Dragon Age: The Veilguard is WORSE Than We Thought...

FAILguard: A Woke DEI Mess Worse Than Feared

The upcoming game Dragon Age: The Veilguard has been stirring up controversy among fans long before its release. Recent info leaked from a QA Tester interview and my gawd this is sounding horrendous...


Shoutout to the Nuhre YouTube channel confirming our fears - that the game is even worse than we imagined. According to the interview, Veilguard is drowning in a mess of divisive DEI (diversity, equity, inclusion) themes, alienating fans with immersion-breaking choices and narrative decisions that detract from what could have been an engaging RPG experience.



Pronouns in Bio(Ware)

One of the first complaints brought up by the playtester is how Veilguard forces pronouns front and center, breaking the immersion for many players. The Qunari companion, for example, introduces themselves in a jarringly modern way, saying, and I'm not making this up:

“I identify myself as non-binary"

Pulling you completely out of the fantasy world that Veilguard was supposed to create.
