Taash was fine. They were portrayed very much like a young teenager though when they appeared to be in their 40s which made their story seem strange. It reads very much🌠 as a coming of age narrative, but doesn’t work with a character that appears fully grown.

Taash’s inclusion and the absolute wave of far right h🌄ate the game got because of the inclusion of a non-binary character is definitely why the game fai✅led. It was review bombed by political activists.

Also, I’m not sure how being non-binary is PC. Given how the establishment and most 🗹people seem to be extremely offended by the existence of non-binary people, it’s quite the opposite. I can’t think of anything more politically incorrect than being non-binary. It seems to offend everyone.

And♍ sadly, it is the artists who suffer. The company itself doesn’t. They threw the writers and the developers under the bus, and of course angry consumers blame minorities instead of the company who ru꧑shed the game like crazy.

@LoreMasterFlex there’s no such thing. A non-straight, non-cis, non-male person being ༺in a video game isn’t “gender politics”. It’sಞ straight up delusion to think that minorities existing in media is political.

I was disappointed to hear that there would be no DLC. I happened to really like Veilguard a lot (although⛦ I admit I was new to the franchise and had no knowledge whatsoever of past games, so can’t speak on whether Veilguard treated pre-established lore well). The hate the game got was absolutely undeserved in my opinion, ﷽and 99% of it was bigoted screeching about Taash, and not any criticism of the actual gameplay or writing or story.
