Season 3 should focus on the actual oil and gas industry. Sadly, from the sounds of it, this is what Sheridan shows do, which is just focus on retarded drama shit with women acting ridiculous. Probably why I never got into shows like Yellowstone.

You see stuff like that and the conspiritard in me says it's an awfully big coincidence that this movie lined up with the government release of UFO files, where they also convinced a bunch of people to repeat essentially that same line about how this would make people question God. Almost like...

I get your point. But does anyone care right now? You can chalk it up to bad writing (and whatever other bad production is going into them), but I think people are fatigued of all of these franchises. They've been bleeding them dry.

They should probably just stop making DC movies for a while. Like the RLM review of Grogu, they need to shelve Star Wars for a good 20 years. No more Batman and Superman remakes. Just stop. The audience needs to breathe without you just shoveling more dog shit into the theaters.

I don't know how those work, but if you read the actual audience reviews on RT it's getting torn to shreds. Then again, I feel like all that shit has been fake for a while now. IMDB for sure was astroturfed with fake reviews years ago, but since they locked their shit behind accounts I don't see...

That might be enough for me to try this out. I did have to laugh at bandits. Feels like that was a feature "coming soon" a decade ago. If you can also disable that retarded biome badge shit they added, that'd be nice too. I haven't played since before whatever introduced that.

The only flaw in your plan is 70% replacement rate for Social Security relies on the intake of current FICA taxes. If AI displaces that much of the workforce, suddenly they're not collecting FICA anymore and that 70% drops to almost nothing, if not zero.

That's why these threads go like this though. We can see the nugget that if they'd do it right, would be successful. We want these games to succeed. And every time they fuck it up. I don't shit all over MnM because I'm just an asshole and want it to fail. It's because they could've had a game...

I think his issue is they're basically triple dipping? You're paying a box price and subscription, and yet that's still not enough for you to have all the content, so they're doing micro transactions on top of it all. Even for a brand new AAA game that seems like a stretch, but for this? C'mon...

Dunno man, Spielberg seems like one of those (all of them?) who people assume makes good movies, but then you realize no, he was a product of a time period and after that time period he either got in his own head, or it just didn't work anymore. Has he made a truly great movie in the last two...

You asked for it. I'm just here to provide a little joy to your day.

It's funny to me that they're relying on "this is still closed beta," when they were supposed to be in early access already. But worse, they're like 3 months out from their new early access date, where they will be charging people to play the game. So I think criticism of anything is fair game...

On a superficial level I'd agree with you, but graphics don't even remotely correlate with "fun." I've got more hours in Terraria than any other game. In fact, the games I typically find the most fun resorted to more basic graphics almost across the board. Basically any AAA game nowadays...

Ah shit, I completely forgot about that. Because it seemed like a throw away scene from the previous episode. Thanks for that!

I mean, I agree the gameplay is definitely fun. It's the big difference between the two games to me. MnM I feel like the game is actively fighting me, adding tedium wherever possible. Any fun I have is basically in spite of the game, not because of it. AoA is fun because they removed all the...
