  1. Yes they were because they had to be. The Country as a whole was just smarter, less distracted by bullshit and more engaged. You only had, what four or five channels back then? You HAD to be engaged in a way that just isn't the same anymore.
  2. Jesus... Somebody want to explain to me how The President of The United States is getting recorded without his knowledge by a goddamned I-phone?!
  3. Is Knights of The Old Republic free to play? I may check it out after I'm done with KOTOR 2.
  4. I haven't seen Book Smart or the other one... Good Guys I think its called? Yeah it's spreading big time... currently Tyler Perry's latest Netflix movie is getting SHREDDED on black twitter. I mean the movie is bad, but I think the best things that filmmakers can do is essentially make their films in a vacuum because trying to please fans is a losing proposition. It's like hitting a moving target that you can barely see. I don't think this will become a HUGE problem in the industry and its also not completely without precedent... Studios do test screenings and focus groups all of the time and rework films based on that feedback fairly regularly. But if the internet mob starts to get and oversized voice regarding creative filmmaking decisions it will just further erode what makes cinema special in the first place.
  5. Of course I've played KOTOR and I'm currently playing the second one now. I even acknowledged in my response that I may have misunderstood what you meant, because your initial post implied two things: ONE, that you consider the original KOTOR to be a turn based game and TWO that, if the next game doesn't play like that, then it's simply an action game like Fallen Order. I acknowledged that I may have misunderstood what you meant, you clarified and even continued to clarify with this post... cool. No need to question whether or not I've actually played the game that I'm actually posting about. I always thought of this style being referred to as "Active Time Battle" or something like that which is the phrase that the developers of Grandia came up with at the time, I think. I never regarded KOTOR or DA:O as being turn based games but whatever. It's why, again, I acknowledged that i may have misunderstood something in his post.
  6. This is a bad precedent in my opinion Be forewarned... this is an IGN article so if you're too good for IGN, ignore the post and do not click the link.
  7. I don't know what that is. There is no "good type of whack". Whack is whack.
  8. I'm gonna give this show a shot and if its whack there will be HELL to pay on these boards.
  9. Absolutely nothing. As Wade said, for me this whole affair just exposes the sham of a system we have in this country.
  10. That's why that standard and sentiment is such bullshit. You say the President can only be impeached if he commits a crime, but then argue that if The President does something illegal, it's not a crime. So basically what folks who argue this are saying is that The President is above the law. Which makes him a Dictator... or a King. THIS President is unlawful, incompetent, immoral, petty and possibly demented. But NOPE... not impeachable
  11. Wasn't it ruled that Trump withholding the funds from the Ukraine was illegal which makes it a crime? Not to mention his repeated obstruction. And is there any questions that Trump is corrupt and fundamentally unfit for the office he holds in temperament and knowledge of the office.
  12. The implication in your statement was "Make it a Fallen Order/Action Game" in response to me saying I didn't want it to be turn based, which says to me that if it wasn't turn based then it should just be an action game. If I misunderstood you, my bad. All of these would be good especially DA:O. The main thing I would want would be companions and the ability to build out different character builds for sure.
  13. Yes please... KOTOT 2 is currently in my gaming queue right now so I am most interested in this news. Most interested indeed.
  14. There's what, 18 years between Sith and A New Hope? Obi Wan watching over and protecting Luke while staying off of the Empire's radar is RIFE with story possibilities. The did a story in the Star Wars comic for a couple of issues showing Obi Wan in exile and those stories were intriguing and illustrated to me where a potential Obi Wan spinoff movie could go. It's really this simple. Make good stories that people like and folks will come to the movies. The asterix with Star Wars is that there is a vocal minority on the internet that muddies the waters and will always have a problem with the newer Star Wars films because an "ick! Girl is in charge!"
