If these people are from the Prequel to everything Warframe and the Sequel to Dark Sector, why do they look so faggy and diverse? Dark Sector was moody and edgy.
Few people left on Digital Extremes worked on Dark Sector. Most of those that did moved on to the Soulframe team.

once they put that negress radio on my ship I was done, it was slowly creeping in for a while but that was the line for me

for those that didn't play it, just imagine a stereotypical annoying negress constantly talking while you're trying to relax on your spaceship and place your plushies
At least you can turn her off.

What do you think about Soulframe, is it going to be any good or will it be fed less than their cashcow and then inevitably shutdown?

I think it will be decent for short bursts, but not great enough to be a game you should continuously stick with. I'd expect it to overtake Warframe, fantasy is just a much more popular setting than scifi. The combat seems a bit too slow/janky for me, but the melee-focus is a plus. The artstyle being "Medieval Orokin" put me off at first, but now I kinda like how they are trying to do their own thing instead of following generic trends (mix-matched pseudo-historical armors). Considering what we've seen is an alpha at best (and how much QoL is already in place), the experience should end up a lot more polished than Warframe.

In any case, I'm praying Soulframe ends up being good because there are not many melee-focused, Co-Op fantasy ARPG (with crossplay) out there and I need something to play with my normie friends.

I thought the same, but ended up putting in almost 90 hrs having fun grinding for better gear. I have no idea what it's like now. Last played it in 2018.

The titular Warframes have the most visually imaginative designs I have seen come out of a Western game studio since Blizzard.

They looked good until they started pumping out frames monthly like a 1980s cartoon adding characters to sell toys.

Paired with the Helminth, a lot of older frames lost their purpose, which is why newer frames have to rely on gimmicks to differentiate. Surprised they haven't gone for frames being mere skins for players (or at least with gendered pairs a la Excalibur/Nyx) with fully customizable movesets to the reduce the bloat...but then that is what Soulframe is supposed to be.

tim cain is the reason you can kill her girlfriend infront of her btw, the writer didn't add any options to be mean to her on purpose but tim cain still required her to be killable
He's still a little bickering homo, as indicated by his YooToob channel. Guy comes off as a creep who does all sorts of underhanded passive aggressive things. Like a woman.
Didn't he shill for the Fallout show even though he didn't agree with the "capitalism bad" angle?

Yeah, he got the VIP treatment for some awards show, and seemed to changed his tune afterwards.

Todd probably set him up with the hottest mystery meat rent boy in whatever shithole that was, and Timmy thought to himself "yeah, I could get used to this." He's now planning his glorious return to the gaming world with THE OUTER WORLDS 2 which I'm sure is going to change the face of gaming forever.

Alien sisters, I feel faint.
Originally in interviews and all material leading up to the release of the game; they stated it was a full and feature complete VR title with a full story. However, with the game's release they changed the info/cover image and only after early review copies went out; admitting that it is merely "Part 1 of 2" and you are expected to buy part 2 if you want to see the conclusion of the story.
They also raised the price of the game by a fair bit at the last moment on people, more so in some regions. There is a lot of dishonest behaviour coming from this developer...
The deluxe edition is forced. It just costs more for almost nothing. Devs even admitted on discord that you can't even see them in game really, and it's just a camo for your body and gun that's it. Just one and you can only really see the gun one. It's just a clear grab at your wallet.
Why are gamers so racist?

Why does no one want to play as a strong, sassy black woman of color?

What I find so funny is that they always purposely choose the most hideous of nigresses as protagonists, instead of the ones who don't look near as fugly.

Women can have facial hair too (and I mean cis women too, not just ***** women). There can be different reasons for it. Some cis women have masculine features and PCOS can also do this.

"Women can have peach fuzz too" (accurate) doesn't really answer the question of whether it's a beautiful character. :P

PCOS can be for other reasons too. For example, I know women who are not obese who suffer from both endometriosis and PCOS, which is a pretty common thing but sadly not taken seriously.

While you're not wrong (my ex-fronthole had PCOS) I doubt many woman find characters with these syndromes to be alluring to play as when they are trying to, I don't know, escape reality by playing a video game.

But hey, what the **** do I know about you oh-so mercurial femoids?
