Didn’t even mention Daikatana.

I rewatched this a couple days ago in the privacy of my own home, having not seen it since it came out.

It’s fucking awful. The laziest, most thoughtless white saviour script you can imagine, with terrible dialogue, nil on-screen chemistry, and over-edited action sequences.

The best scene in the movie is Sigourney

Yes.

Except the stuff in the Southlands, those Arondir and friend are dull as can be.

I threw in the towel after the episode where Space Amazon is revealed to just need a little HR work to be a better megacorp, and it was the oppressed boy struggling against the system who was the real villain, thank God the doctor passively lets him die.

Nauseating. I had such high hopes and the series took such a

Recent took my friend, long-time Eva series fan, through all the Eva movies, with it being my second viewing, and they’re even worse than I remember. Three is definitely the nadir, but the fourth has a truly wonderful stretch of time with Rei learning about personhood and living before the movie cavalier slaughters

That’s true about Cora. Both times I’ve played MEA I remained really annoyed at the extent to which the game didn’t allow to hate your father and react with appropriate disgust and horror and having SAM in your head. Once the opening cutscene is done your relationship with SAM is coded as friendly, no matter that he’s

MEA isn’t a very good game is what I’m saying.

It reaches its apotheosis with Liam, who I frequently wanted to flush out an airlock because he was a quipping loose cannon who didn’t listen and also clearly lied his way into the program. If memory serve there is a plot point where he reveals he lied about something, but I mean his whole life is a lie - the crisis

I do pretty well with the assets you can dig up for Tabletop Simulator, and I’ve even made a few myself.

I always like to add an ornate silver letter opener to my games and seeing what players come up with in their fevered imaginations for what it’s possible true purpose could be.

(The answer? Opening letters.)

I once ran a Star Wars game about infiltrating a Star Destroyer in drydock and the party managed to get stuck in an officer’s dining room for four hours.

Sigh. This happens all the time. Would the real Slim Shady please stand up?

Well it’s about the most boring character in Rogue One, a cast composed exclusively of boring non-entities.

So my hope aren’t high.

Never post first thing after you wake up. I know thus by now, yet I still do it.

I really enjoyed Pikmin 3 but remember being really disappointed it only seemed to be, what, two hours long?

It takes forty minutes for WW to have a single line of dialogue that isn’t clunky exposition, and it ends with the same tedious 45-minute fight sequence as all these movies.

Sure, WW84 is probably worse, but it only makes WW good in comparison. It’s a lousy movie.

Jesus Christ was I in a shitty fucking mood when I wrote this, how embarrassing. Why did I give a shit? What a prat I come off as.

No, I don’t. I only got to that cutscene just now some eight and a half hours into the game.

They haven’t released a successful new game since 2014 and have no current ETAs for putting any games in the near future, meaning it is likely that it will have been at least a full decade since their last successful new release by the time their next game releases.

What metric for ‘good’ are you using?

“you’re always connected to the internet anyway.”
