I came expecting to see a pic with a room full of white guys, looked at that pic and got excited that there were so many women and persons of color. Then I made the mistake of reading what the criticism was actually about and promptly remembered why I hate humans of the internetz.

That’s a good point! But it’s always signed Casey (and meow Cecilia) & Fei in the bottom corner.

Touche. I guess I’ll have to eat crow on this one!

I think you mean this impression:

I had this impression.

Yeah the sci-fi plot was great but the actual characterization and stuff outside of the overarching sci-fi plot weren’t very good.

Your response here is evidence in support of her original thesis that wypipo are fragile.

Is there a good reason Idris Elba isn’t James Bond yet? Everyone I know who has watched anything he’s in says, yeah, he’s perfect.

Look, man, I asked people to ask me questions, and they asked me some pretty (purposely) stupid questions. I answered the framerate / resolution question in the text of this blog post. If you wanna know how big the file size is: Bayonetta 1 is 8.5 gigabytes and Bayonetta 2 is 12.4 gigabytes. The rest of the questions…

Absolutely. I can’t really bring myself to pony up $20 for it, so I’ll wait for a sale. Doesn’t mean that $20 is an unfair price.

A lot of games have ACE exploits that are really awesome. The Legend of Zelda has a highly specific series of inputs that let players go right to Zelda’s room at the end and Symphony of the Night has a really amazing bit of menu navigation that triggers a credits warp.

I thought Bayonettas dad went bad cause he imprisoned the spirit of the bad guy within himself thus eventually succumbing to corruption. Not through any desire for vengeance.

As a prolonged short, it’s a waste of the animation. There’s no growth, nothing is learned, it’s all just gratuitous in the end. That’s fine for a short bit, but even a five minute comedy sketch generally has superficial development for the characters if no plot. This was ultimately just empty and mean.

My favorite character of the year has to be Velvet Crowe from Tales of Berseria. The queen of darkness and one of the most human protagonists of the series in recent years.

I feel as though a lot of criticism of the show is by deliberately misinterpreting Discovery’s unconventional (for Star Trek) approach to depicting Star Trek ethos. Lorca’s not the hero. He’s a villain and will get his villain’s comeuppance. The show is folding the series’ conventional morality into an ongoing…

It was actually a terrific character moment and not the only time that Lorca has done something questionable that goes against everything we know about how Star Fleet commanders and Federation representatives should act. The same can be said for Michael too though. It will be interesting to see what happens to them in…

Lorca is a great example of a good character who is not a good person (nor a villain). I like that he’s on the show, but nowhere does it say “hey check out this upstanding fellow.”

I have a feeling he’s going to go down fighting the Klingons. But even if he ends up a hero for a brief moment, his failings will be brought to light, and frankly, he might end up being one of those people taught in the Academy of what not to be like.

It was a dramatic and awful rebuke of the sort of moral core Star Trek has prided itself on for decades, and a low point for the series.
