Lmao fash are so easily led

"LOOK, IT'S AN EMOTIONAL FAT TOOTHLESS WUMINS! BE MAD NOW."

Right-wingers are such sheep, not a single independent thought. Total NPCs.

Is the game good? It just looks like another online multiplayer only FPS to me. Not my thing personally, but if it's bad I doubt it's because of "woke".

The game is fun, there's a certain level of chaotic mayhem that comes from being thrust into a situation where you're outnumbered by the dozens and your allies are just as much a threat to you as your enemies

I just don't get it, when did the SJW stereotype go from young women with dyed hair to Queen Brahne from FF9? I saw some other channel with other weird AI-generated matronly looking women as the totemic hate figure

That has alway been present on their discourse. How feminists are just fat ugly women that can’t get a man etc. Since it doesn’t reflect reality, they now can use AI to literally create the strawmans

I like it. If you have a good group to play with its a fun PvE shooter. The overall mechanics were really thought out so almost everything feels good in the game.

Accidentally team killing is also practically a core mechanic so that's a lot of fun. Its not like other games where its mostly the noob that team kills, no player no matter how skilled is free from an accidental TK. Makes a tk more funny than anything.

Friendly fire was how I learned just how flimsy the player character feels in combat. I never had to reckon with how used to Praetor Suits and SPARTAN armor I am until I got cooked in a picosecond by my homie's flame turret. Like, I had a whole "holy shit I am a redshirt" moment until the homie threw down a rez

I tried it and refunded it. Most people seem to enjoy it though.

Yeah I see it's got good reviews. Probably pretty fun if you like the genre

FPS typically isn't my jam but there are some I really enjoy. I got suckered in with the "The matches are zany and everyone is having fun!" The two quick matches I did no one spoke, one person left after a minute and you run from point to point collecting objectives and ticking off boxes. I'm sure it is much more enjoyable with people you know.

Yah, if you play with friends... It is pure glorious anarchy

You get dropped in from space in a small one-way shuttle. If you're good you can hit a robot or a bug with your shuttle. Makes it feel like you're elbow dropping a cyborg chainsaw samurai
