I agree to a point, but Mad Max is an example of something original that seems to have come from a place of creativity instead of a committee and yet is still doing poorly.
So I don’t think it’s just that Hollywood has a tendency to do remakes instead of original stuff.
Expect to see memes about it too in other communities. This’ll be the front page of most fediverse instances in some fashion for the rest of the day I imagine
Honestly, I’d be down for that. I love dogs
He was Paul Allen in American Psycho, though I don’t know how successful that was at release.
Fair enough! I still prefer the implied version, but it’s definitely nice to have alternatives.
Also, I haven’t kept up with SF6. I was surprised Akuma wasn’t a launch character.
I’m seeing a lot of his moves from 3rd Strike, which is nice. Not a fan of that raging demon though. I still think it’s better the less of it you see and the more of it that’s implied.
Is the 35th anniversary the release of 64, Sunshine, and Galaxy on the Switch? I’d say the artificial scarcity aspect to induce fomo wasn’t any better. It might have even been worse.
I would suggest looking at other Kbin instances outside of kbin.social. or look to mbin, which is a fork that in told is more stable. I also haven’t made the jump from Kbin, but have been having similar issues with usability with it for awhile.
They were being sarcastic, by the way.
As a bisexual man, the 90s were much different for LGBT folks than today. But yes, for most people, the 90s wouldn’t be too much worse than today, aside from economics.
Was better in some regards. I think most minorities in the US would agree that they at least feel safe and more free to exist in 2024 than they would in the 1980s or earlier.
I’m curious, where’s “over here” for you? I’m not super involved in politics here in the US, but I don’t think surrogacy is really talked about much here? There’s the people who vehemently oppose it (from my experience that’s mostly the religious right), but almost any interaction I’ve had discussing it just lists it as an option people can consider.
I should mention that I’m Bi and don’t have a kid, so I mostly hear about it from the context of same sex couples.
That’s not-
Wait a minute. Ha, you almost had me, you sly dog.
I think they meant guaranteed income prior to selling the game, since they had no way of knowing how successful (if at all) the game was going to be once released.
He’s talking about Zaheer and the Red Lotus. They were extremely well intentioned, but set about their goals with violence.
I’ll never stop complaining that in the second movie Dooku tells Obi-Wan that the Separatists are the good guys and that there’s a sith influencing the Senate. Which would have been a cool reveal for the audience, that we’re rooting for the bad guys.
But then Dooku is also a sith anyway. What a wasted opportunity.
Yeah, everyday I fear it’ll get taken down. I’m seriously unsure how it’s lasted this long. I hope it stays up forever though.
I recently beat the PC port of Chrono Trigger, which was my first time beating it. It held up better than I expected.
Currently I’m switching off between Megaman Battle Network 2, Half Life, and Lost Odyssey. It’s my first time playing Lost Odyssey and I’m a little surprised how much I’m enjoying it. It helps that the localization has been really good so far.
I hope you do play it someday! I think it’s definitely a game you have to be in the mood for, but when it clicks it’s an amazing experience. But I also think it’s really easy to bounce off of it too
Just because it’s a sequel doesn’t mean it’s derivative. All 5 movies are directed by the same guy. I can’t speak for the first 3, but if you saw the 2015 movie and couldn’t tell that it was a passion project, then I don’t know what to tell you. We don’t call Sherlock Holmes soulless even though Doyle wrote over 50 short stories starring Holmes.
It’s entirely possible for someone to be creatively invested in a world they’ve built and want to keep exploring it in future works.
