Hmmm OP slaps the term SJW on something that has nothing to do with SJWs and then brings up Witcher. So it just another Wednesday on the internet.

Sigh. Is it just me or is SJW the new version of the boogieman? For it seems the moment someone doesn't like something its a 50/50 shot that they are going to try and blame SJW. Oh. And no not everything under the sun needs to be like the Witcher, if you feel that way go play The Witcher. Any term or concept used to self-critique the left within the left, gradually becomes adopted by the right, even a shifting and aging into it right that thinks they're 'driven' into it or 'really a moderate', in more and more absurd and insulting ways. Any, even small value 'SJW' might have had in the earlier 2010s has all but evaporated as the low order thinking (and opportunists, and just people who like antagonizing) took over. That's my politics fill of the day.

Does this count as the daily "Witcher thread in the Mass Effect section" thread? I think mention of that game needs to be banned... I am sick of hearing the continued false refrain of "TW3 did it better!". That is not an objective fact. Besides, this is a Bioware forum... TW3 fanboying should be in the CDPR focused forums.I don't understand the praise that game gets. IMO the witcher sucks donkey balls.

Outlaws and Raider wear helmets, so they don't pop. Fiends and other "wildlife" have larger heads and generally take more than a single shot to kill them, so they don't pop. Kett heads are encased in a bone exoskeleton that results from the changes that occur during exaltation, meaning their heads will pop when shot but angara heads won't.

It would take a very high caliber weapon to blow the head of a actual person anyway. Popping a Kett's head with a Predator, while satisfying. is a bit hard to believe if you are well versed in irl ballistics.

Agreed... but tell me then... when has IRL ballistics ever had much to do with any game and the showing of various types of blood, guts and gore to sensationalize things (or to water them down, even)?

Never played it... but then one out of how many shooters of various types made to date? Also, add in the number of games that show a ridiculous amoung of dismemberment during sword play (e.g. TW3).

I agree, ARMA is in it's 3rd installment now and that is really the only series that portrays ballistics accurately. I don't think anythings goes more over the top then Gears of War's Lancer...

Red Orchestra and Rising Storm do try, but RS2 'Nam is about as buggy as they come. Yet when I said something was wrong I got told to fuck off by fanboys, so RS2 'Nam, while full of gamebreaking bugs, will be GOTY. Andromeda, while playable at release, will be known as the utter failure.

One thing you need to understand there, my man, is that BioWare's fans are fucking bipolar as hell and not even lithium can help...

Could you elaborate, catastrophy? I merely said that it seems like they were deliberately written to be a race of unsympathetic villains. I said this because the blatantly nasty portrayal of the kett in the game contradicts the claim in the video I linked about the kett being designed so the fans could empathize with them. I also never mentioned anything about SJW's.
P.S. I checked the dates of the posts before my own and didn't know I was making a necro thread. That was not my intention, sorry.

I think they kett were made to be almost totally unsympathetic in MEA (except when it comes to possibility of reversing their condition) , but potentially sympathetic as the series continues. And it is easier to engender a sympathy when there is more humanoid aspects already present.
