I assume there's some gender specific voiced dialogue that would have made decoupling the difficult this late in the production

it feels like if this was true you could solve it with a solution that fuckin kickstarted battletech game found and just select your pronouns

That will probably be what happens if they architected the game well. It should be fairly easy to assign pronouns via implementing variables into the stores of text that call out to a given set of keys based on player selection. Anything audible is likely set in stone as the sheer amount of work and cost required to re-record, encode, implement, and tweak timing to make things fit is likely not a feasible route. Though if they’re allowing for multiple takes based on prey player’s choice then it might be able to be decoupled. All said they should have considered this from the start, especially given that they already let you pick and choose everything else as a central theme of the game.

Woolie was driving the warthog in Halo 1's last mission and it was the greatest thing :allears:

Woolie driving like grandma swamp and then V drifting that poo poo around pillars and kicking off walls was such an amazing contrast.

I like how Woolie compared Zess T's cooking to Breath of the Wild then immediately concluded it must have a chance to fail upon getting a mistake and blamed Zess T.

I'm really enjoying the "split-screen" Halo run they have going. It's the best of both worlds, Woolie and LittleV get a bunch of cool lore to dig down into, and the viewers get a second perspective that actually looks around and takes in all the cool scenery while Woolie is off who knows where staring down at the ground at a 45 degree angle

~Everybody wants to be a cat~
~Because a cat's the only cat~
~Who knows where its at~

So I resisted watching Woolie's KOTOR2 LP for its entire duration because I'm extremely worried that given how poisoned his views on Star Wars have been by Grey Jedi Wank that he's going to buy into Kreia's bullshit instead of getting that the entire point of the story is how wrong and horrible she is. But since I have a lot of spare time the next couple weeks I decided I'd give it a chance.

Then I got to Episode 12 and based on its contents I feel like I'm going to end up hating myself if I keep watching it because Woolie's going to give Kreia a standing ovation for her scheme and declare that this was the True Star Wars All Along like Zach Synder failing to understand that Watchmen was a deconstruction. If I'm wrong feel free to spoil me so I have some reason not to drop this LP like a rock.

Woolie fucks up a skill check in episode 43, Kreia's hair gets cut short and he's fully on her side from that point.

The point of Kreia isn't whether she's right or wrong it's that regardless of whatever points she may have, her solution to them would be the greatest death toll of any Star Wars villain, and you have to prevent that. LV underlines that she is, in the end, Sith, not Grey Whatever.

The actual tiresome Star Wars opinion of the LP is that they are both Last Jedi haters.

The actual tiresome Star Wars opinion of the LP is that they are both Last Jedi haters.

The fact that being the Biggest Evil is the inevitable end of Kreia's philosophy and therefore her philosophy is wrong actually IS the entire point. Her philosophy sounded reasonable because it was meant to, she's the Slippery Slope Incarnate and her whole purpose is to illustrate to "Can't we just have to cool Darkside Powers without the Sith philosophy?!" Star Wars fans, like Woolie, that no, you cannot. Using the dark side of the Force necessitates embracing a philosophy that will ultimately drat you, even if that philosophy is supposedly different than the Sith and supposedly addresses the flaws in the Jedi's ways. Grey Is Bullshit is the core of KOTOR2, and I would argue it was the underpinning of Jolee's character arc in KOTOR1.

Considering that desperately wanting Grey to be A Thing and being mad that the film soundly rejected it was the beating heart of Woolie's contempt for Last Jedi, I'd hoped that that message might have penetrated, but it sounds like LV did exactly what Pat did before him and steered Woolie's perception of Star Wars' moral themes in a lovely direction.
