Yeah I get to a certain point where I’m either brewing beer or wine and the money is just infinite.

The combat of MH didn’t necessarily bother me, so that’s good to hear. I jumped into MH several installments into the series might have been an issue (this was one that came out on Switch a year or two ago?), but the systems felt so byzantine and impenetrable I just gave up.

Interesting. Have you played Monster Hunter at all? I’ve tried but found it complex for no reason and bounced off of it. Curious to hear if there is any similarity with DD2.

Best I can do is this Mary Worth phone.

“Thank you for your feedback. Our team will take it into consideration” is really all that needs to be said, if anything.

I primarily have TSA Pre so I don’t have to take my shoes off or take my laptop out of my backpack. I’m already going to be waiting at the gate anyway.

Or just food in general. I don’t think most people realize how bad an unchecked e-coli or listeria or insert other food-born illness/virus/parasite here.

While art if primarily subjective in terms of how one enjoys it, there is certainly an objectiveness to the craft itself. I work in the field so I can differentiate “good” writing from “bad” writing, etc.

It’s like when trailers clip critic’s quotes. The quote should be “A terrific slog” but the trailer will say “...terrific...”

Also, Colin Farrell as Oz was a glorious revelation. I hope we get lots more of him.

Plus, how Hollywood studios have been taken over by IP and superhero IP. If audiences were smart, there would be a greater demand for original, and mid-budget adult-oriented movies.

Dude, yes. I’m 36 and also have fond memories of UO in the early days. Beyond what you said, online communities at the time were pretty rare/non-existant in the way we think about them today. So if a “secret” was discovered it wasn’t immediately everywhere the next day (or within a few hours). Most of the things I…

That is maybe the one thing Lynch’s Dune gets right. The design is so wild and feels lived in (people have pet pugs!). New Dune feels so sterile.

And at least MMOs had things to do that were actually fun.

Did well enough to get a season 2 which is great considering it’s trapped on Peacock.

The art they used looks like shit if you look at it for more than 10 seconds.

I believe there is a stipulation as to how long something can be “in development” without a film being made before rights revert. Otherwise, an entity could just say something is in development in perpetuity when all that “development” is is it being mentioned in a meeting, or existing as a title on a spread sheet.…

People complain about Hollywood running out of ideas

I also work in the creative arts and this is true. My theory is that art requires empathy and an open-mindedness to new thoughts and ideas. These are all things that your typical conservative does not have.

It’s wild how across the board MAGA folks can not understand how to produce anything aesthetically pleasing. Any time they try and create literally anything it looks like clip-art, Windows 95 slide show, horse shit.
