Except when major (union) film and TV stars get insanely higher paychecks for doing far less work in video games than full-time voice actors. Even those known major names in voice acting like John Dimaggio (Bender from Futurama), Tara Strong (In basically everything), get paid garbage compared to a “named” film star.

Agreed, I recently watched and riffed the hell out of the prequel trilogy and I had a fantastic time with my friends. We legitimately enjoy the films but also see the glaring flaws througout. Especially things like dated CGI being painfully obvious in many scenes.

I can understand that, but why should people new to a movie franchise be expected to get every wink and nod in a new movie series and have to go back and read thousands of pages of extended lore?

It just is kind of silly.

Then there are those of us that didn’t hate the prequels and saw them as what they were - more Star Wars movies.

I love the Extended Universe, but it is far too inaccessible to a new generation of Star Wars fans (and their wallets) to make a new movie franchise feasible in my view.

The Koog Aproogs!

Also Ones don’t get a rhyme because they’re garbage.

Confused. There is just nothing there beyond some blank posts.

Agreed completely.

Bulbasaur, I choose you!

Well I have to say I am not level 40 yet, I mainly play with friends vs AI since it is much less stress. But yeah especially right after beta ended there was an influx of new players that had no idea what abathur did.

I take it there is no option to switch between the two? I vastly prefer Dinklage’s semi-campy performance which to me gives the game a different tone.

Where is the “Press X To Abathur” report button? I know I’ve gotten chewed out when playing as Abathur quite a few times for being “afk” since obviously the person had no idea how he worked and wouldn’t take any explanation.

Interestingly enough, my wife and I binge-watched the first 11 episodes last night while doing our regular nightly things (writing/gaming/reading) and found it enjoyable. I think I enjoy it a bit more than her, but I plan on watching 12 and on tonight, at least to get through what’s on hulu.

Oh I thoroughly enjoy the sentimental stuff in various animated shows like Futurama, Rick & Morty (Which has more heart than it should by any measure) and of course Adventure Time with its amazing pathos.

SU just has a very odd tone to it at times and maybe that is something I need to get used to or becomes more clear

How can you possibly like one thing but dislike something else others enjoy and still be reasonable about it?

Against a bunch of nobody enhancement talents too..especially that one beardless nerdy looking guy in red trunks.

Even then I still personally don’t see the appeal. I can understand highlights, which is the same way I feel about real sports. Ok cool dude used an awesome strategy and won the game, there’s 2 minutes rather than hours wasted.

If it is something some people enjoy - fine, I am not saying they can’t do it, but I can’t

This. I know far too many people that do this. They can/do have the games but spend hours watching people play them and then discuss it as if they had played the game themselves.

There is a massive difference between playing and watching sports. Playing sports takes a lot of factors that are uncontrollable for many people, weather, teammates, location, as well as athletic ability. Video games, for the most part, can be played by anyone anytime. Watching someone Slam a Jam home (or whatever
