I’m overweight and I found it needlessly offensive.  So that’s 2:1.

Exactly I was so hyped after The Last Jedi....and then we got the train wreck of a story starting with “PALPATINE LIVES!”

Huh? She has all those things. More so than previous protagonists even. Last time i checked there wasn’t any massive character growth for the protagonist of the original trilogy and the less we say about the prequels the better

Im glad they’re not gonna bow to the toxic fan base. 

History will be kind to Rian Johnson/The Last Jedi for at least daring to be interesting and different. Instead, everyone filled their diapers and they panicked and did Rise of Skywalker instead and it sucked.

Yup. Let’s just ignore Rise happened and build off the ideas from TLJ. What does a post Jedi/Sith world look like.

YES!

The bar may have been exceedingly low after the last D&D movie I saw in theaters, but I went with a group and they all loved it, including those who have never played the game.

Great film- my fellow campaign members and I saw it together.  Two of them are pretty harsh film critics but they loved it

That sequence had such a great pay off with the end of the film. 

The best gaming subtext is in the scene at the bridge in the Underdark: The DM has set up an elaborate environmental puzzle, but one of the players immediately ruins it up by fucking around and rolling a critical fail, so the DM has to decree that the party has been carrying around another way to cross the whole time.

The first time I ever played, one of the other group members spent the first 80% of the session rolling a D12 instead of a D20.

The movie fails to capture those times when our party dice rolling goes so ice cold that a basic encounter becomes a situation where the party is genuinely on the brink of losing their lives, as always seems to happen with my folks

I loved the fact that they threw around “Neverwinter” and “Baldur’s Gate” and other bits and bobs of lore without explanation. It made this filthy casual happy to get the references while making the world feel like people lived in it.

“Oh, that city / magic relic / legendary Paladin? I’ve heard of him. Now we can move…

Reading your comment is exhausting grumpy pants. There’s nothing wrong with trying to find a connection between two versions of something you like. For a game like DnD, it’s inevitable that those comparisons will happen.

That article’s headline was intentionally misleading. The writer basically said that Cyberpunk couldn’t be saved because it didn’t need any saving. The game was good from the start, the writer just didn’t realize that on their first playthrough because they skipped all the side-quests and rushed through the main story…

A Kotaku article praising CP2077?  Is it Opposite Day?

Ah, Bobby K.

The guy who lawyered up to make a sexual harassment suit from his flight attendant from his private lane to go away, settled for $200K + $475K in legal fees, then stiffed his lawyer on her bill, the lawyer sued Bobby, and he ended up paying over twice as much in settlement to his own lawyer as he did to…

I only came in to say this. Thanks for doing it for me! I don't think many people care what this guy has to say. 

Is this supposed to make anyone feel bad for not caring for Microsoft’s output? Because I sure don’t feel sorry for them.
