[@UltravioletNomad]

Hot take, Hero Factory made better use of the CCBS than G2, and I'm not talking about the aesthetic of the parts being a better match. The entire conception of CCBS is that armor attach point and limb attach points are the same, and that means that smaller sets get to be fully posable with a basic skeleton, whereas bigger sets can make a complex lattices of flexible joints, like say building up realistic shoulder blades. Because even the smallest links still had a free ball joint, armor could still be layered on these larger woven structures, and with technic pins still accessible you could still tie in older Bionicle parts or make certain parts still rigid with classic technic lift arms and bars. Compare the Larger and non-humanoid Hero Factory sets to anything from G2 and you will see that this is exactly what they do, creating interesting non-standard skeletons and layering the existing armor pieces in interesting ways. But lets be honest here, the G2 Toa weren't badly designed, in fact they were great, the gear function was well integrated and the posability and stature of the models was good. No, the real issue is that they made next to no new armor or accent/texture pieces for the series. And that's like the whole point of that third layer, to give different series unique textures, but I guess after the mask and weapons they didn't have the budget. But if thats the case, why even bother trying? Presumably a big reason Lego dropped Bionicle is because they were shying away from series that heavily relied on new and unique molds for every season, why try again if you know that the greebly, kitbashy, texture is what made the series iconic? Regardless, I wanted to mention what CCBS SHOULD have been able to do, because while I can seriously praise the Toa, the bad guys sucked, there were barely any Rahi, and no vehicles, but Hero Factory had all of that, meaning it was not an inherent limitation of CCBS, just a total lack of confidence or ingenuity.

Wait what? The game was all in Mr Callisto’s head as he was dying from Being-a-Torso Syndrome? But that’s stupid!

[@seapower2109]

I cant wait for the sequel where jacob comes back as darth callisto and only that other girl from the boys can talk him out of his murder trance

[@thecosmicentity5597]

Callisto Protocol just looks very uninteresting. Instead of making something new with elements of Dead Space they just made Dead Space, but bad.

This game proved to be one of the most overhyped, overpromised and underdelivered games in a long time, they seriously cut off the ending of the base game leaving it in a lazy and lame cliffhanger to then sell the actual ending as a separated DLC 7 months later that barely lasts 2 hours and all of it to somehow achieve a worse ending than the vanilla game haha not to mention that there's literally a single new enemy type which are re-used robots from the main campaign but now they're infected cause why not

[@thetreelander7378]

oh my god they actually did the worse ending possible.

[@freshglizzy3763]

Ironic that both Dead Space 3 and Callisto both have a real ending locked behind DLC

[@chrisdaughen5257]

I hated this DLC so much. I thought the devs were going to explore Cole’s cult and maybe even have you fight him as a mutant for the final boss. There’s a low chance there’s going to be a sequel so making Cole the final boss could have given some finality to the title. But instead, they double down on Jacob’s guilt and have Waller constantly chant at him to keep fighting. Such a lame send off.

[@applecrumpies224]

This is essentially the game repackaged as DLC expect our protagonist wakes up . 😂 To think I almost wasted another cent on any additional content they had to offer. They should've kept with the original ending. Whichever that maybe because I'm still stuck at one of the boss fights. You spend ten minutes running and dodging then the fucker gets smart and takes a chunk right out of him. 😭

One of my greatest “I’ll pass” games.

[@yes-pn1gm]

Thanks for this mate. Just got the platinum trophy thanks to playstation plus putting this up for "free" Wasn't spunking 23 quid to see this half baked ending 😂

[@daddygoose7866]

how the hell did this game get a dlc???

[@nemynoodl3]

This game is definitely a good example of good visuals trying to hide every other issue the game has. Truly a pinnacle of mid games. At least it's not as broken as Cyperpunk lmao

2:27 My man, try navigating the skill tree in Kingdoms of Amalur. Nothing can beat that clusterf@ck.

[@ckmishn3664]

6:15 "Unlock the hammer" What, not going to make a Hammerlock reference? I'm disappointed.

[@TheManBehindTheSlaughter6669]

so the devs pulled an asuras wrath locking the true ending behind DLC but unlike asuras wrath this game isn't a masterpiece to save it.

[@FireCrisps]

this game was so bad i didn't even bother with the DLC, straight up scam having the ending in DLC.
