Oh man I remember that whole series was marketed as “the big” Halo-killer at the time, they were so confident they even had some million(?) dollar prize for whoever found some sort of secret in the game. Not sure if that ever actually happened or if it was just a marketing ploy.
But the game itself was fun, and I remember being able to dual wield rocket launchers and had space magic, so I was happy haha.
Believe it or not, the context in which I saw FW, the person meant “fuck with”. It was a comment about a tattoo, and their response was “Honestly, I kinda fw it.”
