I’m in the same boat, except I hadn’t touched it before (yet somehow, probably thanks to Trump (the Hearthstone one), I already knew units by name), and I’m 6-0 so far. I’m both obsessed and mad with power.

I would have to add to this list just... something from 12 Monkeys. Maybe the start, maybe the end, maybe just the whole thing, but that show was an amazing surprise this year.

Sounds a lot like what happened with Diablo 3. Not a terrible game when it came out, but so many things were wrong that it was hard to like what was actually good about it.

Took them a bit longer to release their expansion, but it solved just about every major issue with the game and made it feel so much better. Seems…

Yeah, and remember Desert of Exile’s Ztera and Zuma, Ranger/Bear combo?

Nobody does, that’s ok. We remember.

“Wilhelmina Murray”

It sounds like they are trying not to just shrug and give in though. From what little experience I have in design, it sounds like they just aren’t willing to settle for the “I guess this works” solution to letting players practice things. It really does sound like they have a few ideas as to how to do this right, but…

You know, going just by the quarks in this thing, it looks pretty standard of a particle.

So, for the sake of clarity, is he still associated with The Last Guardian project?

I’m particularly confused because his new studio’s logo shows up before The Last Guardian, but is tagged “Creative by genDESIGN”, and am having a particularly difficult time parsing what exactly that means. Is it just that he/they did…

So, I really loved this season. The whole damn thing. And I think it's because its what I always hoped LOST would have been.

Not sure about Nikita, but my brain jumped immediately to Peter Outerbridge from ReGenesis, where he fought to stop (several) global plagues.

Alright, I know this was a promotional picture, and they probably wanted to throw us for a loop, but the beam was yellow in 2015 when this scene happened right? Did they really shop it just to throw us off? Are they actually paying as much attention to this show as we are, cause... that's impressive.

I was wondering, after Cole paradoxed himself (which was incredibly cool), Cassie (or was it Dr Jones?) told him that he could never go back to 2043, that he belongs to 2015 now. I was wondering if that isn't the trick we need to get out of the cycle.

...but it's starting to look as though the loops are tied so tight that any freedom of motion will only happen at the margins. Which, I guess, is the point, maybe?

I agree with you, time's getting more and more tightly wound, and something's going to snap.

There was some mention of that during the episode, I think. The... Striking Woman (is that her official title, or just what we're going with?) said something about not being touched by time or something like that. I don't think she aged a day either during the jump from the 90s to 2015, so there's something going on…

So, and this is a question that's come up a few times in my head with regards to Spearhead: Why are they trying to cure the virus in the first place? I mean, from a scripting/storytelling standpoint, I get it, it's an alternative to Project Splinter so that they can do all the cool storytelling things they want, but I…

It was the recording they found from Cassie. It had Cole's name on it, and when she heard his name as he was being beat, her ears perked up and she did what people who are too smart and too driven always do: She jumped to a conclusion.

So, interestingly enough, I know exactly how you feel, and I'm more than just ok with it, I rather enjoyed the difficulty gating.
