General Gaming New game From Dennis Dyack
Mercury33 replied to skillzdadirecta's topic in The Spawn Point
I mean everything about that sounds cool...till I get to Free to Play and then my interest dropped to -5000% -
Lol and therein lies the problem with video game reviewers. When’s the last mega AAA title that got got a shit review and ended up being way under expectations? As long as the game is simply good, reviewers will give bonus points based on hype so they don’t get blasted by the internet hordes or simply the studio paid them for a good review(looking at you IGN). Normally I think the underwhelming trailers and review embargo until release day would be take as red flags. But given the hype and the reputation of the original it’s getting a pass. Not saying the game will be bad or anything short of great. Just kind of interesting how this stuff all plays out.

Character names and specific scenes are not the plot. And when I say people can remember the plot I don’t mean they can describe every scene in detail. I think most people can give the basic plot, the basic story points of good movies they liked. Most of the stuff you mentioned falls more into “film geek/film officiando” territory. Totally different. And yes that arguemnt very much was about people not being smart enough and not caring enough to follow the plot/make predictions off a plot.

I understand this sentiment from people. But for me nothing will ever replace the theater experience. But I tend to see movies on weekday nights or early weekend afternoons so I almost never see a movie in a theater more than half full. And with most theaters moving to these luxury recliner seats you’re getting further and further from other people. The days of battling with the asshole behind you who keeps kicking your seat are the dick in front who keeps leaning back to far are over. I do still enjoy full theaters for big franchise opening nights like Star Wars because that’s always an experience in and of itself.

Books What Are You Reading or Listening To?
Mercury33 replied to rc0101's topic in The Performing Arts Centre
I will say, being only 2 1/4 books into the series i can now fully appreciate how utterly terrible the movie was. I mean if Starz can make an absolutely bat shit crazy book like American Gods into a show I don’t see why The Dark Tower(or The Stand for that matter) isn’t already in production.
