What are the worst video game writers.
we've already had threads on the best, but who the fuck are the worst? Like the most incompetent, misguided, or heavy-handed of the writers in the industry.
Like in lieu of names what are some of the companies that produce the most shit-tier of stories consistently too. Examples are appreciated.

Some fat neckbeard.
Question is... Why is Metzen a shit?

Because he's not a writer. He's a dev who got promoted to a position were he could start forcing his shitty fanfiction onto their games and no one could do anything about it.
Modern DA team.

Wasn't he like personally handed control over by the original Warcraft lore-dude?
Didn't he write like Brood War or something. I mean if he did that I can't consider him the shittiest because he had a hand in Brood War. But then again WoW is some of the worst written fantasy I've seen in vidya, but I have no clue how much that's status quo or Metzen.

Maybe DA2 but Inquisition was the same snappy, generic fantasy as Origins. if anything it's the best written modern Bioware game.

Emil Pagliarulo, lead writer for Fallout 3 and 4.

lol what the fucking are you talking about

Because Blizzard is shit and Metzen is a rock dad loser.

I remember FO 3 & 4 being dull but were they really that offensively bad?
>>331363661
I mean he memes a bunch and makes random gay shit, but BL2 was just a standard vidya story with a few plotholes and randumb humor.

>Generic fantasy
>Best writen
DA2 was the best storywise, and even it had a lot of faults. DA:O and DA:I were both babbys first D&D game. The DA games have never had strong stories. It's the characters in them which have helped make and keep them popular.

Well it makes sense now.

didn't she write the Dwarf commoner origin in DA1? I didn't think that was bad. I mean she has shit opinions on how to handle gameplay and her comic thing is apparently pretty meh, but I don't think it's the worst.

I just found DA2 too mishandled to call it the best. generic but functional in DA1 just wins out compared to all the reactive bullshit I had to put up with in DA2.
