Yeah I don’t think the Source Crystals can be used to buy boxes, just the Credits you earn in game. And even then, Diamond and Platinum can only be earned, not bought.

I loved Luke Cage, but I’ll agree that sidelining Mariah for Diamondback was a bit lame. Diamondback, and that whole story, would have been better served coming up right at the end of Season 1, as a thread for Season 2 to pick up on. It would have been really nice to see Mariah and Shades wreak some havoc only to have…

Took me 24ish through Route A. I did most side quests and quite frequently just messed around enjoying the combat system. Honestly, with all but one sidequest done first time through all Routes, the game took me just under 50 hours.

Yep get that. I liked the OG Prey well enough but to be honest, even the Prey 2 pitch wasn’t really a continuation of that story.

They aren’t though, they are using the IP and trademark. Just because its not the same doesn’t mean its lost.

I don’t disagree with you though, I don’t think this game HAD to be called Prey, and may have been received with less confusion had they just used an original name. I personally am not bothered by it, but I get…

I mean, I get where you are coming from, I enjoyed the original game for what it was and all. But Bethesda owns the IP and trademark, so can really do what they want with it. Hell, Arkane could have pitched this as its own thing and Bethesda said “we like it, but call it Prey so we don’t lose that IP...”

It’s only new in name, since Gunfire was formed from Vigil’s ashes. Quite a few of the Darksiders and Darksiders 2 devs work at Gunfire. The few that don’t work for Airship Syndicate, which is also making games with Nordic.

Best thing: it’s from Gunfire Games which is a huge chunk of the Vigil staff from Darksiders and Darksiders 2. So they get to keep working on a franchise they had obvious love for.

She’s a Horsemen. War, Death, Fury, Strife for the Darksiders versions.

The Darksiders Horsemen are War, Death, Fury and Strife.

While true, I don’t have a cable sub or anything. I don’t want to watch movies via an app or appointment, if I want to watch a movie I either buy or rent it as needed. I understand the appeal to some, but my only interest is American Gods and Ash. I’d rather pay 60 a year for those two than 108 for 16 weeks worth of…

They would get money if they offered a Season Pass, like they did with Ash Vs Evil Dead...

It is utterly ridiculous that there is not, as of yet, a Season Pass for the show on Amazon Prime. I have no interest in Starz beyond American Gods and Ash Vs Evil Dead. Ash had a season Pass, why not American Gods? So fuck it, as much as I love Neil Gaiman and want to support his work IMMEDIATELY, I’m just going to…

The book it was based off of is called Pontypool Changes Everything. I don’t recall ever hearing about a planned sequel, but i wish they would released the damn thing properly on BluRay.

Marshall seems to like directing his own stuff. Kind of found his niche, which is weird stuff he likes, and it works. For my money, I’ve loved the hell out of every one of his flicks, especially Dog Soliders and The Descent.

Neil Marshall wrote it as well, the only stuff he has made he didn’t write has been his TV work.

I get the criticism of Strong for sure. I had to warm up to her take a bit, but it also seemed like she was very much going for a believable match to Sorkin. Its close, just different enough to be new, but otherwise pretty consistent with Sorkin’s take. Rauch is just... generic, slightly enthusiastic indefinably…

I have to agree about Melissa Rauch’s work here... Its forced and uninteresting. Makes the character seem like she’s faking everything. Arleen and Strong are the only two voices for Harley, and I’d still love to hear Arleen back!

You watched a different BvS than I did, because I got nothing of ideals and morality from it. None of the characters display an adherence to ideals or even an adherence to Batman’s morality. The closest it gets is Wondy only wanting to get her picture and GTFO before changing her mind, and that is a minor plotpoint.…

Don’t get me wrong, I’m glad you liked it, but I think generalizing the issues to Critical expectations vs Fan expectations is wrong.
