“Peacock: Come for MacGruber, stay for old Columbo and Murder, She Wrote”

Back in 1957 she was the star of Leave it to Dever! 

Go watch “Come from Away” on AppleTV instead. A great filmed performance of the Broadway play that I knew very little about until watching.

Exactly this.

Not my point but I see how you got there.

...an intimate teen drama that hinges entirely on the raw-nerve energy of its youthful lead to sell his character’s manipulative, cruel, selfish behavior as sympathetic rather than horrifying.

I’m seeing double!

I honestly cannot play console games unless I invert Y-axis when playing FPS/OTS games. It’s just the most jarring experience. I liken it to vertigo.

This. I have to invert the Y axis just because of Golden Eye and Rogue Squadron. N64 trained me.

Are you an OWL?

This goes for movies/shows as well, but subtitles always reveal what is about to happen which spoils more moments than you’d expect.

I mean, it’s kind of a generational thing, not “weird.” Back in the day, the Y-axis by default was setup in the way which is considered “inverted” today. It’s already baked into how many of us controlled the view/camera (and yoke in flight games) for a very long time.

Inverted for life.  My neck controls where my eyes point, back to look up, forward to look down, my eyes are just along for the ride.

I’m the opposite, I like my games dark and moody. I regularly seek out ReShade presets to banish the grays, and Ghost of Tsushima’s “dramatic” contrast mode was a godsend. I am counting the time until I can move from my budget LCDs to OLEDs or something else with inky, beautiful black levels. I’m so used to this…

Back when I was more into online games, I would always turn off voice chat as soon as possible. I’m not there to hear someone’s music playing over their mic, listening to them mouthbreathing, or to hear a bunch of preteens say racist shit, I’m just trying and failing to be decent at Overwatch (or whatever other game I…

I immediately make sure subtitles are OFF. If they’re on, I hyperfixate on them and miss everything else going on. If I can’t turn them off in cutscenes, I usually just don’t continue playing the game because it’s such a bad experience for me. I know this is the opposite of what most people do now.

The first thing I do is invert the Y-axis for cameras. I don’t usually play on a PC, so I often have no need to adjust performance settings.

Also, Ari is a monster for making font sizes as small as possible. All developers who have unreadable, tiny font should be ashamed, and I am against encouraging their criminal…

But what about second breakfast?

I finished Like A Dragon two days ago and immediately started up NG+. It is my first Yakuza game and is excellent for newcomers.
