Lae’zel and Shadowheart can be mean sometimes, and it’s okay to embrace women in video games like them.

    SH is a whiny little child. An evil whiny little child, but still.

    Lae’zel, well, that’s a different story.

      I look at it like she’s my friend who is only getting to see the world outside her cult’s compound for the first time. Her moral core is so obviously opposite what dedicated Shar worship would imply, despite her constant odes to nihilism. Give the girl a chance, and she can blossom, but I was kinda too off put by her self pitying dogma to want to date her. I find it a bit ironic she’s the fan-favorite romance character, but most people anecdotally consider her shallow and “mean.” I feel like that says a lot about GameRs.

      Lae’zel for the win though. T’CHK.
