Sex with Snake Aliens
It is indeed retarded but the reasoning in XCOM is that most of the aliens were more or less slaves under the alien leadership but didn't have the balls/brains to rebel themselves. At least it is better than an asspull.
>>729620536Employment is good. Human resources need not be strictly human if we also can have snake ass and snake brains.Like seriously, imagine the whole new paradigm of science, ops, infiltration and plain mundane shit from 6 new functional perspectives. And snake ass.
>>729620536the snek in Chimaera squad being racist against non-earth aliens was funny
Genetically engineered for human men.
It's literally only because humanity couldn't come up with an excuse to keep JUST the snake women
>>729620536The vipers ate humans canonically btw.
>>729620536friends are more fun than enemies.
>>729620536Shit writing.>>729620745I think it's just because America has a standard of not actively destroying enemies after a successful war (US Civil War and then everything after that), so writers only write from that perspective of 'everyone has to just get along because no one actually has that strongly held beliefs".
>>729620536Sex.
>>729620536because I want an alien wife
>>729620536in the case of xcom and half life, it's because the enemy is the slavedrivers at the top of the alien state/organizationin real life in situations like this people were not as generous, but hey, it's a game
>humanity war with the covenant for years>losing would've resulted in total human enslavement or death>we kick their ass and achieve peace>we do nothing to themThey owe us
They had been working with some of the client species since the events of The Bureau.All vipers are Human DNA splices with Snakemen anyway, it's not like they have a true home planet, and Earth has a case for custody.
I think the craziest thing Xcom confirmed was that there were snake girl themed strip/hostess clubs.
>>729620745>most of the aliens were more or less slaves under the alien leadership but didn't have the balls/brains to rebel themselvesMore than that - the aliens were almost certainly under literal mind control 24/7, ADVENT (which also includes the alien troops) pretty much immediately collapses when XCOM blows up the machine running the Elders' global mind control network.>>729621013Torque's just fucking with Whisper, she probably lived off the same nutrient slurry slop the aliens were being fed in Enemy Unknown (which I guess technically has humans in it, but still).
>>729621083This. What they expect the world to look like after liberation day betrays their poor understanding of history. Any faction with both humans and aliens would be tenuously held together by shared goals and shared enemies despite simmering mistrust, and any state of "Getting along" wouldn't happen for centuries.
Snakes? Snakes with tits?
>>729621013I would absolutely shoot that thing in the back at the first opportunity. It is ontologically impossible for me to be on the same side as anything that would seriously consider eating my kind, let alone having actually done it.
>>729620536What does the victor have to fear from the loser?
>>729622278Imagine the tightness on the cloaca tho anon. She's already so used to eating human meat....you know she'll be an expert with yours too...
>>729621013>Eating CanadiansA befitting fate for them. Let see if we could get a few more on that list.
>>729622280Rule of power #15: crush you enemy totallyThe worst obstacle you can set for your future self is a wounded enemy just waiting to take his revenge. If conflict cannot be avoided, then it must be decisive. Never count on the other person being above holding a grudge. When you have hurt someone, you must ensure that they can never hurt you back or else you have earned whatever they will surely do to you later.
>>729622278>It is ontologically impossible for me to be on the same side as anything that would seriously consider eating my kind, let alone having actually done it.Golly gee, guess you'd never side with humans either! Retard.
>>729620536that shit happens irl too but mostly because: >>729620670
>>729622802Didnt work for the gerries, either time. Why would it work in the future?
>>729622391The only thing more deserving of a swift and brutal death than a literal maneater is a metaphorical maneater.
>>729622207To be fair the game describes the post-ADVENT world as being one where humans and aliens are just barely managing to coexist with a whole ton of problems on both sides - the city CS takes place in is supposed to be the model of human-alien integration and it's a complete mess that's only held together by a crack team of special forces soldiers LARPing as police officers, and the members of Chimera Squad itself get along because they were all hand-picked for being unusually tolerant towards aliens/humans. At least that's how the situation is described before the game starts, the in-game depiction of the city doesn't really communicate those ideas very well at all.

>humans go to brutal war against aliens where losing equals human extinction>humans win >make all the aliens into sex slavesWhy is this so uncommon in video game settings?

>>729623110Okay, but then sex with the bodies after right ?
>>729622929I side with humans against cannibal niggers, spics, and polynesiapes. Let me know which of those categories of androphage your swarthy ass belongs to so I can sort you into the right pile, you drooling orc.
>>729623159They didn't world build enough. If that city is so exceptional, they needed to explain why it's exceptional, and what's holding everyone together. They don't realize that ideology isn't unique to the enemy factions, but that all the citizens need to have shared beliefs to keep them together, otherwise all the aliens would fuck off to another part of the planet to build their own city.
>>729620536>>just let the aliens live and even be allies if they apologise>Why is this so common in video game settings?They are sexy and thats enough.
>>729623629It's true.
>>729623629this made my pp twitch, its so over

Is it so wrong to crave a nice countryside domestic life with an eleven foot long snake wife?
>>729623872https://e621.net/posts/2758474?q=viper_%28x-com%29Embrace sex with snussy
>>729620536Its cuckold ideology forcefed to the goys so they internalize that vengeance and vigilantism is badwrong.If you weren't indoctrinated to think like that from as young as possible you'd start to think that maybe violence IS the answer to the world's problems. Which it objectively is, but you're not allowed to think that.
god I fucking love vipers
>>729623952you'd have to set a good chunk of change aside every month for when your wife inevitably snacks on some of the neighbors' livestock

>>729620536Why not? They’re aliens, completely different species. You can learn from their technology and culture to improve human society. You would have to be retarded to go full scorched earth for no reason.
>>729624358
What does snake milk taste like
>>729624223people who say violence is the answer have never experienced true violencesimilar to people who say “be gay do crime” have never actually committed a crime or even been a victim of one
>>729620536We still feel guilty for stealing all of the Americas from a technologically inferior people but not completely butchering them so we write our sci-fi as if even if we were the Indians/Aztecs we'd still have been as "kind" to the remainder of the people we beat.
>>729620536
snex
>>729620745well, there's also the fact they didn't actually win through military strength (because they're outnumbered thousands to one) but through cutting off the head of the snake. there's millions of trained soldier aliens on the planet, XCOM immediately declaring war on them would be a terrible move. you don't want the scattered ADVENT forces going full scorched earth in the face of extermination and nuking the few remaining cities.
>>729620745they were under mind control and the final mission is us breaking the big mind control emitter before taking out a bunch of their avatarsaliens just got booted off of lifetime mind control and and were leaderless
>>729625430>No, no, no, we weren't actually in control of what we were doing it was like the actually bad aliens or whatever.I get that that is the easier way forward if you want to write an alien/human XCOM story but let's not pretend it's a retarded asspull. I don't care if 5% of your consciousness was against what you were doing, this game trained me to trust in the power of the 95%.
need snitties
>>729625717it's not really an asspull if they spend a whole game setting it up
>>729622929Get your faggot ass 'refuses to understand the argument' shit outta here.>Errrrrm you know there are subhuman niggers that eat people right?
>>729625903They didn't spend the whole of XCOM setting up that all the aliens under the BIG BAD ALIEN were actually innocents who didn't want to hurt anyone ever.They described them as already violent species that bowed to a more violent one.Grunts bowing to Elites is the exact same as Thin Men bowing to Muttons.Doesn't redeem the Grunts or the Thin Men.
>>729626069I mean it does redeem them in this specific case. If it's some variety "serve or die" I'm much more lenient with the guys who served.
>>729620536>>just let the aliens live and even be allies if they apologiseUnironically kino.
>>729626069>b-but OLDER GAME didn't do itwho fucking cares, nigger? the entirety of XCOM 2 was spent setting up the idea that the aliens were mind-controlled and this was well before chimera squad was even conceived.>b-but i don't like XCOM 2 so it doesn't count or somethingboo fucking hoo.
>>729626069using halo as a comparison is really dumb broyou know humanity let the covenant species live right?
GOOD END
>>729620536In the OG games, many alien races were genetically and cybernetically engineered to be dependent on the Ethereals. The flavour text says that Mutons would die if their telepathic link with the Ethereals was severed(although captured Mutons don't die, so...), and their reproductive system was removed, so they could only reproduce through cloning. Regardless, forgiving the aliens in 5 years is too much of a stretch, even if they were thralls. XCOM Apocalypse was set hundreds of years after the Alien Wars, and human-alien hybrids (abductee rape babies) were still facing some discrimination.
>>729620536>[human country] goes to war with [other human country]>one country wins>they don't genocide the entire other country afterwardswhy is this so common?
>>729626891Because trade is more profitable than managing a puppet state, and the victor can use courts to settle conflicts without turning them into generational blood feuds. In places where courts fail, you'll find the blood feuds come back.
>>729626891Because at the end of the day we are all humans and the weren't fighting us to anhilate us. They were fighting because their crooked politicians disagree with out crooked politicians. Also because everyone has a camera now and genocide is frowned upon by the international community.
>>729621013Humans and animals are turned into food in tanks full of digestive enzymes. The liquid is then consumed by aliens for sustenance. The ones that lack a digestive system inject it directly into their bloodstream.
>>729626825it's not that much of a stretch honestlycivilians (read: everyone but xcom) were already living alongside aliens in the megacities for nearly twenty years, there are adults who never knew anything else because they were born after the alien invasionand it's not portrayed in the game as some utopian land of forgiveness and friendship, the city is one singular location on the planet where they're trying to see if aliens and humans can actually coexist and it's not even working
>>729621013This isn't proof of anything. She is probably teasing him, and he plausibly believes she could eat him.
>>729627198>when it's humans willingly committing war crimes and bombing civilians, they were just following orders and it's their leaders' fault, they're our fellow men, you can't blame them>but when the ayylmaos are literally mindcontrolled into it by their leaders and forced to obey, we should just genocide them anywaysounds like you just want an excuse for genocide.
>>729624509People who have experienced true violence know that violence in the only answer, even if they say otherwise to keep you pacified.
>>729626309Did it? I've played through the games many times and loved the shit out of XCOM 2. What I took away from it was that it was attempting to lure humans into joyfully joining the xenos. I guess it's fair to assume they did this same tactic against the other xenos to make them come willingly even if they were deceived.>>729626427I don't know shit about Halo lore but aren't the Jackels atleast just straight a shitty species that got to continue to be shitty under their new approved parameters?
>>729627278I don't remember any of this except the humans revealed in tanks at the end of XCOM2, but I took that to mean they were turning them into genetic slurry for the Elders' benefit. Not for cheap food. The only food mention was soilent burger which was just a running gag and reference to soilent green.
>>729627648Fat sneks...
Vorefags need to fuck off. There is nothing in these games about Vipers eating people.
>>729627648>picturized: A viper fed off a single American
I always find Chimera Squad threads funny where people are going 'why didn't they genocide the remaining aliens' as if they didn't play XCom 2 where the whole premise is that you're a mobile resistance group because you can't just sit in one place and build up an army to tackle the Advent.
Total extermination makes sense, but it's boring.
>>729625717one of the first bits of research you unlock hints towards it buddy
>>729627696the skirmishers are explicitly an entire faction of former ADVENT that either broke free themselves or had someone else break them free.XCOM was only able to win the war in the first place because the entire alien force was structured around the ethereals' mind control, and without it their entire army collapsed. their power structure was devoid of any real hierarchy, they had no need for generals or officers or anything of the like because they just controlled everything directly.they don't care at all about their slave caste of soldiers, genemodding them whenever it suits them (thin men) and turning them into horrific abominations of biotech (floaters, archons), and they don't allow them to feel emotions or reproduce except via cloning, why would they allow them free will after all that?
>>729628445It's also extremely unlikely, given the suicidal empathy witnessed in modern society.
>>729628346You're an elite task force because you can only fit so many people on the helicarrier. The whole resistance is a lot bigger, every camp has a small militia and does it's own operations.
>>729628445eh. in the specific circumstances of xcom 2 the most sensible thing to do would be to just give the ayys australia or something and call it a day. most of them are sterilized and will die out on their own within a few decades, no need to risk the lives of civilians by backing the ayys into a corner especially when they already outnumber xcom a thousand to one. there's much bigger threats anyway like the lost and the chryssalids.
>>729621013It’s just bantz. Man, Torque was really one of the few fun parts of that game.>>729625069> cutting off the head of the snakeWhoa, language there, anon
>>729628826>modern societyWhen the Zealots revolted the Romans forced the Jews out of Palestine but they didn't wipe all Jews out. The Spaniards removed Columbus as governor because he was being that horrible to the natives. Total annihilation of your enemies is actually a very rare thing that happens in human history.
>>729628908the resistance camps are very explicitly shit at their jobs and regularly get rolled if not for xcom carrying them, all the retaliation missions show that they just can't do anything by themselves and if not for xcom they all just dieall they can really do is scavenge supplies and connect xcom to actually useful people like scientists and engineers
Xenos are scum and my snake wife agrees.

>>729628790So when the alien snakes ate humans enough to develop a preference for some over the others>>729621013 was it just because of THE BAD ALIEN or are we atleast allowed say that Chimera was really shitty writing for the lore of the games
>>729629720Why do you people care about that fucking line so damn much anyway? It's literally a joke anon, do you not know how to read dialogue between people?
>>729620536Not a problem for the superior EDF!
>>729624336I'd have plenty of motivation to be a high earner so that's not a problem
>>729629720i think you're interpreting a clear joke way too literally without actually having played the game for the context
>>729629720She was literally joking. That's a joke.>>729629873Vorefags are really determined to use anything they can to skew what the game is about.
>>729628826Yeah, humans will pack bond with fucking roombas. How could anybody expect us to be able to unilaterally annihilate a sapient species? We might be able to do it out of neglect, potentially, but active genocide just isn't on the cards.
>>729621013>Canadians>human
>>729629996I really fucking hate vorefags out of every single one of the more furry-esque of fetishes, entirely because they are incapable of hiding their powerlevel for shit and will usually spill it at the most unnecessary of moments.
>>729630234haha...what if instead of vore it was like the original comic with thicc...and by thicc i mean fat...but it was still sneks...hahaha....just a funny little idea...
>>729630386Footfags are really bad at hiding their fetish too>foot anywhere in frame>"HOW DID DEVS GET AWAY WITH THIS???"But at least footfags have a fetish that doesn't result in their own death. Vore is retarded because you have to die to indulge in it. Any fetish involving death is fucked up. It's antithetical to reproduction.
>>729630386vorefags and fatfags are way up there on the shit list.
>>729629873>>729629994>>729629996Shit niggas I'm just talking but I'm glad to know that one poorly written line can still invoke this kind of emotion.So we're all in agreement that it's either a one off line with HUGE world building implications or that snakes with tits learned how to play out multi-level sarcastic jokes?
>>729620536>>729620745What's retarded about it is that every single alien is actually a perfectly functional being that's even capable of millenial writing it seemsLike the ethereals were actually holding them back, the part about them having been engineered and optimized to the point of removing all capabilities for natural communication, reproduction and god knows what else was just a lie or something because Firaxis wanted to make a woke gaze game.
>>729630645vore and cannibalism are two different things
>>729630645Feetfags are kind of a special case, because usually they're joked about in that exact manner, and have been so for the longest time now that they've started to believe that people don't actually mind them, so they think that revealing their powerlevel won't get any weird looks because everyone who makes or enjoys jokes of it must be either into it or does not care about it.
>>729630645>Vore is retarded because you have to die to indulge in it. Any fetish involving death is fucked up. It's antithetical to reproduction.There is literally more non-lethal vore pictures out there, than lethal ones.
>>729631249It's how you know it's a truly awful fetish even if practised by 40% of the blah blah blah.Everyone was allowed to call Mila Kunis hot as fuck even when she was 16 because whatever that is called goes through ebbs and flows of being acceptable.At any point in history going on about a hot woman's feet does and should get you called out for being a fucking freak.
>>729631313I like vore under fair weather, but overwhelmingly the "Excuses" for it not to be snuff all feel unsatisfying. Regurgitation, reformation, and other tropes to save their character's lives all feel like they betray what vore is about, or are just contrived and hard to take seriously.
>>729631441The vast majority of vorephiles are interested in the eating and domination aspects, not the death aspects.Hence you get stuff like living-inflatables voring characters.How do you propose a fucking pool toy 'killing' a person by eating them?
>>729625717It's hilarious watching you flounder at this legitimate plot development while also saying "the nazis had to gun down innocent people and burn them alive because they were just doing their jobs" any time your personal beliefs come up.
>>729631536With a pool toy pred, the best options are that the prey gets turned into gas, pressurizing the pred's body, or gets turned into another inflatable that the pred spits out later.That's a pretty distant edge case, I don't think I've ever seen any inflatable vore before. Don't doubt that it's out there, but it's not as useful to talk about.
>>72963144199% of vorefag images portray it in a way that would kill the person/thing doing the vore before the person/thing getting vored if you took it seriouslyUnbelievability is pretty cemented in the fetish as a whole outside of few cases
>>729631536animate_inanimate is the strangest tag to be associated with vore
>>729630941The specifics of both are so minorly different>ERM you need to be the same species to be a cannibal ERM vore is about being alive (at first)fuck off, it's all gross.>>729631313"Non-lethal" vore is the exception. I've seen e enough vore to know those are just outliers. It's fucking weird and gross and most vorefags are into digestion, so don't even bother with your technicalities.
>>729631437I'll sum it up for you with a greentext.>feetfags are widely mocked by literally everyone everywhere throughout all of history>this leads feetfags to start joking about it too>feetfags start joking about it so much they lose sense of who's who>cut to Now Days™ where they think their fetish is actually joked about only by their fellows, so they think that revealing their powerlevel with jokes is bound to only be shared between them, the feetfags
>>729631564I'm just here talking X-COM anon. If you want I can just describe how fucking cool it feels blowing up an enemies cover with one character then following it up with an absolute obliteration from my Reaper.

Unrelenting tailjob
>>729632167This is such disingenuous posting. Vore IMPLIES death in 99% of situations. Why would someone inside a stomach escape later? Fuck off, you can't gaslight me.
>>729631704>With a pool toy pred, the best options are that the prey gets turned into gas, pressurizing the pred's body, or gets turned into another inflatable that the pred spits out later.That never fucking happens, in the vast majority of vore pictures the nigga is just stuck in the stomach with an ambiguous ending, or is just spat out, reincarnated harmlessly, etc
>>729632069Pretty much, they just wouldn't be as deprecating, but the rest is entirely correct on how they act.
>>729632218>This is such disingenuous posting. Vore IMPLIES death in 99% of situations. Why would someone inside a stomach escape later? Fuck off, you can't gaslight me.Vore doesn't mean shit, it just means somebody has been swallowed. Do you think that flattening fetishists sincerely think that every paper-thin character is outright dead?
>>729632219>stuck in the stomach with an ambiguous ending, or is just spat out, reincarnated harmlessly,Yeah, I don't like those. They're all lame.>etcThat's what I want to talk about.
>>729632274Nta but tell me what happens after you swallow food anon.
>>729632414Well when I am a 30 foot tall dragon woman with tits larger than my own head, and I swallow a 3 foot tall mouse guy who has ambiguous magical powers, the little bastard always survives because he teleports out of my stomach, or I spit him out, or he just sits in there forever with no harm, or...And so on. Retard.What do you think happens to characters turned into inflatables, do they 'die' because they're just rubber now?
>>729620536Chimera Squad isn't cannon.
>>729621375How is that working out for whites?
>>729632565I expected the reply to be a little less pathetic, but regardless, vore doesn't have that "post-vore" scene you described in which the vored escapes from the vorer's stomach, not usually, at least.
>>729620536It's the ultimate display of dominance, duhThey as a species now owe their entire existence to the fact that you couldn't be fucked finishing the job>>729620787She was too based for that game

>>729632850Anon I never fucking said any of that.
>>729632936You're gross, why the fuck do you want characters to die?
>>729632968You're a faggot who wants characters to be eaten alive, don't try to smear me just because you are a retard.
>>729623407yeah but first fight her boyfriend
>>729633034You're a faggot who wants characters to die in fiction in horrific ways, the hell is wrong with you?
>>729633074You see anon, this is the reason nobody likes vorefags like you, because you and the rest get so defensive over the slightest of things done to a shitty little fetish that you have these spergouts over others and drag literally everyone down.
>>729620536i remember back in xcom eu where the aliens were all just mindless genetically engineered meatbots who couldn't think for themselves, which was the entire reason the ethereals were so focused on conquering humanity, becasue they were pretty unique in not being completely retarded.then they shat all over that after xcom 2 and made everyone get together and coexist with the (now intelligent?) aliens that killed a significant portion of the entire human race and turned their corpses into psionic crack for the elders
>>729633256>Accuses someone of being a snuff-fag>Then gets uppity when they call you out for being a retard for making such a dumb accusation on an anonymous imageboard
>>729632228I entered into an Xcom thread about Snake Titties and I left knowing how a footfags mind works.This wasn't a good thread.
>>729633334Once again, I have not spoken of snuff a single time, you just keep bringing it up to smear me and thus invalidate my words.Again, this is the reason nobody wants a vorefag near them.
>>729631536That's the reason for soft vs hard vore. I feel like ritualistic should be a category as well because while it does zero shit to me erotically I find the idea of ritualistic cannibalism narratively cool. Like I think many can accept the idea of eating the heart to gain its strength. This isn't a "haha unless....." because I'm a softie that doesn't even find proximity violence (Kill someone then fuck someone) hot, it's just cool in that narrative sense. Proximity violence is actually insanely popular for women as a fetish though holy shit.
>>729620536I kinda like it with XCOM because most of the aliens are enslaved genetic experiments from past invasions, mankind itself slated to join their roster. You adopt all this alien technology - mechanical and biological - to even the playing field so it makes sense that eventually there's going to be a way to liberate the species the Ethereals twisted. By pumping them full of human men genetic material. Anyway Chimera Squad took that reasonable conclusion and ruined it for everyone by being the extremely campy and kitsch kind of gay instead of the militaristic and broody kind of gay.
>>729633415You keep accusing people of being snuff-fags because they're talking about non-snuff fetishes.You're projecting you fucking weirdo.
>>729633343I blame vorefags trying to shift discussion to their shitty fetish, oh how I wish the hmofachads had found this thread over them.
>>729629887Good god they look just like us
>>729633531Do tell me, where did I try to pass you off as a snufffag, huh?And no, me saying the artists are too lazy to add a scene of the bored escaping isn't calling your shit fetish snuff.
>>729633649vored*
>>729633343I think I was the first anon to mention feet, so sorry about that. But even if I didn't, you'd be kneedeep in this vore cope.

>>729633074Believing vore results in death is not about "want." It's about basic-ass observation of what the situation implies. This is why people called you disingenuous, btw
>>729633823He'll cope about it with his:>b-buh my plastic tferino THOUGHAnd I'll immediately shut that down right now because tf is, regardless of how it is presented, magical in it's execution, so I find it much more believable for a human turned into a pool toy to still be conscious and sentient than a person getting eaten to survive.
Can any of the aliens even reproduce naturally?
>>729634040I'd bet that none of them can, but as earth's gene modifying capabilities expand from reverse engineering elder tech, a lot of them will fix that. Vipers are genetically similar to humans already, so they probably could get functioning organs just by splicing some more human dna. Other species may have more difficulties, and may have to depend on looted cloning tech for awhile before they can fix their genome.
>>729634040Chryssalids don’t seem to have any trouble :)>>729633770God damn, that is one CUTE snekky.
>>729633823non-fatal vore is for pussies, anyway. if it doesn't have at least heavily implied digestion you can hardly call it vore.god I wish I didn't have this fetish
>>729634040Seeing as the vipers have a male variant in the dlc, I don't really see a reason why they wouldn't be able to.
>>729634040vipers can because there's ads for incubators and shit in chimera squad. not sure on the rest of em. mutons/berserkers maybe, sectoids probably not, archons definitely not. gatekeepers, who the fuck even knows.
>>729620536because genociding several slave races who had even less say in the matter then we did is moraly wrong. Especially considering the Elders fully intended to add humans to their slave army, if things played out differently we would be in their shoes. They have no reason to be loyal to their dead masters and are marooned here. Granted outside of Torque Chimera Squad was a pretty contrived and flat game but I believe it got that aspect right.
>>729630790>HUGE world building implicationsAnon they all ate people, they have tanks full of mulched nutrients they turn captured humans into.They're not playing into your retarded loser fetish at all.
>>729634731What? I thought the whole thing was that there was only one and he died
>>729620536Like 4 out of 6 of the races the etherals have captured are barely functioning as a species.What, do you think you're gonna be able to reason with a chrysalid? A muton?The only ones which are "safe" are the ones we know nothing about behaviorally like the vipers or the sectopods (yes they were a conquered "species" like the rest) and maybe sectoids but like mutons and floaters they are so different that peaceful coexistence is impossible.
>>729635325well the vipers are reproducing with something and even XCOM isn't going to go so far as to say it's humans. so either it's parthenogenesis or somebody made another viper king.
>>729635487>and even XCOM isn't going to go so far as to say it's humansAre you sure? It's canon that they're fucking, at least
>>729635325Doesn't really matter much whether he's the only one of if others exist, as his existence proves that the vipers can indeed reproduce.
>>729635325I am pretty sure with all the gene tech lying around they probably grabbed what was left of him and cloned him.
>>729635531yeah, but "some people would have sex with aliens" is a true-to-life statement while the idea of reproductive compatibility is an extremely stupid idea. we can't even make babies with apes that share 99.8% of our DNA let alone aliens that share 0% of it.
>>729635598Well we can't. I bet if XCOM scientists wanted to impregnate gorillas they could make it happen
>>729620536Nah, it's was the right direction for the setting. Human "won" against the advent by breaking the elders mind control over the foot soldiers. They couldn't win against advent by direct ground war due to sheer number and tech diff. If Human tries to "clean up" the left over aliens by force, they would just lose even more. However, the direction they went with for chimera was shit though. The writing for the aliens' personality and interactions are garbage. The relationship should be similiar to something like elite and human in Halo, not some hipster zoomers in a tech office / coffee shop in Settle.
>>729635703could they impregnate a gorilla? maybebut impregnating a viper would be like impregnating a mushroomit's just not happening bro
>>729635721the concept of chimera squad is great on the surgace, exploring the aftermath of the invasion and rebuilding society while trying to avoid a full-on race war with no winners. but the execution is fucking abysmal.shame, really.
>>729635859I will MAKE it happen
Perhaps for the sake of productivity it is a good thing titty snake aliens don't exist, otherwise I doubt I'd be getting much done besides attempting to fuck snussy. Truly, quite the conundrum indeed.
>>729635959I actually somewhat like the QoL change to the gameplay and how the game handle mechanically. The "base building and management" were too streamlined and funneled toward like handful of options that realistically can clear a run. The writing and characters were such massive misses though. At least they are self aware of how popular a female viper would be and give us Torque, who is both extremely strong character gameplay-wise and a somewhat serviceable personality and story.
>>729635859A major point in XCOM 2 is the use of human DNA to enhance the alien species, explaining a lot of their differences from the first game. Could you stick your dick in a viper and make her pregnant by default? Well, no, if all else was equal. But elders were doing all kinds of genetic fuckery, so since they can do shit like make viper eggs in labs, they could probably alter vipers to accept human DNA.
>>729636249they make a point of saying that vipers were made into thin men with human DNA genemodding, and that the viper form is their natural state. and again, sharing some scattered strands of DNA doesn't mean anything. we share nearly 100% of our DNA with our primate brethren and we're not sexually compatible with them whatsoever.
>>729636105If trying to fuck human pussy drove all human advancement through the ages, I don't see how this would negatively impact us.
>>729635959I’m still holding out hope that the stars will align and a proper sequel will arrive. More obscure series have come back from the abyss. Hell, even Shenmue returned even though it went back to the shadow realm.>>729636105Yeah, if they were real I’d probably go and check out one of those Viper clubs from Chimera Squad, and I have zero interest in going to any such establish in our reality.
>>729636325>sharing some scattered strands of DNA doesn't mean anything.Agreed. I wasn't arguing that meant complete genetic compatibility. Obviously not. But if you can force a square block in a circle hole and do literally anything you want with human DNA using their tech, a very obvious patch to the viper fertility problem is to allow human impregnation. This seems like something they'd canonically explain.
I only want an XCOM 3 if they bring back vipers and have them date human men. None of that wokescold "diversity is our strength" messaging. Just the white man's ideal world.
>>729636415but the elders wouldn't have done that because they wanted to control the population, and at the time of chimera squad there are extremely high tensions between humans and aliens overall. no viper is going to let humans genemod her when they're still practically at each other's throats and the entire city is a failing experiment to see if they can even coexist in the first place.maybe if the game was hundreds of years after the war like apocalypse you could argue that there was genemodding to be human-compatible for the sake of continuing the species, but it's simply not going to happen in the chimera squad timeframe of five years. i'd sooner expect that they modded themselves to reproduce with sectoids.
>>729636727>but the elders wouldn't have done that because they wanted to control the populationI know that. But you need to remember, this tech is now in human hands with the elders' defeat. I'm talking about patching out the elders' own intentional limitations.>no viper is going to let humans genemod her when they're still practically at each other's throats Anon, if they're literally infertile, what choice do they have? Things can't get worse for them when they can't even reproduce without humans making more eggs using elder labs.
>>729622278I think she's just teasing.
>>729636727Suppose for a moment you're among the humans who now control alien tech and have alien races on your planet. Do you:A. Genetically alter them so that their survival as a species depends on humanity surviving alongside them?orB. Alter them to be genetically compatible with another hostile alien species so that they can reproduce in perpetuity, and enable them to murder every last human with no consequence to them as a species?
Human on Viper impregnation?
>>729637031Exactly. The only real option is to make their continued existence depend on human semen.
>>729637031and the aliens will just let humans (who they're on the verge of a race war with) have free rein to genetically alter their bodies freely, because...?
>>729637304They're literally snakes lmao
>>729637304Humans literally took back the planet at the end of XCOM 2. Our numbers are far superior when the general populace became aware of their fuckery. What choice do they have?
>>729637379secondaries are so exhausting. crawl on back to your little goon cave until you've actually played the game.
>>729637429I literally beat the game. Aliens surrendered, and only once Chimera Squad happens is it portrayed like a tense ceasefire and not a complete alien loss. What the fuck is wrong with that statement? Use your words now, not just posturing as a "true fan."
>>729637508i really just can't tell if this is ragebait or just plain mental retardation. probably the latter since your posts read like a salty HFYnigger.
>>729637613No answer. Yeah, that's what I thought. Scurry back to your hole, "true fan."
>>729637656it's not my job to spoonfeed you the story when the game repeatedly beats you over the head with it. god, there's nothing worse than secondaries acting like they know literally anything at all about the source material.
>>729637740It's also evidently your job not to know how what I said was wrong, since you can't contend with it. Bet you felt like a real big man mouthing off like that tho
>>729637740i used to think "media literacy" was just a buzzword but there really are people who actually sit down and play a 30 hour game and completely miss major aspects of it.
>>729620536If you're pissed about humanity not genociding hostile aliens, I know just the guy for you.>"I'm not interested in baby steps. Our enemy isn't going to wait for us to catch up. What I want from you is the most devastating force you can possibly imagine, placed in hands of our soldiers today."
>>729637856XCOM 2 came out in fucking 2016. Do you really have every aspect of these plots committed to memory? Most people live their lives and this shit is a blip on their timeline, and then they play the next game in their library. They don't write their own fanfictions and catalog lore with essays about the socio-economics of their universe. But what's really pathetic is coming into a thread discussing a game and then refuse to discuss the topic.
>>729638019yeah, it came out in 2016. i last played it in 2020, and i still very clearly remember that XCOM wasn't capable of directly fighting the aliens due to their vastly superior numbers and tech so they had to wage a guerilla war. that was the entire premise of the fucking game, so congrats on being unironically media illiterate and somehow missing that.
>>729638125You're mixing up "XCOM" with "humanity." XCOM was small. Humanity was not. That's why broadcasting the atrocities to the general public was their win condition (in addition to snuffing the Elder leadership and their defenders)Thanks for finally tipping your hand so I could prove you wrong.
>>729638183>That's why broadcasting the atrocities to the general public was their win conditiondidn't play the fucking game award.
>>729638232lol, that's literally the ending cinematic. The Advent fucker is on stage, and they show a montage of all the terrible things the Elder did behind humanities back. Nice last attempt at gaslighting though. Too bad I remember the game better than you do.
>>729638183>broadcasting the atrocities to the general public was their win conditionand what they broadcast is the first terror attack on the resistance basewhich happens right after the early tutorial missionsso why dont they just go broadcast that immediately afterwards and just win the war? its not like the advent network tower is particularly hidden or well-defended
>>729624625Classic. Boobs should be edited to be much bigger though.
>>729638280>lol, that's literally the ending cinematiclooked up the ending cutscene on youtube award. by all means, keep digging yourself deeper.
>>729638406I beat the game twice. Once on the vanilla game, and once on WotC. I don't care if you don't believe me, or more likely lie that you don't because you just want to argue more.
>>729638505i totally believe that you played the game. i also believe that you immediately forgot everything that happened even while playing it, but still feel the need to pretend otherwise because you have an extremely low IQ and can't handle being wrong.
>>729638583the absolute irony of saying someone else can't handle being wrong and arguing tooth and nail and can't even concede after you were proven wrong. You are so mad
>>729638183>>729638280>>729638505>>729638704hey fag can you explain why they didn't just win the war instantly when they had the chance like in >>729638369
>>729620930During the primary invasion they were all modified into grotesque Agent Smiths. The humans had very little of an idea they were dealing with a race of sexy snakes during the first generation of integration.
>>729638704the funny part is that i know i'm right since i actually played the game and remember it due to having an IQ above room temperature, so all you're doing is just dancing like the little monkey you are. keep at it, little guy. maybe one day you'll actually stick a couple brain cells together and be smart enough to enter preschool.
Can you two get a room already, christ
>>729621013I love my alien, beautiful, racist, man eating, dumb wife
>>729620745Weren't most of them genetically fucked with to better serve their new masters' purposes as fodder soldiers, too?
>>729624282I kinda wanna redownload xcom, I loved bonding my soldiers with vipers (including the girls too) but I'm not sure if I want to bother with downloading 100+ gigs
>>729638874no, it's funnier to watch him have a melty over being called a secondary. at any moment i could just tell him exactly why he's wrong but that would spoil the fun.
>>729620536The same reason why your president wants to deport all mexicans but built his empire on cheap mexican labor
>>729638920You clearly are deepthroating the hook right now.
>>729638771Hey can you explain why allowing humans to rebel brought about a swift end to the alien wars? >B-BUT ALIENS OUTNUMBER HOOMANSThen why, oh why, did they overpower armed advent troopers with mere planks with nails in them?For the record I'm not interested in the "mind control" sub-plot. This argument began here:>>729637379>>729637429Anon started arguing with me when I contended humans have superior numbers, and then threw a bitchfit when the end was literally about humans overrunning them.
>>729638961you're clearly very low-level if you don't understand what's going on here. take a few lessons and get back to me.
>>729638834That is funny. Because you're so misguided you had to hold your cards to your chest, and the moment you stopped you were proven wrong. But keep going hard on the gaslighting. Maybe you even convinced yourself.
>>729638963yeah so anon was right and you didnt actually play the gamexcom won because the entire thing relied on alien mind control not because of muh superior numbersthe final mission is literally you disabling their mind control so the army falls apartif they just broadcasted the footage and rallied humanity they would get wiped out instantly as the aliens cut their losses and glassed the planet>so why can't they round up all the aliens afterwardsyou try rounding up millions of supersoldiers with hyper-advanced tech with a few hundred dudes and a bunch of civvies with no training or experience and get back to me>but what about advent trooper in ending cinematic??? why they not all die???because they're just ugly humans and they surrendered without a fight, they're not even fucking aliens in the first place>>729638920sorry bro you need to shut up
>>729639024Uh oh, anon found another post to pretend he knows the real scoop on. Expect him to tell you nothing for 10 posts and pretend there's some deep cut only he knows.
>>729639225spoilsport.
>>729639225>For the record I'm not interested in the "mind control" sub-plot.>spends an entire post explaining the mind control sub-plot
>>729639378>what's 2+2?>and don't give me 4, give me a proper answersorry bro you can't bullshit your way out of this one
>>729639395If mind control was the only factor, why were advent troopers overwhelmed by people wielding planks? Can an advent trooper only pull the trigger if an elder is remote controlling him?
How come there's no pairing with ADVENT Purifiers? Those two always spawn together and he explodes all over her.
If you're in a post-war world and on the third date with a cute Sectoid and you just kissed her on her doorstep, what's the proper way to ask to be invited in and tell her you want her to use her superior psionic abilities to fuck your brain up real good?
>>729639475Advent troops aren't very sexy. Their head is like a minecraft block.
>>729639441because they use mag weaponswhen you research mag weapons you learn that the ones the aliens use are dna locked and connect to a remote database to verify the userso what happens when the database is down because you blew up all the leadership?oh yeah they literally can't pull the fucking trigger
Chimera Squad didn't strike me as very canonical regardless of what they say.
>>729639441>Can an advent trooper only pull the trigger if an elder is remote controlling him?no stake in this slapfight, but given how intense the mind control is i genuinely wouldn't be surprised if this was the case. i recall there being tidbits from the skirmishers (i.e. former advent troopers) about how fresh ones have to actually learn how to fight without the mind control telling them everything to do.
>>729639529Was that explained or are you extrapolating? That's so "Independence day" where literally every alien ship/gun is wired together. A fucking gun needing cloud verification. That feels way too convenient.
>>729639635Forget the guns, Advent's brains are all wired together.
>>729639635like i said it's in the research notes about mag weaponsis it contrived? yes but so is the whole "army of a couple hundred can destabilize an alien regime because their entire operation relied on like 5 psychic dudes and they kept them all in one room"and so is the commander being kept and then rescued instead of just being executed or hooked up like a brain in a jar or whateveri could go on but i wont
>>729639621The ADVENT officers exist as beacons that sort out and clarify the mind control. It's a whole thing.
>>729639635>>729639706tbf if you were remotely controlling your armies to assault inferior planets, would you want them to be able to pick up and use your advanced weapons when they manage to kill your disposable mutants?having a "fuck you, buddy" system built in like a Judge Dredd gun is just good business sense
>>729639798I can buy some kind of DNA lock (at least, when plot necessitates it) but needing it to maintain constant connection to a remote server is where I get skeptical. Imagine... facing off with rebel scum, but you're too deep under a concrete structure and lose signal.
Would you join?
>>729639923Didn't it turn out that instead of just being normal humans trained to fight, they were genetically recombined soldiers under their masks? Like, all the advent volunteers were turned into soup to make these guys?If so, I'm gonna say "no."
>>729639887That would explain how humanity was able to keep resistance cells.>Run underground>Advent runs after>They all die because their guns stop working>Advent no longer run into the tunnels allowing human resistance to grow
>>729639798yeah that only backfires if you actually lose which they weren't exactly planning on>>729639887i doubt it was constant, probably the kind of thing where it just checks in every so oftenmight also just work through the psionic network since they have that whole thing set up and connected to every single unitbut that's all extrapolating since they don't give it much detail
>>729630790>poorly written*poorly understoodBy you.
>>729639981Seems really stupid when you think about it.What if your relative or friend joined up and then when you start asking they start playing stupid.With how many people that would've been disappeared you would have an instant rebellion on your hands.I know why they did it but it feels like it would be a smarter world building to just have it be a metro-cop situation and they're actually just normal human soldiers with some gene editing and cybernetics as they get higher up.Now true the etherals were grabbing people left and right and had these huge facilities where they dumped people into soup tanks to make the avatars but that's another thing for another time.
>>729639986That would be interesting lore, if it was intended. I doubt they thought that hard about it though.
>>729639981yeah they were all just heavily genemodded clones aside from a few propaganda squads
>>729634731>the vipers have a male variantNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>729640191oh no, he's hot!
>>729634778>if things played out differently we would be in their shoesThen we would deserve to be genocided. That's my opinion and I'm not sorry. Kill the snake bastards NOW.
>>729640121It is a pretty big plot hole for those reasons, yeah.
>>729624408Death
I don't understand why XCOM threads are always about sex.
>>729640330I do wish people would post more webms.
>>729624408Venom generally tastes like liquid smoke due to the proteins.
>>729635591This is why you should incinerate him instead of make him into a tuxedo. No more viper males. Females only. Forever.
>>729640121i'm sure they had a good amount of metro cop advent soldiers as propaganda to point to.>hey this is jimmy from city 14 and i LOVE being an advent trooper! don't you want to be like me?and of course they're a tyrannical dictatorship so people aren't going to ask questions or spread rumors for fear of getting disappeared.
>>729640301

>>729640235Looks like a World of Warcraft NPC.
>>729640330Really? I do.
>>729629512>>729629621This sequel was so dumb.Whole main cast was like a bunch of neutered teenagers.
>>729640360I've seen anime attacks like this.
>>729640461notice how a lot of modern stuff has writing like that?at least torque was okay
>>729640360best i can do is a screenshot
>>7296404612020 was a bad year. I think feminist blue hairs and shitty MCU wannabe writers in game companies hit critical mass around then.
>>729640373They could already jam human dna into an alien. Grabbing existing dna from a corpse is easier but they could probably just fix up a male from the females.
>>729640553I prefer not to think about the possibility.
>>729640524That's when you plasma grenade + plasma grenade and beat the entire mission in one go.
>>729640489
>>729640461Unironically how WOULD you write a diverse cast of aliens living in a peace keeping force together?Hard mode: No racism. Lawsuits cost money.
>>729640615plasma grenade? bro, your blaster launcher?
>>729640623>Hard mode: No racism.Tell that to Torque.
what were vipers like on their homeworld before being made into thin men and sneople(snake people)?
>>729640698they were probably always sneoplejust boobless sneople before the human dna
>>729640461It's just like nu-/v/, the sequel to /v/.
>>729640612Look buddy to have cute snake wife(snaife) who wants human penis you gotta have cute snake couples doing the snake hug. Not only so you can have a lot of snake wives (snaives) but also to create an attractive alternative to stand out of the snake norm.Otherwise you just end up with most of them being lesbos and nobody but boomers want that.
>>729622193My problem with the mind control thing is that one of the factions in war of the chosen is literally just ADVENT soldiers that just stopped following orders
>>729640698We were a fiery but mostly peaceful race living in our own autonomous zone.
>>729640698Probably the same, but maybe no breastplate armor.
>>729640683She was safe-edgy racism. She never went anywhere but "oh you're FOREIGN huh?"
>>729640767Bold of you to assume they don't want their snussy filled. Men cuck human lesbians all the time, you know. Or so I'm told, and choose to believe. I don't need snake men under any conditions when lab-grown women suit our needs just fine.
>>729640698They are described as intelligent and loyal but lacking creativity.So just imagine a world run by china. Endless fields of peasant snake people, Enlightened bureaucracy out of the ass that has been going so far back that it's become the state religion. Eating fried mice with chopsticks.
