    Saints Row 5

    The thing that fundamentally separated saints row from all the chaff wasn't the goofy nature of it all, though that obviously helped. It was the characters driving around singing to the radio. It remains one of the only series where I FULLY believe that those characters just adored each other...

    Saints Row 5

    I think SR3 was the pinnacle of the series. 4 was great as long as you look at it as not it's own game, but as an extension of 3. I absolutely loved how little it took it self seriously.

    Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021)

    Can someone clue me into why strange doesn't have the infinity stone anymore? Wasn't there a big plot point in endgame about returning the stones directly after they were taken? Didn't cap go on a time traveling adventure to do just that? Why is everyone saying that the stones no longer exist?

    Saints Row 5

    The whole problem with this is that they just went on record as saying that the saints row games were great and fun but you can't make those kinds of games anymore. The ONLY way to take that is that they've sold out to the woke crowd.

    Pathfinder: Kingmaker

    That remains my biggest complaint about kingmaker. I'm very experienced with dnd, and a played a bunch of 3.5, which is what Pathfinder is based off, bit I never played any pathfinder before this. I would have LOVED some in game player's handbook. Even if it was a truncated version of it. I...

    What If...?

    The evidence is circumstantial... Steve Rogers wasn't sidelined at all in the first episode. The woke crowd dictates that you have to bury white males, which is not at all what happened with Rogers. counterpoint: what made Rogers the ideal candidate was his unparalleled character and we've...

    The D&D thread

    we just started doing something sort of similar... we're still tweaking it but it's basically that we have an amount of points equal to our con+lvl (so it's relatively low, but does progress) and certain things cost those points like death saves, being crit, setting off a trap, etc and you get 1...

    The D&D thread

    my regular group has been playing 5e for something like 6 years now? we just finished our 2nd lvl 1-20 campaign and the dm has complained a lot about this exact issue. we've been sort of experimenting with trying to increase that anxiety but honestly from my perspective they've all missed the...

    Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021)

    i don't know why people keep bringing up that phrase... it's definitely not any kind of reference to any story from comics. I'D REMEMBER

    Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021)

    yeah, there's plenty of reasons to go back to just regular spandex. spider-man works better with low-tech gadgets... or rather... brilliant gadgets that are basically just cobbled together with duct tape... the dynamic between him and stark is interesting, but at this point, peter needs to...

    Star Wars: Visions

    yeah, i wouldn't be surprised if they purposefully launched disney+ without any original content knowing it wouldn't compete AT ALL with netflix, so that when they started releasing the disney+ shows someone could point to a graph and show shareholders how much better they are doing.

    The D&D thread

    honestly, i think this is the only way to do it. give them the illusion of an open world but only prepare for an on-rails game. i hate random encounters for this very reason. if you go through the work of preparing an encounter, don't let that go to waste, you know?

    The Suicide Squad (2021)

    I think the mcu came at the perfect time. It was sort of a spectacle in motion. But people have seen that now and I think people are burned out on the kind of commitment that a cinematic universe brings. I think it's one thing to make a movie and a sequel or two, it's another thing to tell...

    Brooklyn Nine-Nine

    when terry got profiled for being black, crews said that happened to him in real life and he said it was important to him for it to be in the show. Stephanie Beatriz is bi in real life and said it was important to her to explore that dynamic in the show. i'm not particularly interested in...

    The Suicide Squad (2021)

    i think that's what he meant by making good movies instead of focusing on some "plan." you can plan all the cinematic universes you want, but if you don't make movies that people want to see, it doesn't matter. when marvel made Ironman, they obviously had a plan, but the reason the plan worked...

    Avengers: Endgame (2019)

    It's because all those people who said he was always worthy, said it in retrospect. And so it begs the question, "why didn't he lift it earlier?" Personally, I think cap was always worthy, but mcu Steve rogers is a different character than comic Steve Rogers.

    Avengers: Endgame (2019)

    If we're talking about what cap would or wouldn't do, he'd never TRY to pick up the hammer in that kind of setting. It was a silly little scene where the avengers are screwing around and having a couple drinks. All it was meant to do was foreshadow that nga down the road and that's it...

    Avengers: Endgame (2019)

    Also let's assume that Thor's ego is so frail that cap picking up mjolnir would hurt his feelings. Wouldn't that make Thor UNworthy?

    Avengers: Endgame (2019)

    whedon is a douchebag and i don't care what he says. i hate directors who try to explain AFTER the fact what was happening in their movies. either explain it in the movie, or don't explain it at all. the only thing we KNOW is that cap DIDN'T lift mjolnir until endgame. we can make all kinds of...

    Avengers: Endgame (2019)

    there's also precedence in the comics that arrogance and self-centeredness in and of itself doesn't make someone "unworthy" because that's just how thor is. a huge piece of being worthy is BELIEVING you're worthy which is a completely arrogant thought in the first place. as soon as thor believes...

    The Suicide Squad (2021)

    the only thing that makes sense for harley is that she's sort of like dc's deadpool behavior wise. make her know that she's just a comic book/cartoon character and run with it. she already has the acme powers of pulling giant mallets out of nowhere.

    Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy from Square Enix (Eidos)

    If you license the mcu faces, then it's an mcu game. I'm sure they would handcuff you creatively in what you can do, what stories to tell, and what characters you can have. This allows them to tell whatever story they want, more or less. That doesn't necessarily make it a good thing, just that...

    The Suicide Squad (2021)

    because james gunn did both GotG movies, i don't think it's unreasonable to expect something of that caliber. but really the main issue is the dialogue being pretty low quality. the middle of the movie drags specifically because of the dialogue. there's very little going on EXCEPT dialogue and...
