You really have to view the Witcher Netflix show as trying to build their own property. So seeing the Wild Hunt isn’t much of a shock.

This is the correct take away.

Nah - look at the list again. It’s highly national and highly “brand” focused. It’s very notable how Sega, despite being a big part of the scene for a period of years really isn’t a player here. I mean NO Sonic the Hedgehog? Not even a 99? Really? More than 5 Mario games including Dr. Mario, more than 5 Dragon Quests,…

I mean aren’t its positives the same way though?

He’s saying 5 years after 5 years which is 10 years. BoTW is fine, but it was a cultural moment, and like all cultural moments it will fade... eventually.

To each their own? I loved Into the Spider-Verse but I’ve forgotten most of it.

I think the biggest question with Genshin is given the crackdown on gacha internationally over time - is there going to be a modification if the game is going to continue into the future.

Ungreying you.

I also think people confuse fragility with having a rational disagreement.

Depends on the are of the country and the context.  By in large, no.  In specific contexts, yes.

I think the problem is both cracker and mayo are meant as such by a no longer ironic portion of people.

And in your explanation, you’ve rationalized desperate treatment “for reason x”. The accuracy of that claim matters less than the “desperate treatment” for which most people actually experience their lives.

Yea that definitely makes sense.

The problem is, a human being is not in the best position to establish their relative position in punching up or punching down. Bias is going to play a big factor there.

End of the day, it’s SFX. If that’s the thing that sinks or swims on the film, it ain’t that great.

This sounds like someone finally realized the correct way to do these multi-generational projects. In the age of Raimi memes, it may be easy to forget how not 10 years ago, those films were being slagged on pretty regularly either due to fatigue or out of obligation to the current Spider Man of the time, Garfield.

Since I’m never getting out of the gray’s on this site - it’s worth pointing out:

You can’t really judge an Anime without acknowledging the culture that surrounds it.

And if they cast Shepard as male?

You’re talking to one of those fans - so don’t you think maybe you’re assuming a bit much?
