Topic | If Star Trek Picard nails its last few episodes it'll be the best Trek since DS9 |
ColonizedMind 04/01/23 7:39:52 PM #20 | We're specifically talking about season 3. It has nothing to do with the first two seasons so. |
Topic | What do you think is with the phenomenon of haters taking over online spaces? |
ColonizedMind 04/01/23 7:05:27 PM #1 | Specifically subreddits for things that are disappointments, bad or otherwise letdowns for whatever reason. Like I get it a thing is released, a game or movie or whatever, and for whatever reason you hate it, not just hate it you feel personally let down and disappointed because it didn't live up to the hype, or ruined the previous installment, or whatever. So you're upset, angry and want to vent so you go to the relevant sub and you spill all your thoughts about why the thing is shit, or wrong or whatever and you feel vindicated when people agree with you and shout down anyone who disagrees. But then... what of these people that stay on these subs and just post near daily years later about how the thing is shit and you still hate it. I'm thinking the Cyberpunk sub here, the Last of Us 2 one too. Like what motivates someone to stay there just to slap each other on the back about how shit you still find the game, how it's awful it was allowed to happen, etc. How many years before you're over it? How many posts will be enough? I find it all very strange. |

You would need to read up on a few plot points that happened in the first two seasons that carry over into 3 but just watch a recap vid and you're good to go, it's mostly its own thing. |

ColonizedMind 04/01/23 9:37:49 AM #7 | The third season is like a completely different show, different writers, most of dire original characters from the first two seasons are gone and it has everyone from the main TNG cast back. Its been great and as someone alluded to earlier, clearly written by someone who loves Trek. |

ColonizedMind 03/07/23 2:23:45 AM #42 | Rharyx211 posted... Yeah, I noticed that. Im going to blow your mind friend. Just because a scene comes after another in a show or film, doesnt mean its occurring after the scene that came before it chronologically, it just makes more sense for the scene to come after the previous scene narratively. Come on guys, were all adults, we dont need pointless scenes of people walking commenting man its been three hours of walkin here for us to get time has passed right? |

Ok, but I'm doing what I can. Are you really arguing I shouldn't judge people for buying Nintendo products unless I live like a hermit and don't engage with society? |

ColonizedMind 02/20/23 7:32:28 PM #55 | Paragon21XX posted... Might as well stop buying everything because they have their fingers in practically every pie in existence. You can name any publicly-traded company, and they likely have invested in it already. If it bothers you that much, maybe you ought to consider living up in the mountains and farm/forage/hunt for your own food. No thanks, I consider it a great shame they own so much, a lot of it what I'd consider essential. Nintendo isn't essential. There are plenty of video game companies not owned in part by Saudi Arabia thankfully! |

Yes, you've made a case for why we might have to compromise our morals when it comes to having what most humans in 2023 would consider "essentials". It's awful. However video games aren't essential, they're entertainment products you can live without, so I will judge anyone that supports Saudi Arabia's murderous homophobic agenda with willing purchases on Nintendo games and consoles tbh |

ColonizedMind 02/20/23 7:12:16 PM #42 | Paragon21XX posted... Okay? What do you expect a publicly-traded company to do about it? They can't say no as only the government of Japan has the authority to stop foreign investment of companies at certain percentage thresholds under FEFTA. I'm just judging people that willingly fund Saudi's homophobic hate and murder tbh. |

ColonizedMind 02/20/23 6:43:20 PM #33 | What this topic is really get to the heart of is that it's easy to boycott JK Rowling products, she one very rich bigot with a platform, she's foolish and easy to dislike, and her IP has produced exactly one game that isn't total shit, so easy to cut out. However, she's not that big of deal when you look at what Nintendo is, what Sony are doing, plus the countless other massive companies we rely on daily for entertainment or convenience. They do much worse stuff than JK Rowling could ever do, ever dream to do, but they're not so easy to boycott right? So JK Rowling is useful for these people to feel better about themselves. |

Topic | Quantumania is fucking awful *spoilers* |
ColonizedMind 02/17/23 8:41:31 AM #1 | The absolute worst of the MCU amplified to maximum. The script is awful, the jokes dont land ever, the acting is coasting at best, the choreography is absolutely terrible and worst of all it looks awful, the CGI is a joke, one of the worst looking films ever considering the budget but where does the money go? The visuals are so, so bad. And as typical the story has absolutely zero consequences outside of another bait and switch on setting up this vig bad only to kill him and show hes just one of many, great youre riffing on Rick and Morty years after it lost its relevance! Not only easily the worst MCU film, one of the worst superhero films ever |

I meant more narrative focused games, I doubt they would ever mention a real world restaurant, company or even celebrity in the Last of Us game, though tbf in Part 2 Joel alludes to Jurassic Park and the Lost World without mentioning them by name. |

ColonizedMind 02/02/23 2:56:27 AM #1 | I never finished it tbh, the story was just really dull and all over the place with all the character swapping and extremely long, repetitive sections. Not to mention theyve dialled up the cringey, anachronistic dialogue to 11. Gameplay was fine but basically the same as the last one and the new weapon blows. |

ColonizedMind 01/30/23 11:56:07 PM #164 | Its filler because the functioning parts of the episode amount for ten minutes if the run time, the rest is a filler love story that is both a massive deviation from the canon and doesnt effect anything. |

Im baffled by the praise of this episode. |

ColonizedMind 01/15/23 11:18:45 PM #36 | Well its arrogant to suggest a game shouldnt exist because it doesnt cater to your tastes. Like how self centred would I be if I went into the Mario movie topic and said Mario should ALWAYS have been a kids movie because I only like realistic shooters. |
