I gave his first Star Trek a provisional good grade, because it felt like an incomplete story, the first chapter of something bigger. I had concerns but was cautiously optimistic.

There’s a difference between having similar plot ideas or elements somewhere in the design but come on this was so blatantly SG-1.
Padme had plenty of utterly normal ones.
That she started with her cinnamon rolls?
Aliens posing as their gods - Check. Double Check for it being Nordic Gods.
Doctor Who has been pulling this kind of thing since 1963; so more apt to say SG-1 has been ripping of Doctor Who. But most long running SciFi are bound to use into similar stories.
IMO looks and sounds amazing and faithful to the movies... but not that much fun to play. Maybe my tastes changed since the original battlefront games, but I liked those way more. I distinctly remember the even the Hoth mission in Shadows of the Empire being way more fun than this 40-player clusterfuck... Again,…
Beta convinced me not to buy the game. Maybe when (or if) it goes down to 20$ I might buy it. Just not my cup of tea. Sound design and visuals are great but I’m not a fan of certain things.
It was fun for about 1 hour...they nailed the star wars visuals and sounds, but that’s it...
My biggest issue is it still just feels like Battlefield...
“It’s not Battlefield!” ... Yeah, I don’t know about that...
Played about an hour and I can't say I'm impressed. It's just so underwhelming and it's so obvious the empire is way more powerful. Anytime I play as them, my k/d ratio is 3/1. Any time I was the Rebels it was more like 1/3.
Good thing it’s not meant to be suspenseful. It’s just shorthand for very confusing things are afoot, or ‘how will our heroes escape this time?’
Not to mention there’s still plenty of suspense about who, when, and how the guest stars of the week(s) may or may not die.
Now we can all pretend to be Clara Oswald from the Flatline episode.
No, it’s not used only for universe-ending emergencies. I mean, it has been used for that (“The Sound of Drums”, “Turn Left”), but in its very first instance in “Logopolis” it was described as merely a glorified Red Alert.
Thank you! I think Clara is underrated and gets a lot of flak despite being the only companion to really be a fully formed, complete person. She’s not in love with The Doctor, nor are her travels required to fill in some missing part of her growth as a person (the way Rose and Donna both had to learn a “believe in…
See, neither of those things bothered me, because that’s just sort of typical low budget sci-fi fare, but the human interpreter just didn’t make much sense to me. I mean Congo had sign language-translating gloves. For a gorilla.
I actually felt the exact opposite. I recognize that the first 2 episodes had a few flaws, but by and large I found them emotionally compelling and relatively entertaining.
I’ve never been a fan of the show—and I can’t tell you how deeply that comment goes—but Clara has made me take interest. I’ve either dated or been married to Who fans, so I’ve seen pretty much all episodes even when not paying attention, but Clara, or the performance, is demanding attention.
