Let’s see what happens when the games release. Easy to sit and comment about a union member losing work now, but the reason these people were being considered or even actively requested is because they give excellent performances consistently. Some of the new guys will do ok, but man n of them are going to need…

 Ok, feel free to write a detailed story integrating historical figures front a civilization nobody has heard of, whom we don’t know about, and who have no impact on modem civilization. Oh, and their greatest architectural achievements have basically all been destroyed so you can’t really use them in a game that’s…

Except for the part where as a serious power with a written language it predated them by only about a hundred years.

It’s the oldest western civilization that were have such intricate and extensive records of. Once you start getting much older than ancient Egypt, you are basically going off of legends passed down to the Egyptians. This is mostly due to the fact that the Egyptians and Persians were among the first major western…

Let’s be fair, this looks like the logical progression to multiplayer RPG from ME3/DAI.

I think if it weren’t for the salary cap, he would.

Just in time to tank when they move to SF.

I’d recommend their golf swing.

It’s obvious what i mean. Nintendo walls off communication and takes as many steps as possible to control its online space so that it’s online games are basically just single player games with another player taking control of the AI. It’s just a box someone told them they had to tick off to make investors happy.

Those are just to tick a spreadsheet box and make investors happy. Nintendo isn’t infesting in mobile games as a platform, they have the 3DS and now the Switch.

You’re all wrong.

It’s a proprietary system that Nintendo is 100% in control of, and gets 100% of all royalties for.

That’s 90% of the reason for everything they do. That alone. Why don’t they put their games on mobile? Because they have 100% proprietary control over their own hardware. Why don’t they have a relatively…

“games as a service” reminds me of the George Carlin quote:

Blizzard undercut the grey market by creating a safe method to buy gold with money that could then only be redeemed in the Blizzard marketplace. So now if you want one of these items, you buy it in game with regular money sent directly to Blizzard which then gets turned into BlizzardBucks that you can only use in the…

Well yeah. Is what has nearly always happened with DLC maps, but with previous games the pool of season pass holders was large enough that it wasnt noticed unless you looked for it.

Without spoiling anything, there are some obvious plot hooks left for future DLC or sequels at the end of the game. Is there any word if the game will continue to get DLC releases ahead of future sequels?

If it intended to refer to the KKK, we would be debating its merits as a reference and whether that reference was appropriate from a philosophical or even emotional point of reference, as well as comedy. But critically for the purposes of our discussion, it’s not. It’s not a joke about the KKK, it’s not a reference to…

D-Day is fine. It may be the most critical moment in gunpowder era warfare. I’d like them to open up the scope of it, but if they want to focus on Omaha, they could do worse. At least enough people survived Omaha to give us a true sense of the horror there.

I feel you though on the lesser known battlefields though. So…

Anyone who uses the phrase “respecting the subject matter” and “Battlefield 1” in the same sentance deserves the gulag.

Why should they or the original developer have to explicitly state that is not a reference to the infamous local terrorist group when the ready alternative is to either change the joke that something that fits our remove a throw-away joke that doesn’t translate out of Japan?

Given that the KKK is explicitly a self-identified organization for the advancement of white Christians by terrorizing non-whites and non-Christians, yes they are a radicalized Christian terrorist group and have been since their founding.
