I used to play Unreal Tournament and Battlefield, and when playing with friends on a voice call with them, but I stopped playing online around the same time you did because of other players

the thing is that trans people will rarely get representation otherwise. It’s either headcanon or watch very specific media which might not be to your taste or even makes the character tragic. So yeah headcanon. And headcanon loudly because it makes you happy and you want to share it with others. There’s no need to…

I think some of it is a reach, and I don’t like fan theories, specially when I’m just going to be disappointed.
But it’s undeniable that her arc and so many moments with her felt straight up out of my life in a way I haven’t seen any other story do. Add in the protect trans kids banner and the trans flag on Captain…

I wasn’t even all that good at UT, but I loved the gameplay. UT04 was so so fun

I’m glad it’s doing so well. When I watched the teaser for the first movie I knew we were in for something special, but was surprised that barely anyone had heard of it or was hyped for it. The movies are such amazing work.

I was absolutely blown away. It was amazing. In so many ways bigger and better than the first movie. There was so much movie and so much art. It’s the Spiderverse team flexing and making an impact on the animation industry yet again.
However... I’ve got to say the action and the heart, the out there plot and the…

I’m so sorry you’re going through all of that. Admittedly I get to assume my surroundings are safe, because the current wave of transphobia (and general queerphobia) hasn’t fully taken grip yet where I live (outside the US). What you’re all going through there is horrifying. I didn’t know about Hayley Williams doing…

I’m younger, but thinking of the old days, heck even up to a bit over a decade ago, it was so damned scary. Afraid of being open to anyone around you, even those technically closest to you. Fearing you’d lose everything. Now most I come across are accepting. Most of the time, I can assume I can be open.
That said right…

wh-what? There has to be some weird story reason for that, right? Something clever? That’s a weirdly huge mistake for the colorist to make!?

I guess I’m happy they remembered that she can shapeshift? But yeah bleh. Also that art is terrible!? I know JRJR has some weaknesses in his art style, but generally it does look good. But damn, you shouldn’t mess up the death of a character that bad!?

I very much hope they don’t bring her back more in line with the…

That’s even worse. what

and waste my phone battery when I need it to endlessly doomscroll on twitter while playing? NEVER

So, you need to buy it. And a PS5. And a portable wifi hotspot. And all of it has to be running at the same time? I guess you could skip the PS5 since it probably should work with Sony’s streaming service, right?
Still feels at the moment like they didn’t plan ahead for an international release.

That’s unfortunate. Guess I’ll wait until there’s a big sale on it, because I’m not going to pay so much money for something that I don’t really own. I love Remedy games and was looking forward to this for ages, but yeah...
Of course I realize most games these days come broken if they aren’t patched immediately, but…

The flashbacks were so damn well done. I immediately connected to young Rocket, seeing him act just as disoriented and weakened after the experiments, as my own cat when it had just come back from surgery a few days before. By the end of the flashbacks I was angry crying so much in a way I don’t think a movie had…

eh, dunno. After the stuff with HBO max, and the fact that these are all things that Disney doesn’t actually seem to care much about (unlike the Vault movies), I dunno...

“But in some ways, that was a little bit restricting for us.”
yo, Aonuma, listen to what you just said. Sticking to a single formula is restricting. Just shake it up every so often.

I like the rhythm of: Main game that does something different, followed by a sequel that can do crazy things because it doesn’t have to do…

That’s fucked up.

We really need to get back to physical media. Don’t even think it’s possible to buy Disney+ shows on bluray. At least haven’t seen any last time I checked.

*gasp* Pope’s Exorcist officially has a reverse isekai as part of its backstory. Brilliant environmental storytelling

I’ve started FF14 a year ago and I don’t see that. Things unlock and become available according to your progress in the main storyline. There’s sometimes content that came out much later that is made available earlier in the storyline, but that’s because it already made sense in that earlier context.
I’m keeping away…
