If by "SJW narratives" you mean the kinds of things that people on the internet usually mean when they talk about SJW-anything (acknowledging the existence of different sexualities, genders, ethnicities etc.), then yes, I hope there's tons of that in ME:A. It's sad that being inclusive towards minorities is seen as "pandering" or "pushing an agenda", yet when every important character in a piece of media is a straight white guy, those same people wouldn't be seen complaining about it; because then it's them being pandered to, which is completely different for some reason.

And where did I END THE DISCUSSION? It seems you were just upset at my viewpoint on the subject matter, got mad and wrote me off as 'unable to see other peoples opinions'. You turned the exchange into something completely unnecessary. My viewpoint is based off of MY experience dealing with homophobia so yeah, some people yelling SJW! SJW! are homophobes or unable to understand the significance of queer representation, or both and I only say this from personal experiences. Actually, I didn't get mad. I was simply saying that, people CAN disagree with you and not be bigots. That is it. It was you who decided to go on the offensive...WHICH I've learned over the last 35 years of my life, is something anti-bigotry people often do when they come across someone who is neither a bigot nor an anti-bigot. It's all or nothing with people who hold such views.......You are either with them or againest them. And by picking a fight where there was non, you proved me right. But, I like this forum and I'm not going to argue about it. Have a nice day. I know what you were saying but it seemed a bit much to quote my little comment like I didn't already know that? So yes, i felt attacked in a sense hence my response I like this place too and apologize if I came off hostile, someone told me this yesterday as well so I will work on that. I didn't come back to this place to get into arguments lol so yes, sorry about this! And I again, i do get your point.

It'll likely share similar themes/topics that are part of those current talking points (I mean, we're basically in the position of immigrants/refugees trying to adapt in an environment hostile to us, this is basically the sci-fi tradition of taking things happening in our world today and amping it up a million degrees). I remember an episode, quite a dark episode of Deep Space 9 that was about a floatilla of refugees and their attempts to find a new homeworld with all the resultant issues(political & societal, a very difficult moral dilemha) that come with that(issues that we are indeed seeing be played out in the real world of today right now). That was an episode from the first season in 1993!. Amazing how prophetic and ahead of its time in its themes that show was. memory-alpha.wikia.com/wiki/Sanctuary_(episode)

What exactly is you point about me being new? I got the DA A and considering BW's forums are history I created a account here. Now what's wrong with that video? The same thing that its wrong with this one(and I don't mean what Mark Dice is saying): About the new member? Often when threads like this pop up there tends to be a few new people that make their first post in them aka trolls. Not implying you are one, but could've been. Is there a version of the commercial without that guy going on and on? Too many jump cuts in his ranting, makes me exhausted. Ok i watched the commercial without the man baby, and what does it have to do with DA:I? The clip from Dragon Age is about a person finding themself and the consequences of that. The other is Audi saying they believe the wage gap is real (lol). I am sure I have no way of proving I am not an alt account or whatever. All I can say is what I said before. I made this account after BW forums where done and I got MEA. Now about the other part. Its not about the same subject, obviously. But both are preaching non-existing issues. Well unless you are in a Muslim country but I don't see BW or Audi fighting Muslims over there for women rights or gay rights. Western countries are more then FREE for everybody. I really had it with this liberal propaganda in media. Try Supergirl (tv show) as another example. They should keep games as games and not push with different real life politics or whatever else. Again, this is not going to keep my from playing the game, I already both it. I just hope I am not going to have to see this stuff in my games. I have no issues with leading roles being females (I noticed some other topics) for example. But flat out propaganda like this is annoying to me. Hell, even in DAI was not enough for me not to enjoy the game, I actually got that game twice! Once the preorder and then the "game of the year edition" (or whatever it was called) because I wanted all the DLC and it was on offer. Anyway, I got no idea what the OP wanted to say or point at but this is my issue on this topic. I would like stuff like that to not be in my game. Romancing whoever you like?! Yeah sure, who cares. Beating me in the face with stuff like in that video? Yeah I don't like that.

Honestly? Yes.
By this *I* mean a game overly politically correct and dull so nobody will feel offended. It already looks like a totally childish girl scouts in space narrative from the story bits we saw. I'm slightly in shock about how bad the writing seems to be.
Apparently EA's new target audience is 12-year old girls... Peebee's mission was basically girls bickering. Liam Looks like he got imported from The Sims. WTF...
I expect lots of teen drama, identity crisis, overblown romance focus, and white guilt Pocahontas stuff in a totally forgettable story stretched thin over endless enemy grinding on empty maps DAI style. At least DAI had great characters who looked fine. MEA looks like a horror doll freak show. What the hell happened there?? ME1 looked better than this ten years ago. They had FIVE years! I don't understand what's going on with this game. How can it be such a lifeless empty mess from the looks of it?!
Sorry I'm being grumpy. I was quite hyped before, telling myself everything will be fine despite my friends predicting EXACTLY this, a total disaster. I just cannot believe what has happened to my favorite developer. I didn't even hate DAI. I had lots of fun with it despite glaring shortcomings. But this feels like it was made by a different company. Well, guess that's technically true, considering almost none of the old writers are still there, replaced by annoying racists and attention seeking "feminists". What a mess...

What is a(n) SJW and can I eat it? S is a consonant, but the the pronunciation of the letter S starts with a vowel sound. I therefore think it is a social justice warrior but an SJW. Will there be grammar-Nazi narratives in Andromeda? Do not pour your linguist agenda down my throat.

People complain about Liam and call him the token minority, but we all know that if the cast were to be made-up almost entirely of people of differing races with one white guy, there'd be uproar of anti-white racism and "propaganda" pushing a "liberal agenda".

SJW is a term that is thrown around so much now that it has lost all meaning I have seen people throw around the term "SJW" in the same way real SJWs throw around terms like "sexist" and "racist". Any term loses it's punch when you overuse it. I also thought people took some of the SJW type stuff that was in DAI and blew it way way out of proportion.

People complain about Liam and call him the token minority, but we all know that if the cast were to be made-up almost entirely of people of differing races with one white guy, there'd be uproar of anti-white racism and "propaganda" pushing a "liberal agenda". No that's not true. People call Liam token because they don't know what tokenism really is and think that any minority in a group of people will always be token. This is not true but using such words can make people sound like they actually know what they're talking about when they don't. White people being a minority in a game like this is very unlikely because it's made in a western environment where White folks are the majority and that is reflected in the games. No one is trying to be noninclusive. They are simply reflecting what their immediate environment looks like. Maybe from a scientific point of view some other race should be the majority. I don't really know. Regardless I find it rather unlikely that such a change would be made for purely scientific accuracy since that isn't always going to be present in a game about space magic. If you can believe in biotics, aliens, and sound effects in space but not a majority of White folks in a work of fiction then I don't know what to tell you. And no SJW doesn't mean "narratives" or whatever else we'd like to call it to further our own arguments. There's an established definition like everything else. It can be googled like anything else. It, like any other term doesn't lose it's meaning because people do not want to look the term up and pretend it means what they think it means.

With Montreal as the lead developer, yeah but not because of that racist guy... just a hunch. I'm a very judgmental person from experience. Anyone I meet who has "artistic beard" and a septum I can't help but see certain people I've met in them and they were all very wacko and unfriendly while wearing social justice ideas around like a badge. Worked with one who we told to be our CEO guy for an upstart... he fired all of us randomly, then bailed. Nightmare stuff.
I do think there's tokenism about things but honestly I never saw Liam or Jacob as some... or, well, Jacob I always joked that Luke Kristjanson wrote him like he imagined a "black guy" would talk hence the strange sentences like "Gravity is one mean mother" and "Tough son of a bitch!" but because it wasn't convincing... or something, I found Jacob to simply be a memorable character in his own right and he never really struck me as "Oh, there's a black guy, that must be because they're trying to be inclusive!". Then again, my memories of ME2 were before i was even aware of all this SJW back and forth talk on the internet (that also only seemed to be a thing after 2011 or so)

Do not pour your linguist agenda down my throat. I put the n in parentheses because I say each individual letter in the abbreviation but not everyone else does. I always imagined it was pronounced as SEJ-wah but who knows since it is never spoken aloud, only typed by confused middle-class time travellers from the 1950's who need to clearly label their nemeses.

I won't really go into the dangers of such thinking but everything Jacob did tends to be overshadowed by the one thing he did in the eyes of some folks, kind of like how Ashley said that thing about the aliens looking like animals in ME1.

Well considering BW are full of SJWs and even hires racists developers like Manveer Heir ME A is probably going to have that stuff. Still got the game but... What can you do... And by SJW I mean people who put shit like this in games: You see....that doesn't bother me like at all. I get that it doesn't really fit the theme though. This coming from someone who's pretty religious and conservative.

People acknowledge other people just fine without having it smashed against our faces while they say look how progressive we are, people don't care about any sexuality, gender or where the hell you come from, what they want is a good character, but as soon as the character is badly written and people criticize it some loudmouths change it around and make it sound like they have an issue with the characters skin color or gender. Some are worried about devlopers pandering because some have, the baulders gate expansion that was done awhile back people didn't like the bugs that made the game unplayable or there was the one transcharacter that was in it and people didn't have issues with the fact that they were trans but rather they were badly written and only there to basicly say here I am i'm a trans character look at me, rather then making a well fleshed out character that had a rich backstory who happened to be trans. Marvel pandered to the politically correct crowed and their sales started to plumted not because thor or ironman we replaced by women but because they were badly written into it, thor was a name not a title but they magicly said 'hey lets change that for no reason and make the next thor a woman". Or with ironheart where the teenager was just suddenly smarter then Tony stark. Pandering is dangerous because if you add them in just for the sake of adding them then your left with an empty shell and no substance.

No more then any previous bioware game. Take that for how you will. I feel bioware usually does this sort of thing well but i know others who refer to DA I as 'Cisquisition'

People acknowledge other people just fine without having it smashed against our faces while they say look how progressive we are, people don't care about any sexuality, gender or where the hell you come from, what they want is a good character, but as soon as the character is badly written and people criticize it some loudmouths change it around and make it sound like they have an issue with the characters skin color or gender. Some are worried about devlopers pandering because some have, the baulders gate expansion that was done awhile back people didn't like the bugs that made the game unplayable or there was the one transcharacter that was in it and people didn't have issues with the fact that they were trans but rather they were badly written and only there to basicly say here I am i'm a trans character look at me, rather then making a well fleshed out character that had a rich backstory who happened to be trans. Marvel pandered to the politically correct crowed and their sales started to plumted not because thor or ironman we replaced by women but because they were badly written into it, thor was a name not a title but they magicly said 'hey lets change that for no reason and make the next thor a woman". Or with ironheart where the teenager was just suddenly smarter then Tony stark. Pandering is dangerous because if you add them in just for the sake of adding them then your left with an empty shell and no substance. I think the following video explains my position on this matter better than I myself ever could, so if you find the time I recommend you watch it.

Can you lot, like, go away someplace where I no longer have to listen to you?
Because as annoying as actual SJWs are, they mostly tend to keep to themselves in their proverbial ''safe spaces''. Whereas the anti-SJW types love to shout down from every rooftop how offended they are that some people are offended or whatever their issue du jour is. They're fast becoming even more annoying that the Tumblerinos.
