See Saw is the absolute worst starting one. I actually dread seeing that one now when I play. The first couple days I got the game I loved it. I always seemed to be in the first or second row and so could get ahead of everyone and usually finished in the top 5. It’s actually the one I got the “emote before finishing…

As I close in on the platinum trophy having just finished winning 5 in a row I wonder how anyone can find any of these games difficult. The N64 platformer-style jump physics I guess just fit my specific skill set.

Fair enough. I’ll offer you a different take on valuation—not to disagree with yours, but because learning about how other people see things can be worthwhile (I definitely appreciated your approach!).

Length works for some games. Others, not so much. Sometimes I want a succinct, crafted experience that’s not excessively drawn out or, worse yet, padded with mindless junk

Different strokes. Everything you’ve mentioned(Sims, Beth RPGs, Stardew, etc) isn’t my kind of game. I’m close to 40 and got shit to do, so I like to one and done when I can. Though usually if it’s something I really enjoyed I’ll go back to it every few years. And when I do revisit a title I either marathon the whole…

The ambient soundtrack literally had a sobbing woman in the background.

Doom Patrol is on there too, but still on DCU thankfully.

Swamp Thing was killed by AT&T suits who didn’t like it. They were apparently under the impression that it was a children’s programming platform. (Thankfully they didn’t see early episodes of Titans or Doom Patrol) By the time they understood what audience DC Universe was for, it was too late for Swampy. It’s numbers…

Their numbers were up 23% during the lock down. Other than when HBOMax was announced and AT&T made it clear that they wanted it to be the only streaming service from Warner Bros. (A position they have since backed off of, with Filmstruck being the only one to get the ax.) There has been no indications from Warner…

It’s on Hulu right now, check it out. It's worth a watch. 

You’re doing yourself a disservice by not watching it already, the entire show is an homage to DC comics history. Darkseid is voiced by Michael Ironside, nuff said.

I think it must be doing alright since they keep putting money into original programming. That said I don’t think it is doing well enough to justify continuing it now that HBOMax is (theoretically) a home for all things WB. Like I said I think they should move all video programs and movies to HBOMax and just run DCU…

Maybe Twitch has finally realized that the platform is big enough that it doesn’t need to indulge individual celebrity assholes to survive.

The models still look like absolute abominations. I honestly don’t know who decided on this art direction, but its horrendous. Iron Man just looks all wrong.

I think it’s more that it’s kind of irresponsible in general to imply that entire races of people can be “evil,” or “bad,” because of their ancestry or genetics. I think there is absolutely still room to apply the sort of high level morality you’re talking about to factions or larger groups, but this becomes a bit…

WOW. This was worth reading for the description of Gleipnir alone. I’d never heard about this show before, but now I’m simultaneously intrigued and weirded out. Sounds like an interesting watch.

BNA enjoys Studio Trigger’s usual visual appeal and a premise full of interesting concepts. It’s pretty fun overall, but very little of its plot sees any follow-through. It’s clear the show is trying to say something, but never entirely apparent what that might be.

The thing is, the motives and story are all there, and they’re fantastic, but they are buried in Lore tabs and obscure scanables.  You have to work to find it and then spend the time reading it and piecing it together yourself (or just go find Byf on youtube and let him do it for you).  Bungie doesn’t want to alienate…

“What happened to that ship that was hurtling towards Earth?”

I’m done with Destiny 2, they can have my Deluxe Edition money i don’t care anymore. Moving forward reading about Destiny 2 is more interesting than playing it.
