It's usually not great, but it's tolerable if it's done very sparingly or in an interesting way, imo.

Oh, so that is how they do it? That is almost as bad as splitting movies (like harry potter) into multiple parts so they can charge you twice. Will we end up with 13 Reasons: Season 5 one day?

I haven't read the book/books? so I'm not sure they're splitting it up, but it starts a whole new thing instead of simply wrapping up the suicide case

Apparently they are making a second season. How the fuck do you make a second season of a show like this? Does she come back to life so that she can kill herself again? wtf?

When I watched the last episode I couldn't believe they decided to end it on a cliffhanger; the fact that they're dragging it out for at least another season leaves a really bad taste in my mouth, even if it is fictitious.

This so much. I've only caught bits of the show from when my girlfriend was watching it, but the scene in question was my introduction. It's one of the most graphic, gratuitous, outright disgusting things I've ever seen. It's literally like 5 minutes of blood, gaping vaginas, and c-sections.

This. Fine art/sculpture in particular is extremely subjective. Most of the time having a recognizable name is MUCH more important than the quality of the work itself.

Plenty of movies already do this. For a recent example, The Handmaiden does this quite well.

Really? I've never heard of a movie doing this tbh. Can you give a few more examples? I'd like to check some out.

Rashomon is probably the most famous example (and possibly the best), but here are a few more fairly recent examples of it being used.

Run Lola Run
The Blackcoat's Daughter
Gone Girl
Predestination
Memento
Chungking Express (This isn't quite the same, but it's more two stories that mesh together and overlap in certain areas)
The Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby (Haven't seen this one personally, so I can't say if it's good or not)

Not sure if they want you to purchase something with it or if they'll just give it to you.

I used to work at a Panera a few years back, and I can't imagine them not letting you do it since part of their whole thing is about breaking rules for the customer. (If there even would be a rule to buy something too)

I don't understand this

I don't enjoy wasting my time traveling around a monstrous world just to get to my next objective. If there's no fast travel, that's outright unplayable in my eyes. Even in a Metroidvania style game where the world isn't ever THAT big, a lack of fast travel options would severely hamper my enjoyment.

In Morrowind there was boats, silth strider, Mage portal at each of the Mage Guild places. As well as a teleportation spell/scroll for the Dunmer temple and Imperial Temple. It felt like you were actually navigating the world in an organic way, not this instant teleportation to everywhere.

This ensures I will absolutely never play this game.

It's also a pretty good film, although it made some odd decisions and the creators decided to engender controversy with a last-minute twist involving the friend's older brother which, in all honesty, didn't make much sense because you'd think they'd already know that. Plus they're pretty heavy-handed with the film's themes.

I disagree with all of this, because in reality it's a just single line, but I'm sure it still offended plenty of over-protective parents and ultra right wing conservatives all the same.
