    And nothing of value was lost.

    Not because of the gay stiff, kind, but because the BioWare hasn’t made a game that isn’t shit for ages.

      …

      Homie? I am not going to pretend I have liked… ANYTHING Bioware has done since DA2/ME3. But when your first response to “gay stuff is out” is “nothing of value is lost. Oh, I mean Bioware, not the actual gay stuff” you have to really question what you are doing with your life.

      Some shit is more important than your hatred of a studio for… not making games you want to buy. And you ALWAYS have the option of pretending it is Friday and shutting the fuck up.

No gatekeeping and being rude to people who don’t agree with you. Leave “gamer” stereotypes out of your comment (e.g. sexless, neck bearded, teenaged, basement-dwelling, etc). Don’t compare people to animals, or otherwise deny their humanity. Even if you think someone is the worst human on the planet, do not wish death or harm upon them.

No “justice porn”. Posts regarding legal action and similar is allowed, but celebrating someone being harmed is not.
