Meh, they're really going to run John Wick to the ground aren't they?

It was never meant to have a sequel, but it did. Somehow they pulled it off and it was great, I liked it even more than the original.

But then the ending of that one made it REAL hard to have a good follow up. All assassins everywhere in the planet want to kill him now? The entire planet? Give me a break. And of course, living in the age we do, JW3 had to incorporate SJW pandering - enter the empowered spy womyn who don't need no man, who is so awesome that she can drink a bottle of water and then spit it on John's mouth just to humiliate him, and please include a 5 (or was it 10?) minute scene of her dogs castrating men with their jaws, because, girl power.

Don't get me wrong, JW3 was still a good film, just nowhere as good as the first 2, and it introduced many plot issues that make JW4 difficult to pull off like the supposedly dead assassin chiefs that will now be John's allies, the fact that there's an over-arching criminal syndicate overlooking the criminal syndicate, and that is oddly obsessed with civility and rules, and other issues like that.

I don't see JW4 shaping as a good film, but I hope I am wrong, I am a big fan of the first two.
Weren't there books that these movies were inspired by, or am I completely wrong on that?

I remember I got it at GameStop years ago, asked if all the games played fine and the guy said yes, he just tested it to make sure (as I was calling around to see who had it first). Brought it home, the only games that would play were the NES games. The others would just crash on boot-up. Had to convince my mom to let me go back and get a refund.

Never tried to get that again. I just found that weird since it was literally my only bad experience with a GameStop.

Still, similar concept. And I think the existence of Koopa the Quick in the huge version suggests that it's normally a supersized enemy land with a gimmick of supersizing yourself to dwarf everything else.

I have a Switch and Astral Chain. It's a textbook example of a game held back by being on a weak system.
I respectfully disagree that the Switch held it back. I think they made a great game (and great-looking) and the only time the game gets serious framerate issues is one area in one mission when there's no combat involved.

Though I will say I generally am not a fan of exclusive third-party titles anymore. If future Bayonetta titles could be multiplatform I'd absolutely advocate for it. Hell, I want those Vanquish and Bayonetta 1 remasters to not just be Xbox exclusive.

Fun thing about the Lickers, they're designed to make you jump (like looking in your direction/crawling slowly towards you and making sudden movements when you get close), but won't actually attack you if you never run. This even means into rooms that don't have them spawn in yet (like the hall where you first encounter a Licker...if you ran in there before the Licker spawned in it'll know you're there).

Hope that doesn't count as a spoiler. Just trying to give a gameplay tip to make Lickers easier to deal with.

This, tbh. Doesn't feel genuine when they go "by the way, we got an LGBT character in this movie! Brownie points for us, right!?"

I don't remember if they did the same thing with the gay guy in Endgame, but that part didn't feel forced anyway. I didn't even remember it until now and I watched Endgame like a few weeks ago.

TBH, Mr. X was great in REmake2, but I can't see having something similar with Nemesis only the entire game.

Hoping for just a bunch of semi-scripted moments like in the original. Decide what to do at a split second or have some segments where he's chasing you until you find a place to hide and he's gone afterwards, not actually stalking the city.
