man, i dunno. glass onion was kind of over-worked, and benoit blanc kind of disappeared in it at times. and i found myself asking, “oh, who the fuck is this guy again?” the tension of the story felt threadbare and the themes felt all of a sudden far too heavy for the light characterizations at hand. 

you are coming across as psychotic

biggest disappointment was Made in Abyss S2 by a mile. like, they had every opportunity to address the bloated and often incoherent storytelling of the village arc but they not only adapted every storytelling flaw faithfully, but they compounded it with truly bizarre structural decisions. 

why is everything on kotaku framed in such a negative light? “fan begging.” ffs, fromsoftware, like any developer, releases products on their own internally set schedule.

the ps5 has become exponentially more available this holiday season. just saying. i got the god of war ragnarok digital ps5 bundle last week with minimal fuss.

i feel ya man. i, too, was limited by the ps4 until just last week. but i decided it was finally time to change. i know it’s been difficult to find the ps5 but it’s gotten much easier lately, as long as you’re looking for a bundle. i found mine on walmart’s site. 

it was really nothing exceptional. merely serviceable for the most part. 

this looks so overwhelmingly canadian in so many respects, lol. i’m not sure i cam handle it. 

this is such stupid fucking spin. snowden is left of obama, as are the filmmakers who documented his story. a left wing libertarian. greenwald obviously is a heel turn, but to suggest that snowden was to the right of obama, and not someone simply trying to follow their moral code, is full of shit. no one would put…

snowden doesn’t owe the US anything anymore, in my opinion. let him live his life to the best of his abilities, wherever that may be. he’s got such a target on his back he’s essentially harmless.

man, i definitely hated it in theatre and totally felt shunned whenever and wherever i mentioned it. but that movie was cheesy and stupid. 

probably not. you’re basically receiving a gift, which isn’t a purchase via steam.

James Mangold made Ford v Ferrari—he’s got a stronger-than-average set of storytelling chops and isn’t some stupid corporate hack. he’s not going to make the film according to Disney’s blueprint—if anything he will be setting the standard. just look at the influence of Logan on this era of filmmaking. he directed…

maybe do some introspection first before you prioritize your take here.

the best NFS will always be Porsche Unleashed.

well, that’s actually rather unusual, tbh, so i feel like this point could’ve been better contextualized. typically patch notes are the developers way of directly communicating to their users. and that may still be the case here. but obviously shipping an absolute piece of shit game is unusual for nintendo.

it’s kinda weird that you throw around “Nintendo” like they are the developers of the software or the people who would communicate via patch notes. 

it sounds like the production was thoroughly creatively compromised by covid, as many series were during this period of time. so they did the best they could, but their scripts were inescapably gimped. 

i assume the donkey kong fight is a part of the smash bros. homage—and that the tournament, which includes a race and an obstacle course, serves as some kind of barrier to access to reach bowser.

he barely spoke in the last trailer, so... i think people were inputing too much of what they imagined he’d sound like.
