Don't care. if I was in charge I would enable freedom of speech on the internet. In any public forum, your freedom of speech would be protected. If companies want privacy and censored discussion, then they would have to make the forum private and only viewable by those who sacrifice their rights. The way it is right now, a company like Bioware can choose to remove posts that don't fit their agenda, essentially making their forum appear one sided. That is wrong IMO. Long live America, down with North Korea and Nazi style censorship of freedom of speech. I believe Voat is on the right track.

Censorship, denial of freedom of speech. I don't hate anyone, but I will call Bioware out when they take politically correct bull**** too far, to the point where it hurts a game instead of making it better. I don't fear labeling tactics, LGBT community can come at me and say whatever they want. I will never do anything to take away your right to speak your mind. http://www.twitter.com/luzariuslive http://www.twitch.tv/luzarius http://www.facebook.com/luzariuslive You're welcome to send me death threats, harass me, torture me, beat me to near death, I'll laugh at you. https://youtu.be/Ve5XWCd8EFs?t=25 I'm voting for any republican in 2016.

I was going to argue against this, but there are too many dead beat straight couples out there who abandon their kids or make horrible parents. Because of them, I can't formulate a proper argument. I will say this though. I was fortunate enough to have a mom and a dad who loved me and stayed together for lfie. I believe that having your biological mom (female) and biological dad (male) is the best way to be raised if you're lucky enough to have strong parents like that. The reality is not everyone is going to be fortunate like me, if a same sex couple can give this kind of love and care to child out there who needs it, then so be it. I believe marriage should be between a man(real) and woman(real) who want to come together to make and raise a child proper for the betterment of society. But you know what? The world isn't a perfect place, so I guess for now I'm neutral on the issue. Grats on the victory, just watch out for the tax laws, make sure marriage is what you want because I've seen friends go through a divorce, IT SUCKS and it's expensive. You can't just walk away, lol.

They made Cassandra Pentaghast look like a man. We have to protect beautiful women from the sex negative feminists and the sex negative LGBT's. Vote for ANY republican in 2016!

You bring up an interesting topic. Would Witcher 3 still sell as well if it completely removed any trace of sexual appeal? What do you guys think? Also, you have an excellent username! Leandra & Eleanor Cousland FTW

Oh god this again? ... Oh, wait nevermind.

Metacritic Witcher 3: 94 Dragon Age Origins: 91 Pillars of Eternity: 90 Dragon Age Inquisition: 85 Dragon Age 2: 82 Games in green were developed with heart and soul.

I had no idea there was a DAI thread. How did you guys bring yourself to look at Cassandra's man face for more than ten seconds without losing your mind? I was such a huge dragon age fan that I purposely made sure not to watch any trailers or look at any screenshots for inquisition. I'll never forget that night when I played DAI for the first time. When I saw Cassandra's face, i was so confused. Her face literally broke immersion and I just sat there looking at her face from all angles trying to make sense of it. Sadly, I could not. Then I discovered the next romance option, Josephine. Unfortunately she looks ugly as hell. I could not stop looking at her nose when she spoke. So then I thought okay, we'll romance Leliana, turns out you can't. Morrigan same deal. No worries, let's see how the other companions fair. Sera, can't romance her as straight male, but even if she was romance-able I still wouldn't. Her face looks like Gollum. Okay Vivienne, nice pretty face, get some chocolate action you know? Then she takes off her helmet. DUDE. SHE IS BALD MAN, WTF? ...... Wtf happened? So many of the women have these weird shaved heads.

I wonder if some entity forced him to step down because he is straight and instead they want to replace him with a militant lgbt or feminist that will soon make obsidian games super politically correct where attractive women are no longer allowed.

You my friend are in luck. Ranger is one of the best classes especially for POTD on Trial of Iron. here is a link to the build with lots of screenshots - http://forums.obsidian.net/topic/78315-ranger-build-path-of-the-damned-trial-of-iron-81-dmg-crit-at-level-4/

One american raised, educated worker is worth about two-three techies from India. You get what you pay for. Before someone calls me racist. One indian-american raised person is worth about two-three techies who were born and raised in India. You get what you pay for. This exactly, I've seen it happen many times. I'm not politically savvy, but I think you can report your dislike of H1B visa workers replacing hard working americans by telling your congressman. http://www.house.gov/representatives/find/ Then enter your zip code, you may need to enter the+4 zip code extension as well.

I think females in video games should stay highly sexualized, but the game should also offer highly sexualized males for the ladies. I understand that some games may demand a high level of realism, aka realistic looking people, especially if set in a modern city like setting, but most of the time going with a supermodel is the way to go in fantastical games. The hotter the better. I want to see something that captures my imagination. Spartacus Blood and Sand is a good example of a series that offers something for the guys, gals and the gays, hence everyone is happy. I don't like how the Dragon Age Team writers censored the Dragon Age series by removing brothels, removing sexualized npc's, giving a lot of the women bizarre shaved heads and making the only two romance options for straight male gamers ugly as hell in which one looks like a man. We need more GTA, more Witcher, more Mortal Kombat X, more violence, more sex with little to no censorship. I like the dark theme that is present in Pillars of Eternity and wouldn't mind if it was darker and more explicit. I don't say these things lightly, I just like to be shocked with thought provoking content. I also think the LGBT & feminist agendas are getting out of hand, it completely destroyed Dragon Age Inquisition and I hope it doesn't infect other games. Does this mean I don't want to see gay charactes in games? NO, it just means that if you're going to make content for straight males, make sure a LGBT or feminist isn't in charge of the decision making for that specific content. Makes sense right? If an RPG game comes out based on African culture, I'm not going to expect them to include a white person just to be politically correct.

Since Bioware chose to make Cassandra Pentaghast look like a man and toss a transgender into the game for no good reason, I'm voting for any republican in 2016.

Please add to your survey that as a straight male gamer, I'm upset that Bioware made Cassandra Pentaghast look like a man and that Jospehine looks hideous. Also add that the women in Skyrim & Witcher 3 look stunning.

Aww, I loved Witcher one's sex cards, it just reminded me of things that us guys do in RL. I thought it was clever.

It's Bioware's game and they should make it how they want to. Supporting artistic freedom means being ok with decisions made by developers, even if you don't like them. Personally I don't care because I play RPGs to kill stuff and not to simulate a sex life. Given your butthurt over no waifu, I don't think you have a clear head. This site may be able to help some of the frustration you have: http://www.eharmony.com/ GG is about how ****ty games journalism is and you're using reviews derived from games journalism to support your argument that attractive women result in better games. Do you have a single fact to back that up? Because that's a /pol/-tier conspiracy theory right there. Before I continue debating wtih you. Have you played DAO & DA2? If you haven't then we're going to continue being on a completely different wave length, it would be pointless to debate with you, if you haven't play the Dragon Age series. Let me at least try then. Scoring a 90+ on metacritic means different game reviewers from across the world have agreed that this game is solid and worth playing. Are you trying to tell me that when a game scores 90+ on metacritic that is has no value? You are also implying that I want some kind of dating simulator from DAI? When I watch hollywood movies with romance, does that mean I'm looking for some kind of dating simulator in that movie? Like I said, if you didn't enjoy DAO & DA2 we're gonna be on a different wave length. As for objective evidence proving that LGBT & feminist have purposely made cassandra & josephine horribly ugly & mannish, I have none, but what do you expect when a writing team is made up of LGBT & militant feminists? Dragon Age Origins & Dragon Age 2 have always had attractive female romance options for straight male gamers, so naturally I'd expect the same in the third installment, not a bait and switch. In a game with so much politically correct BS, it's no surprise that the straight male romance options would be affected by the LGBT & Feminist agenda in some way. If I were to design a female as a romance option for straight male gamers, I would never in a million years model her as a man. I have no problem with any of the LGBT companions in the DA series. That was never the issue.

*sigh* Let me help you out here. You are correct, EA/Bioware wanted to sell as many copies as Skyrim. How do I know that? Because Bioware themselves acknowledged they wanted to be more like Skyrim in countless posts they've made. Skyrim sold roughly 20 million copies over it's lifespan. If a company doesn't release sales figures it means the product didn't meet expectations. By not meeting expectations it means they invested a lot of money without the projected return. Did they turn a profit? Sure, but did they meet their goal? No. Questions like this arise: did-dragon-age-inquisitions-lgbt-characters-impact-games-sales By saying that it means: * You like transgenders in gaming * You enjoy seeing women with shaved heads and you find it very immersive. * You approve of censorship in the form of removing brothels & sexual npc's like desire demons when they were present in DAO & DA2. Is this correct? I agree with this. Unlike you, I'm looking at what you type with a clear head. You lost me here. It's not about that. It's about LGBT & feminists purposely pissing of straight people, they did it on purpose. There is no other logical reason than personal revenge. I don't say this lightly. If you want to see examples of women drawn or designed properly, look at Calisca in POE or the women in Witcher 3.

If a woman works hard, give her equal pay, but never let anyone suppress your basic instinctual nature to show dominance over a woman.

In regards to sales, you're comparing a game that's in its third installment and on the consoles vs a game that is only on PC and in it's first installment. Also, if Inquisition was a success sales wise, why doesn't EA share their sales figures for DAI? Hmmm? Most likely due to DAI failing to meet expectations.

Did LGBT affect dragon age inquisition sales? Yes, I've bought every bioware game to date, but Inquisition is the first Bioware game I got a refund for. Too much LGBT and far too much feminism. Examples: - Too much shaved heads on women, as if Orlesian women don't value their hair, ridiculous. - Cassandra Pentaghast made to look like a transgender, a man trying to be woman. Her original concept art does look feminine however. - Josephine hit hard with the ugly stick, little effort put into her 3d model, 3d modeling amateur obviously designed josephine. - No brothels. - No sexualized NPC's like desire demons. LGBT did affect Inquisition sales by alienating me, one of the most hardcore fans of the DA universe. Let's compare Dragon Age Inquisition to Spartacus Blood and Sand. In this TV series all sexuality are represented. If you notice, the straight and bisexual women are drop dead gorgeous and stunning. When you give the straight people eye candy, they're not gonna care if there is LGBT content as well. But when you remove the beautiful females from the game, a straight gamer is going to feel surrounded by the LGBT & feminist concepts, hence why I got a refund for Inquisition. Making Inquisition super feminist and super gay did affect sales, I know many families who didn't let their teens play Inquisition, but they did let them play Skyrim & Witcher. Witcher 3 gets my stamp of approval. The $59.99 I got refunded from Inquisition I used to purchase Pillars of Eternity and the left over to help with purchase of Witcher 3 and I'm loving every second of it. Witcher 3 Metacritic 93 Pillars of Eternity Metacritic 90 Dragon Age Inquisition 85 Long live Obsidian & CDProjectRED, rejoice for Bioware is dead.

I think Path of the damned on Trial of Iron delivers a spectular experience. If I die, it's due to my own incompetence and not the game's fault. The only fight that I can think of that is imbalanced is the bear cave in the start of the game. If you go there solo as a level 1, you're gonna have a bad time no matter what difficulty you are on, in other words YOU GONNA DIE NO MATTER WHAT. When I first played Pillars it was on normal difficulty, trial of iron. That bear cave demoralized the hell out of me, but later I found out it was an isolated incident. Also, cassandra pentaghast looks like a man god damn it.

Has #gamergate spoken out over the censorship of Dragon Age Inquisition? - removal of brothel - removal of sexualized desire demons - manification and uglification of straight male romance options - ugly stick all the women in the game except for morrigan, leliana & isabela - removal of hot boob plate armor

Guys, I'm just pissed over what Bioware did with Inquisition and I'm blaming LGBT & feminists. This is all their fault. Now when I see any talk of gay related topics, I just want to rebel against it and be a total ****. I'm worried that gay people will try to exact their revenge on straight people for years of oppression. There has to be some resistance against LGBT or the future of gaming will turn into bald women with shaved heads and women that look like men. LGBT and feminists are teaming up to get revenge on us straight males, it's a conspiracy. .... *sigh* ... I still can't believe Bioware made Cassandra Pentaghast look like a man. I'm still shocked. Dragon Age was my favorite series. She looked fine in Dragon Age 2. I just can't bring myself to play Inquisition knowing I have to look at Christopher Pentaghasts face a majority of the time. It's like this constant reminder that the LGBT working for Bioware are getting the last laugh against straight men. I wonder if there is a helmet that can be equipped on her that NEVER gets removed, even during cutscenes, that might work. I was thinking of trying to make a mod that puts a paper bag over her head, then on the front of the bag is a picture of a hot woman.

The consensus seems to be: - Stay behind tank with increased reach weapon. - Only engage enemies that are disabled and can't hit back. In other words the rogue seems far too risky for Path of the Damned, Trial of Iron unless you just keep him back the whole time. In that case, why not use a ranger and get an extra bear companion as an off tank? I just don't see why anyone would pick rogue over ranger on POTD, TOI.

Just curious. - Shouldn't dagger be slash and pierce? - If rapier is designed for piercing and not slashing, wouldn't it do more piercing damage than a dagger since it's purpose is to thrust (pierce). Wouldn't this make more sense? Dagger - Slash/Pierce - Accurate - Dmg: 9-13 Rapier - Pierce - Accurate - Dmg: 10-14 It's okay to be geeky on Monday, but not Friday.
