so, Transitional Kinderguardians

Ahsoka is 10-15 years after rebels, not 20, which fits OK with the kid’s age. And Sabine’s actress is 29, which is reasonable assuming she was a teen in rebels.

Well this is far more positive than the polygon take and comment section, so there’s some hope in that. I’m tired of people not being able to just watch a show and enjoy it for what it is. Lately everyone has to nitpick every show to pieces and blast it to hell in reviews if it’s not an absolute masterpiece in the…

To be fair the original east blue saga is drawn out to the extreme, even by some shonen standards. Luffy is literally drowned for hours in the anime and it’s passed off as a couple minutes.

I never said it wasn’t open for critique. But most people here are talking about the topic without recognizing the problem is simpler than that - it’s the source. It is a video game made for the Japanese market first and foremost, thus it was going to be conservative in it’s choice of messaging. If you are the same…

Those of us who grew up in the 80s and 90s are more able to take this for what it is - a conservative corporation throwing out some large touchpoints and “safe” moral messages, then quickly moving on (GI-Joe moments). It’s not rocket science. It’s an extremely recent and mostly western thing to turn every single…

The running assumption is that Filoni is trying really hard to do the same thing for the sequels with these series and the forthcoming movie what Clone Wars did for Anakin in the prequels - make the backstory much less stunted and stupid. In this case it’s setting up how broken the new republic was and a viable…

Agreed, most people who don’t look at old Trek through rose colored glasses is having a great time right now. TNG/DS9/Voy was great and all but it also had a lot of bad/dumb episodes due to the 90s production schedules and network bs. I got to help run a major Trek forum during the age of Voyager/Enterprise and the…

I’m pretty sure Filoni is head over heals to be doing this too. The reason for the black and white in a lot of the productions is partly the time and setting in which they are placed. The team tried to show deeper grays in the force throughout Clone Wars and Rebels but always had to come back to the light/dark due to…

I actually never finished FF7 myself cause the cardboard case the PC release came in scratched the disks so bad :D

They specifically called him Cayde-6 in the news release on the site so yeah, probably not. Plus he doesn’t seem to have lost his memory, and the lore was very blunt about him not wanting to be rebooted again. Very good possibility that he’s not back for realsies though, much like Starbuck in BSG. In any case I’m just…

The darkness fed us nightmares, the light might feed us dreams....

Yup, I have to dual boot my Deck to windows because Destiny 2 is my main game and I want access to my game pass games. Neither are possible on Steam OS - there are no workarounds. And the windows experience on the deck is horrible because of poor drivers, dual boot gets broken with every OS update, and having to use…

They don’t care. It’s just bully mentality so they’ll argue whatever to feel like the big person in the room. Their main argument for being an ass is that everyone is doing it. I should have just ignored the obvious troll.

he writes better and more believable/human characters, he tells stories better

I found this article through a link on Kotaku, cause I haven’t looked at Gizmodo in ages. This comment thread reminds me why I removed Gizmodo from my RSS feeds ages ago. This site has always prioritized fast reporting over accurate reporting, which means I can’t trust it at all. Every time I saw an article here I…

Agreed. I love Sanderson’s worlds but they are not high level writing. What attracts me to Sanderson’s books is the world building and creative/unique magic systems that are all connected. And the fun and escapism, and sometime hilarious characters. Arguably the same could be said of Wheel of Time and Song of Ice and…

<redacted, wrong post>

This is such transparently Sony-funded bull that it makes me even less interested in the game. And I actually liked XV. I’m tired of this company stupidly digging their own grave.

Their source is their boss at Sony. Cause there’s not a chance they’re an actual developer seeing as piss poor developer tools and support has been the biggest complaint by anyone not being directly funded by Sony for decades now.
