LadyVix Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 JUMP INTO YOUR FAVORITE IN-GAME EVENTS ALL THROUGH APRIL Rakghoul Resurgence on Tatooine: April 7 – 14, 2020 Despite tens of thousands of people dying from an infectious virus ravaging the globe, Bioware thinks that having an event where people purposely infect and kill others is a great idea... Really? Some of us have lost friends to this epidemic, and to promote such an event during this pandemic shows exactly how insensitive and out of touch the Bioware staff is. To all that share my disgust, I implore you to tweet this to all your family and friends. Tell the world what kind of people are running this game.

Sir-steve Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 If you're actually serious.....I'd counter that a Rakghoul event would actually be a good education piece. Lotta people don't seem to get how pandemics work and this is a great way to learn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hadsil Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 If true, I'm glad I finished Tatooine with all my secondary characters. I do not want to deal with nonsense time wasting when playing the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LadyVix Posted April 2, 2020 Author Share Posted April 2, 2020 Such a good troll post... This is a game.. FICTION.. it's not real ! This is a video game. It's not real, and it's supposed to be a fun way to forget about real life for a while. Unfortunately, as I struggle with covid related health issues, and as a friend fights for his life after being infected, this whole damn idea of having fun by infecting and killing others is anything but fun or enjoyable. Enjoy your sick infect and kill event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enjoy your sick infect and kill event. so with your logic, because the game deals with people killing other people, stabbing, blowing them apart, spacing, and other numerous ways, then as this **** happens in real life all the time (except maybe for spacing, that hasn't happened yet, that we know off) BW should just cut it all out, and we should run around...hugging people, giving gifts......anyone remember that episode of the simpsons where marge gets cartoons changed.....

Enjoy your sick infect and kill event. The point is actually to inoculate oneself and prevent the spread of infection, not infect and kill others.

ElZaguero Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 Sigh. The OP and those supporting OP need to just go back to Twitter and vent their false outrage there.

JediQuaker Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 (edited) Bounty contract week: April 21 to April 28 Despite tens of thousands of people dying from gun violence around the globe, Boiware thinks that having an event where people purposefully kill each other is a great idea. Some of us have lost friends to gun violence, and to promote such an event shows how insensitive Bioware is. Be sure to Tweet all your friends about this. 😍🙄🙂 [/sarcasm] Edited April 2, 2020 by JediQuaker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarova Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 I would think, or hope, most people would be able to separate a video game from real life by now. Guess not. You'd think so but in on rare occasions games can be useful in real life. Do you remember the Corrupted Blood Incident from World of Warcraft? It was actually used for real life epidemic/pandemic research. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
