they’ve tried to assure folks it’s not a “scam” on Steam.

I didn't think it was a scam before, but now I kinda wonder a little bit!

“I come before you today with an indie game! Perhaps the greatest indie game of all... nah, this indie game isn’t for you. It’s more of an itch.io kinda indie game!”

I didn’t have a whole lot of interest for this game like this beforehand, but it’s a definite hard no now.

Screw you Square-Enix. I thought this game looked interesting enough to at least try it out, but I will NOT try it so long as AI generated art is anywhere in the game in any capacity.

I mean, they went full-bore on NFTs last year, so makes sense that they’d follow all the techbros onto the next grift.

Square predictably dipping their feet into murky waters. More news after the break.

I think part of that is that a lot of “prestige” shows are serialized so the assumption is that…

There were FIVE Happy Days spinoffs.

Actually, the way they advertised it is one of the reasons I never bothered to watch until it was all over. They set it up as another ho-hum procedural cop/detective drama in the teasers every week.

And remember NCIS is a spinoff of JAG. 

Nolan sold it as a standard procedural and the hook was The Machine. Like Elementary or N3mbers or any number of other shows, they thought the hook would be mostly just a meaningless gimmick that didn’t affect the plot in any significant way (hell, they now have the US Navy investigating crimes in Australia somehow) an…

“All I need is a healthy ovum and I can grow my own Leonard Nemoy!”

i used to watch TBBT for a while and i thought Young Sheldon was gonna be more of the same i kind of wrote it off. a couple of years ago i watched some random episodes and it wasnt that bad. felt like a weird Wonder Years
