Oh I regret looking at the comments on Roma Downey's post. Now I know who Scott Presler is. Ugh.

Scott Presler seems to be that kid in the Simpsons episode where Lisa goes to DC after writing an essay, and the other kid wins for "USA AOK".

Isn't that the definition of a stereotype?

*shrug* That works. He's not wrong that it's badly worded though.

I did naht hit her. It's bullshit.

If it were me, I wouldn't brag about not knowing who she is. All it shows is that you don't pay attention.

Oh Christ here's a man who knows he's not going to be in any more Star Wars movies.

Did you really write big butt as a description on the report?

Ended pretty strong. Had a real heart to its atmosphere. Combat was decent. I loved that alien rock music.

Kinda buggy. Exploration dragged a little.

Solid B.

I mean, it's a fun idea, but it's not something that's in the realm of feasibility at the moment.

Still, cool to know.

I don't really know how you could do it wrong. Even if you just throw garbage at people the whole game it's an absolute blast. Then you start flying around and it's a whole new level of fun.

Yeah you'd think a game where you can telekinetically fling stuff at enemies wouldn't get stale, but Control managed.

Shoot shoot shoot shoot launch launch shoot shoot shoot shoot launch launch.

And using Levitate? I forgive that the controls for levitating are awkward (only one hold of the jump button carries you up, other pushes alternate you between slow fall and actual fall), but they make it practically useless for actual combat when you have to aim and oh by the way you're wide open while flying so may as well just get back into cover instead.

I'm not saying I didn't have fun with it, because I did for a time, but that was it for the combat mechanics.

Again, I reference DMC5 and Astral Chain for combat mechanics that were not only deeper but felt good throughout.

Congratulations. You've reached your daily quota for using other peoples' Star Wars topic to shit on Star Wars. You may now go away.

If you thought the combat was boring you were doing something terribly wrong.

Perhaps if you would tell me how to do the combat "right".

---

CyricZ

Control was okay. I liked its mood and lore, but the combat was so dishwater.

Heck I like Fallen Order better than Control. I find its combat more satisfying.

Still, for combat, Devil May Cry 5 and Astral Chain blow both of those out of the water.

For story, I give big ups to AI: The Somnium Files, but I get it can be too Japanese-y for some.

Outer Wilds is my game of the year, though. Such amazing content in such a small package.

So you're claiming that the Republicans impeached Obama? I don't remember that.

So, wait - investigating Biden IS bad? So he IS above the law?

Even you aren't this thick.

Investigate Obama. Investigate Biden.

I actually don't care, so long as you impeach Trump.

These are not as gotcha as you want them to be, DJL.

Just think.

DJL could have said nothing.

jury nullification

There's no jury in an impeachment trial. The "jury" is essentially the Senate, and they cast individual votes as to whether to find the President guilty.

it's weird how in the last movie he senses luke has a sister but never knew about luke wouldn't he sense that too it's just an ass pull

Luke was thinking about her. Real loudly. Vader even says directly that Luke's "thoughts betray him".

Man, this is what sexual assault is now? How is this a big deal?

When has slapping someone's ass ever not been sexual assault.

We don't need any more Bioshock.

Make a new game with a new IP that has a good concept. Don't recycle old stuff and pretend it's brand new, especially if you're not going to involve anyone from Irrational.

It's not really "Japan's" place to say the manji "is over". I see what they're doing in the case of this story, changing the map symbols probably because they're sick of dealing with weird uneducated foreigners.

"B-but a woman did it too! See that makes it okay"

It's less "that makes it okay" and more "stop feeling bad for women because sometimes men have to deal with it too... stop it!"

CyricZ

Yeah, let me rephrase that. If they kill him, they'll have to have a bunch of others get his powers, because one of the whole points of Watchmen is "What if superheroes", and removing the actual superman from the equation is just petering fallout afterwards. Might be interesting to see multiple Manhattans and see how they interact and conflict.

Akagami_Shanks posted...

his time dilation thing might as well not even be a power of his if he's not going to change anything.

It's undeniably his greatest weakness and what detaches him from humanity the most.

Regardless, there's a pretty decent chance he's dying the next episode. Just remains to be seen whether we'll have a bunch of Manhattans running around or not.

Another beautiful day on this Earth.

Another gaggle of CEmen making sexual harassment about women.

Yeah I dunno. I really don't think Doc is a master planner or anything. I feel like his superego is basically along for the ride on his "living everything at once" train, and a lot of his actual actions are emotion-based, which seems odd to say given he's living all his moments at once, therefore he's experiencing every emotion at once. Still, his emotions seem to hit harder at the moment he actually feels them, which comes as a surprise to even him (when he yells at the reporters in the interview, when he learns Dan and Laurie are sleeping together).

I feel like Doc's responding the best way his detached god-self can given his lack of understanding of moments as they come. Which is to say he sent Adrian to Europa because he assumed it would make him happy and keep him from killing anyone else.
