>XCOM spiritual successor by ex-Firaxis devs>Release in less than a week>zero hypeWhat went wrong?
It's a dead franchise and people don't like that type of gameplay.
nobody gives a fuck about your character driven dilation fest make xcom 3 or fuck off
>>745965548>XCOM with focus on story with Star Wars licenceIt could and should be good.
>>745965548They/them tranny protag
>>745965634>>745965695FP&SPBP
>>745965548i have it on my wishlist , what more do you want me to do?
I feel like it will be good, even close to great, but there will beat least one thing Yidsney obligated be included that will derail the whole thing beyond repair
>>745965548>XCOM spiritual successorOnly serious autists are into those type of games, I don't even enjoy "tactics" types of games, personally, and I definitely don't care about one wearing the skin suit of a dead franchise.It's going to be impressive when it releases and the Star Wars normies they're hoping play it entirely ignore it since it's not a traditional first/third person action game.
>>745965695The main character can be killed off and the game can be played with nameless mooks
>>745965695wouldn't it be a damn shame if we made something else instead of xcom 3?
>>745965634There's some hype for the Star Wars Racing game, compared to some franchises(Star Trek), Star Wars is hardly dead
>>745965898Midnight Suns was good. It only got hated because it wasn't Xcom.
>>745965548>zero hypeBecause it has 0 advertisementLike I had 0 idea it's this close to being released already
>>745965634>dead franchiseNot at all. Battlefront 2 has massive numbers till date.>people don't like that type of gameplayFalse again. Turn based strategy games are popular.
>>745965959It was a card based roguelike game. It was ass.
>>745965878it's really not, but selling it as such is the easiest way for people to understand what the game is. this is very much a story-centric game, but you can apparently create generic mooks if you lose those important companion characters. which people will save scum to avoid happening, like they do in every fucking game where it's a game feature.
>>745965548Why would there be hype for an XCOM game?It clearly isn't a "hype" genre. People who like it will pick it up and play it if it's good. There's nothing to be hyped about. This isn't some blockbuster release. If it's good it's good. If not it's not. No reason to get excited
>>745965548>this is a female jedi you can romanceKinda ... hot?
>>745965959fuck no, but I think they're taking lessons on what to improve on for the story aspect of zero company
>StarslopGrow up.
>>745966180That's female??
>>745965548The Star Wars series went out of its way to kill all interest in Star Wars. Star Trek did the same thing.
>no gungans>no toydarians>no besalisk>no dugNo buy.
>>745965548the protag was revealed to be trans with they/them pronouns
>>745965548We will be playing Galactic Racer instead.
What I saw, I liked. I boughted.
>>745965548>XCOM spiritual successor
>>745966393>has the choice to choose he/him>instead obsessed on they/them optionWhy are you like this?
>>745966265Can you sex her in-game?
>>745966473>has the choice
>>745965548Because the previews make it look meh.
>>745966473Because live and let live doesn't work. Extermination is the only choice.
>>745965548>disneyslop>>745965898>capeshitonly drooling mongoloids like these things.
>>745966378They are all saved for the DLCs
>>745966790There will be no DLC apparently
>>745966473>Just suck the dick bigot hehe
>>745966726Go back to /tv/
>>745965548Looks like modders will have to save this trash heap of a game again
>>745966473Give them an inch, and they’ll take a mile.
>>745966948The game isnt even out yet. Wdym modders have to save this game?
>>745967051The closer we are to launch the mode issues seem to crop up
I was somewhat interested but then I realized my toaster can't run it.
>>745967426It is turn based. 15fps are enough
Just pirate it so Disney doesn't get a dime
no gog release no buy
>>745965548no playable commando droids
>>745966393>Depending on whether they choose the male or female version of Hawks, players might notice that the voice options feel more like an outlaw cowboy or a by-the-book FBI agent. Both voice actors brought different avenues for players to connect to. Coupled with the player’s option to pick the character’s species, first name, appearance, clothing and more, we made those choices customizable in the game universe so Hawks felt like they could be anybody.>-Greg Foertsch, CEO and Creative Director
>>745965548>Disney railsyeah even if the gameplay is good it'll be embedded in some hypersanitized MSQ with minimal replayabilityi'll give you $10, tops
>Have to play as some old as fuck white cracker as the main character>No MC character creatorI'm good.
>>745965908This + flight sticks and a vr headset is going to make for a VERY comfy winter.
>>745968029Time to leave, wetback.
>>745968029You can literally make him/her a different species. Why even make posts like these that showcase your retarded niggerdation to the whole world?
>>745967861pronouns are always they/them so they didn't have to record 3xWhy are you making disingenuous comments
>>745968518
i like xcom but i'm not really a fan of star warsi'll have to see how star warsy it is
>>745965548>What went wrongStar wars.
>>745968720the trailer gave me capeshit vibes desu
>>745965821thiskilled any interest I had
>>745968029>No MC character creatorbut anon thats wrong
>>745966070It's not a roguelike anon. It's a weird "not dating" sim where you take superheros on dates inbetween the games and go to book club with them.It's fucking weird and I can't fathom the pitch for that taking up 1/3 of the game.
>>745966473>umm sweaty you have the choice to de-transition later in life
Do I need to watch any of the Disney clone wars era shows to get what's going on? I dipped out after the buyout.
>>745969280How is it then? The characters are obviously pre made.
>>745966473>has the choicemfw he doesn't know
>>745965548>it's starwars slop>firaxis (no one cares about that pile of shit anymore)>all nuXCOM clones in the past 10 years have been ass>gamers don't like games anymore (unless it's gatcha, pedobait or microtransaction skin scams)Who cares
>>745968029At least research what you’re shitposting about
>>745970278The main character can be customized however you want. There are a couple pre-made characters that can't be and a bunch that you can. The non-premade characters are given personalities and interact with the crew the same way the pre-made ones do.
>>745965548Disney spent billions on the franchise for the purpose of expanding their market share with men, and then burnt that money by handing the production to people who hate men.
>>745965548Casual reminder that the Ghost Recon: Shadow Wars game on the 3DS is the actual X-COM spiritual successor and actually plays well.
>Oh shit finally a thread about this game i'm looking forward to>look inside>its just /pol/ shitpostingeradicate this board
>>745971153>expecting actual game discussion on /v/>especially about a fucking star wars game
>>745971324tbfthis mindset of people have in regards to star wars is self made by Disney so..
>>745971153>game has they/them cancer>prople rightfully call this pozzed shit out>wah I’m gonna come in here and ouss and shit myself like a pussyYour fault you fucking retard
>>745971153There isn't much more to talk about until it comes out
>hey I liked Wasteland 3, maybe this might be kinda neat>UE5yeah suddenly I have no further interest in this product
>>745965548It's a nu-com successor not an x-com successor.
I'm somewhat interested but I'm a little worried by how much every single interface element seems to look exactly like XCOM 2. I'm fine with copying effective design elements but at a glance it looks more like a mod than an original game.
>>745971153>THE /pol/ BULLIES!!!!!!
>>745971929Kill all jak posters irl
>>745965634people still buy the games/toys it's movies/tv shows that are dead
>>745972139>people
>>745965548I'd rather go in with no expectations than hoping for a worthy Xcom2 successor.
I might give it a try.Been playing Menace and its great but still early access so not a lot of content
Is this gonna be another Star Wars Outlaws? Dead brand btw.
>>745966473>has the choice to choose he/him
>>745965895The main character is the only one whose death results in a game over
>>745972106I won't tolerate this bigotry. 'Jak posters are the most oppressed people in the world
I was hyped to buy it even though it's from EA,, but seeing pronoun shit killed itI will wait and see
>>745965548I'm looking forward to it, I don't really pay attention to artificial "hype" cycles pushed by marketing firms.
>>745973374How did you react when your rpg character got called a they before the year 2015? Did you freak out like this? Didn’t think so
>>745965548>star wars zero white menIt's very telling. Usually, I don't care but when they have a large cast and no white men, it's a signal flare to me. A signal that they push their shit lib agenda more than making a good sensible game. Also, civilization series has been Dei for a long time, plus the Xcom team got kicked out over the years for being white men. Saying X-Xcom devs is like saying 2026 343 is ex halo devs.
>>745974052Make the protagonist a white man.
>>745973674I didn't like it in 2015. I didn't like it in 2005. I didn't like it in 1995. It's base and stupid. None descriptive language is what you use to fool people you don't like when you gotta talk to them.
>>745974052Oh my god you're such a faggot holy shit. Always crying about men, try being one instead.
>>745974649
>>745965548it looks like its built around their ocs too muchi might pirate it
>>745975245Nope, turns out that's not the casePretty sure Burrito ruined that too , how fun
>>745965821Bingo. Close thread.
>>745965548Alien Tactics, Onions Wars Tactics, Rambo Tactics, Trantasy Tactics? I'll tactically decline.
>>745965898This would be good...without the shitty cards.
>>745965548Might pirate if I can get the girls topless like with XCOM mods.
>>745965841Make a daily thread
>>745975498actually it would be good without the Persona-lite dating sim in between the actual game
>>745965548Depends on railroaded it is. Doesn't really seem like there'll be much variety. They want you to appreciate their heckin epic storyline and le deep characters instead of play the fucking game.
>>745976001It's a TRPG which is a glorified visual novel genre.
baby yeed.
>>745976001probably going to be like midnight suns where you go to a hub area and have boring ass dialogue for 9000 hours between missions
>>745971153Shouldn't have taken the wokepill
>>745976148You have never played a trpg
>>745976532I posted a pic of JA3 in this thread
>>745965548Star wars is shit. Maybe if it's very good I could be convinced but that's unlikely.
>>745976409these devs left Firaxis specifically because they didn't want to make Midnight Suns so maybe not.
theres an ahsoka cameo in this gamepeople gonna hate that shit
>>745976148 this but unironically,one of the best TRPGs to come out recently was a VN
>>745977136hot tube top loli Ahsoka or old hag Ahsoka
>>745977167UtawarerumonoTriangle StrategyThe list goes on
>>745976790>not Midnight Sun Firaxisso it's Chimera Squad Firaxis? That's somehow supposed to make me feel better?
>>745977206S3 onwards, they got the actress from her show to mocap and voice
>>745965548100% chance of this game being dogshit.Not 90% Not 95% Not 99.99% One Hundred Percent pile of garbage.
>>745965548>star wars xcom made for kids because disneyno thanks
>>745977354>her showthe post OT one?
>>745977440Star Wars was always for kids
>>745977453yeah but from the flashback scene, not the old hag
>hunting occult witches at the end of Republic Spacemy Acolyte flags are triggering.... Can someone confirm or deny? Squid Games Jedi was cool, but everything else about that shitshow sucked
>>745977503here is your answer then why is it going to be shit
star wars fucking sucks
>>745977282it's the people who left after XCOM 2 when Jake decided to make Marvel instead of XCOM 3.
>>745977658I thought /v/ users liked kids?
jesus H Christ why is the Open X-Wound faggots so up in arms over clones ?play your shitty X-Piratez nobody will take it away
>>745965821thisalso, the star wars ip has been severely tarnished by disney
>>745977641the "cult" is spread through evil lookin' mind control bugs, seems like. Nothing like the Acolyte at all.
are we pretending Disney wasn't the one responsible for aging up Star Wars from the kid franchise to sell toys to a literal gritty war in space opera?Rogue One was the start of Adult Star Wars
>>745977370>Miss
>>745977749they decided to go Marvel after Chimera Squad since they didn't like faceless soldiers and wanted "a crew".Doesn't bode well at all
>>745965548Haven't seen anything about this game, can I just play as 4 clone troopers?
>>745965548>disneshit mutilated nuSW>anything but pile of fecesThanks, but no thanks
>>745977370EA's track record for Star Wars Games has been good though:>Battlefront>Battlefront 2>Fallen Order>Jedi OutcastAll "must plays" for Star Wars fans.
>>745977927No, anon, Chimera Squad was a stop-gap filler game while Marvel was in development. It was never meant to be anything more.
>>745977749>finish up a decent expansion with an obvious teaser for xcom 3>drop EVERYTHING and work on marvelshit instead>it flops>leave firaxis>start developing some janky AI-generated story game with new studio>new studio closes before releasing anythingwhat was jake's fucking problem
>I see gender dysphoria in your future
>>745977821I don't get your analogy, Star Wars always flip flopped between serious themes >literal genocides, planet obliterated, casual murder, torture, slaveryand shit that is played for laughs>ewoks, gungans, young anakin, Chewie
>>745977967Yes.
>>745978046>>745978046>literal genocides, planet obliterated, casual murder, torture, slaverythis is literally considered kid friendly in the 80s
>zero company>successor to x-com>zero>z>company>com>its ZCOMBRAVO LUCAS
>>745978257where's YCOM?
>>745978196not really people just had arbitrary takesif Timothy watched something like Nightmare on the Elm Street he would be scolded
I just had a dream that I was driving by a B1-Battledroid hooker on the street in lingerie and she started running from me and scrambling to throw her high heels at me in a panic while I told her I wasn't going to hurt her. I think I know what to comprise my squad of.
is xcom even good?
>>745965548I like clone wars, I like xcom and this is the only game Im excited this yearwhat a sad year for gaming
>>745979173Yes
>>745979173Slopcom
>>745979173I liked 2. Enemy Unknown needs some mod called Long War and I can't bother with that right now. OpenXCOM is retro even for me who plays retro games every day.
I refunded because of the they/them protag
>>745965548>What went wrong?It's fucking nu star wars. Nobody cares about that
>>745967426Its turn based so you could probably play it at 720p and 20fps and have roughly the same experience as someone playing at 4k 60fps
>>745977253she was my favorite duology girl
>>745965548>star warsFound your problem
>>745965548The only thing I noticed about this game is that the lightsabers look THICC like they used to before Disney demasculated them and gave them this weird thin unimpressive look.
>>745965634Nah people love XCOM. The problem is that Star Wars has been losing relevance for years now. It hasn't gained any new fans. Only boomers really care about it these days.
>>745965548I am hyped. It's just that it's a Star Wars game so hype for me is "I'll remember the game's title and that it exists and will research it more after it's released"
>>745965548It's only $50 which means its gonna be short, barebones and small scale
i don't like star wars
>>745980259N-No.. people just have Star Wars fatigue. The sequel trilogy was super duper successful and everybody loves Rey. Disney did everything right, the kids just aren't into Star Wars anymore, because... because THEY JUST AREN'T okay???
>do everything they can to avoid making XCOM3>permanently shit up the XCOM IP by making chimera squad >flop over and over again as a resultThey deserve the endless failure.
>>745981147Nobody says this
>>745981207Wrong company
>>745981210But I just did.
>>745979712I'm extremely cynical and jaded are there are like 5 games I was looking forward to this year
>>745981207This game was literally made by one of Xcom 2's lead devs who left Firaxis. The story goes that he wanted to make a spiritual sequel to Xcom 2 for years and Vince Zampella contacted him and said he'd greenlight it if he made it a Star Wars game, which is how this came to be
>>745965548
>>745981601>Totalbiscuit here back from the dead and I hate pronouns
>>745981667totalfaggot was completely on board with troonslop
>>745981667>>Totalbiscuit here back from the dead and I hate pronounsTB at the end of his life was good friends with several transexuals, he even went as far as refunding someone's ticket because the guy asked if futa was gay at some venue
>>745981776>>745981841who's the fat bald guy then if not totalbiscuit
>>745981941Babyvsheel or something anyway that is not TB after chemo
>>7459655481. star wars a dead brand2. the game looks like shit. make it about clone troopers and give us deep clone customization and maybe youd have people interested. but they cant do that they give u a couple basic clones to pick and then its all black women and ugly aliens. who the fuck wants that? this game will flop.
>>745965959The overlap between capeslop fans, turn-based tactics fans and cardslop fans has gotta be the smallest overlap imaginable, but I'm happy that you and those 10 other people got your dream game. The rest of humanity is into two of those things at most.
>>745982028>every unit should be identical Retars
>>745982159no, they should get really creative and give us a ton of original clone armor desings and armor bits to wear. instead u get to play as a clone, or some ugly alien, or a black woman, or an r2 unit.no customization there. no fun there
Disney completely destroyed interest in Star Wars. Also there is a LOT of Indie competition in the nuCom gameplay category these days.
>>745982028You can literally use an entire team of clones you fucking moron
>>745982293>LOT of Indie competition in the nuCom gameplay category these daysLike what? Anything from this year?
>>745982293>Also there is a LOT of Indie competition in the nuCom gameplay category these days.All of it bad
>>745982297oh my goooood youre fucking retarded and cant read. nobody wants to play as the same unit.make it just clones. ad in like 20 different helemt shapes and designs, shoulder, chest pieces, cloaks, decals, paint schemes etc.
Fucking hell, just talk about the gameplay, you people.https://youtu.be/Ma3fE3nWCqw?is=GxalnKq-GX80ONdI
>>745982449>gameplay>half the video is lame cutscenes
>Nucom cloneswhere?please show me Xcom 2 clone that isn't Jagged Alliance 3I am not even being facetious here, genuinely want to play games with those mechanics
>>745982449>>745982524oh god it really is going to be midnight suns tier
>>745965548It being $50 is a very red flag.
>>745965548dropped Xcom 2 at the intro because I was forced to play as a black man and mexican woman. hoping this won't be wokeslop too
>>745965548they ruined it when they showed john star warsno one likes hero characters in strategy games, this is abou the grunts dying behind chest high cover
>>745982242there's a ton of custom clone armor options
>>745982536an indie JA3 clone just came outforget the name though
>>745982687>he fell for the half cover meme
>>745982626Midnight Suns was more fun than Xcom, so this is good
>>745982747Menace? I didn't see much gameplay of it yet
>>745982536Have you tried Gears Tactics? I thought it was pretty good, though it's a bit different from XCOM.
>>745983069no like a literal JA3 clone, down to the setting
>>745982747Warhounds? (not to be confused with Wardogs)
>>745982917Very shity bait this is
I don't give a shit about Star Wars but I really enjoyed Midnight Suns so I'm considering grabbing this if it is well-received
I recently played Tactical Breach Wizards. Enjoyed it quite a lot.
>"Man I wish there were more games like X-COM">the monkey's paw curls>marvel shit and disneywars shit
>xcomlike
>>745965548Would probably be more talked about if it was actually an XCOM game.
>>745965634>>745977641>Chuds jumped the gun on The Acolyte and mindlessly criticized it>Now it's getting The Phantom Menace treatment and being reevaluated as good

Why are you people so miserable?
>>745984521oh please
MIDNIGHT SUNS WAS AWESOME AND YOU FUCKERS ALL IGNORED IT AND NOW FIRAXIS XCOM IS DEAD REEEEEEEEEE
>>745984961entertainment sucks dicks (quite literally)
I havent played a video game since April and I'm going to get this game.
>>745985142capeshit and cardshit is just too much for me to bear at once, sorry anon.
S T A R S H E L L SO FM A D N E S S
>>745985423This is just turn slop
>>745984961jaded star wars fans are the most annoying people online right now
>>745985142holding games as hostage never works
>>745986037what game was held hostage?people ignored midnight suns for incredibly petty reasons, so the studio didnt make any money and died. the end.
>>745986205getting turned off by the cards was absolutely not a petty reason, it's heavily associated with low effort indie garbage. Was the game actually fun anyway? Yes. Is being turned off by gameplay mechanics you associate with bad games petty? No. It was an inexplicably boneheaded idea.
>>745986205NTA I could think of a few examplesEYE Divine cybermancy devs>BUY OUR SHITTY DAIMON BLADES GAME OR NO EYE DIVINE 2the other was Saint's Row
>>745986205they should have known that there probably isn't much crossover between the audiences for xcom and capeshit. it's their own fault. also, cardshit.
>Star Wars>2026
>>745986467>getting turned off by the cards was absolutely not a petty reason, it's heavily associated with low effort indie garbageno actually, getting turned off by a random feature is kinda petty. and judging a game by other games using that feature? that's more retarded than petty, I'll give you that.
What kind of gameplay does /v/ even like?
>>745986706>this mechanic is almost exclusively used in low effort bad games>surely THIS time will be differentof course the actual thing making the game a bit shit is the awful friendship simulator in between the game parts, so the people turned off by cards came to the correct conclusion even if their reasoning was slightly off the mark.
>>745986941what is the correct conclusion? it's a great game.
I didn't buy Midnight Sucks for one reason, in-game currency for real money in a fucking single player game, right there on the Steam page
>>745987026that the game has significant flaws that justify skipping it. I don't regret the time spent but I sure as fuck am never going to play it again like I might with XCOM.
>>745965548>What went wrong?
>>745966473Having he/him pronouns is just as gay.This is not a choice. It is already determined by your gender, and the rules of grammar.If you feel the need to specify your pronouns you are a faggot.
>>745966473>has the choice to choose he/himThat's not even in the game, you stupid fucking faggot. Where'd you go, you dumb cunt? Ran away after being proven wrong? You retarded piece of shit!
>>745965548>star wars xcomso more super hero shit basically
I didn't know we had a midnight suns shill on the board
>>745987408In reality you play as a superhero in every game except Dark Souls
>>745987450get with the timesnow that firaxis is dead people started to call it an underrated gem ALL THE FUCKING TIMEmeanwhile true chads like me who always knew it was great are sitting here like COOL COULD YOU HAVE FIGURED THAT OUT WHEN IT MATTERED
>>745987241Why do you keep falling for gaming journo ragebait?
>>745987523>now that firaxis is dead people started to call it an underrated gem ALL THE FUCKING TIMEnews to me, I didn't know anyone actually played it
>>745987059pretty sure the currency just buys you costumes that are unlockable normally anyway.still a dogshit practice though
>>745987551The they/them exclusive bullshit is fact, you retarded shill.>I... it's just to save money!Shut the fuck up, faggot. Calling male characters him even in gender selectable games is the standard, no matter how much you insist it never happens. You lying fucking freak.
>>745965548>>745965821>>745969092I literally didn't even know about this, I figured the dude on top was the protag. Where's the troon?
no naked female twilek squad no buy
>>745987241saints row 4 did this and nobody complained
/v/ has actually completely lost their minds.
>>745987698
>>745987523Firaxis isn't deadThey're still working on Civ 7 which has been a great success
>>745987718The "dude" is a they/them and no, you can't choose male and will never be called he or him unlike what this fucking retarded faggot >>745966473 assumed before he ran away in shame from being wrong.
>>745987896fair enough, the team that made the xcom games is dead
>>745987896>great success >less players than Civ 6 and Civ 5
>>745965548>Star WarsThat's why. Disney killed the most prints-money franchise in the world.
>>745965898the gameplay for this is really good. the only thing I did not like was the camera controls and moving heroes around. turns also felt like they took too long for what you were actually doing. also, the art was really bad. somewhat underrated if you like tactics games. I would give it a shot.
>>745965959It was hated because 90% of the game was a Persona-esque collectathon inside some magic mansion while all of the heroes sucked your dick like you were Poochie.
>>745965548>>745987936>>745988190absolutely insane that the gay guy from Shameless is more of a traditionally masculine protagonist than this fucking mustache dude, with male pronouns and a fucking goth space witch girlfriend. How the fuck do these games even exist as they do with Star Wars desperate to be *this* gay? Say what you will about Debra Wilson.
The only good starwars games have been KOTOR and Battlefront (yes including nu battlefront)no one gives a shit about any game that involves the clones because they have all been dogshit
>>745988320Jedi AcademyLego Star Wars
>>745988320>no one gives a shit about any game that involves the clones because they have all been dogshitRepublic Commando?Literally all of the Battlefront games?
>>745988296>than this fucking mustache dudecustomizable character anon
>>745965548No DRM right? I think I'll buy it to play on Deck.
>>745988296All the devs had to do was take the extra step and let you actually create a male character. The MUH CUTTING COSTS bullshit is retarded. There are already different voice sets. It's about normalizing this kind of gay shit. Congratulations, bet it lost more money than saved. Those dumbasses.
>>745965959It also looked pretty ass
>>745988416>customizable characterExcept you can't even choose to be a him. Stop dancing around the issue. It's insufferable.

>>745965548Why Star Wars when X-Com is basically the same plot as Stargate?
>>745988457Nevermind I didn't know about this, I'll pirate it. >>745987936>>745965959I remember everyone shitting on it but now it seems to be remembered decently.

>>745988462>>745988504You’re losing your mind and battling the strawmen in your head
>>745965548Honestly? Star Wars is just a DeadIP to to me these days, i didn't care about Muhrvel XCOM either. Hell even XCOM itself took a hit with the Chimera/Cop game.>>745988506I'd say Rogue Squadron 1 and 2 were both pretty good too.
>>745988820Can you choose for the main character to be referred to as a him or not? Simple question.
>>745978000>EA >Jedi Outcast ???

>>745988878You sure can, buddy
>>745989058Prove it
>>745988931he probably meant survivor, the baseball game where you try to kill bosses with a wiffle ball bat
>>745989149Already pre ordered it. I will be sure to let you specifically know what I find.
>>745988504saints row 4 did itwere you complaining then?
>>745989240And 1, and 2, and 3
>>745989282>And 1You dumb fuck. The player was ALWAYS male in 1. You stupid cunt. What shill script are you working from, dumbass?
>>745988878Nigga fuck your questions. Go kill yourself.
*jingles keys*
>>745989234So as expected, you're full of shit. Lying faggot.
>>745989659
>>745989683It was a simple fucking question. Now you're running away. You're a weak little bitch.
>>745965548The worst part about modern xcom was all the superhero crap and you expect me to get excited for star wars xcom?

>>745989847White, dumbass. Why are you constantly defending tranny shit?
>"I don't this pronouns shit in my games!"
>>745989727can't wait for a bunch of clone wars cameos but only the characters filoni likes
>>745989950Is it tranny shit that the Saints Row player is a male in 1 but can suddenly be female in 2?
>>745989950>WhiteYet you’re acting like a baboon
>>745990071>Zero company has tranny shit>WHATABOUT SAINTS ROWWhat the fuck is your problem?
>>745990253So you're not even denying you're constantly defending tranny shit? You're acting like a faggot. Because you're a faggot. Faggot.
>>745990491
>>745990557>woke tranny defender >y... you're the leftist!LMAO
>>745990491>thing is bad because its woke>you never complained about the thing in the past, before "woke" was a thing?>REEEEEE
>>745965959>>745988257 this, you dumb fuck. The gameplay was fine. It was the stupid bullshit in the mansion that killed it. Blade wanting to fuck captain marvel, magik being a whiny bitch and not wanting to open a portal without being praised for it. I chose to go star gazing with dr strange thinking he'd open a portal to the cosmos and all we did was lay in a field at night and talk about our feelings. It was so fucking stupid.
>>745965548Anyone who says that a franchise is too big to fail just needs to look at modern Star Wars.I wonder if people under 25 even realize that there were several decades where Star Wars was more prevalent in America than any franchise is today. Yes, even GTA and Pokemon. A new Star Wars movie was a cultural event that everybody went to go see. Now the latest film literally lost to a couple of indie movies. Funnily enough, by changing the target demographic from men to women, they broke the chain that led to women (who are social consumers who will watch a movie because it's popular with the guys) of all ages also going to see the movies.
>>745990850Magik was literally /v/
>>745965548Yidsney killed all hype I’ll ever have for star wars again by destroying the franchise. Only hope for redemption is TOR literally because it predates the entire franchise and is basically its self contained universe lol
Do you also get mad when the Xcom commander gets called they/them?
>>745966986Correct
>>745990917Bioware struck gold by setting their games so far in the past that there is zero chance to see the same 12 fucking people everywhere, because all history revolves around Anakin Skywalker, and the two kids that fell out of his wife.
>>745965548The fact that it's a Star Wars game.
>>745990986>replied to yourself award
>>745990902That's probably why I hated her.
>>745991040There was plenty of room in Star Wars for other characters to shine. If Star Wars had been handed off to good leadership, they could have pulled a TNG. The problem is that there was a concentrated effort by Kathleen Kennedy and Dave Filoni (who has less testosterone than any woman in the office) to humiliate established male characters and introduce an army of unlikeable Mary Sues and inept men who are aggressively unappealing to men by design.Disney Star Wars is so hateful and ugly that it probably is dead for good. I don't know that even a ten year hiatus and then a full retcon of Disney Star Wars could save it, though that would be its only chance.
>>745991907Filoni is a hack but creating inept male characters or humiliating established male characters are not among his many sins
>>745965548its another woke star wars story full of girlbosses while the 1 white guy in the game is weak and submissive
The male protag has a masculine western drawl. The they/them shit is literally just because they were too lazy to record separate voice lines.
>>745992698And it kills everything else. So what? You can give whatever excuse you want for it, it doesn't change the ultimate result.
>disneycanonNothing you do in these Prequel/OT games matters.
>>745993064You legitimately might just have schizophrenia
>>745993064Culture warriors truly believe they deserve to live
>>745965548Isn't review embargo being this late usually a bad sign?

>>745992698they/them shouldn't be an acceptable pronoun for singular people anyway. Just say Hawk, like Shepard in Mass Effect
>>745965548why would I play worse xcom in onions wars, disney edition?
>>745996031video games rarely refer to protagonists with pronouns anyway since they're present in nearly every conversation
>>745984521unlike gender studies , it's much harder to make up random bullshit when it comes to public opinion and earnings
>>745996031I don’t care what you think is acceptable
>>745996943likewise, ergo I think it's acceptable for me to think total trans death is acceptable and I'll see you in the polls
>>745997138You will do nothing
>>745996031Singular they has always been a part of the English language.
>>745997512no it's not. Its used if you don't know the group or person. People didn't go around saying their pronouns are they/them and it doesn't stay once the gender is known.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singular_they
>>745997720>wikipediaGoyim
>>745965548I just bought it. First full price game I've bought in a long time. I can only hope others do the same so we can maybe get more xcom games in the future.
>>745965548Destroying a thing will always be infinitely easier than building it. A piece of precision equipment that required a team of geniuses and a thriving economy to create can be shattered by some spearchucker with 70 IQ pushing it off a cliff.That's why it's important to safeguard your culture and never let evil people and retards anywhere near positions of power.
>>745997780I will never understand how "not a Jew" became an insult
>>745998027Goyim don’t understand many things
>>745998027>Dos ken nor a goy (דאָס קען נאָר אַ גױ) – Something only a goy would do or is capable of doing.>A goy blabt a goy (אַ גױ בלאַבט אַ גױ) – "A goy stays a goy">Goyisher kop (גױישער קאָפּ) – "Gentile head," someone who doesn't think ahead, an idiot.>Goyishe naches (גױישע נחת) – Pleasures or pursuits only a gentile would enjoy.>A goy! (!אַ גױ) – Exclamation of exasperation used "when endurance is exhausted, kindliness depleted, the effort to understand useless".
>>745997785I hope it turns out good. There's only this and Mars Tactics whenever that finishes up.
>>745998361Same. I'm really hoping I don't regret my purchase. I already have mars tactics wishlisted too.
>>745998027Goyim is the yiddish word for cattle. When they call you a goyim they are calling you a stupid animal fit only to perform labor that benefits them, for as long as you can, and then be alughtered when you are no longer of any use to the chosenites.
>>745998590but that's פֿיך (fick) - which is closer to "fucker".
>>745998590no it isn't, it just means non-Jew. Which they think is insulting enough.
>>745997720>no it's not>This use of singular they had emerged by the 14th century, about a century after the plural they.
>>745965898>XCOM 2 is super successful>tons of hype for a sequel>DLC ends on sequel tease>Hmm...what if instead we made marvel slop at the peak of marvel fatigueThe incompetency over at Firaxis to waste their successful IPs is absurd
>>745999269> Its used if you don't know the group or person.>It typically occurs with an indeterminate antecedent, to refer to an unknown person, or to refer to every person of some groupwhy do "you" ""people"" always cherrypick and take shit out of context to defend a dumbass point for a gotcha.
>>745965821i was going to buy it but i didn't know about this, will definitely pirate.
>>745965898this is one of my top games ever, definitely better than the xcoms, though i like those.
>>745965959Yes, as a game it’s fine, but it flopped because it’s concept is misguided. Xcom fans want Xcom, they don’t care about capeshit. And capeshit fans don’t like this game’s genre. It’s a game with no audience
>>745999692Right, singular they has always been a part of the English language. What are you even arguing about, lil bro.
>>746000410>I don't know how to address your point, so I'm gonna ignore ittypical kek

>remember hearing that outlaws was a broken mess at launch >found a dirt cheap key last week, give it a go>game runs fine, impressive maps and okay gameplay >but every npc is mystery meat woke designthey had an okay ruined by ugly characters
the worst thing about it is that it's Nu WarsI do not give a single fuck about nu wars, not even a little bitnothing at allnone of itbut ill probably still play it because i am so goddamn starved for xcom type content
>>746000241They should have just done XCOM but Capeshit and made it SHIELD guys that you level up like you did your XCOM guys, basically just fucking reskin it, add super hero enemies, etc
>>745985142I don't like capeshit and I lost interest in Star Wars the second Disney acquired it. I didn't even watch the first Diddeny move for a few years, and never watched the 2nd or 3rd.I love these type of games but the subject matter is repulsive.
>>745965548XCOM is devolution of Tactical games.They need to make it more like Jagged Alliance 2 but evilve to next step with storytelling and multiple endings depending on your allegiance.If you can't play as Empire mercenary to destroy rebel scum, assasinate political rivals. it's not a game for me.
>>745985142>WHY DOESNT ANYONE LIKE MY CAPESHIP CARD GAME REEEEEVigilo Confido, bitch
>>746002361When I watched like an hour of gameplay, it looked like one of those mid PS2 games that you rented over the weekend and then a year later you weren't even sure if you'd ever played it.Pathetic for such an expensive game.
>>746002549SUPPOSEDLY you get to choose between Empire and Rebels at some point in the story.
>>746002172>predictive possessive>Its used if you don't know the group or person> People didn't go around saying their pronouns are they/them and it doesn't stay once the gender is known.Not my fault you can't understand english
>>745965548I'll buy it and play it if I can make a squad of twi'lek slaves. Hope there's mods to add sexy skins like xcom 2.
>>746002608Is it still retarded AP movement?Instead of multiple points given depending on character energy, strength and reflexes?
>>7460027603 all-purpose points I think. There's probably a video about it somewhere.
>>745965548Nobody ever played XCOM and thought that it'd be better with premade OCs
>>746002658next he'll say "my point was it has existed in english chud!" ignoring the part where we're talking about its use about pronouns.These people - are not people
>>746002831Nah, not for me.Time to reinstall JA2 once again https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GUSIi7OouGII probably should just make my own game at this point. Nobody will make it. JA3 was close but was a downgrade in all mechanics
>>745965548>zero hypeBeen looking up stuff about it every day since I know it's close to release lol
>>745965548It looks like disney star wars. Sanitized corpo slop with that distinct millennial writing touch. I have no interest.
>>746003161>Millenial writing>Look under the hood>It's always a Gen XerJoss Whedon, who you dumbass zoomers decry as the father of "Millenial" writing is Gen X, he was born in 1964.
>>745981321I hope you didnt get disappointed
>>746006081
>>746006117
>>746006081is that fucking Flea from red hot chili peppers?
I will play it, and I will enjoy it.
>>746006189Yes, that's from the Kenobi show
>>745981419was Vince the ferrari one or was that the other guy?
I only just heard about this. It actually looks neat but won't run on my potato GPU.
>>746006424Yes, he was indeed the "ferrari guy", as in he was mangled inside of a ferrari after hitting a rock
>>746002608Devs already confirmed there are no branching paths. It'll be linear like XCOM. Though there will be a switch from clone war to early galactic civil war, as the launch trailer showed an Imperial Venator cruiser.

>>745965548>what went wrongits star warscould've been any made up or pre existing setting in the history of the world and they picked the most bland overused exhausted creatively bankrupt product franchise

>>746007157Name one you faggot. Best you can say is Jedi Survivor and that came out completely fucking broken.
>>746007209Stop dodging the allegations retarded asshole, end yourself immediately.
>>746007209>came out completely fucking broken.and you know this won't because...............
>>746007339Because people played a preview build for up to 50 hours and it wasn't broken.
>>745983237>>745982747probably warhounds and its dogshit
>>746007452The same can be said for Jedi Survivor

>>746007452Anon, your Battlefield 2042?
>>746006189No, that's Bane from The Dark Knight Rises, "For you" is his catchphrase
>>745987718in a cutscene before making your character you are reffered as they, after that the game simply calls you hawks
>>745965548nothing about it is appealing until you're into a goywars skin for a shittier xcom and NEED to consoom
