We’re looking around the gaming world with a new sense of hope. Dragon Age: The Veilguard is falling off a cliff as all the chatter is about Stellar Blade. That is a healthy sign for gaming. Am I rooting for so-called ‘woke’ games like Dragon Age to fail? Yup. You bet. I don’t want my fantasy game to be infected with modern politics. And if game developers are too dumb to make a new game that reflects the politics they want to inject? Then they deserve to fail. The need to fail.
Don’t take a beloved property and ruin it. Make your own new game and have all the politics and messaging you want! Have a blast! I wish you nothing but the best. Until then, I will take great delight in headlines that announce more people are playing Baldur’s Gate than Dragon Age.
“Dragon Age Veilguard made more people start playing BG3 on Steam again”
And I’ll highlight all the great insight into Stellar Blade. Including the Stellar Blade – NieR: Automata crossover DLC. We will continue to celebrate the finer things in gaming and failure of those who look to corrupt it. Thank you very much.
