I think you miss spelled Strong as he would still fit your idea of the kind of masculinity that somehow the game is lacking. As he is still a rugged masculine looking Quinestri who has a wife and loves cookies but feels that just liking cookies makes himself be too soft and weak. Vs Iron Bull who would really only would check off the aesthetics box. Since he's a pansexual switch of a softy when it comes to those he really cares about. I mean heck the guy even allows a person who wouldn't normally be allowed to be part of his group due to gender and their personality. Yet the fact that that character pulls their weight and is good at their job they allow to stay around. Which Cullen are we talking about? The one who thinks your a hallucination in Origins, the one in DA2 that goes most of the game not wanting to admit that their superior is going a bit far and later has gone crazy? Or the Cullen in Inquisition who is still struggling with what went down in DA2 until your Inquisitor has a few heart to hearts with the guy?

Anyway just because people disagree with your views doesn't mean that they don't want the game to succeed or to do better or that they're new fans to the series. Or that they might be bandwagoning. As my self and a few others have pointed out we have also been fans of the series for years and of XIV. That we have also played other games and have understandings of some of the themes the series over the years have imparted. One of those being the power of friendship, of bonds people make with another along a long trek to defeat a great evil or to try and correct a great wrong. They and myself are just don't feel that we're ten minutes out from the Titanic hitting the iceberg and need a dire course correction or the game will end up like said ship. So it would be nice if you'd stop treating people like most guys treat women in fandoms as some kind of fake fans and need to have read something like the Journey to the West from start to finish while also giving very precise details of what a character said in book two, in chapter 10, 7th paragraph down, second sentence in. In order to pass some arbitrary test.

Yes the OP gets similar treatment, but they get it due to bring up things that can be pointed out as a nitpick or doesn't get that Krile's whm outfit is a nod to the Devout outfit which is itself a callback. Which is another thing the series loves to do. Anyway if Krile is to get more time in the spot light I hope she gets better character development than she has gotten so far.
