Does Lore Really Matter in FPS Games?
This game has cool characters with cool backstory & all, but does that really matter to you? Like if this game didn't have all the lore & backstory would it effect which legend you play or if you eve...

@Lord_Scorpion34 Lore isnt a must but it is cool in this game. The pathfinder book is excellent.
I fought the lore but, the lore won.
My take on it is that the Titanfall 2 campaign was a damn good story and gameplay. They kinda copied the Luke Skywalker story, but did a better job IMO. Apex came along after Fortnite and PUBG to compete in the Battle Royale segment. They had so much re-use from Titanfall 2 that they kept it in the same universe. It has seemed like they have been making stuff up as they go along, but it has been working for sure.
Well....
The comic book lore is terrible.
But the movie lore is amazing.
I think FPS players like to descend into fantasy and feel like there is another dimension to a pew pew shoot game even when there is not any actual game impact. Plus the Titanfall lore is pretty awesome. Respawn, I bet, makes more money rolling out lore than not, so I think cost wise they've weighed it and it works out for them.
Me, I'll take those Stories from the Outlands short movies any day. They've been phenomenal. Just, you know, when I go play, I still realize that Rampart is bad and Horizon is good, no matter what the lore says :D
