I mean sports teams player also don’t own the franchises to which their attached, but there’s still some kind of freedom of movement: that is, at least in theory, a baseball player in the MLB could find work playing baseball in a team in a franchise unrelated to MLB. By contrast an overwatch player can’t join an…

I stand with labour and with the players, but this does highlight what I think is a fundamental problem with most esports: the inability of workers to seize the means of production by dint of the fact that what they do is play IP-owned video games. Further, I’m not sure about the sustainability of any company owned-and…

Something I’ve been wondering since LOTR: Gollum came out is: is there any reality where this game could have been good? Because even when I first heard about it I thought it a bad premise for a game, from the started is sounded like the LOTR shovelware we would have gotten on the PS2 circa 2002.

Of course you’d have pronouns and experience as an environment artist.

What queer Overwatch 2 players need is for the Blizzard to not abandon the promises originally made for the game, and for queer rep to not feel like a PR move to distract from the company’s absolute bullshit.

So, in other words, queer Overwatch 2 fans are in the same boat as the straight ones: they need to get out of…

I keep meaning to see that.

Marketing.

Sttttaaaammmooooooosss

I mean its no Casablanca.

Oh thank Christ there’s few people in Hollywood these days who can act less than Gadot.

She’s the Orlando Bloom of the 2010s: she can look pretty and has all the screen presence of a dry sponge.

Wouldn’t it be wild if they didn’t? If the story did a sudden right turn and went deep into anti-miscegenation about fire and water people?

That would at least be surprising.

I considered Coco the reverse Up: the entire weight of the movie is ultimately packed into the last ten minutes, leaving you with 90+ minutes of a movie that’s just sort of... there. And I think non-opening parts of Up were far stronger than the non-ending parts of Coco.

Coco’s problem, really, is that it lacks the…

So it seems like on viewing it comes off as exactly like the completely mediocre story it looked like in every trailer and description in interviews?

Shocked. Shocked!

It was nice of all the NPCs to stand around and wait patiently for Spidey to finish attacking their colleague before attacking themselves.

Fixing the bugs won’t change the fact that the game itself doesn’t sound playable, fun, or worth anyone’s time.

I found it very weird in the original HZD when you’d ride a robot into a community and nobody so much as commented.

Man that came was desperate for a more reactive world. Or at least a world where a lone NPC facing a giant robot bird sensibly ill go ‘no, actually, fuck this’ and run away.

Anything to make the Seanchan interesting.

Anything.

After slogging through Discovery i was excited o get to SNW which everyone told me was ‘fantastic.’

It’s... fine. I continue to be really turned-off by how casually everyone speaks to one-another at all times why are the Starfleet officers on the literal children’s show the only people in modern Trek who act and talk li…

That was ‘we-my-family’ not ‘we-my-nation’ though I realize now that was totally ambiguous. I hate hockey and Tim Hortons too much to make it as national spokesman.

What money? Nobody here makes any money.
