I like it. Roll with the consequences of your actions, be they accidental or not, but I can see how that can be frustrating for some

Yeah, tanking a district makes that area harder and doesnt feel great; however, if you don’t kill any of them, the combat is really hard because you’re under levelled. So you have to make moral judgements and choose who is “best” to kill.

That’s just the campaign. They’ll slap an 8/10 on the multiplayer and call it a day. It’ll sell gang busters again, then when they do the same thing again next year, no-one will bat an eye.

That still can’t inform you properly on how a game ‘feels’ to play. I’m very tempted by Alan Wake 2, but having bounced off many other similar games because of how they control has me pining for a demo. I’ll not be dropping 50 quid without being able to try it first

The episode could’ve been called Shades of Cave(s)

Oh nice. Didn’t realise these were out now as I don’t have Netflix. Definitely wanna check them out. Need to rewatch Ateroid City actually, I watched it with someone clearly not interested who kept talking!

I watched Citizen Kane for the first time. It’s one I’d never got round to despite it being so lauded. I’ll be honest, it being black and white and from 1941, I had prejudged it as I’ve not been a fan of other films of that era.

Thankfully, It’s pretty bloody good! In many ways it feels a more modern film than many that came after it. Yes, some of the acting is a bit hokey, but Orson Welles is great, and the directing, cinematography, and music are all stellar. There’s so many bold and interesting choices and often a tangible sense of heightened reality about it. It’s an odd film in that it outlines the entire plot in the first 10 minutes, but still hooks you with the central question. What is Rosebud? But, more importantly, who is Charles Foster Kane?

True. Unfortunately, holding people in the transport buffer is one of those things you have to entirely forget exists if you want to tell certain stories. The transporter in general could trivialise a lot of story beats.

I enjoyed the demo but I do hope they tweaked a few things. I hear they made the dodge more viable which should make it a much smoother experience

That first season of TNG is… rough. Although, that’s kind of an issue with most trek and it can easily put people off. Only TOS, Lower Decks, and Strange New Worlds were birthed with beard full grown

Quite a lot of horny though… 😳
