I’m really loving the characterization in this show. It’s only been four episodes and I feel like I know who everybody is. If La’an tells you to raise shields you better raise those freaking shields! I even got scared for the kid running the transporter!

I have been stunned so far in how much meat you can pack into 45…

It’s going to mean a lot of different things to a lot of different people. For me though? It’s the likable characters and the realistic tone of their interactions. The disaster movie genre often falls into the same trap as horror in presenting cartoonish archetypes to hate, but the first JP mostly avoids this.

The…

I honestly don’t care about how it connects to the trilogy. If they do Shepard again, fine, whatever. I can take or leave it

I sank thousands of hours into RTCW and ET before World of Warcraft came out and destroyed my free time for 5 years. I know Splash went on to create other games in the same style, but they never quite hooked me like the originals.

Something similar actually happened in World of Warcraft shortly after it was released. The bows in the game had a very quiet (but realistic) squeaking noise when firing, while the guns had a much louder gunshot sound.

Within a couple of months Blizzard replaced the quiet squeaking sound with a super loud (and…

I choose to imagine an alternate universe in which Natasha Lyonne is the Fourteenth Doctor.

They should remake the comic sections as live action FMVs with the development team in terrible costumes! Embrace the weird of the first game!!

HBO is a burst sewage pump blasting red hot excrement into the gaping maw-like eyes of the empty

This. The “mad king stewing in his castle” vibe really feels like bad news

Should have got Clint Eastwood. Would save a fortune in makeup costs!

I mean the thing that makes most SCPs interesting is that they break physical law. That’s what makes them unsettling. If they obeyed the rules they wouldn’t be SCPs.

I always used to get a good laugh during Bioware games when every NPC across Dragon Age and Mass Effect would do the exact same “exit screen right” animation at the end of a conversation. It’s just videogames!

Tom Cruise is now a year older than Jon Voight was in the first movie.

What gets me are the legacy bugs that were copied into the new edition.

You’d think a new release like this would be an opportunity to make a bunch of fan fixes official. There’s a whole list of mission bugs and weird trigger glitches that were unofficially patched... and then had to be unofficially patched again a few…

Like 90% of stories printed in The Sun. This is a bullshit story

Is that the opening line?

The Mass Effect universe is a very good base for a bunch of cool stories, but I absolutely agree about Shepard. Sadly the way these projects usually pan out is to mine the product for recognition value

I’m totally happy to carry this blame.

Something that has disappointed me about all the subsequent Angel returns has been their appearance. At the end of Blink they throw in a little montage of statues that imply these entities can assume any shape as camo, but even on another planet in the distant future they still look like churchyard angels.
