Once g*mers no longer have the sweet nectar of the video games, they will be forced to go outside and become radicalized foot soldiers.

The reaction to this game is all over the place. Last I've seen Asmongold played it and actually thought it was decent other than the dialogue. And redditors at /r/dragonage are in complete meltdown about how shit this game is.
It might be a matter of expectations. Chuds fully expect the game to be woke going in. They have no hopes for the writing, but find themselves pleasantly surprised by the other aspects (if they actually play it).
Bioware nerds are hoping for a "return to form" masterpiece and set their expectations high, but find that the writing is actually kind of childish.
I made a comment yesterday speculating that Bioware would probably turn a profit based on player numbers translating into approximate sales, but not by a comfortable margin. After hearing a little more about development costs ranging from $80 - $150 million (before advertisements as well), I have doubts that they'll even reach that. For an AA game these numbers would be pretty good, but for a AAA studio, they need to sell a lot more copies to recoup development costs.
This definitely isn't another Concord tier flop, but I wouldn't bet on the game being a commercial success just yet either.
Na this game is a flop. It would have to move 3 to 4 million units at least to even break even if it held a budget similar to the other 200M games that have come out this year with a similar development time (and that's without steam taking it's cut).
But I did mean it when I said I would concede if it wasn't an undisputed flop. The fact we're crunching numbers is enough for me to just dead it.
My bf continues to enjoy the game. I asked him today about the 's storyline and I ended up accidentally spoiling that they would be a companion. I assumed they would be there from the beginning.
Anyway, he's still not phased by the menace (he does not like s) so we will see when he gets to the unavoidable cringe scenes. Though, at this point I really wonder if they are unskippable. Like I said in my original post, he tends to skip dialogue. Like a true Chad tbh.
He finally got to the last night. Today he got to the cringe gender identity scene that went viral. He skipped past it all and looked at me and said "I just passed the scene. I thought it was unskippable? "
He still enjoys the game, doesn't really recognize any shit in it. At least he hadn't said anything to me and he likes to b-word about s as much as the next chud lmao.
At the end of the day it's serviceable content presented as a sequel to a beloved franchise
It had 70,000 players yesterday and it has 70,000 players today and that feels about right. Sure, the writing is trash, and the art dependent on that writing is trash, and the game mechanics are lackluster — but it's pretty, it's a sequel to dragonslop, and you can maybe squeeze a boob in it, so g*mers are gonna have a middling turnout.
Anyone that was expecting it to be concord is nutty and only focusing on what gets their wingcuck engine spinning

Its a complete betrayal if you're a fan of dragon age/good writing, but it's not like unplayable or anything like that.
I guess if u like God of war style games and want a cozy adventure with gay r-slur party members, it might be up your alley.

Avarage american reads at kindegarden level.
Game seems to spoonfeed everything to you. Even having pop ups how to feel. Neurodivergent burgers probably love this.
But someone who has read a book. Will probably find this too childish and stupid.
