IGN and 
Dragon 
Age 
Veilguard 
Review - for the second 
time?
New review: - https://archive.ph/fLWxN
Old review: - https://archive.ph/CWrVr
The overall result is that Dragon Age: The Veilguard isn't the golden era BioWare game that I had hoped it would be. Torn between continuing its traditional role-playing legacy and starting afresh as a modern action RPG, the end result is an awkward sequel trapped in a cage made of reboot ideas.
even IGN has given up defending it
Tangental 
:
The old reviewer (https://archive.ph/hk3aF):
+ 
+ a "freelance writer" aka worthless
The new one (https://archive.ph/kmjNm):
+ 
+ "UK News and Features Editor" aka someone with actual relevancy
Now I have 
but my gut is that they fricked up so bad they needed to have the 
big guy come out and save IGN's reputation by not just sucking ea's peepee

Len Hafer (or TJ Hafer before they

Oh nevermind, the hormones fried her brain. The worst part about seeing someone you're a fan of transition is that 90% of their content becomes culture war bullshit.

Not to me, the HRT epidemic on the geek/anime/vidya/neurodivergent community has been staggeringly devastating, years ago I stumbled upon a pretty neat niche youtube channel which compared different anime dubs, in an neurodivergentally special manner - the
actually used the original VHS tapes of the releases and an old TV set to show their differences like how people watched them 30 years ago! 
But then..... the VHS tranime dub videos suddenly stopped..... and then.... "Yuri comic dubs" started popping in, the original point of the channel was no more, the very unique and interesting appeal of the channel was replaced by low-effort manga of cute UwU lesbians doing cute UwU lesbian things being dubbed by a masculine neurodivergent voice, you see where this is going?
, you guessed it - the guy eventually 
ed out, and did a video on zxis HRT progress, he even uploaded an unironic "egg hatched" comic

folkx the opinions went downhill to the point where I haven't talked to her in a few years.
