Same. Dunno why the downvotes.
I didn't downvote but I disagree. It is nice to be able to roleplay your own character but I also like having well written established characters
They don't have to be mutually exclusive. Mass Effect worked.
If we're following rediquette, (if such a thing still exists or can even be applied to Lemmy) downvotes shouldn't be used on things you disagree with.
Over time the concept of the downvote lost its meaning, even on Reddit (and that happened a while ago).
Sadly most people just downvote when they don’t like what you’ve said, not if it’s factually incorrect or misinformation etc.
