    I dont even fricking know why they do it at this point. Do they really think their man demographic is girls? Girls as a gamer demographic is already low because usually they have better shit to do in their lives then sit in computer chairs and watch a screen but frick me why cant men have any hobbies or niche groups or game series or fricking anything for themselves, i gurantee maybe fricking 10 women in the whole world played this game. And half of them only played it because their boyfriend did or they streamed it with their cleavage out

        The Western world is likely to soon experience massive civil unrest and poverty due to inflation, the fallout from Ukraine, and misguided Green polices. Actual war with Russia, if it happens, will make things 10x worse (even though the aforementioned Green policies will be shelved) leading to unprecedented bouts of anarchy. In such times women will have a lower status than they've had since the first half of the 20th century.

      From what I heard actually Gears did have a surprising number of female fans but of course this isn't anywhere near enough to justify what they did to the identity of the series. I honestly would have rather they went in that direction some were speculating with the first trailer of the fourth game. That it would take a more survival horror route and you'd be facing these beast type of creatures instead of facing the "lol not locust but totally locust" enemies you face now. They also should have put it on another planet setting in many years into the future away from the events of the original trilogy of games. Such a missed opportunity honestly. The multiplayer could have even stayed the same as always but at least the single player could have been way more interesting than this crap.

      People thinking this is about demographics or market share are making mistake. It's ultimately about the subversion of reality. If something is normal that implies a certain deterministic worldview fills the overly socialised with a sense of anxiety. If you say "men like violence and chainsaw machineguns" the overly socialised thinks they're proving some point defying reality by making it woman centric

Even if the setting is hyper masculine and gruesome because they want to take away from men and show off that women can do anything a man can. REPRESENTATION MATTERS!!!! GIRLS ARE EMPOWERED NOW!!!

    The series was already stagnant, they offloaded it to B tier devs who just keep copy pasting the original. That's why you get that crowbcat video. These devs are completely out of ideas and have no creativity whatsoever, so "the same game but it's a girl now" is the only thing they have left to possibly get any interest.

    So of course it just gets pushed aside by battle royale games which are actually creative and new.

    I hated the semi-open world structure. It ruined the pacing and I'll probably never play it again because of that even though I replayed 1-3 how many times. Being stuck in one area for hours kills the sense of adventure the older games had, especially 2 and 3, going from new locale to new locale. The new enemies just aren't as fun to fight and don't have as much variety as classic locust anyways. Whoever decided robots belonged as a major enemy factions in GOW shall boil in piss inshallah

    The story was about her connection to the Myrrah as her granddaughter and gave us a lot of explanation of what the Locust truly were. In no way was Gears 5 some moron feminist woke power fantasy. The worst character in the new Gears games is Del anyways, it's hilarious how the choice between him and JD was presented like it was difficult to choose in anyway.

      Here's the thing: did anyone actually care about what the Locust were? Most just accepted the fact that they were humanoid monsters, nothing more and nothing less. The same with Myrrah, at most i thought she was just a psychic from the Hope facility that got dumped into Locust territory so she could end up dying.

            Them being fricked super soldiers and rising up to completely wipe out humanity is fitting considering how fricked the COG were with human experimentation and how them and the CIR were about to wipe themselves out over Imulsion anyways. Hammer of Dawn strikes alone were laying waste to the planet, having their little science experiment from many decades prior coming to bite them in the ass and forcing humanity to reevealuate what they needed to do was essentially karmic retribution.

            I also just like stories that have races that are created by another race but develop their own indentity and become more than a simple creation

    What was the point of making it her story? IIRC the whole time we're playing when the girl is the NPC everyone is patting her on the back for doing nothing and when she complains about a headache everyone comforts her. moronic lol.

    Is this the designated incel thread? If people actually played the game they know that this is probably the least “woke” feminist game in years. Literally just because you play as a woman there’s a schizo meltdown. Honestly Kaits probably the realist character in the game apart from Fahz. You’ve got Del who spends the whole of 4 and 5 acting like a cringe marvel Character, doing Rock Paper Scissors to see who will step into a hole first and crying about a robot and JD who’s just another Nathan Drake. I’d much rather play as her than follow the adventures of those two cringy fricks. Her and fahz should’ve been the duo.

    I hate cover shooters, that shit is the most neutered form of shooting game you can possibly make

      because its not about the shooting. its about the movement lol. Gears is wallbouncing and sliding all around like a jackass and evaporating the people who DONT have movement. not ADS Lancering lol. the whole point of the game is to slide around on your ass all day like ice skates and chunk people with Gnasher then play for Powerweapons and cheese kills to further stroke your inflated ego. Did you not find it wierd that a lot of the PvP modes focused on Gnasher gameplay?

      if you want a straight forward cover shooter unironically you chose the wrong game. This game is about the thrill of CQC and flipping your coin vs his.

      Gears gameplay was pretty much perfected is the thing. This is a good thing to me. They perfected the formula by tuning it until it was perfect with each game. I would say by 3 it was already perfected. The game does cover shooting different and better than all other games out there. It is fast pace and takes some skill to get good at it.

      yeah I realized this. It really is at a "where do you go from here" point. like we are just gonna do a new release every 3 or 4 years where you add a handful of new weapons or a new grenade type? and a few more character skins to the roster? even in the PvE stuff like Horde mode I find myself thinking "the only way this could be better now would be if we could do custom maps I guess".

    I like the diversity of the Gears cast. I never cared for the Gears characters past just that. theyre just skins. you know like alternate costumes from Time Splitters Multiplayer or something. I didnt give a shit about the story just that we had a wide range of personalities and accents and looks to choose from (one of the strongest parts of TF2). Them replacing all the testorone roided monkeys with Gen-Z whole-food microbrew types was actually fine because thats just for the main story (who the frick buys shooting games for the story???) and in the online multiplayer you could still pick good ol Cole Train, Baird or the ultrachad himself Anthony Carmine.

    I THINK the true reason gears failed is because its stagnated and hasnt/isnt willing to try anything new. you know like 10 years later and its still wallbounce gnasher city. Its not BAD per say but I think they need to re-align expectations and realize that they will only ever be a increasingly decreasing niche crowd instead of a "everybody" game like Halo or Cowadoody.

    Going full Red Dawn on the Locust as bunch of dumb Teenagers is funny to me too.
