    Everquest II

    I wonder if I could get my characters back from 2004-2005/6? Edit: Yep, all still there, with names changed/letters added through what I assume are due to server consolidation, although I am pretty sure no other people chose those names. Logged in as my 50 Berzerker and immediately...

    Hades (Supergiant Games)

    Supergiant has always been San Fran as fuck, and even when they were/are making great games that bled through a bit. It was always overlookable but always present. I could never get very far into Hades, It just never clicked for me. I guess I just suck at roguelikes, because while the game was...

    SWTOR

    I need to go back and finish some of those class quests. It's a great game. Fuck what Bioware has become, though, thankfully they gave it to someone who won't woke it death, IIRC.

    Warhammer 40k Space Marine 2

    How it started: How its going: Edit: Reportedly Ashley is at EA Motive at present, so that Dead Space remake is another one to not pre-order. "...She is currently a Senior Writer at EA Motive....She is an advocate for representation in games and believes games are for everyone." Unless...

    Stellar Blade (April 26th, PS5)

    "All the normal skin is fine, just not the pink stuff; That's what makes the debil come out. And by Debil I mean my penis", said the Censors. Heteronormative sex doesn't help Smash Capitalism, Comrade. All things must burn for Utopia to rise. Non-gay girls butts are also verboten. I guess...

    Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire (2024)

    Nick Fury is played by Samuel L. Jackson in the Avengers not because of DEI but because the Avengers in the MCU is primarily based on the Ultimates comics run, which differs from the 616 main universe in a number of ways; Nick Fury in the Ultimates is based on, get this, Samuel L. Jackson...

    Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire (2024)

    Everything post-Endgame has completely, utterly flopped. Yes, the DEI MCU is bad business. Edit: the three movies in 2022 are far off the MCU expectations and nothing after even made money. "Far from Home" isn't DEI MCU standard any longer: THREE straight white male leads? Unheard of and...

    Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire (2024)

    Sure, I know its commerce as well as art. You know what else is bad business? Bad movies. Rubbing the Panderstone and thinking about "Well, POC constitutes x% of the audience, therefore X characters need to appeal to POC demographics" is a recipe for shit movies. You can slightly tailor your...

    Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire (2024)

    Holy shit your stint here is going to be short. Do you think no one here has ever heard of risk management or demographics or statistics? Do you think that any of those things make a movie good? Make a movie watchable? Make anyone feel anything? Make anything ART? Does making a Transformer...

    Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire (2024)

    This is why everything sucks today: Because even when you get past Marxist Ideologues and DEI Activists (Same thing) trying to enforce The Message™ quotas in everything, you have accountants and consultant asshats preaching GOD MONEY (hat tip NIN) AUDIENCE like this. Wonder why we had so many...

    Akira Toriyama - Dragon Ball creator dies.

    I had no idea how much this would affect me. I was never big into Dragonball in any of its forms but I have always been aware it, and it feels like its always been around. It was one of the first regularly aired anime and constant meme fodder for 40+ years. All of these creators dying, and...
