    The Wire: Greatest Show Ever Made

    it's so sad to see the immense TDS of David Simon, how he defended the same kind of crooked baltimore politicians his show condemned just because of orange man bad really shows he didn't really believe his own message. S5 is the most topical today, because it shows how fake news is made and...

    Bosch

    yep, s6 is more of the same, pretty decent show, although starting to show some decline. it's gotten a bit stale since the resolution of bosch's mother story, with filler stuff becoming more noticeable. also what's up with the sudden turn to "The Wire" with this season?

    it was more that he was becoming a dev for Blizzard with the help of Tigole when WoW was starting up, so he had to lay low on the guild leading, and slowly phased out.

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    The remake was a mistake. Watch how AeriS won't die, Wedge will end up the hero and Zack was Cloud all along. Edit: Nomura and his "fate spirits", goddamn.

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    I'd say Baldur's Gate is defined as the Bhaalspawn saga following the Time of Troubles. It's the same kind of rot as we see nowdays in TV-series, movies: resurrecting and making sequels "in name only" of franchises that should remain dead, in order to cannibalize their their remains and use...

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    Saying Baldur's Gate is too chaotic or "having to mash the spacebar" is somehow preferable to having to spend 20 minutes fighting a gang of trash-mobs like kobolds, watching a time-block devoted to each single attack in some un-immersive and unrealistic "order of combat", instead of sweeping...

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    aside from the annoyance of Larian cheaply making a dnd-based mod for divinity, I am happy to have climbing/flying and similar features in a DnD game. Also they seem to include a solid amount of races and classes and archetypes even at early-access. also, it seems they are including some...

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    nah, it's far more fluent and individualized compared to the clunky turn-based system which was developed 100s of years ago to break fights down into un-realistic time-chunks that add up to a boring mind-numbing slog. it's a travesty that they did this to a series famous for its innovative...

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    Feels more like dragon age tham divinity to me, especially those close ups. Hope they keep pause and play combat.

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    Yep, the publish or perish mantra, and the disdain for negative results, is one of the main issues behind this. Also that reviewing papers is extracurricular work, you don't get paid, and you have to do it a lot before you can get into a nice role on an editor board for a journal or similar...

    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    yeah, no the prequels were still far better and more in line with the star wars universe than these post-2010 movies.

    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    I havent watched any sw movie since the force awakens. For me, Star wars is the first six movies, its dead now. Another franchise hollowed out and sacrificed on the sjw altar for money.

    The Fermi Paradox -- Where is everybody?

    I wonder if that may be the underlying schism between two ideologies about the future of humankind. One (globalist) trying to "power down" humanity for resources to last longer, and potentially get off the planet in the far future. The other ideology that has now sprung up saying screw that...

    The Fermi Paradox -- Where is everybody?

    or in the end of Time by Stephen Baxter, humanity turns out to be the only space faring organism and quickly conquer the universe. but as the heat death settles in, and black holes begin to be used up as energy sources, they create a essentially lossless computational substrate. however, as...

    Cube World

    so no character levels, no progression, no procedural content. it's basically an sandbox exploration game, like knytt stories. how disappointing.

    Carnival Row

    pretty sjw, especially in the beginning, they do get in some counter-punches to sjwism later in the show too. like how the rich puck is like "i'm sure immigrants driving down wages for citizens is not helping the situation" and later "hey where I come from no one gives a shit about diversity".
