J. R. R. Tolkien would love this game

[FOX ϟ 🦊]

If you are a Tolkien fan, you will have a blast with this game

In addition to the correct use of pronouns, as they/them, their/theirs, this game constantly pairs Tolkien-style proper nouns like "Evanuris" with, as an example, further context that these are the ancient elven gods, at least early on.

I think it's a game that Tolkien would be proud of!

JRR was non-binary i read on twitter

[oootttoooo]

Of course He will like the game. It's a 2024 game and he is a guy born 100 years a ago. He will go crazy when he realize he can control those little people in a box.

I don't care what they tell you in school. J.R.R Tolkien was black.

[Elvi]

Ressurected Tolkien would get a heartattack and die after seeing Rings of Power, he would not make it to this game.

So, I'm not sure that J.R.R would play DA:V with joy...

First Dragon age game?

Good job DA2 is not being released now the pro immigrant rhetoric of thay game would get right wing USA into a proper state.

The favt the original Dragon Age games are made by LBGT and LBGT friendly game developers kind of does speak to evil cannot create, as we see on these forums the uncreative are the ones crying about woke games.

If the anti woke could make there own games they would not need to cry about games franchises that have always been progressive - so tell me why is it the anti woke are not making games... something about evil if I recall.

J.R. R Tolkien was a little of a con-man as he took inspire from others and was trying persuade the public that he wasn't copy others work as example : Mio, My son

That is why he had strong opinions about Disney since he knew he was self a con-man.

People can't tell the difference between an allegory and an application was him, J. R. R Tolkien trying keep his back safe.

[The.Spaz.]

Tolkien is rolling in his grave so hard he is about to make electromagnetic waves enough to change poles about now.

[talemore]

As well taking credits by making others folklore into his own.

The goal of him stealing others culture was that he found UK to have very little and he was part of the old view of the world.

J. R. R Tolkien would be sad to see what has happened to UK today and he would likely wish half of Africa being enslaved to make UK great britain again.

You have no idea who these people were since the culture they lived in is in the past that you would see him today as a right extreme.

Wait, Dragon Age has always been infused with its creator's political and social beliefs. Where have you been?

DAO: A setting where magic is real but Gods might not. The treatment of Elves as property even if they aren't technically enslaved still. How a plague has risen up and brought literal monsters with it and political leaders are just like...gonna pretend its not here.

DAII: The acceptance of immigration and refugees, the interplay between oppressor and oppressed. A religious war, complete with terrorists, propaganda, and intrigue. Also the interplay between slavery and religion.

DAI: The separation of church and state. Being high on your own supply turning you into a monster. How governments handle a natural disaster. The exceptions to the rules that get made for people in power. Literal conversion therapy done with blood magic.

the thing is that a lot of people are just, like, stupid?

they played those games and all that went in one ear and out the other, they dont remember the themes of the story, they dont remember the world building, they dont remember anything besides the big set pieces pretty much

i know media illiteracy is an over used term but it really applies here

also ya know, stuff regarding gender and sexuality has been present and pretty in your face(unless you just skip every conversation you can) since Origins in 2009

No need to tell about this whatever.

Tolkien would have burnt the script if he knew Peter Jacksons films would be out.

He was notorious for hating any adaptation.
The asked his grandson about the Jackson films and he just stated "my grandfather would have hated them".

He believes that his grandfather may have been more sympathetic to amazon because they are doing a story inspired by Tolkien rather than adapting Tolkiens work.

What I find funny is the Tolkien scholars dislike primes version for very different reasons. They think that the character of Galadriel is too feminine amd not nearly masculine enough. Whilst most people think the opposite.

They quote talking that Galadriel was known as man-maiden and was meant to be tall and strong.

do you think "sex stuff" is the main theme of veilguard? do you think the threat of the veil and the elvanuri is being dealt with via "sex stuff"? do you the veil guard is being assembled for "sex stuff"? or maybe, just maybe, chuds have fed you a few minutes of out of context clips to rile you up for a game that prolly takes dozens and dozens of hours

Origins was about how to fight the Evil of the Dark Spawns and also the inner Evil of the humankind. How YOU led a team of heroes to save this messed world..
