Y'know, I was curious why I wasn't enjoying reading SW posts anymore. This experiment has helped me learn why so thank you.

There are no more genuine Cows in System Wars. That is why there are no more interesting arguments, just mockeries thereof. Just Lems dressed as Cows & Sheep doing a terrible job on purpose, hence the "Clown"s like @hardwenzen. Any possible actual counterpoints are glossed over or ignored.

Enjoy your echo chamber, I am sure you have earned it. I will follow @davillain's advice below and stick to general discussion & places that might actually respond with something interesting.

If any of you Lems believe otherwise, just ask yourself, has any Cow or Sheep lately offered a valid counterpoint? Held an argument in their favour instead of giving up after the first response? done anything that wasn't just a joke? And you will have your answer.

@TheEroica: Thank you, hopefully that puts all this to rest.

Then it should be put on Switch too, the more the merrier right?

I'll Hype 8 on Gamespot.

I think it will fall short of 9 or 10 due to localisation issues. Certain lines, like Lily's "it's windy" (4:41 2nd vid) just sound off.

So a high quality gameplay, good story, hampered by poor dubbing and standard first big IP issues.

On Open Critic I would give a low 8 or High 7, due to to the recent Stigma and the certainty at least some critics will try to capitalise. Forced to pick, I will be optimistic and say Low 8

The media wide focus on eve and sexualisation has really helped devalue Stellar Blade.

We have a hype thread showing no gameplay or story for a sci-fi action game, only bad AI art and a costume showcase.

Here are some Story and Gameplay trailers:

What I want to know is, if Helldivers 2 is agreed upon for Xbox release, who is going to port it?

Arrowhead studios seem to have their hands full just keeping the two current platforms running and updated every month.

@last_lap: Everyone has their ideas, but I know who I am and chose not to try and hide that I do have prior knowledge of SW though browsing. That is what matters most to me. Though it did seem to start the rumour mill.

There are always significantly more views than posts on SW, the most popular recent topic has 525 posts to 7,693 views. I do not see how it is a stretch to understand that there are people who read these forums without posting. I know there are, I was one of them. Shout out to all my fellow lurkers.

Back on topic, Fallout 4 actually over took Helldivers yesterday, Congrats. Fallout 76 however has dropped back down by almost two days worth. I think the nostalgia and TV show hype is starting to wear off. F4 wins the popularity contest handily, yet f76 is the one Bethesda/MS most needs players in to sell microtransactions. I will probably wait a few more days before I revisit so we have a better idea of how things are progressing.

Let's be honest though, the real winners in this fight are not Lems or Cows but Hermits & MCGs, for they get to feast on nostalgia and fight for democracy.

Hold up, one final post for today.

I/We've been so focused of Fallout 76 that I did not notice how much Fallout 4 has risen.

Fallout 4 may actually overtake Helldivers!

Helldivers needs a major update to give it a boost, like a new enemy faction.

Fallout 76 looks like it's started to decline again.

@last_lap: Not sure how I can prove either way.

I have been lurking without an account for some time, following SW for laughs.

Lately I felt it got dull, lots of name calling and deflection but no proper arguments, no one calling out false info.

So I Joined to see if I could shake things up. Will be a light poster (a few posts each day) but will aim to substantiate all my claims and accept mistakes, no denial.

@kvallyx: Anything to say on my actual post? No one knows or cares if I am new or an Ult.
(Well, Mods do, but they can judge for themselves).
