So no narrative connection to the original games (which ended on a cliffhanger) No returning characters, and it’s set in a completely different region. Why does this have the Dark Alliance name attached to this? Was it just the cheapest D&D video game franchise they could buy the name of? Might as well have named it “D…

Drizzt overstayed his welcome long ago. last I heard he killed Demogorgon down in the underdark and became the savior of the drow or some garbage. Lloth’s chosen turned her back on her and even the dark goddess herself was touched by his goodliness....so stupid my head hurts.

So there’s finally going to be a third game to one of my favorite hack and slash titles of all time? Two whole editions of D&D have passed, the series skipped the last generation of consoles. I thought this series was gone for good, that’s amazing! But it’s not even going to follow up on the story from the last game?…

It’s a shame that return to Dominaria sounds like it’s going with another ‘Liliana is hunting down another of her demons’ storyline. Every single one of them so far has been all hype and then turned out to be an anticlimactic side-story at best so far. We know half the gatewatch is going to be on the plane, so I…

What raised my eyebrow initially was all of the ‘women can’t be fighters, it’s not historically realistic’ nonsense that came from the direction of the developer and elements of the fanbase when the game takes place right before the Hussite Wars-like if there’s any damn time period in Bohemia where you’d have women…

In regards to the claim that this tactic would require some sort of flagship to pull off, the scene itself contradicts itself by showing the hyperspace-accelerated debris of the raddus bisecting multiple 3km long Star Destroyers bow-to-stern.

Crash Bandicoot: Everything that can kill you, tends to do so with a unique (often funny) animation.

I *loved* Jedi Academy. I’m not sure it could really make a comeback under Disney though. Kyle Katarn is unfortunately very non-canon right now-Rogue One established that he had nothing to do with the death star, and his costume got recycled for use by a separate character on the cartoon show. The fact that Luke’s…

The Clone wars were a thing. Hyperdrive equipped, drone-piloted ships of all sizes have ample precedent.

Something people seem to be forgetting with some regularity in this conversation is that shields hyperspace travel goes right through shields under Disney canon. Remember that scene in TFA when Han piloted the Falcon through the shields of Starkiller base?

That’s not really true, Star Wars was pretty consistent about reusing a lot of alien species. For instance, Rodians and Twilek appeared in four of the six Lucas films, Bith and Ithorians appeared in three, and Hutts in two. Lucas introduced a lot of aliens across the series, but he was pretty good in bringing back…

I hope they make it more like SC III. That one had not one had surprisingly good singleplayer content, with two good singleplayer campaigns, custom character creation (that didn’t have horrible ideas like clothing stats and clothing damage mechanics tacked on) I remember me and my friends having a lot of fun with that…

The Emperor’s Royal Guard *were* force sensitive, under both the old canon, and the new.

The space gameplay is good, it’s can be kinda fun if you like playing dress up with all the Federation uniform variants or whatever. The ground combat is not amazing though IMO, and the storyline and microtransactions are atrocious.

It was even worse because the scene was a repeat of one from Star Trek 2009 where Spock sees the destruction of Vulcan from its non-existent moon. That scene was one of the more criticized scenes from that movie, and Abrams didn’t learn anything from it.

For some unfathomable reason the powers that be seem to have very little faith in the ability of Romulans to play the antagonist role in movies.

Most of the complaining about the new Trek show I have seen has been about getting (yet another) reboot of the klingon’s makeup and the stupid CBS All Access stuff.

I can think of so many sports that would be infinitely more deserving. Kendo, Jousting, Sumo Wrestling, Lacrosse etc. But Video Games get to jump to the front of the line. What. The. Hell.

What’s with all the Wedge Antilles hate in the comments?

I saw one of these when I was working on a farm for the summer a few years back. It was quite the shock! Neither me nor my boss knew that this was possible.
