PREVIOUSLY ON JEW WARS:

>EA unveils their new MTX system for Shekelfront II where you need to grind a straight 40 hours so you can have enough Star Shekels to make Darth Vader or Luke available to play without having to shell over additional bucks to EA

>Lootboxes can contain some random cosmetics, but they can also randomly drop a hero so they can be unlocked permanently, on top of that it drops crafting parts which are needed to craft and upgrade Star Cards, which are required to improve certain heroes and enable such ridiculous boosts such as having 100% damage reduction during an ability with maxed out Star Cards whereas at level 1 it's 0%

>the credits you need to buy shit is gained depending on how much you play rather than how well you perform, on top of that credit gain is incredibly low, practically encouraging you to buy lootboxes if you want those upgrades in a reasonable timespan

>the whole system is incredibly P2W, some goy asks on Reddit why it had to take him $80 in lootboxes to even unlock Vader, after which some EA community manager responds that the enormous grinding was put in place to 'encourage a sense of pride and progression' when you can literally pay to win

>this was such unfathomable bullshit to even the biggest retard, after which the comment was downvoted a whopping 676k times, which earned the award for Reddit's most downvoted comment and multiplying the previous high score (26k downvotes) by a whopping 26x multiplier

>news spread of this event and goys started canceling their pre-orders

>EA lowers the unlock costs by 75% claiming that they really listen to the community, but being the Jews that they are, they also lowered the credit reward for completing the singleplayer campaign by 75%

>that said, unlocking everything as it stands will take you 4528 hours or $2100

>an Arcade Mode which lets you earn Credits to use in Multiplayer prevents you from playing it for over ten hours if you play it more than an hour, much like a mobile game

>some supposed EA dev whines about getting death threats so the journos had an excuse to downplay the whole thing for their masters, but somehow fucking Kotaku found out the guy must've been a fake

>eventually some were clever enough to relate Disney, EA and Shekelfront II to #gambling because of the lootbox system

>which in turn prompted the Dutch and Belgian Gambling Commissions to investigate whether lootboxes can be considered gambling, on top of prompting several other news outlets to link Battlefront II to gambling for negative PR

>an AMA was held on Reddit so DICE could put water under the bridge, but basically nothing of importance was answered as the most upvoted and pressing question got unanswered, and all answers boiled down to 'we are looking at (((the data))) and will continue making adjustments based on what we find'

>most gaming journalists couldn't really look past the MTX either, resulting in a paltry Metacritic score of 75 for the PS4 version with a user score of 0.9

>the singleplayer hyped up an Imperial campaign where you play as a Stormtrooper, but you end up defecting after six or so missions anyways

>as it turns out, the singleplayer is also ridiculously unpolished

>the Danish police twitter account is warning people how to stay away from scam artists (and Battlefront II)

>Iden Versio, a captive on the Rebel Mon Calamari Star Cruiser Invincible Faith, is interrogated by the starship's captain, who implores Iden to hand over secret codes to unlock an intercepted Imperial transmission. Iden refuses and awaits as her droid sneaks through the star cruiser's ventilation systems and frees her from her cell. The Rebels are unaware that Iden allowed herself to be captured in order to erase the transmission, thus not allowing the Emperor's plan to be compromised. Iden successfully erases the transmission, triggering an alarm that alerts the Rebel troopers on the ships of her escape. Iden fights her way through the ship, eventually reaching a hangar and launching herself into space where she is intercepted by the Corvus, the flagship of Inferno Squad. Before the Rebel Star Cruiser can fire, the Corvus jumps into hyperspace. Iden walks to the bridge and confirms the mission's success to Gideon Hask and Del Meeko. A time jump occurs to the Battle of Endor depicted in Return of the Jedi, where Admiral Garrick Versio witnesses the destruction of the Executor and death of Admiral Piett. On Endor, Iden, Hask, and Meeko secure the perimeter around the ruined shield generator, and watch with shock and horror as the second Death Star explodes. Vice Admiral Sloane orders a full retreat, leaving Imperial stormtroopers and ground forces stranded on Endor, though Admiral Versio awaits as Inferno Squad recover TIE fighters and escape the planet, which is being overrun by Rebel forces. The Corvus is attacked during their escape, but Inferno fends off Rebel bombers. Iden meets with her father on his Star Destroyer Eviscerator while Hask and Meeko remain on the Corvus.

>Above Vardos, Admiral Versio presents a Messenger droid to his daughter and confirms to Iden that the Emperor has died. The Messenger droid, donned in red robes reminiscent of the Emperor's royal guard, displays a hologram of the late Emperor issuing his last command: to begin Operation: Cinder at once. Iden attempts to ask what their target is, but the Messenger refuses to communicate with her, stating that she is not verified. Admiral Versio sends his daughter to an Imperial shipyard above Fondor to protect Moff Raythe and his Star Destroyer Dauntless, which hosts experimental satellites vital to the success of Operation: Cinder. At Fondor, the Dauntless comes under attack from a Rebel Star Cruiser, but Iden is able to board the Rebel starship with Hask and disable its ion cannons. Afterwards, they are ordered by Moff Raythe to attack the Imperial shipyard itself, which Iden is skeptical of, but nevertheless follows his orders and frees his Star Destroyer from the locked clamps. Afterwards, the Dauntless opens fire on the Rebel cruiser, destroying it.

>After, Inferno Agent Del Meeko is sent to the uninhabited world of Pillio and ordered to destroy one of Palpatine's hidden bases, when he is attacked and captured by the native wildlife. During this mission, he is encountered by Luke Skywalker, who helps him disarm the base's defenses and fend off the local wildlife. Upon discovering that the base is nothing more than a storehouse for Palpatine's spoils of conquest, Meeko and Luke part amicably, and Meeko himself begins to question the Empire's goals and motives after Luke lets him leave, giving him advice on being better than the Empire.

>Following this, Iden and Inferno Squad are sent to the Imperial-controlled world of Vardos, in order to retrieve Protectorate Gleb, who is deemed by Versio to be important enough to rescue from Operation Cinder. As the satellites for Operation Cinder begin destroying the planet with terrible storms, Iden and Meeko as well as most of Inferno Squad try to evacuate the civilians as well as Gleb, causing Agent Hask to betray them. Disillusioned by the Empire's desires for destruction on Vardos, Iden and Meeko evacuate civilians and escape off world, now traitors to the Empire. Hask, meanwhile, is promoted for successfully retrieving Gleb.

>After escaping the Imperial Fleet, Iden and Del, now branded Traitors, seek out the Rebel Alliance and are taken to General Lando Calrissian, who gives them the choice to help stop Operation: Cinder when it is deployed on Naboo, or to escape and make new lives for themselves. Choosing to help, they aid Leia Organa in helping protect Naboo, destroying the satellites for Operation: Cinder and reactivating the Planet's defenses when Imperial forces attack Theed. After the Planet is liberated, Inferno Squad joins the New Republic, seeking to right the wrongs they committed and help liberate the galaxy.

No. They can't resist buying these games and playing with their friends. Pier pressure dominates how normalfags go about their lives. Even with the decades of evidence that the company is pure evil, they still buy and enjoy their games.
