    Metroid Dread

    We don't agree on everything about this game for sure, but I must admit that the incredible Ori games are a tough act to follow, even for the mother of the genre that is Samus. Metroid Dread is definitely more formulaic because it clings to its roots and Nintendo is generally attached to keeping...

    Metroid Dread

    I can confirm it works, but only if you use all the teleport platforms, back and forth, at least once. I got a prompt screen that said "All teleporters unlocked" or something and from then on you can just enter any teleport and when on the map screen you can select which platform to teleport to.

    Metroid Dread

    That's exactly what happens in the game. Once you have unlocked/used all the teleports, you can then teleport to any other teleport regardless of color/pairing. [EDIT] Nevermind, I see you meant teleport from anywhere, not just from platform to platform.. I don't think that's ever happened in a...

    Yeah it's a tough boss.

    Metroid Dread

    I finished the game today, and while I remember having a few sequences underwater before finding the gravity suit, none of them were too bothersome since you can use your stealth ability to sneak past every E.M.M.I., and the underwater sections all have little spaces where you can squeeze into...

    Metroid Dread

    I died twice to that boss, then I figured you basically just need to dodge the big purple balls it shoots at you and tank the multiple smaller missiles while spamming it with super missiles. After you destroy that form, it turns into another form that you can shoot to make it lose smaller things...

    Metroid Dread

    I got my Collector's Edition today, I'm about 1 hour or so in and so far I'm really enjoying it. I haven't played a lot of Metroid games (though I watched a ton of Let's Plays so I know them well), have only really played Metroid Prime and Samus Returns fully. The gameplay is a lot like Samus...

    Oooookay so that's gonna be on the wishlist on Nintendo Store waiting for a nice 50% or 75% off sale. Thanks folks!

    Is this anything like Hades? Cause it really looks like Hades and I really dig Hades.

    KOTOR Reboot

    For those that'd like to replay KOTOR on a recent system and with remastered graphics (not a remake), they just announced a remastered version on Switch. Considering the awful woke-as-fuck writer they hired for this upcoming remake, I have a feeling the old one is gonna be the better one.

    Aragami 2 (3rd person stealth/ass.)

    I quite enjoy stealth games, especially with ninjas but I'd somehow completely missed this game's announcement and the original game. I'd like to pick it up on Switch but it's not certain yet whether this one'll have a Switch release, the first one is on Switch however, with a regular version...

    What did you just read?

    Just read the John W. Campbell collection of science fiction novels, picked it up mostly for Who Goes There? that inspired The Thing, but the rest of the stories is also pretty good, and sometimes eerily on the nose about future events (such as Japan sending plane pilots into kamikaze bombing...

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    How easy was it to hack your PS Classic? Mine's been gathering dust, I basically only played Battle Arena Toshinden on it for huge nostalgia vibes, but I'm sure I'd play it more if I had a big library of retro games on it. Advice would be appreciated as I've never hacked any of those mini...

    Dune (2020)

    I assume watching white and brown people fuck each other's shit up is a fun spectacle for chinese people. This is however good news for those hoping to see a sequel to Dune, the extra revenue from this chinese release will probably convince the studio to greenlight the sequel.

    Dune (2020)

    I'm not sure there's a 3D version of it, but if you have a choice I'd go 2D as the visuals are amazing and in my experience 3D tends to make the image darker and a little blurrier, which would be a shame.

    Dune (2020)

    I'm just feeding a troll, but I don't really care for Zendaya either as an actress, she's a rather boring MJ in MCU Spidey movies in my opinion. But feel free to think I'm being a white knight because I don't have an aneurysm when I see brown actors and actresses cast as desert-dwelling tribesmen.

    Dune (2020)

    She appears regularly in visions, but I'd say her total screen time is under 10 minutes in a 155 minutes movie. I'm sure you'll survive.

    Dune (2020)

    Saw it today, in the theater. Very very enjoyable experience, the sound was amazing, the photography is amazing, but that's the usual for Villeneuve. I thought the movie was great, it took its time to develop characters properly and lets you enjoy the sheer huge scope of the universe it depicts...

    Metroid Dread

    The way I understand it, the Metroids on SR388 were more evolved because they existed a lot longer than in the other games where they're usually escapees from lab experiments or space pirate bioweapons on the loose, and were usually kept as harmless as possible specifically to prevent escapes...

    What If...?

    There's other ways in other universes, not in this one. In this one, the only way for him to be Sorcerer Supreme is to lose Christine in the car accident, that's why it cannot or should not be prevented. Supposedly in our universe his hands being severely damaged is a fixed point as well, and...

    What If...?

    What you're missing is the show's entire premise. In our universe she never died, but in this universe being explored in episode 4, her death not only happens but is a fixed point, it cannot possibly be stopped (and if you impossibly do it, game over). Every universe is going to have different...

    God of War: Ragnarok

    I'm just wondering if the people bitching here about Angrboda being brown were also frothing at the mouth with rage when they learned Heimdall would be played by Idris Elba. Other than that, this looks like a great game based on this trailer.

    Aliens: Fireteam

    The xenos being super numerous, charging straight at you, being bullet sponges and their blood not being acid just makes me even more disappointed that this game wasn't developped to take place in the Starship Troopers universe.

    Blizzard dies and Bobby rides

    As much as I despise Shadowlands for some of its terribly flawed ideas, they did bring back some elite areas in every zone, and the World Quests there require groups, but the problem is that it's all done through the faceless LFG tool and it's quick and done in 2 minutes without anyone speaking...

    Blizzard dies and Bobby rides

    In a way they had a better formula back in vanilla where some of the outside world had elite areas that required groups to be able to quest there. It made some of the world feel more dangerous and that was pretty cool I thought.

    Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings (2021)

    Apparently the main dude who plays Shang-Chi is also considered supremely ugly by China's standards, so I guess that's two for two. At least Michelle Yeoh is still pretty good-looking at her age.

    Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings (2021)

    You're just regurgitating your redpill dinner, that's not an explaination. Explain to me how your enjoyment about martial arts scenes, scenery, acting, humor is dependent on China's politics for this film or other films filmed with a release in China in mind?

    Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings (2021)

    Without going into spoilers, it's a self-contained story but the very end (mid-credits scene) brings in some information that will likely thicken the plot down the road.

    Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings (2021)

    And how is that related to you thinking Shang-Chi is a good movie or bad? Is a movie bad because it was made with/for China? Is it good because it was made AGAINST China's wishes? What the fuck does all this have to do with whether the movie was fun, entertaining, bad, etc?

    Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings (2021)

    I agree, it's a huge market. But this thread isn't talking about ticket sales hurting because of China's move, it's full-on going into entering war with China because of a bunch of reasons unrelated to this movie, and that shouldn't be discussed over entire pages in a thread dedicated to talking...

    I'm not blind to it, I just don't see what the fuck it's doing in the latest Marvel movie thread. There's a reason why the Politics forums was put behind doors, that shit should stay in there. As for that video, I believe it's the third time I see it in this thread, or maybe it's other movie...

    Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings (2021)

    It has nothing to do with the actual movie, only the perceived politics surrounding it. Y'all see everything through your goddamn redpilled prism and it's so pathetic. The Movie House is meant to be the place to talk about what you thought of the trailers at first and then the movies, not to...

    Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings (2021)

    Went and saw this tonight, it was a lot of fun. A mix of humor and action from MCU movies but not too much humor that it was jarring, and the action was great. Here's my non-spoilery thoughts : The martial arts scenes were nicely filmed and that's a change from the shaky-cam bullshit that's so...

    Wheel of Time

    Amazon has spent a billion dollars on Lord of the Rings, you can bet they're not going to allow anything to compete with it, especially if it underperforms (as this likely will). Releasing two heroic fantasy series around the same time on the same channel is one weird ass idea.
