this is sad, but, the migration of some gay video game influences to bluesky seems to be positively effecting discussion of Dragon Age lore. the past and fired employees who made these decisions are sharing about difficult questions, such as writing a divergent plot. (seems like Gaider doesn't think it's plausible) since Gamergate this niche internet argument I used to piss away hours has now become drastically more politically loud.

what I want from bluesky is the reflection on how to write stories with lots of different alternative endings. like older releases, there is never a failure to mention telemetry data. this time again about how nearly no one chooses most of those endings.

not that long ago, these same conversations over the last games were like: the telemetry data is all the players are straight men. you people in this echo chamber think you are loud but you have the options you deserve which is reflected in empirical data.

divergent stories can be done, but ex-writers say there are not enough resources. EA does not want to pay for the writers to make it possible for a Bioware game. they want to pump out FIFAs and barely keep the lights on for CRPGs. (thank the maker for Larian 🙏)

today reactionary men online think a nonbinary video game character in Dragon Age is also an ugly cow. but Taash is nonbinary, in those terms. this is now news brought to me by boomers.

Dorian in DAI never said he was gay. there are two games with all pansexual characters, none say the word pansexual. is there a reason this has happened for nonbinary? has EA finally decided we're their audience now?? feels bad, man

bluesky will surely become contaminated because becoming spam is the destination of all communications under capitalism, but at least the migration to bluesky was nicely timed to get more lore on these games
