| Topic | Is Chemical Plant Zone the best music in the Sonic franchise? |
| ForteXX 02/11/18 1:45:16 AM #20 | Chemical Plant Zone OST is kinda like Final Fantasy VII to me: -Is it the most well known if its brethren? Yes (probably) -Is it really good? Yes -Is it the best? Nooooooooooo way Picking the best would be hard though. --- Currently: Playing Ys VIII Thinking about my playthrough of Xenoblade Chronicles 2 |

I've since regressed back into unhealthy eating though. D: --- Currently: Playing Ys VIII Thinking about my playthrough of Xenoblade Chronicles 2 |

The original Final Fantasy I assumed they only meant the NES version. It's weird they included the PSP version but not GBA. --- Currently: Thinking about my playthrough of Xenoblade Chronicles 2 Playing YS VIII |

| ForteXX 12/19/17 3:42:57 AM #120 | Ultima_Dragoon posted... Almost every movie I watch nowadays, I'm taken out of the moment by at least one part that doesn't make sense, but I don't let it ruin the whole movie for me. You kind of said this, but I think people are over-analyzing this movie just because it's Star Wars. My only complaint was that the subplot wasn't very interesting and went on for too long. Coming from someone who's not really a Star Wars fan, no. It's just a bland movie with completely unbelievable characters, several useless plot points, and unsatisfying conclusions. --- Currently: Thinking about my playthrough of Xenoblade Chronicles 2 Playing YS VIII |

| ForteXX 12/19/17 3:41:03 AM #42 | Snyder's take on DC has been terrible, and this is from someone who's not even a big DC fan. Joss Whedon's (obvious) sections weren't even that great over all but they seemed like they were because of how they contrasted with Snyder's awful quality. For once the characters smiled and seemed sorta like people. --- Currently: Thinking about my playthrough of Xenoblade Chronicles 2 Playing YS VIII |
| Topic | I hope nobody ever complains about the Star Wars prequels ever again (spoilers) |
| ForteXX 12/19/17 2:45:29 AM #37 | Doctor Foxx posted... And people gave it a chance with A New Hope in large part because of the unique setting (and excellent effects). It was an easily accessible sci Fi blockbuster unlike anything else. Without that initial interest it wouldn't have gone where it did. If Star Wars was just normal humans in space it would have been boring af. Star Wars brought so much more than that and laid out out on the table in big portions with ANH. That characters didn't gain near the same depth until the following movies. Yes, it helped, but it wasn't good and hasn't stood the test of time because it was weird. Lots of crap is weird. Nor did I say the characters had depth. They were simply characters being put in a situation and they had to deal with that situation, and the way the reacted to things weren't all that different than how we'd react. There weren't these awful, forced, unbelievable plot points like whatever her name was withholding information for no logical reason, simply because the writers needed a forced way for Finn to be part of the story and find a love interest. That's not a believable character. Doctor Foxx posted... The OT is not without its flaws either. Not all of the behavior was sensible. There are plot holes. There's deus ex machina. OT is still an enjoyable watch. Of course it's not flawless. But it's not blatantly stupid like this movie was. I keep going back to this, but it's so blatant: Why withhold information when it's causing a freaking mutiny and putting the plan to save people in jeopardy? Just tell them the damn plan or you're all going to die! There was no reason to withhold it at all. Not to mention the anime-filler-episode esque portion of Finn and LoveInterestGirl going to the casino planet. Sure, there were filler type portions in ESB but they didn't take up a huge portion of the movie and act like a huge plot point. This casino thing was long and acted like it was some huge important part of the movie that ended up leading to nothing but a lame, emotionless battle between Finn and Phasma that no one cares about because we know next to nothing about Phasma and Finn's past at all and it was over in a couple minutes and had no satisfying conclusion. I could go on and on about how stupid this movie is, but why should I? People will just come in and make dumb excuses about why it's good like strange colored milk and how awesome it is, completely forgetting what made the originals such masterful movies in the first place. Doctor Foxx posted... SmokeMassTree posted...Just one of the many cheap cgi "silly so it's cute and funny" moments. It was a cringey and forced attempt at humor. It did nothing for Luke's character. --- Currently: Thinking about my playthrough of Xenoblade Chronicles 2 Playing YS VIII |

| ForteXX 12/19/17 2:24:18 AM #34 | SmokeMassTree posted... Especially the way the thing looked at Rey like "oh hey want some" Yes, the humor in general was so bad in this. Nice try on the Kotaku article trying to force that the movie was good though. They should hire the author to write the next one, he'll fit right in. --- Currently: Thinking about my playthrough of Xenoblade Chronicles 2 Playing YS VIII |

| ForteXX 12/19/17 2:08:50 AM #32 | They're equally horrible in their own ways, but I'd gladly watch the prequels again over this because: -They didn't feel full of fan service; they were trying to be their own thing -They were telling a story that was actually intended to be told, these new movies just feel forced, Rogue One included (the biggest snore fest of them all) Doctor Foxx posted... Posting this here too, an article I strongly agree with (spoilers warning) Uh, Star Wars isn't Star Wars as we know it today because it's weird. Star Wars is Star Wars as we know it today because it had memorable characters that had believable intentions and didn't do stupid things like not tell their crew about a seemingly suicidal plan, which caused a mutiny, which could've been easily averted by simply saying what the damn plan was. --- Currently: Thinking about my playthrough of Xenoblade Chronicles 2 Playing YS VIII |
| Topic | 4 > 8 > 5 > 7 > 3 > 6 > Rouge One > 2 > 1 |
| ForteXX 12/19/17 1:55:57 AM #30 | kukukupo posted... 5 > 4 > 6 > I'm not even a huge Star Wars fan (I am one, just not a huge one) and I totally agree. Maybe I still accept the prequels, despite their being terrible, because it was a story almost always intended to be told. But 7, 8, and Rogue One? Just feels like a fan fiction. The movies were over with 6, the conflict was resolved, anything past them just feels forced. That said, putting the Star Wars name aside, 8 just wasn't an enjoyable movie at all. Neither was Rogue One. 7 was ok. JanwayDaahl posted... Aside from snoke and the fight with the elites nothing about 8 was memorable. I didn't even like the fight with the elites, I'm assuming that's the guys in red. It was just wiping out a bunch of faceless soldiers. I just kept asking "Why should I care?" I agree Snoke was memorable, until he got axed for whatever reason. I get what they did, Snoke was sensing Ren's intentions, which were to destroy his real enemy, Snoke just didn't realize he was that enemy, but it was still totally stupid. Snoke actually commanded a presence on screen with all his creepy ways of throwing Rey around the room, he was starting to win me over as an intimidating villain. But now we're stuck with the whining baby that really really wants to be Darth Vader. It was a bad movie, a bad Star Wars movie, and a bad Force Awakens sequel. The trifecta. --- Currently: Thinking about my playthrough of Xenoblade Chronicles 2 Playing YS VIII |

Idk, I guess I can just take things at face value and learn how to deal with things. I'm similar to you. Never have had a particular career path I'm passionate about or even interested in. Just basically want enough to get by and get the hell home so I can spend time with people I care about. I've also been working for about a decade in the same work. But I'm starting to think about some schooling, nothing much though. --- Currently: Anxiously awaiting Xenoblade Chronicles 2 |
| Topic | Digital vs psychical copies :) |
| ForteXX 11/02/17 11:24:47 AM #24 | Physical. Considered going all digital for Switch, then found Best Buy GCU. I'm really glad too because my all-digital mindset was just a fad and I would've ended up regretting it. I love having my collection on display. Even though no one sees it because it's out of view, I just like pulling up a chair and looking at certain cases and whatnot. --- Currently: Playing Super Mario Odyssey Formerly known as ForteGX |
