Why the New Dragon Age is Failing with Flying Colors

Image Credit: Dragon Age: The Veilguard | BioWare | Electronic Arts Welcome to Dragon Age: The Veilguard, a title that's been in development for almost 10 years, estimated between $80 million and $200 million to make, and hyped as the next epic chapter in the Dragon Age saga while (twist ending) in reality it might just be the franchise’s very undoing. Because in a world where Baldur’s Gate 3 has already proven that players can have meaningful choices and gritty, raw freedom, The Veilguard only seems interested in talking down to their audience while shoveling their Concord-sized agenda down the unwilling throats of gamers everywhere. While I'm not going to sit and pretend that every single facet of this game was a complete disaster, I can say with unabashed certainty that, in a game that's supposed to be an immersive […]

2024 DEI-Dumpster Fires: Concord, Dustborn, and Suicide Squad

Hey there, fellow gamers! It’s your friendly neighborhood asshat, Ayefkay, back again to spill the tea on the gaming industry. The thing I love most about running reportafk.com?

Let's dive into why these games fell flatter than Alyssa Mercante! 1. Concord – A Disjointed Space Mess First up is Concord, a game that claimed to bring us a fresh take on the space-shooter genre. The activists pretending to be gamers were absolutely buzzing when the teaser dropped, with all the murky and androgynous character models aplenty, but then the game was released...and uh, where’s […]

The DEI-Struction of Gaming

As you find yourself navigating the changing landscape of gaming, you might find yourself wondering...what the hell happened? Surrounded by the androgynous and sexually ambiguous characters of woke games that put their overly-forced messaging over aesthetics, organic storytelling, or character design - it honestly seems like the last thing on any modern game developers mind is, "How can we make this more fun?". And it shows, painfully so. Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives have become a widespread infection across multiple industries in recent years, including and especially gaming. Originally designed to promote a more "inclusive and welcoming environment" for all players, the unnatural escalation of DEI efforts, focusing more on virtue signaling than game design, has seemed to mutate into a race of who can make the most impact, for better or worse. I think it's pretty obvious at […]
