To me, as a movie on its own, The Last Jedi is a good film with minor narrative inconsistencies.

I spend more time making mods for it now than playing it.įinally, what'd you think of The Last Jedi ? When I saw all the great cosmetic mods on PC, it lured me into buying the game on that platform. This was early on in the pre-release trial, we weren't aware of the issues then. Hourigan: Well, on console, me and a friend shared a copy of the game. The game could be fixed if they phased Star Cards out and replaced them with a cosmetic system, much like Overwatch has.Ĭouldn't you have just…not bought the game? Imagine if in tennis someone had a card that let them run faster, it’s like that.

Hourigan: The game itself, at its core, is a pretty fun game, it’s just made infuriating when these Star Cards are used. Is there something EA could do to fix the game for you, or is it fundamentally flawed? All I ask from EA is to deliver a method that can still make them money and not break the game. Their req packs in Halo 5 make loads of money, but they are cosmetic only and don’t affect the gameplay experience. What I meant is that there needs to be a balance between being pro-consumer and making money. Hourigan: I’m not ignorant enough to think they all aren’t money first, of course they are. You talk about EA having a 'money first ideology.' Aren't all publishers like that? It’s a real shame Disney entrusted Star Wars game development to such an anti-consumer company. I stick around honestly because I’m a Star Wars fan and with EA's monopoly of the brand, it means I don’t really have the choice to play something else. Just because you can’t pay for loot boxes doesn’t mean they still don’t unbalance the game. We still have an awful squad system, and the loot box grind is still there. The changes made had nothing to do with my continued interest in the game. Hourigan: I still play Battlefront II, but mostly on PC, so I can have my criminally fashionable pink Darth Vader outfit. The idea of paying to have advantages over people, especially in a gambling like method like loot boxes, it really disgusts me.Īre you still playing Battlefront II? Were the changes made as part of the reaction to the game's loot boxes enough to keep you interested? Those Star Card loot boxes are a real issue because they unbalance the game, and though they removed the option to pay for them, there are plans to bring it back. He used the slippery slope of if they add cosmetic unlocks there would be pink Darth Vaders running around and that would break canon.īut honestly, even if they did add a pink Darth Vader, I’m sure people would prefer that over the game altering Star Cards we have in the game now.

Hourigan: The pink Darth Vader mod was created as a lighthearted protest to Blake Jorgensen's comments on why there are no cosmetic loot boxes in the game. That prompted you to make a pink Vader mod for Battlefront II? And to see this universe be soiled through EA's money-first ideology, it not only annoyed me, but really took some of the magic out of Star Wars. And it applies to games like Knights of the Old Republic and Republic Commando, as well. They were great theatrical experiences that really made you feel like you were there, like this place was real.

I watched the heroic efforts of Luke Skywalker and cheered him on, I watched the fall of Anakin Skywalker and mourned. The Star Wars universe was a place I’d escape to when I wanted to take a break on life. James “Destauch” Hourigan: Though Star Wars is just a movie series, it’s had a massive impact on me. Waypoint: What's your history with Star Wars?
