Who are these fucking complete garbage people who can conceive of a world where there are elves, dwarves, Qunari and darkspawn, but trans people are a bridge too far?
True Polymorph is a bridge too far, my good sir.

The best Dragon Age game is still Origins. They've had two sequels that haven't matched the quality of the original. That's what I would worry about. "Woke" had nothing to do with under-delivery.
This is the reality. EA, Ubisoft they both created masterpieces in the past. And they just got worse in every release with their beloved series. The reason is mostly nothing is simple anymore. People want simplicity, not bunch of launchers with additional accounts, always online single player games, tens of DLCs that were suppose to be in the main game.
Simplicity to access the content is important, but I'd argue just as important is they've tried to make the games simple and appealing to everyone, and they end up not really appealing to anyone. Make an interesting game for the people that want it. Don't make a game no one wants.
It genuinely feels like the notion of a pure triple AAA RPG is slowly being torn down by publishers chasing the wide audience of action game fans who will ultimately not care that much for the end product.
Jack of all trades, master of none.
Dragon Age's drop in reputation had nothing to do with launchers, given many if not most players were on console.
"Simplicity" is arguably what killed it, because they had an excellent formula with Origins, and "simplified" it to the point it lost its identity as a true RPG.
I have one problem with this:

Everybody get up, it's time to slam now
We got a real jam goin' down
Welcome to the Space Jam
Game not selling well? Find a tweet from a nobody talking about your shitty game being "woke." Sensationalize it, position yourself as a bastion fighting against the hordes, imply that only by purchasing the failing game can the average liberal "fight back."
Profit.
Ffs, there's no conspiracy here mate, the game is meeting expectations. The problem is there are a lot of trolls trying to tear it down because trans people are in it, not that the writers are calling out bigots.
