them redeeming qualities to balance out how horrific of a human they truly are. Which is just shit writing. Tony Soprano was way worse of a person than Trevor was but was more naturally likeable to audiences. He commits the same actions but because hes not being written by failed auteurs who launder money through videogames it feels natural.

That not everyone is following these strict guidelines like they're under TOS irl, or that if a character is offensive, it's not an event where everyone has to stop and acknowledge it, it was offensive and the world moved on, because that's how things are, there's occasional casual offensive stuff and it doesn't need an intervention every time it happens. The game doesn't have to lecture you afterwards, or be a message about prejudice.
>>739917278>me after 1 hour on 4chan
>>739936885>Deus Ex Human Resources
I really am curious how the Asari talked their way out of the revelation they were hiding a VI and always knew the Reapers were coming.There is no chance they maintained their position as the dominant race nor their status on the Council.

>>739916167this just isn't true, if you go to the codex in ME1 it says its a sexually female race. the only reason male and female has no meaning to them is they're all female.

They’ll play Fallout, Assassin’s Creed and even Call Of Duty, which have these progression elements – you’re putting points into things – but they don’t necessarily associate that as an RPG. So we think that if we expand that out we’ll attract a much bigger audience.”it's been a standard thing for at least 20 years now, they don't care about the people who bought the previous product, they care about the people who didn't
>>739929973>>just say you don't like the series and move onThe characters in the series are better than the series itself, and the Reapers were handled so bad, that the arc killed the franchise.This is fact.

>>739936885They are all performative; that is the worst part—zero sincerity and authenticity. Everyone is sometimes bit bad or racist to some degree.. or just have playful moment where he say something silly. These people just live their lives for social media/stage, and at this point they likely do not even understand what it is like to be authentic. So their writing is full of self-irony, nothing is serious,, you on the joke right? or woke signaling for other kids on the stage.
>>739954190i agree, he is definitely one of the most painfully cartoonists out there
>>739921871Mass Effect is Revelation Space + Star Control II with a bit of Babylon 5 on top.

>>739916967Patrick Weekes? Yeah, he became a massive faggot. Or he always was and Mordin was a fluke.
>>739916752Remember when they tried to tell us it was the suits forcing them to put gay shit in games?
>>739949232>That makes total sense, yeah they do look and sound completely like women, and just didn't know until they saw men out in space.Also they are coping and rationalising their love of BHC further proving they are women
>>739923289>Gnomes are Jews 50% of the timeThis is my favorite fantasy trope.
>>739916167asari are space bimbos that want to fuck everythingthe other is some ugly manfaced creatura slinging around tumblrismsi know you're not here to make a good faith argument, but i'll laugh at you for pretending to be retarded anyway
>>739942969Basically, trannies and women turned themselves into politics so now every voter is allowed to have an opinion on their personal lives since it's mainstream politics
>>739942540> Dyke feminist whores are uhhh based so long as it's a 2007 game and not a 2020 one!You must thing TLOU 2 is based as fuck
>>739943005Dragon Age 2. That's where the rot began to fester. And I positively hate the revisionism that it's somehow "actually really good" when even I as a kid who'd ploughed through Origins and Mass Effect 1 read the article in Game Informer and then played the demo was in awe of just how bad it looked and played.
>>739918561>in an attempt to be progressive we basically said mixed couples and offspring do not exist Man that sounds like something /pol/ or stormfront would do not the wokies in charge of fantasy...
>>739948160She literally gives a long as fuck conversation explaining she's not a woman in the first game. She does it like 3 times actually in the very first game (2007 btw) if you're female shepard to totally clarify to Fox News that she's not a dyke really. Why do you guys refuse to actually play old videogames? Are old videogames that bad?
>>739916752Jesus Christ this is so fucking cringe
>>739957341she can say she's not a woman all she wants but if it walks like a duck and has titties and and ass and lips like a duck
>>739957275EA buying them out was the beginning of the end. I don't see how anyone can argue otherwise. Liek you said DA2 but also ME2 becoming more action oriented, ruining the setting to make it more digestible to audiences.
>>739956968Taash wants to fuck everything and everyone too. She has a very aggressive sex scene with Rook and if you don't romance her she goes after Harding.
>>739957573I'll die on the hill that ME1 is the best in the series. Even with me being a Talifag.
>>739916850They technically lost money for it...
>>739942969This. Games were VERY DEEP regarding their politics before...Just admit you're a radicalized loser who thinks gays started existing post 2016 and move on.
>>739957208I would if the characters were hot.Lesbians in media used to be for "the male gaze."
>>739957819> I'm a porn addict incel, political shit is ok so long as i can masturbate to it!Based loser.
>>739957879Whatever /pol/cel, you are the same as redditors in my eyes.
>>739916167>ur a loser if you think asari look better than gayer mutant tupac
>>739957573EA, if anything, has been far too magnanimous. After ME3 they gave Bioware years upon years of dev time with minimal oversight, and Bioware did nothing but shit out flop after flop.DAI, which kinda sucked but was at least a financial success, came out in 2014. It's been 12 fucking years since Bioware put out something that hasn't been a complete failure. By rights EA should've killed them a decade ago.I suppose you could argue the most evil thing EA could've done was let nu-Bioware linger on its current state for this long.
>>739958039those threads were a lot of fun.
>>739958060> The issue is looks! if Taash was a bimbononbinary she'd be cool!
>>739916350Anyone who says anything that's not a variation of this is either a gooner, ignorant, or arguing in bad faith.
>>739958184yes if samara or liara started telling you about their gender identity and their preferred pronouns most men would go>ok yeah sure alright uh huh yeahand then afterwards put penis in them and not give a shit what they said
>>7399580393 really isn't very much for a giant humanoid swinging a big weapon. Even in a very plain scenario where the target is just standing normally and you're doing a normal horizontal swing around chest/waist level, you'd cut them into 4 pieces if you can cut all the way through, which should be a given from his size.
>>739958420
>>739957752
>>739958464Don't be ridiculous, I was talking about normal scenarios.
>>739958517> Non binary girlfriend who cooks for you and kills for you and is extremely racistAnd you guys hate her again because... why?
>420 posts of alt right zoomers seething about mass effectAnd this is why all threads on /v/ are either dead or shitThink about it
>Leave Taash alone!
i only played origins genuinly what are the other games about?
>>739927613Discord, without irony. TikTok was actually better, but a US company bought it and its getting worse and more progressive like everything else.
>>739959478They are all incredibly bad in their own way, don't bother.
>>739958789yeah totally better on r/gcj or Tumblr.Nek yourself you fucking clueless zoomer idiot.
>>739959478In 2 you follow Hawke's story about becoming the champion of Kirkwall and fleeing Ferelden because of the blight of OriginIn Inquisition one of the tevinter bad guys who supposedly started the Blight and which was woken up by Hawke in 2 comes back and the protag becomes a chosen one and leads an entire army to stop him.Veilguard you play as a member of a new secret agent trying to stop an old elven god in Tevinter from destroying the world to revive all his people but in the process other elven gods escape and start a blight again.
>>739957341Asari are literally women. Just because they don’t have males in their species doesn’t mean they aren’t all women. She has breasts, she has a vagina, she has a womb, she undergoes pregnancy. They have a magic brain component to the pregnancy wherein they manually sequence the genes themselves, but other than that they are just all blue space women. Taash is also a woman, but an amateur and mentally ill writer has decided a woman that doesn’t act perfectly feminine isn’t a woman, resulting in an insufferable teenager that ironically acts exactly like an insufferable teenage woman.
>>739957518>>739960772Asari don't have breasts, just ask turians and salarians.They literally mindrape you into thinking they look attractive and breedable, technically for fem shepard they should look differently compared how they look to male Shepard(but of course that would be too much work)Just saying
>>739961024That’s extrapolated from a single conversation and makes no sense because we know the physical space they fill. They aren’t glamoured fucking fey.
>>739958715Man face and grating personality
>>739957752Your critical mistake is blasians are hot and trannies are not
>>739958715Because I’m not really in to playing along with delusions as an integral part of the relationship, also her method of “flirting” causes me to cringe so violently that I may develop skeletal issues.
>>739916167The difference be; one was crammed in your face whether you liked it or not and had absolutely dogshit writing quality involved, given the go ahead by EA's bone headed market research and higher ups thinking that garbage was going to sell copies.The other one was Mass Effect at it's peak.
>>739916167Asari are manipulating cunts so they are real women.
>>739946605That would've at least been the "it's ma'am" kind of funny.
>>739916334qrd?
>>739963402Desperate to get to know all the 4chan drama?
>>739963402There was a guy that played RPGs and posted pics about his player character from several different games that looked just like Farquad but he was really proud of it. I don't know all the details but I remember some of the posts being obnoxious.
>>739958517Imagine Sten listening to this shit
>>739957341Good thing I not only played all three ME games, unlike you I read all the codex entries.
>>739916167The difference here is that one was trying to push an agenda while the other was half-decent sci-fi writing.
>>739933637>wokestuff is forced by publisher mot devsWe have direct statements from the devs social media themselves. Sam Maggs was not forced by sony to fuck up spiderman 2.Microsoft did not force Obsidian to make mandatory gay pride face fungus for the PC on Avowed. Corinne Busche wasn't forced to make Veilguard the complete mess it was either. Neither was 'Trick weeks.
>>739937107Can you think of anyone else on the planet who would try to make this equvalence?
>>739965159he'd only be able to hear it for a few seconds, then he'd be in a cage again
>>739947069The latest bioware doesn't have that anymore. Which reminds me. How is the new ME going?>>739948269That is from the literal board game I take it?
>>739967093>How is the new ME going?Owned by arabs and Jared Kushner. It's probably being overhauled to be heterosexual.
>>739965568That's not the codex that's the fan wiki lmaoooo
>>739967208I can't tell if this is shitposting any more. What a world.>>739957730The COMPANY lost money. The writers are for the most part still in the industry.
>>739967238It's a copy of the ingame codex though, it even has the narration: https://masseffect.fandom.com/wiki/Codex/Aliens:_Council_Races#Asari
>>739918676>still doesnt know who funds these things
>>739969392 (me)Also, this one is the ingame one: https://youtu.be/Lc4EKvgGHL4
>>739967238https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RIQu1yROUo4
>>739967238Thanks for your service!
>>739970701Are you retarded?
>>739951323>one is not not two!Uh yes it is? Having one gender is not the same as having two genders i.e. a binary of genders. So asari are not binary when it comes to gender because it's not a choice of two, it's a choice of one.
>>739971249Shhhh don't break the chud's little brain, he wants to believe wokeness started to exist when he got radicalized in 2020
>>739971249But they have literally infinite genders because they can choose to be whatever they want because gender is a meaningless concept. They only have one sex though, and it fits within the sexual binary.
>>739971249But you don't use non-binary for singular, any more than you use non-plural for singular.
>>739971417So they are a binary despite having no 2nd sex?
>>739971474As a species, but they are still female and engage in sexual reproduction as a female.
>>739971474Do you call your cola options non-binary, too?
>>739971578I suppose if your options were less than or greater than two. Though no one would really call it that. But just because you wouldn't say it in casual conversation doesn't mean that isn't what it is. Just like because most people would say "water" in conversation does not mean calling it H2O is wrong. The "bi" in the word binary means two, so as long as your soda options are not two, you COULD say you have a non-binary of choices.
>>739971578Your cola option is singular. There is no other.
>>739942270Elites invaded your hobby you dumb fucking nigger and I'm already halfway inclined to believe you're on their payroll.
>>739972251What are you talking about? There's Pepsi. Let alone Coca Cola itself has plenty of flavors, package types, light or with sugar, etc.Asari are all the same sex/gender. So they are non binary
>>739972426> G-games in the past just didn't have blacks or gays or feminism!>> Watches Lara Croft break gender roles and easily beat up and over power men since the 90s>> Watches Fallout 2 having gay sex and gay marriage>> Watches literally all media from the 90s and early 2000s be full of blacks all over the place like in Half Life 2MmMM
>>739916167>just pretending not to understand things
>>739916279>>739916167Asari were straight up a race of alien women with vaginas and tits. they explicitly have vaginas based on the banshee models on ME3 where they fucking modeled the clit and lips and shit for some reasonAlso all of the asari go by she/her until MEA. I think the closest thing you have to them doing weird gender shit would be Aria and Liara's "dad" being bulldykes
>>739973106They fit into a wider binary. They are literally female in every way as every race in the universe has simultaneously defined it. They just didn't know they existed within a sexual binary and literally fell into place with it when they discovered it. It's hack writing, but it's also fact.
>>739970567>>739970701>>739969585>>739967238>>739965568they didn't start doing the gay ass >asari are nonbinary muh pronouns shit until MEA. in the first 3 games asari were all explicitly hot alien women
>>739973238The Lara Croft you decried as a sexist stereotype for a decade prior?
>>739973106>There's PepsiOnly if you're gay.>Let alone Coca Cola itself has plenty of flavors, package types, light or with sugar, etcOnly if you're gay.
>>739973384There was not a single male lifeform on their entire planet? How does- actually, forget it. Obviously, none of it makes any sense.
>>739974245Anon, it's Mass Effect, the lore is puddle fucking deep. The only time we've ever seen Thessia was when it was a backdrop to the worst character in the franchise getting a bossfight. Asari Ecology is best described as "???".
The damage ME3 did to entertainment will never be fixed.Maybe if we go back in time and make Casey Hudson BEG to EA for another 6 month delay we can fix it, but we can't.
>>739973508> I saw some rage bait video in which an ugly woman said Lara Croft was sexualized!> So all the scenes in which she beats up and kills men and breaks gender roles is not feminism ok?!!?It's funny how rightoids keep pushing left to the point they are trying to appropiate feminism now.
>Casually ignoring how one is hot and the other is an ugly gorillaTranny
Notice how the same incels blaming jews for not being able to get a girlfriend now suddenly can recognize when attractiveness matters.Maybe you guys can't get a gf because you're ugly?
>>739974715It's amazing how every single character feminists decry as hateful and sexist become empowering in 5 years. Lara, Bayonetta, 2B, all of them. I can't wait for them to decide Stellar Blade is feminist because it sold well.
>>739918561Yesss AHAHAHAA YESSSS!!! ERASE THE MULATTO ERASE THE HAPPA, ONLY PURE BLOODED RACES ALLOWED! GOD BLESS TRUE RACISM! NO MUTTS ALLOWED! MONGRELS BEGONE!I had no idea how BASED the left had become.
>>739974919Lmao now tranny blade you guys are trying to claim as right wing? You "straight right wing men" really like games that let you BE a woman huh
>>739974897
>>739975035Gonna cry?
>>739975020And now you're trying to false flag, I guess? Pretty pathetic.
>>739958715Looks like a man
>>739916167But Liara isn in fact not a woman, but an ayyy. Tash is a woman that pretends mental illness is a sex.
>>739916752>the people that made this pretend chuds are the socially inept onesEven the most schizo /pol/lack is more sociable than these dorks.
What is with all the leftists on /v/ these days?
>>739916167> Liara: I'm not a woman Shepard. Male and female have no meanings in my species. We are non binary.she never says thatasari are a weird alien species they don't exist to tell a narrative about being nonbinary, unlike taash.
>>739976236eastern yuros are all leftists and love trannys and shit and the only recently got access to the internet via smart phones and they're on 4chan anyway so they can spam about russia due to generational butthurt
>>739972240>>I suppose if your options were less than or greater than two. Though no one would really call it that>>739972251>Your cola option is singularAh! Interesting.>>739973106Only Liara never calls herself non-binary. She calls Asari to be monogender.
>>739976507You didn't play the first game.
>>739976631Mono gendered species are literally non binary.
>>739976890>>739969585"Female" "Female" "All-female"
>>739977682Yeah, but that just means you didn't play the game.
>>739978530>ignore what the game says, my made up conversation that literally never happened takes precedence
>>739978631Just because you have a screenshot of the game that shows they/them being called female, it doesn't mean they/them're female in the game world.
>>739978631>my made up conversation that literally never happened takes precedenceYou didn't play the game. Why /v/ hates playing games.
>>739978826>Just because the knowledge resource the game uses to teach you about the world says something doesn't mean it's true
>>739978897Gimme a screenshot of the conversation line then, because that other anon gave you the codex entry. I'm not gonna go replay a 40 hour game from nearly two decades ago to check.
>>739977019Never referred to as such.
>>739965568With how often the codex gets disregarded by the actual games you'd have to be an idiot to take anything in it seriously.
>>739978826>they/themLiara is never referred to as a they/them in the games. It's always "she" and never "they". By anyone.

>>739980352>bald JackI accept this graciously.
>>739980352Do straight men have a personality beyond being mentally ill porn addicts?
>>739916167>LiaraHot = good>TaashUgly = bad
>>739980454Only in a society where horniness is so commonplace that its an ambient part of culture.If you try and contain the horny it just makes the condensed urge stronger and more unstable..
>>739916167Asari literally describe themselves as an all-female species rather than an a-gendered one. I have no idea where the idea that they are not gendered began, but retards have been saying it for nearly 20 years for some reason despite the games outright stating otherwise. They have wombs. They give birth, and presumably provide milk. I seriously don't understand anyone saying they're an a-gendered species. Anyway, Liara was invalidated as soon as Miranda showed up. Licking the sweat off Miri's body could keep me hydrated for life.
>>739977019Sure. By technicality. They aren't trinary or quaternary and etc. off into infinity. They are not "non-binary" in the way you or OP use the definition of the word.
>>739980454Do gay men have a personality beyond getting aids and trying to hit on me in bars? It's easy not to be a porn addict when everyone of your ilk wants to fuck your ass while you fuck their ass like some sort of horrific ouroboros. When you're straight, you're only having sex from age 15-30. After 30, every woman you meet is married or fat. Porn is your only option if you're not willing to fuck cheaters or fat women.
