Is Grim the best stronk womyn?
No one cares, boring people always make the shittiest threads
>>381715229
Did she start doing field ops or does she still just talk into Fisher's ear?
>>381715469
She did field in Conviction, but in Blackedlist she's the voice in your year.
>>381715229
Nah, she's a whore for Fisher.
>>381715469
she's not a field agent retard, she's an analyst. at least she was until ubisoft decided to turn the series into gears of war: stealth edition.
>>381715229
How old is she now? Early 40s?
>>381718339
She's definitely younger than nu-Sam and nu-Sam can't be older than forties,
Early 30s probably.
Grimm and Fisher's dynamic was way better in Chaos Theory.
>>381718561
There's no nu-Sam, Ubi hasn't said anything about reboots nor retcons. Sam still turns 60 this year, and she is probably late 30s - early 40s in age.
>those old pop-culture-related quips showing how young Anna was and how old Sam was
we'll never get to hear Michael Ironside talking about the Gipper and lasers again...
>>381718914
Just admit it anon, you have an age gap fetish.
>>381718914
so what's the in-canon reason for Sam sounding younger and completely different and also looking way younger
>turns 60
riiiiiiiiight, the blacklist sam was totally a guy pushing 60, you fucking idiot
>>381715785
>Blackedlist
>>381715229
She was hot as fuck in that one. I don't race mix, but I'd be willing to lay with the sexy negress.
>inb4 someone claiming red hair is even remotely white genes
>>381719309
There is none you fucking idiot, but its not a reboot or remake, its a sequel to conviction, Ubisoft just didnt care.
>>381720720
>change character's voice, body, apparent age, face, entire personality and movement style
>somehow the continuity of the canon is fine
only reason conviction and blacklist get a pass is because I actually enjoy the gameplay, but we all know it's not the old Sam anymore
>>381721376
conviction was indeed the old Sam. it was supposed to be his send-off story but the millennials at ubisoft weren't smart enough to think of a new protagonist for shitlist.
>>381721376
I dont think you get it, its literally just Ubisoft not giving a shit, but its still supposed to be the same character.
>>381721526
>create new protagonist
You fuckers would have bitched and whined regardless and (s)he would have gotten the Raiden(MGS2)/Nero(DMC4) treatment.
Damned if you do, damned if you don't
Conviction was complete shit, it's only fitting since it was Ubishit millennials and their HURRR MURICA SUX XD story.
>>381721685
who would have bitched and complained? the vast majority of the original fanbase has moved on. a new protagonist could have put this series back on the map.
Why did they make Sam a middle aged, former navy seal in the first place? Did they originally plan for him to die at some point and get replaced by someone he mentored or something
>>381722462
I think they were just establishing that he's a seasoned veteran who's been everywhere and seen everything, so he would keep a cool head and be able to work alone on the ground.
>>381722462
because those are the kinds of people that the CIA and the NSA recruit for field missions with a low percentage of success.
>>381722918
CIA recruits seasoned operators from the SEAL teams to join the SAD (Special Activities Division). Despite this, Army CAG (Combined Applications Group known as Delta) are still the absolute top-tier.
>>381723160
I thought the CIA recruits from anywhere, provided that said recruit has the skillset they need.
>>381723398
Aside from the number and color SEAL teams, yeah, they recruit from a few pockets e.g. Air Force combat controllers and the Army special forces (what you know publicly as green berets); but the bulk of their acquisitions comes from the SEALs.
>>381718651
Everything was better in Chaos Theory.
>>381723160
okay? i didn't say anything about delta dickweed. go watch the military channel or something.
>>381723919
Blacklist was okay, I guess. I just wish we could get another Chaos Theory.
>>381725560
It was still the closest we have got to chaos theory since chaos theory.
Blacklist is still my fave tho.
>>381725810
I will admit it at least is a real stealth game, if not an arcade one. The main issue I have with the game is the story. Edgy young Sam just sucks compared to the dry wit of old Sam.
>>381725992
I will admit that if ironside voiced sam in blacklist, i would put it above chaos theory, as i loved the countdown to terrorist attacks in BL, it gave me a very '24' feel that no other game replicates for me.
>>381726721
It lacked the writing that old Sam also had.
Sam saying sorry to Grimm after sharing that he was in a bunker in Iraq and she was in tenth grade was a highlight for me.
The new splinter cell games were so good. I guess they didn't sell good tho since ubi hasn't bought them back yet.
>>381728180
It's because ubi is funneling all their cash into asscreed because the normies love open world games and and that doesn't really work with splinter cell.
I bet we will see a return in a few years since splinter cell's only real competition was MGS and that series is currently dead.
