Idk man, now I’m left feeling like the shitty asshole simply because I wanted more representation in the game. Like the responsibility of the studio failing falls on my shoulders and others like me who were asking for too much.

Sorry for existing - sorry for wanting what others get by default simply by being the social norm.

Whatever.

So there’s this trend I’m seeing on social media about people boycotting / encouraging people not to buy the upcoming Mass Effect remasters.

The reasonings being somewhat varied, some valid, others not, but mostly centering around one thing in specific; cut content relating to same sex relationships that didn’t make it into the games.

Now, I understand not being interested in the product being offered; I’m probably not going to buy it myself for a lack of specific features like multiplayer and… just not needing the buy the game for my fifth or sixth time. It’s completely valid to think the remasters are just not doing enough for you to justify a purchase, or that their faith in the company doing it properly in their current state isn’t there. I get that.

But the mood that’s come up lately isn’t just disinterest; it’s downright outrage. Violent, ideologically charged opposition to even the concept of the remasters because of a perceived failure to meet their extremely specific and often high standards and notions of progressiveness.

People are 100% allowed to be upset that the Mass Effect Legendary edition is just a cash grab and are 100% justified in their anger and frustration with bioware. No one is trying to bully people into not buying the remaster, if you’re excited about it, cool.

But please don’t be dismissive of very valid criticisms regarding many of the problematic pieces to the game that bioware is just keeping in because they didn’t want to spend the time or allocate resources to fix it.

When I think back at it, my sister was the first one to tell me she just wanted to see me happy when I came out to my fam. God, when I think of how she passed at 35, of all those years we won’t have together, the fury man, it’s got no where to go. Some nights it feel like I might drown in it. Whew.

There was a beautiful poem I heard at one time, “Dirge without Music” by Edna St. Vincent Millay, and I just remember weeping. It felt like a manifestation of my grief. Beautiful and melancholy.

There’s not a day I don’t miss her. Idk why, but I just needed to put this somewhere in writing tonight.

One time I was scrolling through tumblr and I came across a video of a dude in an N7 hoodie kissing some cute guy, and then it switched to him getting a blowie from the same guy, and I remember thinking like, “wow, get it commander, you deserve it.”

Anyways, I still think about that video to this day. Wild.
