Dragon Age: The Veilguard is such a clunky name

Why is there a “The” in the middle? It doesn’t sound right. Dragon Age: Veilguard is significantly better and that’s without even looking at other name options.

Idk shit about Dragon Age, are there multiple veilguards and you’re like, the veilguard?

I think it’s the group name. It’s “the veilguard” in the same sense as “the Marx brothers” or “the Avengers.”

Dragon Age: Marx Brothers still sounds better than Dragon Age: The Marx Brothers

what sounds even better is Dragon Age: Marx and Engels (the dragon is capitalism you have to slay or something, idk I’ve never played Dragon Age)

tbf I haven’t looked at the new lore yet but even still in the last game you were the Inquisition and it’s still only called Dragon Age: Inquisition

to be even more fair it’s clunky but the dumbest name will always belong to DA2 for having a number instead of a subtitle

It actually was going to have just a subtitle, but the suits decided that people wouldn’t know its a sequel if it isn’t number 2.

When I played GTA Online I made a character sort of loosely based on Omar Little from the wire, I got called the n-word so often on mic it was surreal (I’m white IRL).

Rust is great. Still a fair amount of nazis. Just makes it easier to prioritize bases to destroy. 14th most played game on steam right now. What was edgy about it? Always seemed pretty standard to me.

I think it was mainly the player base that was the edgiest part of it.

Write into the user agreement that everyone scrolls past that the user agrees to take hormones and to put their heart and soul into fully transitioning as soon as possible and then pour the rest of your resources into your legal department to make the gamers understand that they signed a legally binding contract and are going to have to live up to their promise if they ever want to be seen as adults.

You are correct of course, but if someone sat us down and explained to us what we had actually agreed to after we clicked past one of those user agreements I’m pretty sure it would be very different from a forced transition but not all that much better morally.
