Apologies, but you’re missing my point: I disagree that ‘everyone’ knows him from Batman TAS. I certainly don’t, and I suspect that the HQ show has introduced an entirely new audience to him who are in no way beholden to any memory or experience with a thirty year old television program, along with old time fans who

Sadly.

No, it’s not.

Zack Snyder’s Watchmen, James McTigue’s V For Vendetta, and The Hughes Brothers’ From Hell.”

Yeah, it’s weird he doesn’t like three shitty movies. What a crank.

Clayface you may know from Batman: The Animated Series” the extremely popular Harley Quinn cartoon series that’s airing in the present day Christ why does it feel like nobody at the AVClub has any sense of the media landscape any more?

I want Emily VanDerWerff/St. James back. And TV Club Classic. And just... something

I would also add the late 70s drama Family to that list.

Over a decade later it’s branched out”

Two decades, Kotaku. Rooster Teeth is approaching its twentieth anniversary: Red vs Blue started in 2003.

Okay. I read it half a dozen times trying to parse the tone— it was the “ah yes” that had me bamboozled. Reading tone on the internet it heckin’ difficult.

It really was a problem in Origins, though. The game presents you with the most miserable knightly order that kills its initiates functionally so the story can show

The Toronto you loved has been plowed under for shitty condos, I’m afraid. Whatever you loved about it, it’s dead or about to be.

It feels like you’re being sarcastic but I didn’t play the second or third game so have no way of relating to your complaint.

Every single entry here made this game sound progressively less appealing, because each one frankly comes off as ‘here’s a system that’s not good, here’s how to get around it.’ The secret tips and tricks to playing Cyberpunk 2077 seem to be: skip vast portions of it that are lousy.

Why? Why bother? This just makes me

That’s not how Roberty Downey’s Holmes’ ‘tastes’ that’s how all film negative tastes: we’ve asked you to stop suckling the negatives a hundred times. Please stop putting them in your mouth for pity’s sake you can’t absorb a film that way it’s not an oral medium.

No, I think their question was more fundamental than that, let me take a crack at answering:

This ‘is an article’ because written language, broken into discreet units known as words, can be arranged in such a way in a visual medium so as to produce in the ‘reader’s’ mind an understanding of meaning such that the

There is no moral relativism in Tolkien’s world where orcs and Sauron are concerned”

Incorrect.

In Morgoth’s Ring Tolkien says: But even before this wickedness of Morgoth was suspected the Wise in the Elder Days taught always that the Orcs were not ‘made’ by Melkor, and therefore were not in their origin evil. They

I tried playing Origins, but ended-up super invested in my story of a Dwarven princess unjustly deposed and exiled from her home. When they game wouldn’t let me make that right, when it insisted I had to go back to the tedious Grey Wardens and their shitty society - I gave up.

I understand the lore explains why I have

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.
