I thought Quantumania was fine. Though, that scene where they get sucked into the Quantum Realm is some of the worst CGI I've seen in Marvel and I don't usually complain about CGI. Also, the editing in the first third of the movie (especially the part about eating the goo) is baffling.

Doctor Strange 2 > Wakanda Forever > Shang Chi > Spider-Man 3 > Eternals > Thor 4 > Black Widow

Doctor Strange 2 is probably a top 5 MCU movie for me. Wakanda, Shang Chi, and Spider-Man are all relatively high. Eternals is mid. Thor 4 probably made me feel the worst because I was so hyped for it, but it probably has better individual moments than Black Widow, like the Gorr fight on the planet.

Incredible game. Both the base game and the DLC really stick the landing for the ending and theyre large reasons why I feel theyre both amazing games despite some initial shakiness.

I think someone mentioned the music and its honestly so good. The motif that plays throughout the game is an instant classic that gets stuck in your head. Theres some really great standalone tracks in the DLC too, like the river.

Hijiyama and Okino is my favorite ship in the game and one of my favorite ships in gaming. I wasn't really into their relationship for most of the game, but seeing the 2188 versions of each other being clearly in love with each other is really heartwarming and puts their previous relationship in a nice light.

Glad you got to finish the game! One day, I'll watch the entire game in chronological order and see how that experience will do. I have to do a 18 hour flight in a few weeks so that might be the best time to do that.

Outer Wilds vs Undertale is like a championship match for me lol

And FF7R was also in this 8pack? Jeeze

I really do love the horror aspects of Outer Wilds. It mixes so well with the curiosity and wonder of exploring the planets. While it's exciting to find new areas and discoveries, it also carries a sense of danger, isolation, and the unknown. Dark Bramble is just such a cool planet in general; I love that place.

Sekigaharas finale is pretty memorable.

Fuyusaka was actually the first story I finished, so its pretty interesting that its one of your last.

I thought the meta-chips and leveling up being referenced in the lore was really great.

And yeah, Shiba post-reveal really makes Juro's arc. It's a good one! Izumi's a contender for my favorite character in the game.

I really enjoyed BOTW and the extra additions are all good to see. The only thing that gives me pause is that I want actual dungeons or, at the very least, an upgrade to shrines to make them more like mini-dungeons.

Megumi is the weakest story by a fairly significant margin.

Super Mario 64 is not enjoyable

Damn, a ton of good games this Gen.

I like condiments and toppings on other things! Just not hot dogs.

Flavored beverages are nice once in a while, but I dont drink it nearly as often as water. I dont enjoy it as much as water either. Water just tastes good too, especially cold water.

I like my hot dogs without condiments on it.

Water is the best-tasting beverage by a significant margin.

Yes

To be fair, I think you're focusing on some of the higher quality stories! I really enjoy the Ida side-section. I think Amaguchi was the last "normal" story I finished, so it's interesting that he was one of the first ones you finished.

Kisaragi is a really enjoyable character. Probably my 3rd favorite character, right behind Minami and Miura.

I think there's a big difference between 3-4 and 5-4! I do think B8 loves 3-4 more than they should. It's a good case, but not top 15.

Eh, I'm a little low on DD. I think it's a fine game, but I have it in the lower half of AA games. 5-1 is whatever, 5-2 is a good introduction to Blackquill but that's it, 5-3 is really good and really bad at the same time, 5-4 is alright but not really a case, and 5-5 is good but not so great as a climax. 5-6 is excellent, though.

Klavier is not a good character. They give him 4-3 and 4-4 to have a personal connection in both cases and, both times, he doesn't seem particularly affected in any strong way. He doesn't really have any memorable moments other than having relatively good court animations.

I like all 3 of the main Future trio in the DR3 anime. Kyosuke is likable in a dumb way, Chisa is likable in the Despair arc, and Juzo is likable all around.

I enjoy the mini games throughout DR. Admittedly, I watched DR1 and DR2 but I liked them in V3!

DR1: Kiyotaka is basically wasted as a character

DR2: Chiaki isnt interesting until Case 5.

DR3 Anime: Its not that bad. Its at least enjoyable for the new characters.

DRV3: Case 6 is just boring all around.

Japanifornia is a great localization choice, especially so for its time period.

Not sure if this is a hot take, but I see a lot of people mocking Ace Attorneys localization in a disparaging way these days.

Karla being drafted alongside Bartre's fine with me!

Only saw Boyhood, Roma, and All Quiet. Definitely a weaker set than the winners. Boyhood is my favorite but a lot of that is due to the production of the movie.

I think I would really hate being on Milf Manor. You're either a MILF, a son who has to see their mom hitting on other sons, or staff.

Whose Line Is It Anyways? is a good general band name, but not that good for a metal band.

Dissidia's way of how they utilize different playstyles, flavored by references from their original game makes it my favorite crossover fighter/action game by a longshot.

The makeovers of all the older FF characters in Dissidia is great and helps personalize each of the somewhat similar heroes and villains.

There's nothing wrong with FFV's story.
