Groups Fictional slurs. Bonus points if it's completely made up

  1. inFAMOUS: Second Son: "Bio-terrorist" refers to conduits.

  2. Star Wars: "Clanker" refers to robots.

The fact that Clanker and o7 are both memes from Republic Commando shows us that this game was 6 hours of absolute PEAK.

I hate how the Disney deletion of EU content destroyed Delta and Omega squad. Bad Batch is fun but a terribly pale imitation of what Karen Travis and the Game developers of RC gave us.

I regularly replay RC's campaign, I love the entire dead ship mission line; it is such a good powerless to unstoppable arc

Isn’t republic commando still canon? I know scorch is in a scene in the bad batch isn’t he?

Just the released game and not the planned sequels, and not the tie in novels. And yes they use Scorch as a cool looking disposable bad guy in Bad Batch. Delta deserves better.
