it's so fashy

I've played these games so much so I have no illusions that they are mostly insane liberal propaganda but this always stood out as particularly vile

I occasionally look up the like full dialogue trees of conversations on youtube and anything remotely involving Batarians have like 75% just straight up fascist comments (like literally you see slightly modified quotes of actual fascists)

idk just kinda disheartening to see so many ppl just go fully along with it and have basically nobody be like "hey maybe don't"

Bioware created Dragon Age and Mass Effect to be able to create games like Baldur's Gate and Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic without licensing a popular franchise. At this point, I'm pretty sure most of the people who made the 00s Bioware games fun or interesting are working at other places and all that is left is a husk of late 00s/early 10s extremely mid IP.
