Please though, continue to bring your own real world bigotry into the game world. Everything must be a social commentary these days.

It's a particular part of the game that kinda irked me...perhaps I should have put it in the spoilers. If you are an edumacated person over 25 though, it's an insult
You are obviously 25 years old.

Is there something wrong with drawing social parallels with the real world?

America is what 500 years old...if you go all the way back to it's discovery?
How many thousands of years old is slavery and subjugation?

Not at all, and I agree with the conclusons they want me to get out of it...but I understood it 20 years ago, so its annoying. This is what you teach children.

He's implying that humans are like Americans in that they are paying reparations and what not to the "Elves" which are basically a manifest of Blacks/Native americans/Mexicans etc.
Essentially, he's upset that Elves were slaves to humans because he's somehow converted it in his mind that it's some sort of real world social commentary.

That's some pretty expensive social commentary.
I guess D is also against ideas at large because they are drawn from real life.

So are most fantasy storylines. Most of them are either about how power corrupts or about discrimination.Draelorn wrote...

Ok, what I should have said here is that the writers took on some universal subject matter, but were kinda lazy but making it so easilly correspond to modern day. A writer's job is one of creativity, not to transcribe events as we know them with different cultures and races...I just think it's lazy writing.
ok now we're getting somewhere.
