Star Wars Outlaws is introducing new characters to the Galaxy Far, Far Away, and hopefully Jaylen and ND-5 end up being more than their archetypes.
The original character design for the lead character in Ubisoft and Massive Entertainment's Star Wars Outlaws has been leaked.
Theres nothing to see here really. It's a flash of an early build, long before her final design was developed. Every game ever made has gone though this process.
Alot of What the final game is. Just look like they moved away from the to much of a Star Wars look and wanted to make it feel more fresh and original. Key West is also the better design now. Good choices with the changes.
Yeah Key West is no longer insufferable because of some Star Wars game. Maybe in the future you can play this game in Key West like you always dreamed.
I'm still trying to wrap my head around how the DEI stuff relates to games. I know they aren't allowed to have a white person voice a person of color in a game or animation anymore, but why can a person of color voice a white character (like Kay Vess)? I mean I get it from the voice actor standpoint, as they want to support POC actors over non POC ones, but doesn't this hurt representation which is supposed to be one of the main goals of the movement? It is all so confusing.
Because these people have changed the meaning of racism so that they can be openly racist. Forget the fact that white people aren't even the majority race of the world, or even the only ones with bad history. But gotta push that lie in the name of "diversity" and "representation". It's not confusing at all, it's bs being thrown at our faces amd then we're gaslit when we start questioning it.
Seriously, how many more female lead roles are we going to get? I think it's excessive and needs a push back.
I agree. I'm all about representation, but seriously like 75% or more of all recent and upcoming action adventure games have the girl boss main character. It really is becoming excessive and doesn't really make sense. Imagine if every Lifetime movie suddenly was made from the male pov. Again, no problem at all playing as a female lead, but c'mon are male heros not allowed to exist anymore?
The Nerd Stash: "My Star Wars: Outlaws experience at Summer Games Fest 2024 had me walking away less excited about Ubisoft’s upcoming title."
All these smart gaming minds and leadership at Ubi and Disney...yet we get a generic action RPG. Shame!
I don't neccessarily hate the ubi open world formula, what I hate is in game resources that are inflated to make you buy stuff from their in game store. Here's hoping the game is serviceable.
I don't hate the formula I hate the bloated grinding in order to sell dlc to fix the problem they made like in Valhalla. Add in the fact this new ubisoft game is online only and I dont want it.
Star Wars Outlaws seems to be on track to set a new standard for visuals in Star Wars games, and I can't wait for it.
You have way too much riding on the side characters of a game that is several months away from even releasing.
It's UbiSoft. I'm sure they will "subvert sterotypes". I'm just hoping SBI convinces them to finally introduce the human/robot relationship angle along with interspecies love triangles, preferably with wookies.
