    Loot Crates have to be the 'PLEASE STOP!' winner this year, it's not even a competition.

      As someone who's bought plenty of overwatch boxes and might be part of the problem: 100%, no doubt or anything that even gets close

      Absolutely nothing wrong with lootboxes when done right. Overwatch does it 100% correct. Haven't spent a dime on them and I have just about everything I'd want from that game.

    I wasn't even mad I bought that first game for $40 and played it once with my friend. It was just okay but nothing I wanted to keep playing. I liked BF2 on OG Xbox. This sounds like a Free-to-play game but more boring

    New June 27th 2019 edit below.
    Original comment: It’s a shame that the story feels like fan fiction. I listen to Podcast Unlocked and one of the writers of Battlefront 2’s campaign, Mitch Dyer, seemed like a nice guy who means well and unapologetically loves Star Wars. He left IGN and moved to Canada to go write the story for this game. I actually got excited when I heard he was one of the writers, I thought that at the very least the story should have been good if not decent. :/
    As for the micro transactions, this is really worrying how hard EA is pushing them. I’m worried that Anthem, which feels like Bioware’s last shot before EA closes them down, will be littered with it. Mass Effect: Andromeda’s multiplayer already had them but you could easily ignore them there, and I was playing it for the single player stuff so I rarely noticed it, but in the off chance we get another Mass Effect then just how in your face will the micro transactions be in that, both in the multiplayer and single player? And then there’s Titanfall 3. Man, that’s just gonna be full of them. Respawn and Bioware are pretty much the only things EA have that I’m actively interested in, and I just know they’re going to run them into the ground with micro transaction galore.
    Edit: So I finally finished Star Wars Battlefront 2's campaign, both the original campaign and the Resurrection campaign. I finished it 3 hours ago and I've already forgotten most of it. However I do remember saying to myself, multiple times, "Man this is mediocre". It was such a paint-by-numbers story, all the characters are kinda one note. It was so bland and forgettable. I very rarely say this, but I feel confident I could have come up with a better story. Do not buy this game for the campaign. There are better shooter campaigns out there.

    • @chinakat154
      @chinakat154 6 років тому +1

      I’m sure he probably wrote an interesting story, but then EA and Disney read it and went, “Wait, where is Luke? Where is Rey?? We have a fuckin movie coming out man, get the faces that everyone knows in there!”

    • @Newt0rz

      I think they do a better job of characterizing the First Order as having been in sleeper cells until episode 7. But that's legit the only part I remember and think positively of lol.

      I imagine it's because GB officially puts up the VODs of the Bombcast.

    • @myggenmyggen9325
      @myggenmyggen9325  6 років тому +7

      Basically, yeah. I sometimes upload long clips like this one, and it feels like crossing some invisible line to upload 35 minutes of the video. I considered going over to video when they began recording the Bombcast, but it would mean that I wouldn't feel good about uploading longer clips.
