Loved TMS, kind of always wanted to see a flipped version where instead of an SMT world with Fire Emblem elements crossing in, it’s the inverse.

Speaking personally, Three Houses absolutely consumed me in a way I did not expect and the expansion only further improved on it’s formula so, I’ve been disappointed based on what’s been shown that Engage seems to largely move away from that.

Pretty much sums it up for me. Doesn’t this guy have any work to do like.. at all? Even just performative?

I think this is the biggest thing to note if you’re confused about why people care so much about JKR versus other terrible brands. Because yes, as many are pointing out the financial impact of a boycott will be relatively small, just as it would for any brand of sufficient size, but JKR isn’t someone just sitting…

“It’s just a picture,” the person said about the eggs. “There’s nothing I can do with it. It’s basically worth nothing whatsoever.”

It’s the “How dare you?!” that really takes the cake here. Like I would’ve assumed given his whole.. whatever the hell he has going on there, that he was planning to pretend like he was so cool and above it all. But that response makes it seem like she genuinely somehow got under his skin for using a pretty obvious…

When I first saw that I was so certain it had to be faked, or a parody account or something. But no, dude really just acts like a 50s movie villain.

I think their name was originally taken because their focus was on “social games.”

The whole “50 people” thing is another telling remark that seemingly would indicate these people have no concept of the world beyond America, or do they genuinely think that any global media company can properly function without staff across the world?

It isn’t really, and you can look to the shows and movies on streaming that have had to have content edited out of them due to expired licenses as evidence of that. It’s also partly why movies will re-release every 10 years or so; sure it’s an anniversary but it’s also conveniently a common length of a license, so…

The Amazon TV boss continued, explaining that the newer games, while being “giant epic” adventures are still focused on telling a story about “fathers and sons, and families.” He thinks this will appeal to everyone, even people who haven’t played the games.

I feel like DMZ is to Tarkov what Warzone 1.0 was to PUBG, at least for me personally. Same basic concept but streamlined and simplified into something that I actually find enjoyable, and the one that gets me actually playing the genre. Warzone cut out a lot of the stuff that turned me off PUBG and made it quicker…

Speaking personally; while this game doesn’t interest me, the smaller to mid size games are actually the only thing that makes me even consider Game Pass on PC. The large releases are indeed attainable elsewhere, but are too uncommon for me to ever consider a subscription service for them. But the smaller releases,…

I think the one concern would be with point B, and whether or not Disney allows it to have legs before they signal intent to stream. I’d have to imagine Cameron has more pull with that than any of their other work and would keep it off Disney+ as long as possible, but people might assume it’s heading to streaming…

Just vibes sounds about right for Avatar. When I was at Disney World I went on the Flight of Passage ride and was surprised that I really enjoyed it as someone who didn’t care about Avatar. But, the ride is a storyless environmental tour that is just “pretty thing wow.” Made me realize that it’s an IP that really only…

Honestly the whole child stalking story is the least believable thing he’s said so far, not because of how it’s basically impossible, but rather the thought that he cares even one ounce about any of his kids is laughable.

Also at least as of this time, trying to tweet any link to Mastodon at all is prevented with a warning that “it may be unsafe.”

Mastodon posted that elonjet also had an account on Mastodon along with a link to it after the account was banned yesterday. But no action was taken until journalists began calling out that Musk’s claim that somehow the account was being used to stalk his child seemed fabricated that the banning began. More seems…

I see Cameron has gone from appointing himself the authority on how movies should be to appointing himself the authority on how lives should be lived. Seems about right for him.
