Jesus, how long has this day been? And how the fuck has she put in 3 ½ years at the White House if he’s only been in office for 2 ½, and Spicer and that 11-day fool preceded her?

Yeah, that’s gonna be a ‘No’ from me dog.

Yeah, “THIS GAME HAS TO REMIND PEOPLE OF THE MOVIES AND THOSE ACTORS BUT ALSO YOU CAN’T AFFORD THEIR LIKENESSES SOOOOOO, I DON’T KNOW, FIGURE IT OUT.”

Exactly! I fly from NYC to Detroit pretty regularly and we routinely go up significantly into Canada. Fun fact, the earth is curved, meaning straight lines aren’t always the fastest if you have 3 planes instead of 2 (planes in this case being the geometrical feature, not the flying kind).

I have a friend who used to manage a Starbucks in LA and she said Paula used to call at least twice a week trying to order Chinese food, so...

Yep.  Earth round and all that.  

Just to point out, planes don’t necessarily fly in a straight line from point A to Point B. Here’s an actual Denver-St. Louis flight path I grabbed off Flight Aware. It makes Iowa seem not outside the realm of possibility.

There actually is a lot in her story that makes sense. For example, it is entirely possible that “drugs didn’t really work” AND that she became dependent on them (this happens to lots of people).

I had no idea she was this qualified to be President.

No matter how many chickens come home she’ll still go to sleep comfortably on a giant pile of money she made from her awfulness.  The pile just won’t get larger at the same rate.

A minor nit to pick:

Man, I was interested in the idea of an Avengers game (even with the idea that it might be a service game a la Destiny) but this doesn’t look demonstrably better than, like... the Iron Man or Captain America games based on the MCU from ten years ago.

I find it rather odd how on many issues we’ve ceded control of the wording to the other side. Anti-Vax, Pro-Life (which gives the implication that Pro-Choice is choosing death), TERFs (nowhere else would bigotry be called “radical” or feminist for that matter), “Law and Order” as a codeword for racial profiling, etc

We gotta start calling these people what they are: child-killers. They would rather have a dead child than one who has autism or some other (almost certainly fictional) “vaccine injury”.

That’s it. The models are just bad, Captain America doesn’t look anything like he should, and by that I don’t mean just Chris Evans.  Thor doesn’t look right.  Stark doesn’t look right.  I’m fine with not doing MCU, Spider-man did that just fine.  But these guys look distractingly wrong.

Yeah, the design choices for this game were not the right ones. And it’s funny because if they went with a more stylized (or otherwise distinct) look away from the MCU, and then gave the MCU outfits as optional accessories (like with the Spider-Man game) people would love it.

I’ve seen a few quotes, my favorites are

The character designs are borderlining on Liefeldian.

Man, all respect to the voice actors, but it’s so close to the MCU aesthetic that them NOT being Chris Evans/Hemsworth, RDJ, etc throws me off. Doesn’t help that the characters themselves look like the Marvel’s Avengers On Ice versions, or that Cap apparently thinks he’s in a Call of Duty game, based on his outfit.

Not getting the actor’s likeness rights is going to hurt. People have been watching these characters for a decade now. They know what they look like. Stylized would have been a better choice than realistic without those likeness rights.

All skin folk, ain’t your kin folk. That ass kissing Sambo Dennard is a joke and is pretty much so stuck in the sunken place his black ass couldn’t find his way out with a map. Maybe they can get Diamond and Silk to fill the position. What annoys me and any other rational person of color is the following, these GOP
