m76 Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 The way Splinter Cell Conviction retconned character Anna Grimmsdottir from analyst to field agent. I can't think of anything else right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It means changing something retroactively that throws your face value interpretation of previous events on the garbage pile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 😐😑😐 I must be dumber than I thought, because I still didn’t follow any of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

killamch89 Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 The Retcon of the origin story in the Devil May Cry Reboot absolutely sucked - it turned off so many fans from the game including myself. That is the only Devil May Cry game I have yet to complete and won't ever complete it either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I stopped playing it the very first time I had experience that because it was literally off from what it's supposed to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
