    Avengers: Infinity War (2018)

    It also could have been "chance except for these few choices" which is basically what it amounted to in the comics.

    PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds

    According to the reddits, PUBG Pass is 1 month. Also, Fortnite is free, $10 for 10 weeks, PUBG costs $20-$30, is $10 for 4 weeks. Yea. Awesome.

    Fallout 76

    I don't know who would claim Steam wasn't a pile to start, it was worse at finding servers to start than the various community ones that'd been made and I was kinda pissed at Steam for replacing them with their shit ass UI and implementation. They've come a long way but they still have serious...

    League Of Legends

    Riot has been working on "at least" 1 non-LoL game for a couple years, according to them. They've even hired specifically for it a couple times. I think they'd be crazy not to put out League Lore related games of some kind, but I actually think they've teased that the thing they're working on...

    League Of Legends

    Fortnite will run into the same esports problem PUBG has - the game itself is a terrible format for esports. Counter-Strike and OW have reasonable esports scenes because, even though they're also shooters, they are team vs. team and way fewer players to manage. Any Battle Royale game is going to...

    Captain Marvel (2019)

    It's fair to call it a dumb reason to claim a movie got bad reviews, but it's not fair to pretend like this is some kind of new thing only inspired by one group of people in a movement. People have been making up really shit excuses for why their movie / game / show / book / art / food / penis /...

    League Of Legends

    I think you guys might be wrong in assuming that not being #1 means declining viewers or popularity - the Twitch audience has grown a lot, and some of the league games over the past week have surpassed numbers for last years LCS finals. Just because other games have a larger audience doesn't...

    Fallout 76

    Pretty much all the game publishers / devs that can afford to make their own launcher / distribution system have done so at this point. Steam's business model isn't unfair or unreasonable, but for the few big pubs, they decided they could make more by building their own infrastructure than...

    Just Cause 4

    I was excited anyway but the more they show the more hype I am. JC3 was fun, albeit disappointing, looks like JC4 might address a lot of my complaints, and new engine even!

    Fallout 76

    I like co-op survival but have avoided Rust / etc. because I don't have time to be bothered with PvP / griefing at the same time (for PvP I'll play BR or League or something totally PvP) - I like the Fallout mainline games well enough but I'm kind of hopeful there'll be "blue" shards or...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    I would agree with that, but I am not some casual noob. Like I said, I've given it a shot many many times, and each time I spend hours reading notes, builds, advice, etc., and tend to follow some "fun" build or other. It's not that I don't understand what I'm doing, it's that I don't like what I...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    I've tried PoE basically every major update since their early beta and I have never once actually had fun. I would rather play Diablo 1, or 2, or 3, or Van Helsing or give Grim Dawn another shot (which I also found boring). While PoE has some good ideas I absolutely hate some of their decisions...

    Ralph Breaks the Internet: Wreck-It Ralph 2 (2018)

    I remember when people used to complain about things worth complaining about, rather than "a non-white-male had a scene/did something!" That scene doesn't even pass the Bechdel test, which I have to imagine is a pretty low bar in the "SJW" realm. I think it's perfectly fair to make fun of how...

    John Wick: Chapter 3 (2019)

    There are very, very, very few actual action movies where the main character dies, and all of those have it happen at the end of the movie in some heroic and usually cheesy manner (the thing parodied in Deadpool 2). The tenseness is almost never from believing the character could die, it's from...
