    Ozark

    Theres limits on how much one can take Wendy and Darlene trying to out crazy bitch each other. And Wendy trying to turn Charlotte into another one.

    vampire survivors

    its very atari/arcade like. too long of a single run would hurt the game design. Deeper upgrades, and powerups would be cool. but, even then, I wouldn't really extend the game period much. I'd ramp up the difficultly within that 30 min faster. like, you mentioned playing it once, and being...

    Game Pass for Xbox and PC

    yep. and, certainly have "saved" more money with it, then without. A ton of indie stuff, I was curious about but not enough to fork out cash for. but then some big name stuff too. Both gives access to hidden gems, I wouldn't have spent money on. and, let me avoid wasting money on...

    thats not new news. Wanting to move away from eth 2.0 as a name has been a thing since before last year.

    vampire survivors

    came across this one a few weeks ago via youtubers. $3 indie. Early access. was holding off mentioning it due to EA. and when released some questions on the arguably stolen art. haha. the sprites were taken from a free library apparently. used by another project. and certainly...

    Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (2001)

    theres something to say about this. its probably true. The shift from fun, quirky and magical, to dour, depressing, and oppressive is real. and does do a good job with growing up like that... however, it needed to return to that fun, and it didn't really do that. theres plenty of anime...

    Ahsoka

    thats Clone wars, teenage Ahsoka. This is adult "rebels" Ashoka. not sure if they had an actress in mind when they made this version of her. very likely did.

    Yesterday (2019)

    misleading trailers is an interesting issue. If a trailer shows someone you want to see in the movie... and then, they are not in the movie. there is grounds for getting your money back. so, seems silly at first, but actually makes sense. Imagine some movie advertised itself for having Tom...

    Archive 81

    yeah, I feel like I was trying so hard to say this is just occult, ghost story, time bending/physics, demonic, dreaming, witchcraft, etc, etc... but, all those things don't make it Lovecraftian... to just say, ok. Lovecraftian applies just fine. and is probably more that then most other things.

    Im not certain I would say that really. there is suspence, intrigue, and mystery. lies.. cults, super suspect secret company, etc. so far nothing overt at all. yes. true detective s1 does come to mind. so yeah, that almost noir investigation into something wrong feeling is there for sure...

    yeah, started this this morning. very slow burn. Very intriguing.

    DOTA: Dragon's Blood

    yeah, this plays out as a grand adventure. the one thing that would be required to elevate it, is to slow down and spend more time with the characters. make it more personal. its not devoid of that... but, its also not Arcane nor Avatar the last Airbender. Selemene and Invoker are...

    DOTA: Dragon's Blood

    season finale is no joke. named characters die. Solid adventure up to that point. Might have to stew on it a bit. but, first impressions are quite high I'd say. brings in Rylai, pangolier and Lina as game characters. Vanari and Auroth are new I think. Fymryn's life is suffering and...

    Arcane

    I feel that too on some level. But I wonder what parts of this will get homaged? does any of it really stand out as iconic in the same way as the motorcycles, or destruction of Tokyo?

    Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (2001)

    Witches existing in media, is not the same as the counter cultures that formed, during the 80's and 90s. I mean, fuck, I think we'd be all ok with some Wiccans, if they were all trad wife hedgewitches. Bewitched did have its impact though. Bewitched, Sabrina and Wendy the Good little witch...

    Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (2001)

    yeah, Wicca, and "witches" have had a major resurgence. Feminism was a big part of it. mysticism, holistic, and astrology... Harry potter is not the cause, but "gateway drug" is fair. But, right along those lines.. The craft 1996. Buffy the vampire slayer 1997. (1992) HP books started in...

    The Legend of Vox Machina

    yeah, I bailed on exandria unlimited after a few. I thought the guest actors were all fine. but Aabria was a terrible GM. she was 100% rule of cool, no rules, "sounds fun, I'll allow it". was just pure chaos. didn't do a good job setting up any plot hooks up early. the players were kindof...

    The Legend of Vox Machina

    its not that I don't like Liam really. vax was too much... he was a drag. Caled was fine 90% of the time. I knew I was forgetting someone. laura. ha. shes one of my favorites. I think she has good range with her characters.

    The Legend of Vox Machina

    its enjoyable for a few reasons. one, they stay in character. so it really plays out like a radio play. As opposed to most regular dnd groups that drop character and spend 20 minutes discussing how to do a fight, or whatever, in the 2 seconds before a fight, or what every player should do...

    The Legend of Vox Machina

    yeah. they are all pros. so, while doing it live, they were constantly dropping character, etc.. makes sense for them to get in character and be more refined, for this. But seems a bit over done honestly. Wonder how the script handles Ashley constantly leaving. or, do they just have her...

    Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (2001)

    i'm older. my teenage book reading days, were King, Barker, Tolkien, a few sword and sorcery stuff (oddly, not big names.), etc but yeah, I never really understood the harry potter success. its so childish. I can respect the movies for how well made they are. special effects, direction...

    any day now! we did finally break through the 200 day moving average for eth. it had been going up steadily. 3400 is the current. if it keeps going, thats certainly really bad news, but 200 day could also really be a turnaround point. what are people thinking about eth2.o in the first...

    Kenshi - A Sandbox RPG

    roofs count as inside for the purposes of any "inside only" building, such as storage, weapon crafting etc. can put them all up there fine. if you are asking about acid rain, then yeah, I think they would get hit, so you'd need to put a tent over it. which you can do. most inns do that.

    Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord

    its more action oriented then the tactical you are suggesting. you can't loadout your army with gear or anything. higher teir units are better then lesser, but trying to rock paper scissors with special troop types, doesn't mean much either. especially if you are not personally organizing...

    Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord

    theres a bunch of options for this. 1. you can join another kingdom. and let them command anyway. when in an army, you'll be in charge of a formation. 2. when commanding yourself. you have lots of tools for telling infantry, archers, etc. each what to do. formations, charge, advance, hold...

    Wheel of Time

    phisey gave you a downvote... while he LOVES Arcane. which did just that. invented new characters for the show. some of which are primary characters. completely changed others. Vi's amnesia is totally gone. what was a core part of her character, and conflict.

    Don't Look Up (2021)

    I'm not sure who the big tech guy was really supposed to be. all of them? stage presence, personality, etc was all Jobs. but weird to parody jobs after hes gone. elon, branson, and bezos all are involved in space travel. do note, this was made pre-covid. before the left decided they...

    The Witcher

    Final verdict, I would give it a 10/10 on production. 6/10 on story. In the end, its fun to watch, and look at. but, I don't really give a shit about any of the characters really. the writing is way too inconsistent.
