I agree with you!Why do studios think it's ok to pick generic assholes and pair them with generic writing

Where is the representation? SW is diverse as fuck yet in 2019 were forced to play as generic white guy 846458 devoid of personality.
I say this as a white guy
Bummed there wasn't gameplay. But honestly this was pretty similar to all the other panels and interviews that have happened at Celebration so far. Feels like maybe Respawn didn't even want to show this early. I wonder if they would have preferred debuting at E3.
I thought it was an insanely fun panel though.I'm still a little surprised that the IX panel was so... nothing. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed it, and I think the teaser is fantastic. But they're really holding their cards close to their chest this year.

I literally could have have put this any better. WowEven within the realm of white dude video game protagonists, the Fallen Order dude is visual dishwater.
Almost certainly. Have they released anything on Steam for a while now?
I've said it before, I'll say it again: Fallen Order is an awful premise. I don't give a single fuck about the era between ROTS and ANH. It's been done to death, exactly like this, and they've already done it in a fucking video game. Jedi white boy and his Cute Droid Companion is just icing on the cake.
..If they were desperate to cover that time period and premise, it should have been Ahsoka.

Damn. Great idea there.If they were desperate to cover that time period and premise, it should have been Ahsoka.
Thank God it wasn'tIf they were desperate to cover that time period and premise, it should have been Ahsoka.
..
Why didn't they do this.
Instead we get Apprentice Dishwater
If the writing is as bad as it is in the trailer she dodged a bullet though
Yes, all current PC versions of EA published games will be exclusively on there.
Yeah I would prefer an alien to just some random asshole spouting off lines like "trust.. no one."This
...Heck even a generic one of her alien type would have been different
What's happening with Fallen Order in 3 days?Ah fuck, we're getting The Mandalorian and then a whole 3 days later we get The Fallen Order. I ain't ready.
I mean that The Mandalorian comes out on November 12 and then Fallen Order comes out on the 15th.
"This [movie] is the culmination of the Skywalker Saga; it's by no means the culmination of Star Wars," said Kennedy. "I'm sitting down now with Dan Weiss and David Benioff...and Rian Johnson. We're all sitting down to talk about, where do we go next? We've all had conversations about what the possibilities might be, but now we're locking it down."
This summit is on the calendar for next month, Kennedy said.
Why do studios still think it's ok to release these CGI cinematic trailers?!
KK, I'll give you 5 dollars if you secretly record it.Kathy Kennedy will be holding a conference with Rian Johnson and D&D next month to hash out the next 10 years of Star Wars movies.
The trailer is not CGI. It's in-game assets rendered in-engine.
Oh you meant release dates gotchaI mean that The Mandalorian comes out on November 12 and then Fallen Order comes out on the 15th.
That is fucking exciting. The future of SW being discussed post Skywalker, wowKathy Kennedy will be holding a conference with Rian Johnson and D&D next month to hash out the next 10 years of Star Wars movies.
That is fucking exciting. The future of SW being discussed post Skywalker, wow
I dunno guys.. fallen order looks good to me and Respawn shines in the gameplay department.
I'm not worried.
Same. I didn't like it at first, but now that it's hitting me that this they intend this to be the last (mainline at least) movie with this story and these characters, I just want them to go all out. Palpatine returning and being the overarching villain of the entire Skywalker Saga makes sense to me. The Skywalker Saga will end up being about multiple generations of Skywalkers and their pupils putting a stop to his plans.The more I think about it, the more I like the idea of Palpatine returning.
Yeah...The more I think about it, the more I like the idea of Palpatine returning.
This is itI don't mind repeating the post-rots era. I don't mind repeating Kanans story. I don't even mind the character being human.
But I am so tired of "the video game dude." The super serious super bland cookie cutter white guy power fantasy stand-in that's been done literally thousands of times.
I understand this complaint (coming from a brown dude).I don't mind repeating the post-rots era. I don't mind repeating Kanans story. I don't even mind the character being human.
