Plausible and possible, but if that’s the case it’s a sharp example of bad writing. You don’t name provide your offshoot cults nearly identical names unless you intend to draw a connection.

Save you a ticket: According to a Google search of the soundtrack, it’s almost all one band and no licensed works. But just because you made me wanna hear it:

I find it curious that the Street Fighter Animated Movie move they have Cammy doing doesn’t include the neck-breaker... in the film she rotates her target’s head 180 degrees on his shoulders before dropping her knees into his back. It’s not as though fighting games have shied away from moves that would finish a fight…

Trey Parker was literally the lead actor in the film, that’s a bit of a giveaway.

How long can you preserve the gasoline if you keep it in some kinda container that is constantly (or at least frequently) getting shaken or stirred up somehow?

In fairness, the original isn’t that far off the parody. It’s just an early voice synthesizer reading the text, a remix of the theme, and so... so many photoshopped memes.

I suspect a video about the years-long slog through lobbying and legislature, with its accompanying failures and setbacks and systemic sabotage, to finally result in a compromise which allows for some mild progress, will not generate the revenue sufficient to fund such an effort.

This guy can give away money because…

Honey Bee might win the vote, but I betcha it’s the church that they actually select. It’s the most “LEGO-suitable” and iconically recognizable scene, having featured in both Remake and Advent Children.

Irritated the shit outta me, at least. I was reading to see if it was worth upgrading to the new version or just playing an old copy of the original that I already have, but either way the plot point is spoilt for someone who was just looking for a recommendation.

Since when did game reviews, old or new, find it…

Is it about dealing with the lack of a father, or about dealing with being an insufferable one-upper?

One of my favorite examples is Dave Duncan’s “Seventh Sword” series from 1988. Or as I like to call it, Oh No, I Reincarnated As A Swordsman On A Mission For A Goddess, What Next?!

But yeah, this has been a staple of the Fantasy genre since its earliest days.

>it gives them a lot of power to retaliate against creators for any reason if they want to.

Sure, if they’re not required to explain their reasoning and they’re not held accountable for their decisions. If they act like Youtube or Reddit moderators, striking without consequence or oversight, then it’s an authoritarian…

Aw man, the App Store metaphor sounds so very plausible. Someone’s gotten the idea that they can be an Audible or Spotify or Steam for digital TTRPG content. I bet it sounded real good in the Zoom meetings.

It’s also the stuff they unequivocably own. Like, messing with the rules is always a flippin’ minefield, they never seem to learn for long that players have no problem creatively adapting the rules to fit their own needs, and the less you mess with the fundamentals, the stronger they’ll be. Stick to playing with the…

I think a nice move going forward, especially if they’re serious about transparency, would be explaining in clear, simple terms *why* a new OGL is needed, and then making an effort to retain as much of the original OGL as possible. Like, tell us what sparked this idea that a change was needed in the first place,…

I kept thinking, they imported all that Mexico geometry, surely they mean to do something with it!

But no... no, I guess it’s just code bloat carryover from RDR1. They could do something with it, presumably, but at this point I don’t expect they will.

If you’re on a desktop or laptop browser, resize the browser window to be less wide, and the slideshow automatically converts to a long page list again.

And I can only half-remember which is which.

It’s also the skills they bring to produce bespoke content under direction. Which is the factor so many take for granted (“it’s not hard, I could do that if I really tried,” says the idiot who never actually tries, usually because they “have better things to do”) and the rise of algorithmic art is only going to…

I think part of it is that Lance Reddick has a delightfully distinctive voice. It’s hard to integrate sometimes, but when it works it works beautifully.

Also feel Hellboy should be a little more growly, with the cigars and hellfire and all, and Perlman just nailed it to the wall and wrote his name all over that.…
