Dragon Age: Why We Can't Have Nice Things

Listened to a news story about gayguard on npr just now and 90% of the interview was the producers talking about their mental illnesses and how they added those mental illnesses into the game. Just listening to the tranny talk made my skin crawl.

Lmao it’s hard to imagine some of you are actually going to pay money for this shit.

You’d be surprised about how much stuff they broadcast that goes against left leaning norms. Not saying that slant doesn’t exist in it, but in the past month I listened to a researcher providing evidence that COVID was leaked from a virology lab in China due to insufficient safeguards for a novel virus and Coleman Hughes (I think?) talking about how many DEI efforts basically go too far and effectively become racist unto themselves (he called it Neo Racism)

There is a cool program called Hidden Brain on Saturday that also discusses research involving the human mind - the one focusing on extremism and how MRI showed how it literally changes the brain was interesting (guy was researching terrorists originally)

I mean, he is a Furry, self admitted. Its easier to ask what is NOT wrong with him.

Pretty sure he's said he's a therian, which is ironic considering the forum name. Dunno if he was Furry Crusader and it got shortened in one of the moves or if that was someone else.

Basically he leans more heavily into mental illness rather than degeneracy.

I just want to take a moment to tell the few of you pearl-clutching skeptics whom said that we were overreacting about DA -- to suck my long, girthy white cock.

One of the project leads is a male to female trannie. I'm not even remotely surprised how this game ended up.

DAI sold a lot…..

But not in its first 90 days IIRC. The game blew up well after launch, during game of the year releases and cheap sales.

I don’t know anyone who bought it at release but lots of people who played in in 2018-2020 after paying 10 bucks for it.

notice they tour the 12 million copies sold with no metrics on revenue or DLc sales.

End of the day there is no way this makes a profit for the company. Giant dev teams corporate bloat, massive or campaigns cost more than ever. The only AAA games that make money are the very best sellers

What's going to tank worse, this or the African samurai simulator?

You might be underestimating how many ppl will buy the game simply due to nostalgia.

The break even point for $100 million AAA game is ~3 million in basic box sales. That's not a particularly high bar for a good, but not great game, but almost every studio has two major problems:

1. Most aren't making good games. 85% of AAA players are men. Most men don't want to play games with a "boss bitch" lead. Particularly not a lesbian nog, boss bitch. Black women have a negative mass market value. It is what it is. Furthermore, I'm not going to beat the dead horse, but we also don't want alphabet mafia, communist/marxist, colonist-apologist, etc. social issues in games that couldn't be any further removed from Earth 2024. Even in games set in the modern era, fuck your activism and that includes conservativism. None of it belongs in games.

2. I've said it before, but studios are carrying a HUGE amount of employee dead weight. Ubisoft is a prime example of this. They employ thousands of people, but still have to contract competent white men at ridiculously inflated rates to finish games. I suspect that most studios could cut a full third of their staff and it would have ZERO impact on production. In fact, dumping the theys, zers, shaniquas, and the rest of the completely useless DEI vampires would almost guarantee an improvement in production.

Suddenly, your $100 million game is now $60 million and the odds you stay afloat to make another game go up exponentially.

One does not simply ignore the lack of Denuvo!
