The 501 was littarly a Division in the third reich (the nazi's ) if i remember corretly.
Other way around. The 501st was a US paratrooper regiment that the founder of the 501st's father served in. Yeah I don't get how naming your group of people cosplaying as the bad guys is honoring your father's service either.
@blackout62: That's fine. I wouldn't mind seeing that. Have anything, in particular, you'd like to see tackled?
Off the top of my head, Wildlands is a US interventionist fantasy glamorizing some of the worst imperialist action the country has taken; it's built off willful misunderstanding of the political climate of Bolivia, disregard by the developers of any of the political statements implied or otherwise by the game, terrible sociopathic characters spouting terribly accented Spanish from nearly all angles, and all in all furthers my theory that Ubisoft just doesn't like Latinos.
That all said, damn could I go for a new Splinter Cell game. In a perfect world it's a Splinter Cell game more focused on nuanced enjoyable characters than trying to wow the audience with spectacle and also is inspired by Riley MacLeod's The Queer Masculinity of Stealth Games, but that's pretty much impossible so I'll settle for any attempt to reignite the stealth action genre.
minus The Division since I feel like that's its own thing
My headcanon is that every Ubisoft property ends with The Division. Watch_Dogs? Far Cry? Assassin's Creed? All the Clanc? All gone in a global wave of smallpox.
Wait, before this goes anywhere else I feel the need to be pedantic and clarify that the clip isn't actually Giant Bomb related but a clip of Dan playing Fallout in an unrelated Youtube video.
Dude, the staff is like 40% coastal California natives. Saying like too much is like one of our birthrights. Quick trying to force their diction to your hoity toity standard of English ya’ damn linguistic imperialist.
