Its one of those things that seems like it’d be a great youth or YA comedy-horror movie/series. Its a market a lot of companies don’t want to go in to, but the smaller scale stuff that does tends to do well. Kids like being scared.

They had pitch meetings with various writers before Barbie even came out because they were anticipating so much success. A lot of them sound like terribly bland ideas, and sadly the weird and wild ideas were already being put in the “no” bin.

Also like....do they not get that the majority of people on the left are actually fine with one of our representatives being arrested if they committed a crime? If any president I voted for committed a criminal act like this and we have the evidence, I’d be thrilled our country was functioning enough to arrest and try…

I know people who work in the industry in Hollywood and I’ve asked them about Leto before. Apparently Leto is incredibly good at acting like a much bigger star than he is, showing up to the right parties, meeting the right people, and basically being super lucky to be attached to the right kinds of projects.

10 bucks says he’s actually a middle class suburban guy who is doing this whole “off the grid farmer” routine just to up his profile for when he starts making music doing influencer shit.

It isn’t actually a meme. Well, I guess it is a meme in that its a memetic form of communication, but its not an “internet meme” thing. That is “Astroturf” the fake grass. “Astroturfing” is a term used when a movement or idea or something is trying to fake being authentic (like being a fake “grassroots” movement). By…

You might have missed it or you could have just forgotten. They were a funny bit in the “99 Ships” episode explaining how so many of the other teams of Shlorpians were arrested by Silvercops because the cops basically arrest them on sight (turns out for good reason) then there was an episode with a story arc that took…

I feel the same way. The Wall was amazing at first, but that’s because it was played largely straight despite the absurdity and basically was spoofing every action movie and dystopia movie trope all at once. It ran out of steam pretty fast in season 2, and they killed just about any interesting character without much…

As great as Eldritch Blast is, don’t neglect using Wyll’s Searing Ray. It is a very powerful spell because of the number of rays it can fire exceeds Blast early in the game. Also, because of how warlock spell slots level up, Wyll automatically starts casting it at a higher level than Gale could, getting access to more…

I’ve played the game a lot in single and multiplayer, and yes, the way the dialogue system works is definitely designed around multiplayer. Works great in those circumstances. In single player I just can’t get used to the idea of sending different characters in my party to initiate conversations to pass skill checks…

Well that is annoying, but its nice that the quest had a few extra flags in it to accommodate for how many fucking ways there are to progress the story in this game. Especially since not doing that quest makes Halsin sad and disappointed in you and that just hurts.

Oh you need to go WAY back if you want to do the Creche, and honestly you should. Its a HUGE change in not just Lae’zel’s storyline but the overall storyarc, not to mention a lot of loot and xp. The Creche stuff more or less happens before the Shadowlands, its that Mountain Pass. The whole thing about the Underdark…

Good, little bastard deserves it. FYI for the Tower, make sure you do everything you plan on doing in all the zones other than the current one prior to the battle. Also might be a good idea to, oh I don’t know, investigate the tower in a clandestine fashion and see if there are any thing or possibly even people who…

You might have some luck if you manually go to where that portal would take you. There was a big statue on top of some stairs not far from the House of Healing, kind of on the road to the Tomb/Gauntlet. The portal he uses to run off goes there, but its reachable manually. There’s a chance he’s there anyways and you…

I feel like its just one of the first really tense levels many millennial kids played. I was a huge TMNT fan as a kid, so I loved the game, but I had a terrible time getting past that level because it felt so much harder than it was. I was also only like 6 or so, and hadn’t done a lot of other gaming. Once I played a…

The argument about finding appropriate antagonists is kinda bullshit because this game throws that crap out pretty fast. You’re dealing with insane threats at levels 6 or 7. It is an amazing game, but they do not have stuff follow a DnD style levelling curve, because it would seriously hamper the story. Their argument…

Oof yeah, that’s a bit tougher. I mean you might still be able to handle most of them. But any companion with okayish dex and Sleight of Hand will be fine, especially since you can just keep reusing kits until you succeed on traps and locks. Sometimes using a big beefy character on traps isn’t a bad idea, that way…

The rope thing bugs me the most. You find so much of it I expected it to come up, even if it was only in set locations, but so far I have never found use for it.

Talking to the animals is the best part of this game. I respecced my warlock just to have beast speech early on and it was worth it. Owlbear cub (whom I have dubbed “Wubbles”) and Scratch make it worthwhile, but then on top of that you have shit like the religious rats, the “ox,” the asshole eagles, the territorial…

It is absolutely more fun to just go with the consequences for the majority of stuff. There’s quite a few spots in the game where the failure leads to something you might not expect, there’s also points where you’ll feel like you have absolutely no good options, but everything actually works out for the best just by…
