@@wampyrelli Bro if that true the writer of this game is a genius, the writer think cooking is just for women although it is basic skill everyone should have
xDDDD So you basically had something that look like a half demon which start talk with her mother by saying "i'm nonbinary"? Damn, I miss I not talk with my players as NPC when I was a game master before. And her mother sound very reasonable and ask good questions, propably something you should expect from well manered demon looking thing. But all fall the moment when she start to talk some crap, more I expected some "kill for Khorne and not talk some bullcrap".
Yeah, the irrational anger is very realistic from my experience. I used to work with a non binary person, and she would get offended whenever someone referred to her as "she" or "her" even though biologically it was pretty obvious were female.
The mom was just trying to figure out what was going on. She asked some questions but she was yelled at for not immediately accepting what she didn't understand.
I wished I had Tash mother, mine wasn't even close if we're talking about reasonable people, but I guess this self-inserted character was meant to be sth else, as we should be on her side in this rather than support her mother.
I saw someone post a vid showing that if you don’t have a strong enough bond with her and choose her to go defend something at one point she legit gets one tap dumpstered by some huge burly man in one of the climax battles.
It actually means "Through struggle, we find purpose." Sten explains that in some of his hidden dialogue in Origins. So this interaction spits in the proverbial face of the interesting complexities of the Qunari because Weekes (the writer of Taash and the guy bastardized the Qunari in Inquisition), Busch (the trans queerosexual gendermancer that was put charge of Veilguard), and the voice actress of Taash (who not-so coincidentally identifies as non-binary) had to make this a vehicle for their collective trauma dump
I was about to convince my wife to play this today because she spent 70$ on it, but holy shit, I think we will do a refund and do a 4th run of BG3 with her instead lol
@@BloodDracolich Agreed. The fact that you can put a penis on your female character and a vagina on your male one and use they/them pronouns is 🤮. But at least it's just kept to that and they focus on story and character development first and foremost.
To think that Dragonage 2, as flawed as it is, represented the Qunari perfectly and had the best designs. Now it’s just a frigate wide forehead with horns.
Who approved this, thinking it will legitimately help them sell more games. This is ridiculous. Ruining games to pander to a fraction of the population. They deserve everything they get from this.
I'm actually glad you brought this up. Because Binary as a word was created in the 1440s. Then gained new definitions over the years, like 1970s and 1990s. Just look at the year differences between the 1440s and 1970-1990s. Dragon age was medieval. Words like binary probably never existed. But it rootly means 'Two of Two' They could have just gone with the Qun word, as spoken in the initial outburst of none acceptance. Qunari have been drilled over this and it's been seen that Tal-Vashoth still show sone respect for their upbringing. Mind you Tal-Vashoth are Undesirables in the Qunari culture. It also guess to say while they do accept members of the Qun who identify as... different? They also barely tolerate them. The Qunari live for the collective- not the individual. Tash being who she is, it's whybthey hate other cultures. The Qunari have also been shown to have the right responses through each game's crisis: The Blight in Origins. The Mage problem in DA2. The state of Thedas in Inquisition. Draconian. But they deal with the issue front and center.
What's weird in alll of this scene too is: remove the cosplay and the cosmetics, and this scene is 2024 in a kitchen. Just looks so surrreal to see this in a fantasy game. The disposition, the 'dining room' it reeks of 21st centurism.
To be fair this is intentional. Minrathous, the Imperium, and many areas in Northern Thedas in lore are said to be more technologically advanced than southern Thedas (where we spend the majority of the previous three games). But to see this game use terminology no different than modern slang to promote self-destructive behavior is pretty cringe.
At it's core, it's a vacuous & pretentious game with no soul. How anyone can get immersed in a empty calorie experience is completely beyond me. This is the poor foundation of most AAA games today, not just a waste of money, but of time itself, life is too short for this trite trash.
@@lastnamefirstname850Dunno about that, though in this case, it's objectively bad for sure. Celeste was progressive too and it's a great game, though that game used it's progressive elements tactfully, and this one has the subtlety of a brick coming through your window.
This is not progressive, it's regressing into the stereotypical male/female roles as this non-binary/transgender ideology is based in gender stereotypes. "If I like both the color pink and blue I must be non-binary. If I 'm a boy and like pink, I must be a girl." Of course this is not just about color, but so much more, but I just tried to explain it as simple as I could.
Fantasy has always mirrored modern-day politics, but you have to do it in a way that feels natural to that universe. Characters can't just start saying modern terminology like "non-binary" or "queer". You can just make up new words and mean the exact same thing so it feels less jarring. It's like somebody in a fantasy setting "rizz" or "eco-friendly", it just sounds weird for them to be using such recent and modern language.
I never played DA games but I think someone said that fitting terminology already existed, if true it would be doubly awful if they just ignored that because they are completely unable to paraphrase modern issues into a fantasy setting
@@juice6521 Non-binary is just "I don't want to be associated with my gender because I'm not like the other girls/guys". Literally everyone is unique in their own ways. It's a label that applies to everyone who wants to be annoying enough to use it. Any new fantasy terminology for it would be equally annoying. Good fantasy doesn't make itself dated with modern politics like this.
Strangely enough, its not the non-buynary thing that bothers me the most. I do lack the context from the game as I haven't played it, and I am less likely to do so each day, but I need to talk about this. Taash's mother talks a lot about Qun like she still believes in it. But under the Qun, Qunari DO NOT KNOW THEIR PARENTS. The very concept of a family unit deos not exist under the Qun. So maybe her mother left the Qun when she was pregnant, but then why does she holds so close to the tenants of this religion if she so openly defied it. So by that logic both, Taash and the mother are Taal'vashoth, so I find it extremely hard to imagine Qunari peacefully interacting with someone like that. I know that Qunari have a peaceful settlement in Rivain, but they are known to not take kindly to Qunari violating their laws, let alone leave the Qun. Quanri have always been to me the most interesting thing about the whole setting, so it bothers me like a pebble in my shoe.
The Qun also have their own in-universe terminology. One of Iron Bull’s squad was trans in DA: Inquisition and that was already a concept the lore recognized 10 years ago
Yeah, the Qun are raised by a class of people who exist just for that. They don't bare the children, but they raise them. That are also fine with trans. One of them was in Iron Bull's merc band. There was no need for the ret-con to focus on this. They already did that will the trans man in Inquisition. This is just confusing lore mangling.

I'm a lesbian and that meant a lot to me. It still only mattered if the games were fun and the stories fit. This seems so out of place.
@@manaofonyx7550 DAI was a retcon, the Qunari heavily disavow people who try to escape their fate and be something they are not. A qunari tr00n (which wouldn't exist since it's a modern invention 😂) would be in the same tier as a mage or anyone that goes agasint the Qun
I remember how much Origins helped me with my English as a non-native. Now, well... Now we have *THIS*. 21st century first world country teenage-sounding Qunaris.
I think the mother is supposed to be that stern parent that doesn't show affection but turns out they deeply loved their kid all along, but instead I see a scene of a parent taking it calmly, asking them to explain and even trying to understand by drawing parallels to what they know (whatever the fuck an aqun-athlok is) and she lashed out like she was measuring her up against someone or finding her wanting. The child is the one, literally, telling their parent to do better, when they are the only one trying. Man I hope the player has a choice of saying "What the fuck, Taash? What's wrong with you?" during the scene.
@@georgeray1906 So you mean she wasn't just trying, she was even close to the mark. Honestly I thought that to drive the point home of being "misunderstood" it would be something like "twisted soul" or "just confused" to make it look like the mother was old fashioned or lacking empathy. Truly this character doesn't get better the more I find out. Amazing.
Idk if it's the VA or the direction of the voice for taash but man its just hard to listen to...the growling and the trying to sound masculine just comes off so....forced i guess and incredibly Unnatural.
@joethealternativegamer3935 its just sad that every games nowadays either do this sort of thing or they get bashed for being bigots, but at the end, it's the gamer that will choose 😎
This dialogue in the first scene sounds like the writer had a lightbulb moment in the shower - probably triggered by something that happened in real life - but, of course, they missed their chance to deliver the perfect comeback. Now they're replaying it in their mind, imagining the flawless zinger they could have said.
Thanks, that's me, I've been waiting for Dragon Age: Dreadwolf for years. Instead I got DEI: Wokeguard If I ever play this... IF!... I'm not paying a single coin.
Dev team thought their lives are so tragically epic that everyone needs to experience it via self-inserts in this groomer propaganda disguised as a DA title. These ideological zealots are everywhere now!
Pause the video at 4:12 and tell me that mask doesn't look like something a kid drew on paper plate for Halloween. Least intimidating Dragon King ever.
Iirc aqun-athlok isn't talking about "gender given at birth" It's about someone who's role don't match their gender according to The Qun; i.e. female soldier. Also iirc, (and need more context) Qunari don't know their birth parents, they are given to caretakers called Tamassran since birth Maybe this Shathan is that instead of actual mother Qunari culture doesn't acknowledge individuality, they don't have personal name, only their role/rank under the Qun There is no way they would care what you identified as Based on Qunari depiction in previous games, someone like Taash would either be 're-educated' or declared as Tal Vasoth and killed I don't know what happened to Harding but she seems to lose a heavy dose of intelligence compared to Inquisition version
I've written fan-fiction with better dialogue than this triple A "game" (really, it SHOULD be called a "chore" because it's a SLOG to get through) - and let me tell you, I am, by no means, the best fan-fiction writer out there. Seeing worse writing coming from a studio with (a) "professional" writer/s makes me feel a LOT better about my own writing.
Thank you sincerely for putting this compilation together! Anyone needing an Immersion Breaking Dialogue 101 lesson could cringe to this collection of...questionable...direction in narration.
What an insufferable git of a character. Also, that first scene with Taash and Harding is incomprehensible, man. People don't answer each other's questions! They just move on to the next topic or repeat information. It's like taking crazy pills.
So, im Captain of the enterprise...so, im now youre going to call me admiral. You realize this person would probably think im stupid? Or would probably start calling me admiral. I dont know which one is worse
The *moment* I saw Taash I knew she'd be the most insufferable of all. 😑 Can we recruit her mom instead? The hilariously deadpan anti-woke version, of course.
It's kind of funny how the writer obviously trauma dump on the players, but everyone seems to think taash is in the wrong and the mother was reasonable.
Nobody hates the triple fantasy of non-binary, maybe some, but what sucks is why all the writers that want push it on every piece of content they can, suck so much at writing compelling narratives or dialogues and sht great pieces of IP

This is one of those games that isn't even worth pirating
@@jakobsongam1 🤣🤣🤣
The final boss of "you cringe, you lose" videos
@@YouTookMyAccountName 🤣
This dialogue in the first scene sounds like the writer had a lightbulb moment in the shower - probably triggered by something that happened in real life - but, of course, they missed their chance to deliver the perfect comeback. Now they're replaying it in their mind, imagining the flawless zinger they could have said.

I feel so sorry for the dragon age fans that they got this…I legit feel bad for them.
Thanks, that's me, I've been waiting for Dragon Age: Dreadwolf for years. Instead I got DEI: Wokeguard
If I ever play this... IF!... I'm not paying a single coin.
@@JunDageki yes they love ruining legacy IP
Dev team thought their lives are so tragically epic that everyone needs to experience it via self-inserts in this groomer propaganda disguised as a DA title. These ideological zealots are everywhere now!
@@MacClariggs well if this isn’t a success, maybe less of them
*SHE* is really lucky that Arishok died on Hawke's hands back in Kirkwall... Because, she will ended up like Ketojan if Arishok was alive
Yeah... but isn't arishok a title? Like it's 15 years or smth from da2 i'm pretty sure they promoted someone for this job
@@simartru clearly is not doing the job good enough
The Arishok literally did nothing wrong. We should have listened.
@@DeplorableSnowman He only did one thing wrong... Getting on the path of Hawke
Our Sten became Arishok after we killed Arishok. Wonder what he'd say about this.
It's even funnier when you turn on all the "trigger warnings" in the accessibility options
Get the fuck out, are you being serious or joking? I wouldn't be surprised now a days if you were serious.
@@-TriP- omg!
Everything about this feels like a chore.
@@urfinal9 yes!
Is there an option to fire Trash from the group, or not recruit her at all? It would save player 90% of all the cringe.
@@GrandeScorpio you want choices in your dragon age!?

@@stellviahohenheim yes lol
Is this game a comedy genre?
@@traistarudavid9273 probably would have worked better as satire lol
There's a video of the vegetables scene with a laugh track and Seinfeld music. It really works.
@@Sedinesthat track should have played through the entire game.
Are we sure Sweet baby Inc wasn't involved with this 🤣
@@WhereMerx no one with talent was
Weren't the Qunari like emotionless foreigners who followed some strict code of honor?
Not all of them follow the Qun, some were born outside of it, some are Tal-Vashot - defected from it.
Pause the video at 4:12 and tell me that mask doesn't look like something a kid drew on paper plate for Halloween. Least intimidating Dragon King ever.
In the near future, dialogue in movies and games will solely be people screeching and wailing about oppression.
@@seinfan9 oh what fun!
Iirc aqun-athlok isn't talking about "gender given at birth"
It's about someone who's role don't match their gender according to The Qun; i.e. female soldier.
Also iirc, (and need more context) Qunari don't know their birth parents, they are given to caretakers called Tamassran since birth
Maybe this Shathan is that instead of actual mother
Qunari culture doesn't acknowledge individuality, they don't have personal name, only their role/rank under the Qun
There is no way they would care what you identified as
Based on Qunari depiction in previous games, someone like Taash would either be 're-educated' or declared as Tal Vasoth and killed
I don't know what happened to Harding but she seems to lose a heavy dose of intelligence compared to Inquisition version
This happenes when woke people are writting script 😅
@@enigmalex3649 sadly!
I'd say that's what happens when idiots write the script =_=
"I'm nonbinary."
"What does that mean?"
"It means I have a few screws loose."

Keep your privates private. Love who you need to love. A personal choice should not necessitate universal agreement.

The voice acting is by far the most shocking voice acting ive ever hear absolutely cringe and atrocious
@@tommills9575 yea many of the characters feel off!

Interesting you say this, because I felt the voice was having it's time when displaying her anger. Guess she's giving it from experience. :D
"what does that even mean"
"well idk, a couple of nerds in another universe gonna invent this thing called BASIC...."
@@Shetyre hahahahah
I've written fan-fiction with better dialogue than this triple A "game" (really, it SHOULD be called a "chore" because it's a SLOG to get through) - and let me tell you, I am, by no means, the best fan-fiction writer out there. Seeing worse writing coming from a studio with (a) "professional" writer/s makes me feel a LOT better about my own writing.
One time in a bar I tried to tell a woman she smelled good while making Klingon noises. It didn't end well.
@@Meitti I got my wife that way

What an insufferable git of a character.
Also, that first scene with Taash and Harding is incomprehensible, man. People don't answer each other's questions! They just move on to the next topic or repeat information. It's like taking crazy pills.

Since when did the Qunari have a mother?

The best description is that all thr characters are written like California cosplayers. Nobody in yhr writing room took the setting serious
@@SaltyChickenDip looks like it!
Taash had beaten sera for the most hated character in one swoop...
The *moment* I saw Taash I knew she'd be the most insufferable of all. 😑
Can we recruit her mom instead? The hilariously deadpan anti-woke version, of course.
@@opo3628 yea I want mom!
what kind of brain rot makes you think of these lines? lol

It's kind of funny how the writer obviously trauma dump on the players, but everyone seems to think taash is in the wrong and the mother was reasonable.

"I'm non-binary"
Yes because there's no way you could've SHOWN US THIS ffs
Nobody hates the triple fantasy of non-binary, maybe some, but what sucks is why all the writers that want push it on every piece of content they can, suck so much at writing compelling narratives or dialogues and sht great pieces of IP
