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...

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...

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.

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.

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...

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...

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...

The drawing after 30 hours, probably.

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.

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.

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...

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...

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...

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.
