CODEC// Series Discussion thread 3

[King-Clod]

[_chill_]: honestly the mobile game sucks, sure
[_chill_]: but it's not as egregious as the crossover they did about 3 years back with Ascension War: Renaissance
[_chill_]: I get what they were thinking, they both have plots of people fighting to become a god
[_chill_]: but the method and reasoning is waaay different between the two properties
[_chill_]: there's no Mcguffin in AW:R, the storyline is that all the gods are dead, and surely whoever wins this war must be a god among men
[_chill_]: it's a whole "get faith, get ascension" thing
[_chill_]: and a crossover could be done well, maybe, if they wrote it right
[_chill_]: but they just completely erased aaaall of Breakfast's character development before the crossover for a cheap laugh
[_chill_]: not to mention Forecast and Fibre, they were unrecognizable in it
[_chill_]: and they had a whole twist where, apparently, Variety (who died in the first season of AW:R) was alive, and was a god the whole time?
[_chill_]: which *completely* erases the motivation for the whole series?
[_chill_]: it'd be forgivable if it wasn't canon to either property, but they make references to it here and there and it makes me cringe every time
