The whole industry needs to step up at this point, and demand Kotick’s head. It needs to be utterly implausible that he might keep his position.

The non-aerial neighbourhood shots look a lot like parts of Santa Barbara to me, but I’m 99.9% sure that the school in the establishing shot is Pepperdine, which gets used a lot for school exteriors.

Commissions. Work for hire. Self-publishing.

So this is apparently a sequel to the first season finale of Transformers: Beast Wars (in which prehistoric Earth had TWO moons and the aliens who created it got pissed off at the Maximals and Predacons for fucking up their experiment and activated one of them to turn it into a weapon that would scour all life from…

Or Robocop->Robocop: The Animated Series->Robocop toyline.

I really want a full-on proper Legends of Tomorrow/Doom Patrol crossover.

Not sure where you got the idea that the Book of Folding was the first one Gaal had ever read, or even that she’d been deep in the church her whole life. The teacher she runs into talks about the time that he’d spent with her family when she was younger and before her family had become deeply entangled with the Church…

(For more on that, Polygon’s writeup of the ending’s pitfalls is a fantastic read.)

I’m also an all AMD guy and have had little to no issues with Deathloop and rarely experience widely reported issues from other games.

The clones emperors are an invention of the show so the books wouldn’t give any indication of how anything plays out.

Like, are they giving Trent Crimm his own spinoff? I feel like there wasn’t nearly enough information to understand why he would purposefully burn Nate, resign from his job, and go off in search of himself.

So THEY’RE why like 90% of the CB&TL locations have shuttered over the past couple years?

Yeah, my mistake.

The thing that’s bugging me the most about this episode is the aging rate of the clone emperors. Brother Darkness is Cleon 11. Which means there have been 9 Brother Darknesses before him over the course of 400 years. That gives the clones a life span of less than 40 years, but that’s clearly not the case if in 19…

I don’t think freezing Gaal was part of the plan. Killing Hari was, but Raych clearly panics when he sees Gaal.

My favourite thing is using Nexus with the Influence and Protraction upgrades and Shift with Dropkick. You can hit one dude with Nexus, then Dropkick them through a crowd and Influence will link them to everyone they go near (and everyone they’re near, and etc), and they’ll ALL go flying. You could probably use…

Those aren’t very good comparison shots because the focal length of the virtual camera is clearly different. The FW character model shot appears to be being rendered with a portrait focal length (in real lens terms somewhere between a 35-50mm) while the in-game ZD shot is using the wide-angle in-game camera.

A lot of them genuinely believed in it, too.

Kind of hard to tell because of the ultra-stylized filtering going on, but it looks like they nailed the Bebop, Swordfish, and Faye’s ship that I can’t remember if it even had a name (Edit: it’s the Red Tail).

What always bothered me about this is that when the reveal comes the game does explicitly take control away from the player. It’s not me pushing the button to beat Andrew Ryan to death, I’m just a passive observer.
