Okay, let's cut on people bashing. I hate the "bye felicia" response but I I equally hate the "butthurt" remarks.

 

Can we call it 'huttburt' instead? At least it sounds more fun than the other one.

David Gaider had no input is SoD I belive. It was entirely whats her name that left.

 

Amber Scott, who is now the single worst writer I have ever experienced, even worse than Mac Walters, somehow.

It never ceases to amaze me that people love Elf Hitler but everyone hates Anders.

I really hope the next DA game, if there is one, gives us a chance to redeem Solas. I want to kill him because I choose to kill him, not because I have to kill him.

Woah, aren't you alovely spirit :D

Can I love them both? And kill them both if need arises?

I'd post a song I think is relevant but it'd likely get me banned.

 

Lemme do it instead of you then:

Nothing yet. Though based on Beamdogs last release it's all up from there.

 

Not even just SoD. BG2 EE since its release has been pretty bad, between bugs from day 1 never being fixed, multiplayer only working when it wants to, and the total inability to buy the original BG2 without also getting the EE in a bundle.

 

You might say that I dislike Beamdog.

She was the one who claimed Jaheira was a "sexist" stereotype of a "nagging wife," correct? Someone with that attitude has no business working on a Baldur's Gate expansion.

Yeah, major exaggeration, it's not like he's trying to wipe out the human race.

There is literally nothing else to be done other than let the situation deteriorate. The boards will be read-only on August 26, and gone entirely in October.

Meh, the boards closing is not enough reason for me to go full douche on devs. I hate the decision but love myself too much to wallow in this misery.

"Hurt" sounds good enough for me.

Having been here since around DA2's release, I can say that both of them have always been like that. They weren't embittered by the trolls, their attitudes are probably what made a lot of people troll.

Furthermore, people representing a business are expected to conduct themselves with some degree of maturity. Minimum wage employees at Wal-Mart and McDonald's are held to professionalism standards and they have to put up with all sorts of abuse. They definitely aren't allowed to take out their frustrations on the customer base as a whole. These excuses that they shouldn't be held to the same standards are minimum wage grunts is an asinine excuse.


And I have been on the forums since '98 or so when NWN1 was in development. With each larger forums, more trolling and non-constructive crit. With DA2 and ME3, things were turned up with death threats and whatnot, so one can see the increase of their sarcasm.

But if one is repelled by their responses, how much more offensive are those making replies about them behind their backs, so to speak?

Yeah, that's her. She also went out of her way to criticize Safana and people who liked her, calling her a "sex object", before turning around and saying "I get to make decisions about who I write about and why. I don't like writing about straight/white/cis people all the time. It's not reflective of the real world, it sets up s/w/c as the 'normal' baseline from which 'other' characters must be added, and it's boring."

 

And then she wants to pretend she's a victim on Twitter when people say mean comments to her, after she okays censoring their Steam forums and actively antagonizes the people who play her games. She's delusional and a hypocrite.

Legitimately, more than probably any company I can think of, I don't think Beamdog deserves the money people give them. Not only are the games they make just not good, but they're a bunch of a***oles to their customers. I hope they go out of business, and soon.

One tweet rustles your jimmies? And then you go on about thicker skin? Come on guys. Take a punch if you throw one.
 

Spoiler


I tend to agree. The comments were a bit rude, but I don't really care about the predictable response of some ex-Bio devs who always held some obvious (and yes, somewhat justified) contempt for this place even at a time when you'd think they would be more constrained by Bio's PR department.

But given what passes for community management nowadays, I suppose they never really could figure out how to handle us sensitive babies.

Oh, I did give them constructive feedback.

 

Then they banned me and told me I wasn't welcome. I'm not kidding when I say they might be the worst developer I've ever played games from.

Right now, CD Projekt RED is everything the BioWare of old was.

 

That's quite an understatement... some people like the teacher-student analogy but in this case it feels to me like the student figuratively blew the teacher's head off with a shotgun.

 

The quality that The Witcher 3 oozes in pretty much every regard is an order of magnitude above anything Bioware has ever done.

I'm not really a big fan of the Witcher series... but maybe it's time to change that. Witcher 3 looks amazing, and I've heard nothing but good things about CDPR's treatment of its fans.

I'd nominate Gearbox for the discussion, but I'm not sure anyone is giving them money anymore. Moot point I guess.

...I saw that tweet from Gaider. Then I saw Priestly respond with a "Bye Felicia" and a winky face. Gaider liked the comment. I had to look up the term "Bye Felicia"......and I see now what they actually think about us. All these years, all this time. Yeah" #iPlayBioware " what a laugh they must have gotten from that. People sending them stuff; thank you's and art, and all that.....

 

I didn't knew that term earlier, so I also looked it up for curiosity sake. I don't know what to say really. If according to them BSN is toxic, how am I suppossed to call the way they're acting?
