Yeah, he blasted off from twitter shortly afterwards.

Not having any luck finding it again, figure my search terms are shit. It was all "They weren't ready for it at the time" stuff.
 
I would really like to know what the fuck the brainthinking was going into this. As far as I heard, they pulled people from the Total War games, including cash cow Total War: Warhammer that has been established for years for this shit.

Then they whack the price up for the Warhammer 3 DLC while producing a subpar product that seriously fucks off a large portion of the very loyal fanbase. All for a game filled with trannies and nigger females with glasses that gets canned the second it goes to closed beta.

Cannot emphasise how CA are basically kings of this very particular type of niche RTS historical/fantasy game that almost no one else produces with a loyal fanbase, and instead fuck that, let's make the most generic shooter and strike after the iron has gone cold.

Why did SEGA agree to this crap?

Because SEGA likes to remind us that they can be as shit as they can be great at times.

Seems like outside of Yakuza and Sonic Frontiers, they kind of seem to be just getting Ls. Anyone remember the attrocious House of the Dead "remake" ?

Why do studios keep trying to force comp, it never works. Comp scenes are born from a shared love for a game that drives people to improve to the theoretical limit. (Also constant autistic level balancing discourages this kind of community from forming, but the game is built with comp in mind so they do this anyways)
The way I see this is just another wargroove to advance wars situation

Cuz they gotta fast forward from the homegrown efforts of backyard LANs in rec centers and speed it up to arenas sponsored by big tech with big gambling money ruining everything and they gotta have it NOW NOW NOW NOW.

It took CS/Street Fighter/Halo/Quake decades to get to where they are today? Fuck that, just pour money into it!
 
Most people suspected that development on Hyenas or TW: Pharaoh were the rising (((costs))) the exec mentioned when they upped the price of the Shadow of Change DLC for Warhammer 3. Now after these cuts they can lower the DLC price again. Right? Nope. They are adopting the Paradox model and have even hired some of their former devs.

Are there any good alternatives to Total War out there? I just want a decent historical strategy game in the style of the old ones.

I really enjoyed Ultimate General: Civil War. It was made by the same modding team that produced Darthmod for all the historical Total War titles.

Very good and fun real-time simulation of linear battle tactics, with good army-building mechanics.

Well akshually

There's nothing inherently non-female in nature about penetration with force to reproduce, provided you are using an ovipositor. Some insects and even fish will penetrate a host animal and lay fertilized eggs in there. Nature is horrifying.

But now I am trying to figure out if the facehuggers would be classified as male or female (or as male or female gametes themselves). You could argue that they are motile gametes, because they run around? But they come from eggs, so are they more like part of an egg?

TL;DR even aliens have much more of a claim on being female than trannies do

Realistically speaking, the baby alien didn't seem to get any nourishment from its host prior to breaking out and was only in there for like half a day so that part of the lifecycle makes zero sense. Almost as if the movie wasn't a logically constructed parallel world and more one meant to elicit emotions from its audience.
 
Is that a tranny in a skirt or an ashkenazi?

Honestly I hate this trend of making ugly/"realistic" game characters. Where did it come from? Is there truly the belief it will change beauty standards?

I can't be alone in just wanting to look at somewhat appealing characters in my games. I don't even grasp why tranny's want representation and not the experience of just running around as a true and honest woman in virtual space.
 
Looked more like Payday than Overwatch. Was probably going to be a combination of the two. I think the characters were meant to be ugly and disheveled looking as a kind of "punk rock' thing. I'm guessing, anyway. There's not much to analyze here because the game was like a veggie fart in the wind: could barely register on its own, screwed by its environment, then disappeared.

I don't know, nature is full of so many seemingly overcomplicated parasite lifecycles (look at Y. pestis for example) that this part doesn't seem particularly unrealistic to me, even if it obviously was just dreamed up for the sake of body horror.

You could argue that the alien baby needs some nucleotide to trigger full development that the species can't produce themselves for some reason, or they have to maintain a specific temperature, or (add your own made-up sci-fi reason here).

But anyway, we should return to the topic, which is the mystery of why gamers did not show enough interest in a game featuring a sassy drag queen.

Credits to them for making the the troon pass so badly I knew who it was just from the thumbnail.

They weren't a tranny, per se, they were a drag queen. I'm not making it up. In the beta, that's literally their first line in the bio.

Sega, who was ok with Sonic 06' and Sonic Boom aborted this. Think about that for a sec.

they must have seen what happened with Forespoken. I bet they got sold on all the faggy shit as the perfect way to break it big in the western market too.

Japanese companies keep getting scammed into trusting western devs and i can't wait to see what dumpster fire Konami has under its sleeve with the western developed upcoming silent hill games.
 
Much like the raceswap batgirl movie that never was, flops this bad confuse me.

If it took a test audience to realize what anyone should be able to see (product is complete shit) you should be firing everyone involved in making it, not just some of them.
