“Not even in the issue’s “bonus” page online (that you had to scan a QR code to see)“

oh FUUUUUCK that noise. A cellphone is the last medium I want to experience anything on and I continue to be baffled by my entire generation.

“Like... c’mon, guys. Can I please just be a hero?”

Frank Miller and Christopher Nolan say ‘no.’

Pillars of Enternity’s biggest issue is that its combat mechanics are far less interesting than its story.

That and Matt Mercer voices too many characters and I don’t hear them as characters I just hear Matt MErcer and it’s really distracting.

(And, if I’m being nitpicky, the load times suck ass, the stronghold never…

“Director Chris McQuarrie Is on a Mission With Tom Cruise to Get Us in Theaters”

Cut ticket prices by 2/3rd, the cost of popcorn 1/4, bring back matinees, and have more showings in 2D that people like me can actually see and I’ll go, possibly even several time if the picture’s worth seeing.

Otherwise, go fuck yourselves.

And it’s better than the first book, too. An entire hotel in space gets eaten by aliens and it’s not even the climax of the story. 10/10, flawless.

Been asking this for decades.

I’ve tried with PAddington but the whole opening opening with a Gilligan’s Island-esque marmalade machine in a jungle really put me off—it jsut seemed to far removed from the quiet character I lvoed. Should I push on through?

Here’s my thought: they’d save a lot of time if they started with what they did in first movie—a really exciting and energetic ten minute fight scene—but then rather than filming a mediocre and listless 110 other minutes they just stop there.

It’d be out already, and much more enjoyable, if for no other reason than a…

Indeed. I always wonder ‘but what if the money spent on all these 16K texture packs had been spent on polishing emchanis so the game was, y’know, fun. To play. Instead of just impressive to look at.

I just did a three month Google-sponsored IT tech course whose primary selling point was industry professionals. A decade prior I went through an intensive two-year course in a different but equally demanding technical field.

In both cases I wished I’d had people who knew how to teach
first, regardless of their…

What you’re describing you’d change is the game though - setting and lore is window dressing , the combat and the loot is the game.

Nope.

It’s bad by every metric the shuttle was sold to the public on, and it’s a minor miracle that success rate wasn’t lower given how overconfident NASA was with the shuttle so many times its a macabre joke.

I’ve sunk a lot of time into NMS (until a year and a half ago when a bug only I seem to have ruin crafting for me and me alone) and while I like it it never becomes the game I want it to be

So you’re saying it’s a game that would benefit from being a completely different game?

Famerate-at-all-costs is such gamer brainrot disease.

I bailed on this show mid-way through season 2 on the grounds that the characters the two main male leads were inhabiting were so much more interesting than the plots they were being shoved in, while poor Ciri had nothing to do but wander vaguely from place to place (with a sidekick boy never given so much as a single…

Season 2 of Beastars was so strong and then it just nosedived into shit come the finale, throwing out every point it had made early in the season with an idiotic ‘well its okay if Lagoshi does it” to help him win a dumb fight with a glorified background extra.

An actually unique Superman story would just be two hours of him helping out ordinary citizens of metropolis with their day-to-day, non-world-threatening crises.

Spider-verse bluntly demonstrates that you don’t need to show the origin story because everyone seeing the movie knows it. You can reference it throughout your whole film and simply save 20 minutes of time because the audience knows what Krypton blowing-up looks like they’ve been watching it on movie screens since Flei…
