Whether Microsoft likes it or not TC's version of Gears of War is already competing with:
The original trilogy on original consoles
same but with newer consoles via backwards compatibility
emulators
and fan projects
So even if they double down on it people will be able to play the originals, even if TC doesn't want them to.
@mokuynn619@DrachenZor@DAKKADAKKA1 this is the first time i've seen one of you shills bring up alex brand lmao
you and everyone else knows full well that Alex Brand's story wouldn't be possible today. same goes for Hendrick and Berni
@boy_puke420@VisualFidelity@Mangalawyer There's been a concerted effort since around 2015 to erase this generation of female gears. But given the nature of the game along with disasters like 5, most people don't talk about it/ nor care.
@LordZeroILP@kabrutusdeid The real revisionism is coming from retards like you who purposefully ignore female gears from the past because they don't fit your purposes to keep Gears of War "modern".
Why do you people always use Kait as an example when in the past Alex Brand, Berni, and Helena Stroud were perfect examples of the best of both worlds? I'll tell you why, it's because you're largely subversive, and prefer to overwrite the franchise's history. Kait deserved to get canned because she was an awful character informed by our shitty contemporary world. Full stop.
In the past we had Alex Brand, Helena Stroud, and even Berni. while none were supermodels, all the policing that happens when the shills hound people who rightfully decry how horrible these newer women appear, i notice that they never bring up the old characters pre GoW 4. They always start whining about Kait as if she was exactly who people wanted.(she was not.)
You'll occasionally hear CliffyB and others beat the drum saying "of course we don't want them to be supermodels chud" and other some such nonsense, meanwhile, though the franchise never had anything Stellar Blade tier it still showed a litany of buxom barracks bunnies(not joking) most with tragic backstories all up until around 2016 when GoW 4 released.
@XBOX As much as I love Gears, it could have been so much better if one of the main characters was a sassy, black, butch, girl-boss, who makes condescending quips to men, while pretending to be one.
Said no one, ever.
@Iustitia_esto@HidingfromLif2@AI_EmeraldApple "Every successful culture has to be cold-pressed into mush that's safe for public consumption!"
he just wants everyone to be mindless citizens of an economic zone, that's all.
@HidingfromLif2@AI_EmeraldApple "let me strawman his words and ask him if his HDD needs to be searched. Then no matter what he says, I'll stoically ask him what his answer had to do with what I asked!"
that's it? zero effort? you morons need to try better than that.
@LostHistory9 Neoliberals can't have moral codes, because moral relativism is a fundamental key to their worldview. Asmon uses graphs and pushes regulation whenever he talks about political issues on stream for a reason.
Asmon has too many people fooled into thinking he spawned from underneath 4chan's servers when in reality spent his entire career around bog-standard neolib types and tumblr troons.
as a politician he would govern via regulation and graphs.
very boring compared to the image he had with some people before this incessant whining about Evie.
