it's not her fault that Veilguard was underwhelming. The studio basically fired all of the people who wrote and worked on the first 3 dragon age games halfway into the development and pushed to turn it into something it wasn't.

hell, I'm more concerned about WotC's involvement than hers since Larian isn't gonna be working on it

They had to restart development and abandon work so many times because of EA being idiots. And then had time crunch to hit a deadline because again, parent company EA is full of idiots. and this was after being originally developed as a Live Service Game

but sure, let’s all dogpile on the ONE Trans Woman (Who joined development in 2022 btw) that actually managed to get the game out of Development hell

Did you play the other Dragon Age games? I've held off on playing it because I really did enjoy the previous games and how dark, gritty fantasies they were as well as the romances and the choices you could make that made some sort of impact. I've heard this all changed in Veilguard and that they want Dragon Age to no longer be a dark game. I've also seen some excerpts of the writing/choices and it seems bad.
