FWIW, Dragon Age got brigaded hard by hard-right anti-woke trolls (and Skillup outright lied in his review, which has been passed around like a bad of chips). It's truthfully excellent, with great storytelling (leaning very hard on horror) and great character writing, with the most fun gameplay of any Dragon Age game.

Just saw someone talk about a republican house, senate and presidency altogether as a good thing.

Compared it to Obama. Obama had no interest in dictatorship. Republicans meanwhile keep getting real excited about Hitler.

It's looking real ugly over there. People are talking about a red mirage, but....that seems more and more unlikely the longer this goes on.

MARGE!

Ugh, between still suffering from Saturday's hayfever, and my cafe being closed (no time to try another one), WFH today is gonna feel like hell.

Sounds like you're almost there then mate! May your editing be quick and easy!

Woke up roughly two hours before I meant to. Goddamnit Dragon Age just fucking release so I can sleep normally again

All the best mate, sounds like you killed it!

One of my coworkers came in sick. We are so unbelievably busy and have been in a state of crunch for the last month, and I have leave scheduled for Dragon Age and my partner's birthday in a week.

I will be so sad if I catch the horrible hacking cough she's got, I booked an expensive restaurant and everything

Been trying to track down info about this because it really rather threw me - in the Northcote area yesterday, there was a whole bunch of laminated signs on posts up and down All Nations. I glanced at one and it looked like antivaxx propaganda, but no one else online has mentioned it. Anyone know what that was?

A word to the wise, as you say you don't normally buy games - do double check whether your Mac is new enough for the game. I don't know exactly how specs work on mac, but I would hazard a guess that anything older than, say, 2019, won't be able to play it.

Ffs, there's no conspiracy here mate, the game is meeting expectations. The problem is there are a lot of trolls trying to tear it down because trans people are in it, not that the writers are calling out bigots.
