Dapper_Swindler posted:because when i posted it, people went nuts and the artist was a monster or some poo poo. you can never tell sometimes outside the obvious "they are a chud". The repetition is probably the biggest issue most people had with it, and my 'solution' I guess was just to visit all the mission givers for a district to open up all the areas that had to be cleared, and then turn the game volume down and listen to movie reviews/podcasts while I swept through and did them all. To compare it something like GTA5, I thought Mafia 3 gave you a good deal of freedom in how you approached things, either going stealthy, or gun blazing; in GTA5, you're on-rails for the most part, and deviating from how the game wants you to do things sends you back to a checkpoint. I never did play the DLC. I should look to see if it goes on sale for cheap during the next Steam Sale. Dapper_Swindler posted:than gently caress em. personaly if we had people who could explain the badness of toxic masculinty and not be weird dumb wankers prudes who post hot takes like this. https://twitter.com/radicalbytes/status/1191815810081116160 than we would be better off.  Also, didn't the original book of Fight Club have some different ideas behind it then the movie did? (I know there was an afterword by the author in the reprints that discusses it, but I can't find a transcript of it). Jimbot posted:I dunno, the response from the hardcore Marvel fans on Martin Scorsese's comments mirror what DC fans have been doing. It's just easier to malign the Snyder cut people because those movies are divisive and you can assign cult of personality or severe cases of denial for liking those films. Speaking of Scorsese, he actually put out a write up about the Marvel thing. Haven't read it yet, though. EDIT: Also this feels like the fourth time in the last week where one of my posts started a new page. Max Wilco fucked around with this message at 05:47 on Nov 6, 2019 |

Babysitter Super Sleuth posted:While I don't personally give that much of a poo poo (didn't watch justice league) the Snyder Cut apparently does exist in some watchable workprint form, as a couple people (including Jason Momoa) have claimed to have actually watched it. Also, it wouldn't exactly be the first time that a studio-mangled Superman film had a salvage cut reflecting the original directors vision released well after the original run, see: Superman 2's Donner cut.

No, it should be a 30 hour video and the first 3 seconds are her gearing up to do a serious response and then it just cuts to the Sitting and Smiling guy for the rest of it.

I mean sure it would be funny to do a 30 hour response to the 11 hour video, but it would be even better to do a 30 hour response to the 11 hour video, without having ever watched the 11 hour video.

Babysitter Super Sleuth posted:I mean, the Snyder cut people have raised a metric fuckton of money for charity, while fans of the MCU have spent the last several weeks melting the gently caress down and writing novels about how corporate greed destroying film history is good, actually, because some mean old directors pointed out that the MCU movies are pap for children, so I don't think this comparison bares out as well as you think it does. Anyone mindlessly going to bat for Disney over the MCU because they want to see all their favorite toys bump against each other on the big screen and call it high art is supreme dumbassery. I'm not denigrating sincere DC fans at all, but there are definitely a lot of people pretending to be sincere fans of the DC movies or comics just to play up the Us vs Them thing and blame the MCU's success on whatever conglomeration of a feminism/sjws/the jews/etc. conspiracy that's palatable to their audience. The real problem is absolutely an all-consuming media conglomeration and the excess of late stage capitalism, but these types of people don't really want to reform the media landscape or financial system. They want to milk the group of alt-righters they've groomed into thinking they're the last holdouts of true nerd culture. It helps that the DC movies do have a large contingent of genuine fans with valid analyses of DC and Marvel movies, as can be seen from it just leaking slightly in the comments here right now.

Nuns with Guns posted:Hey... Sonic Mania was pretty good Played it during Extra Life. It's really not. It's very faithful to the originals but the originals were bad too? Like they're games that tell you "gotta go fast" and then put enemies in places where you won't be spinning or just random roadblocks that reduce your speed to zero. Bad game. Pretty though.

Sonic Mania is about on par with Sonic 2. Take as you will. Now Sonic Generations was honestly great, but that’s still nearly 10 years old.

Sample funky fresh lyrics: Everyone who prayed for his late daughter, you can just tell he appreciates all-a you It's a shame Warner Brothers didn't respectfully let him reflect and grieve Instead they pressed delete on every epic scene The second he requested they never even mentioned her in the credits. How's she gonna rest in peace?

I tried watching Mr. Enter's review on Extra Credits and dear god did it get bad when the politics started coming out. I don't think he quite understands what "all art is political" means, and him acting affronted to the idea of Cards Against Humanity being political when the company has pulled a lot of political stunts was hilarious.

CmdrKing posted:Sonic Mania is about on par with Sonic 2. Take as you will. Generations is pretty decent but it has some bad choices in Sonic games to honor (why even bother reminding people that 06 exists?) and a few poo poo levels. Sonic Colours, on the other hand, is straight-up good, and deserves far more love with an HD rerelease on modern platforms. How they managed to make the Planet Wisp level in Sonic Generations so atrocious, I have no idea. I actually like the 3DS version of Sonic Generations more, just because the games it chooses to draw from are far better. Plus it has Casino Nights  .MonsieurChoc posted:Sonic Rush was good, and had a soundtrack by Hideki Naganuma, who also did the Jet Set Radio soundtrack. Sonic Rush's OST is a terrible, terrible earworm and gently caress you for putting it back in my head. Eat SKA-CHA-CHA!  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0XFXoWTn9iA

Fantastic remixes though. Sonic Colors was also good fun IMO. And has one of the few final bosses that doesnt suddenly force a new mechanic on you.
