Fantasy flight has released a new game and labeled it a Descent game.
They made a very expensive game, with horrible art. The hero selection has no male human/ dwarf fighter characters, no white human male characters at all. The only character that is manly is a black wizard dude that I admit is kind of cool. The male elf ranger character is the most pathetic looking character that they could have designed.
In previous games Fantasy Flight made it a thing to have both male and female represented in their games. The Descent Second Edition game had 1 male and 1 female of every class. You had male fighters and female fighters, male mages and female mages etc. Now in a game that is a freaking 175$ they decided to not include the most popular characters, male human fighters and male dwarf fighters. Their Descent player base is as you expect white and male but they decided to not include it at all in their game.
Sorry for the rant.
Had to make a small edit: One of the characters Vaerix, the Dragon-Hybrid Outcast has neutral pronouns. Cause of course they does.
I played about halfway(2/3?) through a pirate copy of borderlands 3 and just couldn't motivate myself to learn the patterns on the penn and teller boss.
The gameplay and loot really is a lot of fun I think they brought back decapitations from sniper hits? not sure if that was real or just my misremembering.
But the story and characters were so GODAWFUL and so cringy agenda pushing that it turned me off on the game entirely. Maybe I'll pirate it again if they release an "endless" mode that is just random scaling levels and loot but a company that releases something with that kind of narrative isn't getting a dime from me (and I happily paid for launch day B2, Season pass, and psycho char).
