Thanks to Gaider, Cassandra had a serious case of Not Like Other Womenitis so... yeah. No.

CONFESSION:

WRITERS. Take notes on how Gaider writes women. Cassandra is my favorite female character throughout the entire series. Don’t get me wrong they are all my Queens and little other titles can compare to how Dragon Age does women.

But you see so many sides of her as a platonic friend, lover, and frenemy. She’s bluntly straightforward and steely- she’s a devout soul with a rational mind and an understanding heart. She can be callous just as much as she can be kind- you see her doubt in spite of her talent and skill. You emphasize with her conflict of faith and the conflict of her legacy. She’s immensely self-aware just as much as she can be self-righteous.

She’s very precious to me.

They wouldn’t have to make hundreds of Kierans, just give Kieran’s model a few different skin colors. Not perfect, not great, but still better than what we got.

CONFESSION:

I do think it sucks that Kieran is generic with features that favor Morrigan. And while I think BioWare (and other game companies) definitely need to improve when it comes to diversity, studying game development has made understand a great many things. There is something called……….RESOURCES.  They would need to make 100s of Kierans. RESOURCES COST MONEY.

And if they had created a Kieran for every Warden…. many in the fandom would still complain. Complaining is a sporting event in this fandom. People would complain about every aspect of Kieran and how there is no resemblance to their warden, etc.   And anybody saying this would not happen is LYING or IN DENIAL. This would happen!!! Because this is how the fandom rolls.  

So yes…I definitely do think BioWare and other game companies need to work on improving diversity but this fandom and many others live in a bubble (and fantasy world) about how game development is.  What game aspects would be sacrificed to accomodate 100 different Kierans?  And while people complained about how Kieran looked there would be complaints about other aspects in the game that are missing. Because no matter what the developers do/try people will COMPLAIN. Its a never ending cycle. And its this sort of thing that makes me want to remain behind the scenes when I eventually get a job.

Confession likely in response to this confession
