We've heard so much about TW3 in these forums. About how great and wonderful it is. And that really scares me. Especially considering how problematic the game is. Its lack of respect for women, homosexuals and minorities being the major ones. In the entire game, you play as some old, boring, white dude who can go around sleeping with young women, who are often prostitutes and are forced to sell themselves. The fact that the developers thought it would be a good idea to allow players to take advantage of disadvantaged women is disgusting. There is so much misogyny in the game. Women are treated like crap everywhere. Then there's the lack of racial diversity and lack of representation for the LGBT community as well. 

 

Bioware, please don't let this disgusting dudebro simulator influence you. The game is stupid and has a really despicable protagonist. Please don't ruin Mass Effect by imitating CD Project Red. You're better than this.

Yes, I'm sure that was the plan-- to turn 2583 CE into a medieval time full of homophobes and misogynists, because TW3 sold so well. Time to panic, everyone!

In this case, the OP isn't wrong, but I seriously doubt it was going to be an issue to begin with.

Game developers often like to imitate each other's success. And we know how misogynistic the industry is. It is a very real concern. Look at how popular GTA is, despite the horrible way it treats women. This is a very real concern.

Darn kids these days don't know how to properly troll a forum.

Yes, the Witcher is a bad game because it doesn't whitewash the grimdarkness of the source material it is based on.

OP, like many regressives, don't know the context for the game's setting or events.

The worst part is that I don't even like witcher series that much, And I wanted bioware to find their own style instead of taking the one of witcher 3, that universe is too dark and too grey for me to actually care or get attached to the characters.

 

So I was excited to read what you wrote...until I read it.

 

I do criticize the witcher series from time to time, but certainly not that the witcher is homohpobic, racist or macho, for reasons...

Its a video game. There's absolutely no justification for making a game where you play as an old white dude that goes around banging disadvantaged women and roleplay as a misogynist, in a setting that is full of misogyny.

And now in this thread we have the opposite extreme where the OP wants to whitewash and censor everything.

You can easily make a game with people of varying genders and sexualities, without forcing a heteronormative and misogynistic setting on everyone.

Bioware could only stand to improve their games if they followed CDPR's ideas.  So I have no idea what this thread is talking about.

I'll believe that it's worth a damn when I see them allow for actual character customization.
