The Yuuzhan Vong story arc in the old Star Wars Expanded Universe wasn't exactly great, and the "nice space vampires" trend-chasing trash that followed was pretty bad, but what a lot of people don't seem to remember, and what I only remembered just now, was that the early villain figure in the Vong arc was some angry Twi'lek lady that was leading what was called the "Diversity Alliance" and was actually an asset of the Vong. Basically, space SJW that wants space diversity is actually a space religious terrorist asset. :sus-torment:

    Franchise bloat giving writers brain poison trying to out-twist every previous story beat and raising the stakes all the time so theres always one much bigger villain, or *gasp*, the good innocent victimised guys are now evil this is so dramatic!

      It works for Blizzard's "omg corruption lol cthulu too I guess" shitty storytelling that's been celebrated for decades. :disgost:

        I thought people have hated WoW's storytelling since Cataclysm

        That corruption is just one of the writers poorly disguised mind control fetishes.
