I don't think they're done with the Tusken story. I mean, his time with the tribe is, obviously, but when Boba went to talk with the Pykes they said they had dealings with the Nikto bikers and the biker gang is, apparently, behind the destruction of the Tusken camp. It's rather obvious the...

If you don't count someone CGI'ing the dog out of the picture.

I'd argue the lackluster writing is probably related to its huge success, it was a lot more accessible to the plebs than other fantasy series. It got zillions of kids and people who never read anything to suddenly read 500-page books over a few days. They even named a medical condition after it...

At the risk of repeating myself, the Marco Inaros arc almost killed my interest the book series, so I'm not surprised to see it killing interest in the TV show as well, it's slow and boring, packed to the brim with drama mostly about people few viewers like or care about, and takes you away from...

FTFY. I mean it's HBO, they know their audience.

I'm not even convinced he's still trying to get it finished. I think when the ending of the TV series was heavily criticized, he realized even if he somehow did drag his fat ass from the couch watching football to his writing chair, he'd still have a bunch of unhappy readers, since a lot of...

I'm (sadly) almost finished with the Republic Commando book series by Karen Traviss and it's very enjoyable. The first book is what I expected from a series named like that but then it goes into an unexpected direction and gets even better. I highly recommend them.

This thread may provide solutions.

Jeff Bezos, probably.

If you're talking about the fight with Kingpin, it looked like he was pulling his punches against her, mostly throwing her or shoving her away, he was even smiling several times because he found it cute/amusing that this girl is trying to hurt him. And then he exploded.

Speaking of dumbass assumptions.

And it was the same in Darksiders too, there were pathways floating in the wind with octogonal tiles and pillars.. and probably in several other games I haven't played. It's not like anything is original in this day and age. I get the complaints about the cast being a bunch of ugly browns and...

Or it could be Link's Awakening. It's not really new but it's good.

Both games are much more challenging when you're attempting ghost runs (no kills, not seen by anyone). It's also fun, but killing people is fun too, so your milage may vary.

The prologue of the first episode of season 6 and the trailers showing a glimpse of a Laconian dreadnaught hint that they intend to somehow go beyond the Inaros arc, otherwise it'd be a really odd decision to include this stuff in an already short season it has no relevance with.

Honestly, even in the books where you could will yourself to imagine Naomi looking like Zoe fuckin Saldana, the books centered around her whiny ass, her psychopath ex and their dumbass son were a huge drag on the franchise as a whole. I'm not sure hot casting woud have helped all that much.

Y'all clearly aren't showrunner material. They're playing the long game, she was cast for a specific scene in season 4 where she has to chomp through her a'dam to break free and seize control of the Seanchan Throne (overthrowing Jussie Smolett as Tuon).

Not to defend garbage writing when it's there, but I'm pretty sure that scene in particular was meant to demonstrate the prejudice people (and especially Nynaeve) have towards Aes Sedai and the White Tower in general. Most folks have no idea how it works or how it's organized other than "them...

Right, I'm just saying these small story points aren't worth 2 books or 2 seasons of the show. It could have been explained in a much shorter way and without dragging us through Naomi's family issues.

Without spoiling it for the people who have yet to read the books, it's safe to say you could remove almost everything that happened in the Inaros arc and still have the same basic story in the final book. The only things that really happened during his arc are the unification of the Belters...

I've not watched this new episode yet, but I have a feeling releasing the last novel around the same time as the new season is going to backfire. I mean, it raises interest, but it also juxtaposes arguably the worst story arc of the franchise (Marco Inaros and Naomi's family shenanigans) with...

I liked it. I was wondering how they'd end the series and the conclusion was satisfying for the most part.

Wasn't replying to you. Bro. I've seen that KKK hat controversy, it's silly but if I have to choose I'd rather people crusade against pointy KKK hats than turn women paintings into bowls of fruits. Small victories and all.

It's fake. But it speaks volumes about the quality of the modern lore that it could pass as real.

No, the Demon Hunter starting zone is Mardum, a barren world that Sargeras used as a prison for demons early in his mission to purify the universe. Later when he was corrupted he shattered the planet to release the demons to start his crusade. Nathreza's destruction is detailed in the book...

They should have this music on the Shadowlands login screen.

Not sure why I bother, but Eredar were already space goats as far back as Warcraft III... they had horns, hooves, and we went to another planet to fight them. So they've been in the story since 2002 when Warcraft III came out. The only retcon they did in Burning Crusade was reveal the Broken on...

While your idea would of course be better than whatever random thing Danuser throws darts at, they already exploded the Dreadlord homeworld (Nathreza) in Legion prologue stories. Illidan invaded their homeworld with his Illdari, stole the Sargerite Keystone and used it to open portals all over...

I concur that picking an Azerothian to become the new Arbiter wouldn't be a good idea because most of the stories around Shadowlands already revolve around Azerothian characters and I agree that Azeroth is already too much in the universal focus (even if it's understandable for a story to...

In Hollywood speak that just means he wants more money.

To be fair, Blizzard hasn't provided this much entertainment in years. And it's mostly thanks to Bobby.

Hilariously so. Give it a try.

The game only begins once you beat Hades though. There's a TON of options and story you'll miss out on if you stop after beating him just the one time. You need at least ten wins to get the first ending, and more than that for the true ending.

I found the spear to be decent, I prefer it to the fists or the gun for instance. However the shield is the best weapon for me, I tend to pick Poseidon boons that give the shield watery shockwaves and super damage when enemies are bounced into walls or barriers (and if possible I also pick that...

Huge cast, pretty hyped director, and heavy marketing helps I'm guessing.

Bitch looks like mid-transition Hawkeye.

Same as the books, in my opinion, so I'm not sure how much the blame lies on Amazon there. The early books with all the protomolecule stuff was incredible, then it becomes a slog to read through the stupid ass Marco chapters, and then it gets good again with the Laconia stuff. Unfortunately the...

For your first story point : The second : The third :

You bring up valid points and are entitled to your opinion, but you can absolutely backtrack to every single room in the game. Maybe not immediately after missing out on the obvious blinking upgrade that you skipped, but before the end area I was able to scour 100% of the map for the last...
