PGI, thank you for the great videos. It's especially great to see actors playing their characters. We are waiting for the continuation!

Did Jayden remind you of anyone? Big ambitions and wants to jump over her head, the girl is similar in character to Martha and also Summoner. Well, he looks just like Aiden .

I would correct the animation, the mouth opens a lot, but the impression is like from another movie. Fire!
I liked the camouflage, I found stars on the furs. So there will be tactical designations. That's cool!

ok not bad, first not crazy about the co-op 4 players for missions, it might work for games like Helldivers and DRG but not sure how it will work for a game like MW, change my mind though. second, cmon sell it to me! how is this game going to be different from MW5 and its DLCs? like what else is new?

It's really rare to see a Bishonen/Pretty Boy face type Character.

There is one thing I find highly disturbing: "they've". The use of contractions is not the way of the Clans true born warriors. This abuse of the language is not acceptable. Are those Jaguars filthy freebirths? Stravag! Savashri, PGI, have the surats you call employees fix this yesterday!

For real: Give us some immersion, please.

MechWarrior video games have always been a bit more lenient about these things than other BattleTech products, and even in first-party material, such things slip through sometimes. That being said, you do start to see contractions catch on in later eras... A lot can change in a hundred years; anyone who thinks Clan trueborn language, especially those who've lived in the Sphere for generations, won't change in that time is lying to themselves.

That being said, given the time period, I anticipate this may be fixed in the final product. Even if it isn't, frankly, a stray contraction or two isn't going to be a big deal in the long run. Never was before, won't be now.

So I'm not in the narrative department, I just do mech art. But I've watched this video like three times and I can't find where he used a contraction. Can you give a timestamp? I think I need my hearing checked lol

... Literally what are you talking about? The only person who said that in this thread is you, in this very post I'm replying to. Is this a joke that I don't have the context to appreciate?

After that last disastrous MW5 dlc, I'm not holding my breath on this being a high quality product.

This company moves at a glacial pace and is quite out-of-touch with it's (remaining) average userbase. But to heck with normal, average, regular -people- players! Let's instead cater to the ultra-minority of "pros"!
*But* only the ones who check all the diversity boxes and are willing to ignore and condone the _creeps_ who've captured this title.

I'm waiting for them to show us our Kit Master or the star colonel of our cluster.

Sarah Weaver is also very interesting.

1:38: "What am I supposed to do? My entire life THEY'VE treated me like I need to live up to the heritage of my namesake."
Though this is not Jayden speaking, I still expect any trueborn Clan warrior of that era to slap the living hell out of a person to use contractions. Especially in the military ranks.
I have never been that proud to be a Jade Falcon.

It will better be a good explanation. Else...it will not be.
