Oh I've gotten my quota of laughable s*** from you and then some.
(Srsly, the KGB?
Any other stupid s*** at this point is just a bonus.
And you being your SJW self will post more stupid s***, I know it. In the meantime, every second you spend here the gay agenda is winning. Have fun with that.

Running out of first world problems is like running out of organic cafes in Williamsburg. Ain't never gonna happen.
Isn't it? What's the difference between you and an SJW, again?
Educate yourself on what Cultural Marxism is.

I'm not seeing much of a difference myself either.
Perceives his/her side is an oppressed minority? Check.
Engaging in lengthy and hostile debates against others on a range of issues concerning social injustice, identity politics and political correctness? Double check.
They are both arguing just as angrily in the same debate, just on different sides. SJW label seems to be slapped on the liberal side of the argument, but it seems just as applicable to their opponents as well in the end. They are both fighting for their own perception of "social justice".
The only times I've seen the term used is when someone gets called on their racist/homophobic opinions, the person that called them on their racist/homophobic statements gets labeled as a SJW by the perpetrator of those heinous views.

Hey BSN, I know how to show those gosh darned SJWs that we won't put up with their stuff! We'll turn the tables on them, eh? Make a NEW acronyn for them (well at least the darned tootin' sexy ones like Cassie and Josie) that'll make 'em cry and run away. Y'all ready for it?? Here it is...
SJWILF! Like MILF, but, ya know, for SJW!! Woo, come on, I know we can do it! Who's with me???
To clear up the earlier pages: A SJW is a person that invokes Poe's Law whenever they talk about their left-leaning political views and you are constantly left to wonder if that person is a troll or just that crazy. A SJW views the world in black and white, and thus whenever someone calls for moderation then that someone is automatically painted as the "ultimate evil", which may differ from SJW to SJW. An example could be a "transmisogynistic rape apologist" or something like that. In the same vein then in their mind anyone who oppose them has to be of the extreme right, despite plenty of people on the left not liking these extremists at all.
And frankly there's not a whole lot of them on this forum, at least from my experience. I think I have met one at most.

Honestly I think you would be safer by signing up for the frontlines in WW1.
I do think that if you have a problem with inclusivity in games you're probably a bit of an arsehat, but you're entitled to your opinion all the same.
I don't think most people have a problem with inclusivity in games, but I think they do have an issue when it is tacked on. I mean some games just aren't suited for inclusivity, a game set in medieval Poland would feel very odd if it had all kinds of ethnicities put into it that wasn't exactly on that continent at the time. Being inclusive just for the hell of it in such a title does a disservice to the historical theme.

you make a distinctive point
Is it not an act of SJWism to rail against SJWs?
Maybe someone could post an example of the kinds of things these people do that are so horrible so we could have a baseline reference point.
There's a difference, I think, between medieval Poland and Thedas. If something's set in a real-world backdrop then it should be reflective of the time, lest it be disingenuous. If something is set in a full-fantasy realm of an author's own depicting, that author has full reign to mix things up as he or she sees fit. It's up to us as individuals how positively we respond to the author's creation, of course, but I'm always game for experiencing twists on familiar themes. An otherwise-dark fantasy with a more progressive stance on certain pivotal elements is a refreshing gig.

Ha! Oh, there are plenty of Squaresoft fans in the world, just not here.
To answer the question in the original post: The Dragon Age series tends to be a lot better than most RPGs about representation; the creators seem to really care about social justice issues and try to include a lot of people of color and queer people in their games. The characters they include generally are well-written, diverse, interesting and flawed; it's clear that they're attempting to make a world that has issues with oppression but not in the same way as Earth and so the residents of Thedas have plenty of different skin colors because there's no reason that they wouldn't.
They also tackle a ton of social justice issues, both on a large scale (Tevinter slavery, the plight of the poor in Ferelden and Orlais, corruption in the ruling class, the imperialism of Orlais, the marginalization of elves and the atrocious acts performed during the Exalted Marches, and of course the oppression of mages) and on a smaller, individual one (Dorian's treatment by his family and their attempts to send him to a magical version of "reprogramming", Sera's internalized racism, etc.). The worldbuilding of Thedas is well-informed of these issues and that's a large part of what makes it interesting and dynamic; it actually uses social issues in interesting ways that add depth to the world, something that I rarely see in big studio games.
As far as "realism" is concerned, a lot of modern ideas about whiteness and race are informed by centuries of slavery and attempts to dehumanize Black people, and as a result there's a lot less visibility of historical people of color, but they were totally around in Europe.
The more i delve deep into the opinions of others, the more I find that SJWs are in love with this game. Most likely the liberal progressive feels bioware were after. However, this much SJW's as made me rethink If I should continue supporting this franchise, DA:O never had them and that was the best game in the franchise.

Actually there are studies in genetics that say that Medieval Poland had more Asian and Finno-Ugric population than the modern country, so yes there was a lot more diversity than people think.

What does that even mean?
This thread was about SJWs being attracted by this game, how did you end up talking about the dehumanization of black people?
