I meant a diversified audience of geeks, not the actual references (though there are arguments to be made about that, too). Wade’s doesn’t have any white male friends in the film, and I thought that was a good thing. It shows how nerds are a diverse group. 

Housewives is also at its best when they’re just straight up weird, like Scary Island or the Berkshires.

Can we please just get more recaps/responses to the wonderfully perverse Vanderpump Rules? Last night’s episode was an actual masterpiece, it that’s possible for reality tv.

Hey, it’s not just a last gasp for white pop culture, it’s also...uhhh...got a queer black woman in it! Some asian kids...and...a lady with some irritated skin around her eye!

Ehh, might do well enough on video to justify some sequel, but that’s unlikely.

Maybe they’ll retcon if a second movie gets made? The virus might get explained as partially mystical (or at least fantastic). I do think it would fit the movie(s) better if their were some mysticism.

I think the problem with introducing actual supernatural/magical elements into the film is that it would necessitate a (really) longer run time. If the film followed the game, Himiko would be the main antagonist, and that is easy to introduce slowly over a period of a 10-15 hour narrative, not a 2 hour film.

I’m surprised that more people didn’t say Iron Man 2 was their least favorite. I legitimately can’t remember a single thing about the film except for the fact that I didn’t like it.

OH MY GOD, SAMMMMMMEEE!!!!!!!!!

I think when the term starts tracking with economists of any background is when I’ll start to actually consider the term’s validity. I mean, the term has been used for ages in almost entirely post-structuralist circles and is only now getting popular usage (from post-structuralist educated Millennials, of course).…

I am too, especially since Oldman (a perfectly good man who has never done a misogynistic thing in his life) finally is getting an Oscar after such a long career giving fantastic performances.

Not to rag on you, mainly because I think you are making important points on this page, but you sources here don’t really prove what you are saying.

Except, Gary Oldman didn’t beat up his wife.

I understand the desert areas were supposed to be representative of deserts, but they are still totally boring. You can make an “empty” area fun, imo.

The void quests are mandatory for a really good ending, and I would say some side quests contribute substantially to the main story. For the most part, you just need the required amount of power to progress, which is misery to try and get.

I don’t disagree with the fact that the companion quests are short, I do believe they are superior to the main story (I am also including Cullen, Josephine, Leliana, and Morrigan too since they basically have companion quests) despite being shorter.

Oh, of flatter me good sir! Thank you.

To expand on my initial comment, I would say there is nothing wrong linearity or non-linearity in a game. Both can be effectively implemented in any game (linear- Half Life 2 or Bioshock) (non-linear- Fallout: New Vegas, Knights of the Old Republic 1&2, Nier: Automata). For DA:I, I simply think it’s non-linearity is…

Agree, I just think some people’s tastes might result in them enjoying a shorter run of Inquisition. Anyone spending a significant amount of time in the game will likely find it very unfulfilling, unless they have extremely low standards when it comes to variety in games (a fetch quest is fundamentally similar to any…

I think for people very good at managing their time the game is fine. For completionists or people bad a managing their time, the game is probably going to be bad. Completionists will find the game overstuffed and dull, people with poor time management will just drop the game. Ultimately, it just depends on the person.
