We need to talk: Why roleplaying is not just an exercise of creativity and why game developers shouldn’t take stance on drama.

Elder Scrolls Online is one of the most popular MMORPGs. Personally, I have been with them since beta. Recently my trust in developers was slightly shaken when loremaster Leamon Tuttle took a stance to a player complaining her roleplaying character wasn’t approved in the guild. The player in question shows a photoshopped screenshot, where her idea was laughed at. While the behavior was sub-optimal, the actual timing of the topic is dubious. Original discussion took place in March 2021 and Twitter revelation in October 2021. Note: I’m not going to post a player complaint and the attached picture as it contains player usernames and is not something that should be given time or validity.
