Destiny had the same thing… If you could shoot from the Sparrow there’d be no reason to do anything else.
Frankly it’s not even a big deal. There is still the special ability that lets you shoot multiple targets like Red Dead, but I basically never use it.
Why the fuck theme it around bounty hunters then?
It’s around Kay, who is a scoundrel , not a bounty hunter. VERY different.
One of the definitions of scoundrel is “A wicked or evil person; someone who dies evil deliberately.” Bounty hunters can be scoundrels too.
If Key was an actual scoundrel it would’ve made the game much more entertaining. The unconfident scrawny teenager Kay is now doesn’t fit in with the outlaw world at all.
You’re using the dictionary definition and ignoring Star Wars established lore and terms.

And she very much fits the mold of a Scoundrel. Have you ever watched Star Wars lol?
I see, I didn’t know that the word meant something different in Star Wars.
And yes I have.
Why does being a scoundrel excuse not having the option to shoot from a speeder?
I doesn’t really, I know they explained why they made the choice. Dunno if I %100 agree with it but playing the game it doesn’t feel like that big of an issue, for me at least.
My point was more to say that she wasn’t a bounty hunter. A BH might be more aggressive and lean into combat more, where a Scoundrel is going to try to use tricks, smooth talking etc.
Are they actually bounty hunters? The trailer made it seem like they were gladiators competing in a blood sport league.
Does that change the ridiculousness in this statement?
Maybe not this specific statement, but I think it certainly highlights that everything about the game in general has been kind of a mess.
Perfect example of how hopelessly out of touch these suits are. Normal humans see a speeder and think “oh nice, hoverbike thing that’s sweet”. These executives watch the movie, see that the bikes are used sparingly pretty much only during chase scenes and think “oh chase scene, that’s what people love about speeder bikes, the chase scene.”
But it’s called Star Wars Outlaws.
So? That’s literally how game design works.
