Guess it’s time to boot up Skyrim yet again.

Gamepass seems to depend on how you’re using it. Microsoft made it extremely easy to get started, but then it’s questionable whether it will turn out to be worthwhile in the long run.

Wait, what?

I really sincerely hope this includes a time jump to bring the characters in line with the actors’ actual ages. We had enough creepy old dudes celebrating MBB’s 18th birthday, let’s not also have her keep playing a 14-year-old until she’s 25. 

That Links Awakening deal doesn’t show up on Amazon. Sad.

I always hated that design. His whole action style is about being stealthy and using the shadows to intimidate. It’s hard to buy into someone swinging around on a grappling hook weighing 260 and wearing Kevlar. I would have liked to see a slim, ninja like Batman for that gameplay. 

They’re “non-lethal piercing rounds.” They’re totally fine as long as you call them that.

Yeah, the sliding is bizarre. I would expect more from the physics from a current gen only game that they’ve been working on for years. Maybe it’s just me, but this looks worse than Arkham Knight.

I am still pretty new to the Switch and played the entire thing in handheld mode. Maybe it’s just because my expectations for the platform are really low or because I was playing it on the small screen, but I thought it was fine. Not as pretty as Breath of the Wild but not so far off that it hurt to look at.

No! Not Frank Langela!

I’ve done all the homework. My partner has slept through class. I’ll watch this on Disney+ without her.

I’ll come out and say it. I want a full on remake. Soul Reaver still holds a very special place in my heart - the opening cinematic alone blew my 12-year-old mind - but no 3D game from the PS1 generation should be re-released without some major overhauls. I would love to see the fully realized version of that world…

Marvel loves to do this. Any mildly emotional story beat has to be undercut by humor or an action scene. And it’s ultimately an action show, so I get it, but it always ends up feeling kind of emotionally empty. Oscar Isaac is killing it, but all of the drama ends up feeling lifeless because Marvel isn’t willing to…

I wonder what’s separating MS and Sony on this. Or if it has anything to do with Sony’s worldwide demand and XBox being able to just ship far less to some markets since they’re not going to get bought.

You’re correct, that’s how society works, and it’s why rules exist. If a person attacked you, they would face charges. If a dog bit you, they would be put down. A restaurant saying they allow dogs doesn’t mean there are no repercussions for that dog’s bad behavior.

That’s not a good reason. Dogs shouldn’t “live at home” because that’s what makes them anxious and aggressive in the first place. I only see how it’s rude if the dog is barking or jumping at strangers - but if they’re just minding their own business, maybe you should lighten up? It sounds like there must be a lot of…

It depends entirely on how well the dog handles it and whether the place allows dogs.

I feel like that’s the way to go, though. Marvel already has the MCU and DCverse is just falling further and further behind on that. DC is finding its stride in giving each character/series its own tone and find its own audience, and it honestly seems to work right now.

I disagree - I felt like the way everything hits the fan at the end is the payoff for the slow build up to it, and the Black Philip scene was creepy and fun at the same time. I mean, it became a meme. I’ve seen the quote on T-shirts. The ending is what sticks around with you after you’ve forgotten everything else that…

I’d be really curious to hear more about where The Witch failed to meet his vision. That jumped to the top of my favorite horror movies of recent memory. The only problem is that it’s so damn hard to understand what anyone is saying.
