They didn't have the pronouns in the gameplay footage from august

I guess some of them got mad over veilguard getting shat on and decided to stick it to the chuds
Obsidian turned wokeness down sadly, seeing BioWare’s disaster with troon directing Veilguard. I’d prefer both of them to burn.

Nah, instead you get to be matchmaker for gay asexual womyn. Not woke at all, eh?))
At the very least you can blow her crush's brains out with a shotgun mid-date, then pass a speech check to keep Parvati around which is literally the only fun thing you can do in the entire OW.

Does Obsidian and Bioware dying from self-inflicted wounds means Brian Fargo will have the last laugh? Clockwork Revolution might still be salvaged if they learn from their peers' mistakes.

It won't match Veil guard pozziness. I doubt there will be a creature that orders you to do push up for not living their deviant fantasy. The game has options were you can be asshole and antagonistic to companions.

It seems people are clutching at straws regarding this game.

How would you know? Until veilguard released, no one actually thought the push up thing would be in-game.

Considering what obsidian devs are saying publicly, I would expect the worse and hope for the best.

There are two issues as I see it. One is the presence of woke nonsense in the game. The other is the open antagonistic nature of the game devs admitting it is there to piss off the 'chuds'.

People might be willing to tolerate varying degrees of the first problem. Not both though. Not for a game we all know will be mid and has no aspirations for more than that either.

This feels like a giant publicity stunt. I was 30% willing to play Avowed, but now the bar sits on 0%. Thanks, Matt Hensen.
