Killing the series can mean one of two things:
- killing the series de facto (sales, numbers,etc)
- killing the series in senso (as a worthy sequel, game)

For me, it was the latter for most of them.
All of those games virtually killed the series for me because of how far and shit they were compared to what they had behind.

No Titans actually have drivers, you are thinking about the Dreadnoughts. I think it's rather more Imperial Guard/servitors that command the Titans so they could be female all for what I know.

>>381873636
>I played dow3 for about an hour before refunding and noticed the space marine titan is female, aren't titans the souls of dead space marines
No. Knights have a human pilot coming from a noble household. Traditonnally males, but not impossible for the pilot to be female. They are not marines. Marines go into dreadnoughts if they are mortally injured in combat but still capable of surviving the process.
>and aren't all space marines male?
Yes.

>Also found it amusing they made the only female space marine character overpowered as fuck.
Its really not overpowered. Its an accurate rendition of the power of a superheavy vehicle faced with infantry. The real problem of DoW3 is that the balance is all over the place.

Jesus Christ /pol/ is awful

>>381873636
It's a knight, a mini titan that's beneath the power level of real titans.

The Imperium is actually very egalitarian, one of the only things you could praise it for. Other than lacking a gender bias, it is one of the most horrifying and oppressive governments ever devised and takes notes from every shitty tyrannical system humanity has had.

Solaria's voice lines as you might notice include gems like "show these peasants their place" because she's a knight from a noble house, the typical imperial citizen is functionally a slave.

Furthermore if you read even the slightest amount of fiction, it mentions how chaos and renegade factions are so successful because the average imperial is held so close to the breaking point their entire lives that being sacrificed on an altar to a bloodthirsty god that will summon daemons to hunt down the mortals is actually an improvement over their current situation.

How many of them? The studio might have the same name and some of the core people may be the same but writers/artists and other stuff that matters could have been changed, and it very much seems so.

MD was poorly marketed by today standards. Word of mouth also was pretty negative during the critical opening week due to poor optimization and technical issues, then from people who had beaten the game claiming it was half-assed and basically required DLC to feel complete.

The game itself is fine though. It's a more refined HR, but you can practically feel SE hands choking the devs out of time and content.

>>381875294

I think nothing could have saved it other than a complete overhaul. HR was interesting because it had another take on Deus Ex and features different places, characters and themes from the original. MD was too much of a direct sequel to HR. They should have changed things up a bit more.

But ME2 is still pretty solid gameplay-wise, it still had some hope of salvation. It was ME3 that killed it. Androma was simply the last nail in the coffin

>>381875767
Surprisingly, DoW3 and 8th edition are superficially similar. Which is strange since 8th ed came out after, not before.

>>381872739
It pretty much did though. The way the Jedi/Sith conflict was portrayed triggered Lucas so much he demoted all video games to fanfiction tier in the Star Wars canon and killed the idea of anyone other than an EA affiliated studio making a Star Wars game ever again.

CoD4:MW was a fresh breeze after all the WW2 shooters and especially CoD 3 being the third same instance of shooter all the previous CoD was. Don't you remember?

BF:BC2 I also have no idea about, as everything before was way better. Arguably BC2 was better than everything that followed though, and coming to think of it it was better than BC1 and Battlefield 1943, but that hardly qualifies it.

Doom 4 is way better than Doom 3 in the sense of being Doom. Don't you remember the feel of playing Doom 1/2 vs 3?

HL:BM sure is a step in the right direction of Half Life. Don't you remember how it all started, how the serie got big and why HL2 was hyped in the first place? Without it HL2 would have been a forgotten game that made no sense like TimeShift or something.

>it is one of the most horrifying and oppressive governments ever devised and takes notes from every shitty tyrannical system humanity has had.

To be fair, they don't really have much of a choice, due to constant world-threatening infiltrators such as Genestealers and Chaos heretics. On top of that, the Imperium needs as many guns as possible to hold the line against the alien threats such as Orks and Tyranids, so they have little choice but to work the Imperial citizens to the bone. If the galaxy was at peace, maybe the Imperium would relax.

This is such a bizarre myth spawned from people's lust to hate Lucas. There's no evidence whatsoever that Lucas ever said a single thing about KOTOR, much less doomed it to destruction or something. The game bombed because it was unfinished because it was rushed out for Christmas, so they decided not to make any more. That's it. Lucas didn't personally ascend from Hell to steal your toys.

Wasn't a bad game just a bad halo. It split the community and its population never recovered.

It's a legitimate argument to make though. A game can be good: technically competent, sufficient depth, good gameplay and all that, but it can still appear bad when compared to the expectations of a series that it comes from. Imagine if dark souls 3 had been like the witcher 3 instead. Witcher 3 is a good game but it doesn't do the things that the people who like the souls games would look for in the game, therefore it would be disappointing and a bad game for the series that it's a part of.

Although I'll admit Kiki wolfkill did ruin halo

I liked this one a lot, while the first three games were more or less subsequences of more of the same, Reach added some fresh stuff to the mix with armor abilities and the covenant vs. spartan stuff

On the other hand, it enabled 343 to shit everything up by making sprint permanent and making armor abilities practically obligatory

Or well, idk if halo5 had them but they did add that retarded boost back everyone has and the super mario ground pound you can do

A majority of those are writers, artists or musicians. And very few of them are working these days either.
