Did they reset the weekly progress during the last maintenance patch? No right? Still need like a dozen missions and scriptures.

March for Mando S3 seems off. Haven't they always targetted the Christmas season for Mando?

It's more hilarious on some maps than others. Specifically, where dumbfucks can get launched off past the railings.

I actually agree with this but Rogue One didn't shy from "jedi shit"; it had some of the best "Jedi" scenes in Star Wars. Vader's palace in Mustafar that bridges the prequels and ep4 and finally Vader's "corridor scene" at the end which has become so iconic that they mirrored it for Luke's...

Not every expansion, but they do throw in some oddball shit every other DLC.

They could make Jedi and force powers work in Andor, they'd just have to set it up as this loftier, parallel plane of activity where exiled Jedi and Sith Inquisitors fight their battles without any regard to the consequences on the people beneath them. It would feed on the show's theme about...

I don't know about that. For the Zealot one you just needed an explosive drum to get your hp to under 1 wound and stay that way. Then wait a few minutes and then get the whole squad dead before the 20 minute limit. You don't need to actually succeed in the mission, just end it. Seems like...

Did they ever fix cheesing the cosmetic penances that were trivial with bots? I never did get around to doing that on zealot. It was actually harder keeping a game full of bots without anyone jumping in.

Yeah that's the feat I was looking at. It says killing a priority target during volley fire refreshes the cooldown, does that mean any yellow target or any marked red target?

I noticed the veteran level 30 feats proc off "priority targets", that's when they're market yellow while volley is active right? Or would you have to tag them too? My vet's like 12 or something.

Its either trivial or horrific depending if you have an ogryn with a shield

Can't say i was super happy about getting 3 daemonhosts in one heresy map tho

Would need still lacerate and haymaker for the cheese, though. Although they did fix the bug where bleeds never expire and lacerate being applied with grenades (lol), it's still the tankiest zealot build. It seems like they tamped down the interaction with Crucian Roulette's crit bonus, but...

Crazy good base rolls, dunno enough about Ogryns if those blessings are meta.

Jesus that just makes me even madder on how they could screw up Beyond Earth. Why couldn't they just hire the same writers and voice actors for Alpha Centauri?!?

You're a bad person.

Chinese subs are fucking terrible. They copied the best Russian diesels (the Kilo) and fucked that up.

This was you wasn't it?

Wait is this based on the Witching Hour and Lasher? Wasn't that just porn?

Some of the banter suggest as much. My Cadian vet keeps talking about how they should've used Abominatus on Atoma by now. There also seem to be banter alluding to future content. At one point the rejects talk about rumors of another hive city on Atoma and Morrow/Zola hushed it down.

I don't know that we need Luthen to be Jedi per se, particularly since Gilroy has already used characters who were force "believers" that were associated with the Jedi but weren't actually Jedi in Rogue One. He could just be another Whills like the monks in Rogue One or someone who worked in...

They sort of wrote around that with those fisher-aliens who complained about the Empire mass-exploiting the planet and killing all the fish. So the prison was just a small part of a larger mass-harvesting operation on the planet. That's a theme that the show started with on the planet Andor...

It's no roguelike but the game is pretty challenging on Damnation difficulty as it is. Even on Heresy, you could be screwed by a reckless teammate.

Rookie.

Gilroy was cagey about whether we'd see Kino Loy again so there's a nontrivial chance he comes back in another episode. I like the theory that the parallels between the prison and the kamino cloning facilities are more than coincidence. Both were antiseptic white water-world facilities and...

Would you still get credit for the Abomination weekly contract if the Daemonspawn just despawn? I'm guessing no.

Kruber approves

Yeah it was post-credits. Worth going back to see it tbh. The last shot could've made for a great poster for the show.

Well, if you want to keep that question open, I'm sure Gilroy and D+ would be happy to elaborate on it. Pretty sure it's gonna play a role in the forthcoming seasons. Personally, I think it's an elegant way to answer how the Empire managed to build the Geonosian design in secret.

Are you just trying to get me to say I didn't watch Solo? Because I didn't watch Solo.

But you need to design, provision, and pay for robots that make space widgets for genocidal death machines you want to make in secret. Prisoners? Not so much. Just need murder floors and chocolate flavoring.

True, but I think reasonable people can make a fair determination that intelligent robots are more valuable than convicted felons. Show me a convicted robot and we got us an argument, though.

Are they cheaper than Dayquan serving 20 years for slanging crack?

It's the Star Wars take: the one where the very first movie shows the foster family of a Jedi orphan haggles with a bunch of Jawas over the cost and quality of those droids. Like it or not, Star Wars establishes a value to droids and their labor. They're plentiful, sure, but from the first...

Sure, but would it be cheaper than prisoners I can kill with the floor? Even if you just needed to optimize say, welding a simple joint, it will always be easier and cheaper with slave labor than with technology. You can almost certainly automate that at scale, but would it be cheaper than...

Whatever that means. Fact is, the premise works. Gilroy wrote the whole arc around it: the Empire could only create its ultimate weapon in secret with the one resource it knew no one would care about: criminals. Droids will always cost money, prisoners will always be a liability.

In this universe droids get depressed and start rebellions at funerals. But prisoners get murdered by floors for free.

No, that was a good reason. But even if droids were cheaper than prison labor, they'd still have to pay for the droids. They'd have to account for them at some point, not so with prisoners. The post-credit scene explains why the prisoners were better for this application, and it wasn't the...

Maybe it was because I went into this expecting yet more garbage Chinese/Hollywood action schlock funded by some rando Tencent subsidiary, but I was definitely surprised it turned out even better than the trailer. Wouldn't be surprised if it turns out to be one of the better "multiverse" movies...
