    League Of Legends

    I thought, for the most part, groups was pretty fun this year. LZ was the only team that made me go "holy shit they're good", every other team that made it to quarters had good back-and-forth games with their opponents. Also GAM was super entertaining as well as random Yasuo and Vayne and pocket...

    The New Mutants (2019)

    I'm assuming all the spoopy skellies are from one mutant but who knows. It's so abstract from what we're used to seeing with X-Men or even Superhero stuff it's hard to say what direction they went. It's refreshing but at the same time I like to see mutants doing mutant stuff like kicking ass.

    Horizon: Zero Dawn

    I 100% everything in my playthrough except I missed a bunch of the text lore scan things and a few of the voice ones. Do the ones I have carry over into NG+? Is there a way to actually track those bastards down? I was kind of hoping you'd get the option to show them on the map after you beat the...

    League Of Legends

    Even when they were on top in NA LCS, TSM games never looked particularly great. They just played well enough often enough basically. NA teams being knocked out by EU hurts after Rift Rivals was such a beating, especially with how lackluster all the EU teams looked for... the whole season.

    Middle-earth: Shadow of War (Shadow of Mordor Sequel)

    ESRB and PEGI both said publicly that they can't label games as having "gambling" unless they are legally labelled as gambling by the government, which seems like a cop-out to me but they probably don't want to draw unneeded fire to themselves. Giving games the gambling tag would make them 18+ I...

    The New Mutants (2019)

    I feel like you could do an awesome Sandman series in the vein of Animatrix, each segment being done by different studios. Even different voice actors sometimes, considering. That would be fantastic. Sandman movie though? No way they pull that off.

    Star Trek: Discovery

    Maybe it is in the mirror universe, so in the Prime universe they do have goatees and eyeliner and sexy outfits. We're seeing the lamer versions of them here.

    Thor: Ragnarok (2017)

    I really can't imagine the humor being exactly the same. WWDitS was kind of low key, darkish, Australian humor mixed with Office style awkward bits. Ragnarok looks flashy, bright, and the kind of quippy snappy stuff Marvel movies have at their best. I loved WWDitS but I really don't know that it...

    Spectre (2015)

    Spectre was seriously just a bad movie. I can even kind of enjoy some of the later Brosnan movies but Spectre was godawful and yes the ending is just... among the worst minutes of Bond film to date.

    Justice League (2017)

    Modern editing for mass appeal? Or Mefma for short. I just made that up but it sounds about right. Mefma shots.

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    It's not that meta though is it? We already have Kylo being not-a-Sith and we don't know what the Knights of Ren (sp?) are or if they're Force users in their ranks. Snoke appears to be a Force user but by all logic he can't be a Sith either. Unless he secretly took it upon himself to be one...

    Blade Runner 2049 (2017)

    I saw it at the Alamo Drafthouse here in KC which actually tends to be on the loud side (fucking Antman was a little difficult to sit through at times), but they toned it down or something and it was spot-on for this.

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    Eh, not sure we're on the same page. I don't see Luke abandoning the Jedi as defeatist, I see it as ascendant. The Jedi were, theoretically, a group for good, but they were huge and had weird cultish rules and ultimately F'd themselves in the A. The point isn't that you don't need well trained...

    Grim Dawn

    So if I found this boring playing through the campaign once after the full release, will I enjoy the game yet? Did they make decent loot less RNG? Did they make respeccing a thing? Is there a non-campaign mode of the map so I don't have to deal with all the traveling and gates from the main...

    Middle-earth: Shadow of War (Shadow of Mordor Sequel)

    Actually that's just any WB game, they get really discounted pretty fast. I think I pre-ordered the first game for fucking $33 with no special membership anywhere. Mad Max has been $4 a million times. The Batman games hit super low a lot too.

    Rick and Morty

    Yea, I never plan to totally make anything he makes, but I swear every video he has some super useful tip hidden in there for us "commoners" to use in the kitchen. The pasta one you mentioned is one of the most approachable though and tasty.

    Kingsman: The Golden Circle (2017)

    Uh.... the war on drugs is massively unpopular in the U.S., and has been for years. A select few powerful politicians and hardcore conservative bases are really the only ones keeping it alive. It's unpopular enough where cities and even entire states of people have started moving away from it...

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    I'm hoping "the last Jedi" is just because Luke doesn't believe in the "Jedi" as an institution anymore, and pushes Rey into a more cult-independent path. Either she wants to learn from Kylo how to better control her powers from another perspective or they join up to become a new group of Force...

    LZ vs. FNC game was beautiful.

    Rick and Morty

    Complaining about outliers of any group is always a sign of ignorance. The problem is when whole groups are raving lunatics. Case in point, anyone that actually wants the sauce can fucking type it into Google and find a few minute YouTube video on how to make it just right: Bonus, Binging...

    Horizon: Zero Dawn

    I just played through this over the past couple weeks (got a PS4 recently), and quite enjoyed it. I found the combat pretty fun throughout on the normal setting so IDK. I mostly used stealth for humans and a variety of tactics for robits. Ropecaster for when I got in over my head for sure...

    Middle-earth: Shadow of War (Shadow of Mordor Sequel)

    They're not in every AAA game though. Wolfenstein: TNC for example, no MTX at all as far as the eye can see and it's an eagerly awaited major AAA release. The ones they are in are generating noise because it's a shit deal for consumers and developers (I can almost guarantee you the developers of...

    Star Trek: Discovery

    That would be entirely too good. Based on everything everyone involved in the show has said in interviews I'd be surprised if they had ever heard of section 31 but maybe they played everyone.

    Rick and Morty

    Character development is kind of the plot advancement of the show, more or less. Season 1 and 2 both had very little time spent on any overall arc, the "big" story bits happened because of random character stuff over the other episodes that seemed to have nothing particular to do with anything...

    Transformers: The Last Knight (2017)

    I wanted this to be better but it was so bad. Not quite 2 bad but it tried really hard. It was all over the place (more so than usual for these movies which is saying something), basically everything made no sense, the entire plot line could have been interchanged with literally anything and you...

    Overwatch

    Not that they put out bad content or anything, but 100 people seems insane for what they DO put out. That's bigger than most in-development games have ever seen if you throw publisher teams and localization teams into the mix too, much less a released game that just is being updated and...

    Rick and Morty

    I already mentioned the cable ones are my least favorite episodes. I think for Season 3 specifically Episode 2 still was the weakest, to me. It wasn't bad, it just didn't do much or have many great lines compared to the rest. I haven't watched the video but I could understand disliking...

    The Snowman (2017)

    This is one of those movies I have to see just because of the cast being so outstanding. Trailer looks great too although thy didn't make it very... subtle. Kind of a mix between Seven and The Fall

    Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017)

    I have no stake in previous Spidy worlds as I never read any comics or really much cared for the character, but I actually really liked the weird Michelle-J in the movie :P Also the "diversity quota" I don't think I would have noticed if people here weren't talking about it. Like, they were just...

    Rick and Morty

    The episode started off pretty strong but the ending kinda just fell flat, especially compared to some of the ones we've had. Of all the times kinda lame stuff could be explained away by saying "it leads up to something" this actually felt the most like that, like the B-plot of the episode with...

    Annihilation (2018)

    Well it looks intriguing. And I thought Ex Machina was very good.

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    I'd be pretty happy if Star Wars keeps captain Lens Flare away from Star Trek permanently.

    Rick and Morty

    I find that less likely than C137 just isn't that Rick's original Morty, one way or another, which I think was vaguely suggested as a possibility in one of the episodes early on. The Evil Morty thing is purely fan speculation and would involve the aforementioned time travel and a bunch of other...

    PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds

    Yea, the last official statement on loot months ago was that all spawn points are equal, it's just a matter of density. I don't know that that comment was even a dev though so who knows.
  35. Amzin

    Rick and Morty

    There's some vague suggestions that Morty might not be from C137 either but that's mostly fan theories for now. The "That wasn't time travel" line was the thing that made me laugh the hardest, they are nailing these end-of-the-show lines from Rick this season. The Voltron drone bit from toxic...

    Star Trek: Discovery

    DS9 and Voyager are both after TNG so this would need to be after DS9 at the earliest to follow up that timeline. Could do parallel to Voyager readily enough.

    Kingsman: The Golden Circle (2017)

    There's a pretty good chance, especially if you care about traveling, you're better off becoming a citizen of an EU country rather than staying with England. Also politics etc. but there's plenty of practical reasons to jump ship, there is no way England benefits from that whole thing and anyone...

    One handed android games

    I'm thinking it might be a bit late for Nulolan, but for other people looking for offline RPGs, kemco puts out some decent ones on the Play store, and more importantly if you like free, the Amazon app store. If you install Amazon Underground app, it looks like at least some of kemco's RPGs are...

    Kingsman: The Golden Circle (2017)

    That would fix some of the problems I had with it but not the big negatives that distract me from enjoying it as much as I could have. Gonna spoilers them here now that I've sat and thought about it another day: For my favorite action, probably the fight with the snow goons was it. I think it...

    Tomb Raider (2018)

    I don't think anyone that enjoyed the TR reboots even says the plot / story was good at any given point, it's pretty objectively bad. Trying to merge both of them seems like a questionable choice especially considering there's no fun game mechanics to excuse the poor writing to get you there.
