i've never been into these games, so i didn't follow the pre release or anything or have any info on this game. i just randomly watched an IGN review of the new game, and to me it looked pretty cool. scrolled down and it's like 20k dislikes to 4k likes or some shit, all the comments are complaining. i noticed the cast of characters looks 'diverse', is this actually a bad game or are gamers just crying because not everyone is a white guy?

I thought putting scars on a dude made him MANLY and BADASS and HEROIC. What changed??? I wonder...

Which way, western gamer?

It's especially brave in medieval fantasy. Imagine how many leeches and jars of wine are used.

I have to assume a wizard did it, so it's more to do with channeling energies from the demon realm. All perfectly safe.

In DA:I there's a trans character called Krem who mentions that there are wizards in Tevinter able to do gender affirming magic but that he's transitioning via non-magical means.

So I guess demons or leaches is a matter of personal preference.

If you like your leeches you can keep them
