Thanks. Im in the same boat. I really want the LotT 4K. I wasn’t a huge fan of the Hobbit movies but I didn’t hate them. So I wouldn’t mind skipping them. But IF Jackson reworks them and the CGI in some way. Then I’d def wait to see how that turns out to get the full 6 movie collection.

BOOOOOOOOOOO

I’m running 3-1 tonight. Interested to see what you mean haha

This. I can almost guarantee that a priority was not made out of matching move for move a cartoon character.

Yeah def took me a bit to realize I wasn’t supposed to just keep going in each world, that you need to bounce around. So that’s an interesting twist. Trying to figure out where to go next when it’s more than just “go towards A or go towards B”

Oh I wasn’t taking a shot at her. I like her. I was just saying as the person who achieved the most main stream success of anyone on the that channel. She could have easily just gone the route of pretending she didn’t get her start on some nerdy talk show for gamers. Kinda like some actors don’t like to acknowledge the early terrible horror movies they were in. I was appreciating she didn’t and makes me like her even more.

Kind of a dumb thing but it was nice to see Olivia there and that she didn’t think she had become “too big” for it. G4 was one of those things I def took for granted and missed greatly when it was gone. Easily my favorite time of year was their E3 coverage. To have a channel that was showing nothing but video game trailers and interviews for 3 days straight was amazing.

Wife and I binged 8 episodes immediately after Mandolorian. First 6 episodes we were like “ok I get why people like this. It’s a really well made kids show.” Then we hit that two parter in the middle of the season 😳 that was our “OH SHIT now we get the hype” moment.

Whelp this latest episode finally pushed me over the edge. 5 episodes into Rebels

That’s exactly what I thought. The samurai influence was fantastic. I love those straight line duels. Also I watched it a second time. There are sparks that fly up every time she hits a trooper with a saber. So saying nothing happens to acknowledge the hit seems a bit much.

Yeah that’s it. Smh stupid giant fire things

Lol no, it doesn’t. It only would stick out to people who are desperately looking for it to be there. You must have been super pissed when Vader took down Obi Wan and he just disappeared instead of his entrails falling out all over the floor. And to think this was a C level episode based on just the episode structure alone? 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Jesus we’re back to the “why aren’t there Dead Alive levels of gore and dismemberment during lightsaber battles DiSnEy SuCkS” thing again.

This tunnel of bones place can suck a dick. I’m so lost 😂

He’s not saying it’s not an issue. He’s just addressing that you pretty strongly accused Nintendo of willingly being supportive of and using slave labor. He was just pointing out that none of the stuff you posted really confirms that allegation. Im not trying to jump on either side. I’m sure Nintendo, like most huge companies, does some shitty stuff both knowingly and unknowingly.

In what way? I played for 3 hours last night and didn’t notice anything different except the occasional tearing is gone

One of the first things I noticed was the snow sticking to Eivors boots and the bottom of his cloak. Then when you go someplace warm it melts and only those places that had snow look wet. Pretty cool.

The show is great. The problem is that Star Wars fans Inherently want to destroy everything they love. It’s in their nature. Because they build up everything to be so big snd so grand (something Star Wars NEVER was) in their head. That they then rip apart and destroy anything that doesn’t live up to the storylines in their head that they jerk off to in their basements. I fully expect them to take Mandolorian down this path as well.

But it’s also a really well done an entertaining show. It’s possible to be both.

😂😂 James Woods must have had such a raging hard on while making that. Also, fuck trying to do a Rudy accent I’m speaking as is 😂😂

Yeah the movie is pretty funny with a few LOL moments. But honestly I think the show is WAY better.

Ahhh the pure elation of beating your first boss followed by the familiar terror of making it 45 min into the next area then dying before making it to the first shortcut 😔

I’m....kinda looking forward to this?

So what’s the weirdest side quests you guys have come upon so far? I had to help a kid clean crates of shit out of his house thag his dad was collecting. And if you stayed in the house too long you died 😂

Im about 13 hours in so the story really hasn’t opened up yet but... Eivor and his “brother” Sigurd have moved to England to start a new life. After killing the leader who was oppressing their clan back in Norway another leader came along and wanted to unite all the Danes under his banner. They weren’t interested in living under another ruler so they left to start their own settlement. Once there Sigurd leaves to seek out the Danes who had already landed in England and established a foothold. He wants to make nice with them so they don’t step on any toes basically. The underlying story is that during his travels Sigurd met two members of the Hidden Ones. This of course being the guild that Aya and Byak founded at the end of Origins. We’re in 897 so this order will transition to being known as the Assassins sometime over the next 2/300 years. They’ve tagged along for the ride because ever since the Romans retreated out of England 400ish years earlier their order has had almost zero presence in England. That has allowed the Ancient One, the group that will eventually pivot into being called the Templars, to gain massive footholds throughout the kingdoms. The two Assassins you’re traveling with have been tasked with eliminating the Ancient Ones from England. They approach Eivor about helping them with this task since it would be mutually beneficial to both parties for Eivor to take out the Ancient Ones. So at this point in the story you are helping to eliminate some low level targets for the Assassins as you work with your clan to create alliances to establish yourselves on the continent. Thats kind of it for the story so far, that I’ve gotten through. Not much of a story arc yet, just more of some basic motivations for what you’re doing. Although seeing as this is an AC game I’m sure that revenge will become a driving force at some point or another haha. If you want help with the modern story I’m gonna need a bunch more paragraphs lol
