  Are EA bigots? They have always been the epitome of amoral capitalism in the gaming world to me

    Given their new owners, it wouldn’t be too far off to call them bigots now.

    “Woke” was actually a problem with DA4 with how piss poorly the writers handled it, it was embarrassing. Absolutely not bigots

    Many game companies were bigots. shrugs. Another example is Ubisoft, founded by 5 brothers (no cooties eh), very toxic environment from my experience.

  The bigotry is probably a new thing for them then because at least back in the day they didn’t give a fuck as long as it made money. Bioware games usually had LGB(perhaps not T, don’t remember any) characters, often as romance options and I recall racial justice being a theme in both Mass Effect and Dragon Age games.

  But I suspect the new owners don’t really want you to infect anyone with the gays™
