What did they mean by this

It means dykes on tumblr can write all the fanfiction they want without having to acknowledge any of the actual "lore". Same shit went on with Overwatch like said and Blizzard even admitted it.

Naturally its a tournament to crown the best nigger goy as the gibs have run dry so they can only afford gibs for the last one standing

First Person Hero Shooters are the worst genre in the history of video games and cannot die fast enough.

I would play a million battle royales before I play a multiplayer game where dying is punished with nigger tranny dolphinkin insulting you.

>We journalists will worship whatever is popular because that's how we make the most money
>And that's a good thing

sigh

its clickbait no matter what they write wether you agree or disagree with their point its all for you maggots to argue about nonsense

>clearly a third barrel on the tank, even if it's small

>waah stop teabagging me

But there's a token white guy that loves gassing people.
Joke failed.

This is the exact thing Dark Souls gets circlejerked over constantly, only it's no narrative and proactive NPCs, all lore.
Same reason why TF2 and Touhou are popular too, backstory is a nice accessory for the fanbase, not a chain to be bond by.

I see what they mean but eventually one set of universal headcanons will emerge so.

The games got lore
>Humanity lives in the deepest reaches of explored space in a vast region known as The Frontier.
>It contains many well known and inhabited star systems, but many more worlds remain uncharted.
>Most people will never travel this far away from normal civilization, but for pioneers, explorers, mercenaries, outlaws, and soldiers, the Frontier offers both adventure and oppatunity

Guess people suffering from malformed personality disorders need a blank slate to conciously self insert so they can empathise with ther fingerless glove reloader hands...

It means that these games journalists were paid off by Apex Legends devs. Literally
>Sure the game has not story, BUT if you think about it that's actually great!

"were too lazy to come up with shit wright it yourselves"

who's on Yea Forums playing "battle royale" games "for the lore"? shut off your computer and go read a book.

>What did they mean by this

It's okay to be lazy if you're wealthy and popular.

Yea Forums would shit on quake for not having a story if people liked that it didn't have one.

Means the scum that complained about male power fantasy are now making their own power fantasies. Revelaing to themselves, again, that they are hypocrites

It's not even the idea of playing a game for the lore, it's just the idea of "This game doesn't have lore, and that's good!" that people find galling. I'd also roll my eyes if an article came out saying how good it is that the next FF game didn't have a pause option because it "breaks immersion"

Joke? That guy was also on gibs. This is the lore.

Teabagging is universal brainlet. Not character oriented

One must always account for those unfortunates born defective, as in literally not developed correctly, luckily its normally taken care of early on because science can tell us if the child would be a boy or girl formed correctly :^)

Oh so it's like touhou

They mean to make ad revenue taking a stance only people who care about the inclusive-themed lore will react to. Related outlets will probably put out a Apex's Diversity Is Its Strength article in response to piss off the other colored team. To an optimistic person who just cares about vidya its probably just clickable.

And he is participating literally to test out the gas on said nigs. He doesn't care about the gibs

The game doesn't need anything more than a setting and characters to play as, and the lore exists only if you're interested in reading it on a background site and two prior games. The characters just don't have storylines, which would just get in the way of a multiplayer-only game. Do you play Unreal Tournament for the character arcs or something?

REGGIE NOOOOOO

That the "fans" will do it for free.

Not even remotely comparable. Teabagging is an act of the player that has nothing to do at all with the game's design.
Also EVERY TIME YOU DIE
NOT JUST SOMETIMES
EVERY TIME

NO GAME HAS EVER HAD A SCRIPTED TEABAG EVENT FOR A BASIC DEATH

If anything I am more disgusted that I can't engage in bantz and instead have no other choice but to sit there and listen to a shit character with a shit voice actor personally insult my skill with zero chance of real rebuttal.
>inb4 hurr just never die for any reason then durr

Apex makes the shitfest running simulator of a genre known as Battle Royale even more intolerably void of fun combat by insulting you every time you die.

If you genuinely enjoy some asian jamaican woman telling you that you are incompetent for not playing a video game like the person who developed it then your opinion doesn't matter to me.

It does, allows you to keep your brand strong. Look at Overwatch.

Vague open ended lore is autist bait. You give a portion of the community vague malleable things to write fanfics on and escape reality through and you've carved a niche for people who will generate money and noise you needn't hire. Look at Undermeme.
