I hadnt followed the game, but was intrigued by the little bit I did see of it months and months ago. I would have at least downloaded it on Gamepass or w/e. Now I wouldnt even bother pirating it. Has barely anything to do with "pronouns" themselves in it. But more specifically about what the pronouns signal about the rest of the game.

I can’t believe that guy isn’t fired. One way to go would be to start cancelling subscription services to Microsoft since MS ultimately owns them.

I really hope it's not gonna be like arx fatalis where you have to "paint the magical symbols" with the mouse. That was such an annoying mechanic. Otherwise, it's cool if they are expanding on the PoE campaign setting, hopefully one of the other kingdoms. I'm torn though because Obsidian has been showing a lot of wokeness, and as such should not be supported. The whole "tun heroes into queens and kings" sounds pretty sjw.

From 4 years ago. The writing was on the wall, just reinforces my view from back then, what a shame

That's ClownWorld for you. Honestly, I am surprised any major company allows their employees to even use social media at all this day and age. I am sure they all have clauses in their contract that allow them to be fired instantly for anything damaging to the companies sales.

The level of retardation is pretty fucking incredible. When your paycheck relies on a very specific customer base, you'd think it would be easy to avoid attacking them directly. Or hey, maybe they just don't like money. Or they're getting a bigger paycheck elsewhere, I guess.

fired?

look at the tweet.
"josh Sawyer retweeted"

culture of persecution at the studio.

Another piece of evidence for the "its not sweet baby inc, or black rock" forcing this shit on companies. the companies themselves are 100% in the cult, only hire cult members, persecute white men, etc. And again, its not that artists and creators are just magically more left leaning. its leftists blacklist, and form collectivist mafia's constantly. right wing individualists do not persecute people individually. Left wing collectivists do. its in the name. its core to intersectionality. its the entire point of intersectionality.

took a peek at his twitter. never even knew what the guy looked like. nerd build with sleeve tattoos and how he's more active at bsky. not surprised that obsidian is going down the drain.

My interest in this game was a 2/10 because I simply don't like first person RPGs as much as party-based.

Now, I doubt i will ever play it and I certainly won't be buying it.

RIP Bioware of the 90s.

I've watched 20+ videos on Sawyer's YouTube channel and it's obvious he's a shitlib, but I mistakenly got the impression that he wasn't completely on board with many aspects of the mind-virus.

It may be as simple as ego -- where he doesn't appreciate people bashing his work or he's 'protecting' his friends.

Regardless, fuck this game.

Josh Sawyer is about the only notable Obsidian dev left from the New Vegas days and he went full retard pod person years ago. The company was dead the moment Feargus forced out Chris Avellone, it's just taking them a long time to dig the grave.

Arch's vid does point something out. none of the early preview people talk about the char creator. talking about it was offlimits. art daddy up there, mentions "wait until he sees the default"

Speaking of, heres SKillups review of the preview. he does like it a lot. granted "only 6hours". he even says he liked FF's preview, and the full game sucked.


One thing I wasn't sure on. but watching skillups here...

so, you are forced to play a godlike. and, people said that...but it seems clear, its not just "a" godlike. its specifically a godlike to this specific fungus secret god.
I wonder if thats going to have a major backlash. Ain't nobody want to play as a last of us fungus zombie.

Sounds like the actual game could be fun, but as these devs double down on their shit, I definitely won't be giving them any money. I rarely pirate these days, but I'll give this a shot if the reviews are still good at launch.
