Fantastic, thanks for sharing that.
Just read that stilted corporate-speak.
This is fascinating. I hadn’t expected them to sound like financial analysts who were forced to talk about video games, with this po-faced scripted ‘suit-speak’.
I love the analyst’s terse ‘great, thank you’ response to the CEO’s meandering bluster about Veilguard. I really have to wonder if they already know what’s up - that’s a very clipped response to such an impassioned speech.
To me they were testing this guy to see if he’d try and lie through his teeth about the whole thing. And that damning brief reply was a ‘yeah, he’s a spoofer as predicted - please prepare the termination of employment email so we have it ready-to-go in a few weeks: we need to move fast to get back to profitability’.
This is the silliest thing you could defend. Lot of people who follow the guy might not even agree with him on everything but hey, let's pre-ban the person anyway. How scared must they be of criticism to descend this low? It speaks loud for itself. Yep yep.
The only thing ‘based AF’ is Steam mods unlocking this thread - a double-victory for sanity and freedom of speech, after both an excessive lock and a ban, both overturned.
And you’ve a funny notion of what the word ‘insulting’ means, if that’s your translation of calling the game’s purple aesthetic ‘nasty’. Which it is.
You cannot censor design critique of a game, nor can you censor someone outright saying the game is thrash. That’s not ‘insulting’ to the devs, as it is a critique of a product/art.
Caring about a ban and caring about sharing information about an unscrupulous company are two different things mate. I was aiming for the latter.
The point of the thread went sailing over your head, didn’t it? How many times did I clarify I don’t care about the ban? This is an information piece - I am sharing the fact that this developer is too thin-skinned to handle even mild criticism of the game.
The perma-ban over such tepid criticism is indicative of someone who hasn’t the mental maturity or fortitude to even be told their cooking isn’t great.
I’m highlighting the comedy of overreacting like this, from a supposedly ‘professional’ company who are in the business of putting out products no one is obliged to like.
All art is subject to loathing and derision. Throw a temper tantrum about it and ‘banish’ those who aren’t singing its praises deserves to be called out for the childishness that it is.
If nothing else, the ban and lock reversals of this thread have proven that Steam is not into creating a pseudo-reddit echo chamber, or white-washed ‘safe space’ where no one can voice a negative opinion.
Some people on these forums seem to be calling for that kind of toothless, braindead world parodied in Demolition Man, where you’re fined for cursing, and everyone in society has become a mollycoddled sheep.
Pre-banning? How did Bioware get a list of all the people to ban them?
The fact that you're complaining about being banned from a video game forum for a game you don't like and will never play suggests we're half way there already.
It was a problem before. It made me want to vomit. That is why I didn't play those games for very long or at all.
You must have missed the memo where Bioware took all of Asmongold's followers on reddit and pre-banned them. As in, even if they'd never wrote a single word on their subreddit, they were pre-banned because they followed Asmongold.
I don't follow Asmongold or care for what the dude says, but it is clearly nuts.
Must be the 10th time I've clarified this. There's even a comment above yours that expresses my stance.
I don't care about the ban - hence, no complaint about that.
I am highlighting the absurdity of it over absolute peanuts.
Your analogy makes absolutely no sense btw. Demolition Man parodied a world where no one can 'complain' about anything. Because everywhere is a contrived 'safe space' - aka a reddit.
Cheers mate

Now I know these are different reviewers at IGN, but I wonder if we'll start to see more gaming journalists slowly turn on this game now that it's quite clear it's going to under-perform and has massive issues not even related to the woke content that many players have taken issue with. If anything, the controversy over wokeness acted as a smoke screen to hide very legitimate criticism about how bad the writing and story choices were.
Tell your friends to do that instead of complaining on bioware's game forums where they can ban anyone they don't like.
I’d read that earlier and was going to quote it.
Yeah, ‘interesting’ for sure.
One of the comments was talking about IGN trying to go back to ‘balanced’ journalism because their view-counts (aka income) plummeted over the Failguard shilling.
I’m not too sure. That shill-article must be one of their highest successes in terms of traffic and engagement, so as ‘bait’ it’s a stroke of genius, in a sense.
The new article is still pulling punches and is not an interesting criticism overall, IMO. The games industry desperately needs a no-holes-barred AA Gill. But either way, it at least on the surface looks like it’s written by someone with a modicum of professionalism.
Yeah, the woke is merely cack-handed. Even the enthusiasts can’t defend the writing, it’s that bad.
I think a bigger warning sign of what’s ahead is Larian’s publishing director recently tweeting ‘I would greatly appreciate it if ya’ll visionless reactionaries stopped laying off my friends and figured out your P&L’.
This guy was shilling hard for Veilguard prior to its release - ‘it’s giga-brain genius’, among other suspect gush.
I think the ‘clipping’ has already begun at Bioware, and we’ll find out soon enough regarding the details.
You’d think Andromeda, Anthem and Velguard would equal ‘three strikes and you’re out’.
But IMO, EA will let what’s left of Bioware go ahead with ME5, whose team apparently employs a number of the Veilguard writers.
I’m expecting the game to be bad, but not Veilguard-bad. It’ll definitely be woked-up to the nine hells, if less bullish about it after the Veilguard backlash.
what were you hoping would happen?
That's the "tolerant" left for ya. This claim of tolerance, like 95% of their deluded self image, is of course a blatant lie, because they are fragile as ♥♥♥♥ and everything needs to be made into a "safe space". Which means all kinds of things must be excluded, in order to not hurt their feefees and threaten their extremely unstable block tower of lies.
Reddit is full of cancel-bots which will autoban you from groups if you are a member of some other group which they do not like. And of course none of the wokies will realize how extreme this is and how clearly it exposes them for what they really are.
