I feel like Duke Nukem kinda just sucks as a character... but if they lean into him being a cringey tough guy stereotype but have him actually have the skills to pull off crazy shit to save the day it could be fun. I was also thinking John Cena could be fun in the role but now that I think of it maybe I should just…

“We’re making this Halo thing but how do we make people empathize with Chief? How do we show his humanity?”

I haven’t seen it (and probably wont) but to me it kinda sucks that it’s not a straight adaptation. Obviously the story of the original still exists but adapting something gives fans a new look at something they’re a fan of and can reach newcomers that don’t wanna play it (whether because they don’t play games or just…

Of the actors listed in here I’m not familiar with A.J. Beckles yet but I’ve watched some shows with the other three.

Thanks for the heads up. Went to Jack Patillo’s tweet from yesterday, found it and blocked it. Kinda crappy to put effort into trying to ruin people’s enjoyment but also not exactly surprising given the internet.

Nope... too long for me. I can’t stop myself from trying to complete as much as I can of side quests and whatnot. It’s slowed down my time with AC Odyssey so much that I keep finding it hard to return to. I end up being pulled away from the story for so long that I eventually just give the game up.

Your Name is one of my all time favorite movies but I did not like Weathering with You much (it was pretty and most of the characters were fun but other than that... blegh). I hope this one is less... weird than Weathering.

Of these I’ve seen Sk8 (I hope there’s a sequel!), Horimiya, Vivy, To Your Eternity, and Sonny Boy. And I’ve definitely love each one (though Sonny Boy is a lot and since I’m watching the dub I haven’t gotten to the end but it finally seems like it’s going somewhere).

I wonder if the Scientist will be just straight up Joel McHale. Seems like a drastically smaller get. Also I feel like his body type is not quite the same but maybe there’s more padding in the his armor.

I feel like this is great to ensure that Harmonix sticks around. Probably doesn’t mean much for more Harmonix games (unless Epic randomly decides to at some point down the line) but it kinda seemed like nothing Harmonix had done for a while had done super well.

I’m not really into these games (mostly ‘cause I don’t have a friend group to play ‘em with) but this looks kinda awesome. 

I’m for the decision. Taking it out will upset some racists and it distances Rockstar from people who might have used it as some weird approval of their ideals (with it being someone on your side as opposed to an antagonist). It’s clearly not meant to be any sorta approval but why give ‘em anything to latch onto.

Oh, definitely. I just think the last few PC games I had purchased (Hades, Griftlands, and Satisfactory) in I dunno how long had been on the Epic Store.

This sucks. As someone who’s been totally fine with the Epic Store (I’m not much of a PC gamer but it’s hard to argue with free games and someone fighting for better cuts for devs) this could be the thing to turn me away.

Maybe unpopular opinion here but as someone who really likes Fortnite (especially the events in the BR) and is open to enjoying seeing a bunch of things I like on screen (even if it is blatant fanservice-y cash grabiness) I’m totally down. I don’t expect this to be high art but I’ve had fun as they’ve dragged me along…

I really loved this event. Starting with a single partner and then slowly everyone meeting up together felt really cool. And then later when Kevin starting wiping out other players (separating everyone into instances I assume) was exciting. I really liked how it felt like we were a small group of survivors at the end.

I loved it. I’m not that big of an Ariana Grande fan (She seems alright and I kinda like that My Favorite Things song a bit but I dunno if I could name another song by her). I really like the fact that it shift tones from fun to exciting to fantastical (I really loved the sliding bit and the plane bit for how exciting…

Sometimes art just speaks to you.

“It’s like how the PlayStation mini got Persona 1 in Japan but we got something else less cool.”

I am a Random main as well... but mostly because I’m not great with anyone anyway and just prefer leaning into the chaos with whoever the game picks.
