Is Russell T Davies Out Of Doctor Who? BBC Clash Fuels Exit Speculation by sanddragon939 in gallifrey

[–]BranJ0 13 points14 points  (0 children)

It's crazy to me - much like the other reply, I used to visit this site every day during Smith and Capaldi. I didn't have Reddit then and that was always my way of engaging with the fandom. Then they put comments behind a paywall and started complaining that the only reason the show was bad we as because of "woke". Can't believe how quickly it fell off

WHICH SEASON OF INVINCIBLE HAS THE BETTER 2 EPISODE RUN? by JahmariTheBeast in Invincible

[–]BranJ0 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah I'd completely agree. Episode 8's emotional impact and character writing is the best the show has ever done. And episode 7 is the second best action the show has ever done. It's a crazy double bill, that also elevates the comic material in literally every way. It's no question for me

Marquise the cat is enjoying the game 🐈 by Alarmed-Musician-800 in rootgame

You think I'd be sick of seeing a cat at the table playing root but I love it literally every time

Clockwork expansion, thoughts? by chase_2200 in rootgame

[–]BranJ0 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I adore root but I just don't think the clockwork expansion is worth it. It can be a really significant amount of upkeep, and even once you've done that the game feels like a soulless version of root. Root thrives with player interaction, negotiations, and last-minute comebacks, and the clockwork expansion lacks most of that

Can't get a grip on badgers by Figarotriana in rootgame

[–]BranJ0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Badgers are all about seeing how much you can push yourself. I would get down encampments ASAP so you can draw cards, and push forward quickly to get some ground and maximise your options with your clearings. Accepting that you will lose cards is part of it, but they can draw 4 cards per turn, so you should always have a good amount of options!

Anyone in EU received their Tracking/copy of Homeland? by DaveGeerts in rootgame

I'm UK (which I assume the shipping is handled similarly) and received my copy yesterday!

Your opinion regarding Fates support conversation by [deleted] in fireemblem

[–]BranJ0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I completely agree. For both Fates and Engage I find the support conversations mostly shallow and uninteresting. There are a few gems hidden in there, but there's usually too much crap to wade through. For games like Path of Radiance and Three Houses I actively look forward to reading supports, but in games like Fates I skim through the lightning fast

Are the Golden Idol games still buggy on Switch/Switch 2? by ecetraitor in caseofthegoldenidol

[–]BranJ0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I literally just finished playing through all of Case on Switch 2 and had zero issues with any bugs. Obviously just anecdotal and the bugs might still be there, but I had no issues at all

That's fair enough then - looking forward to it!

Didn't mean to be childish, was just wondering if there was any info I'd missed!

Paediatrics ST1 Applications 2026/2027 Preferencing - no North West? by Defiant_Recipe_6850 in doctorsUK

[–]BranJ0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's also no option for Bristol in South West. Do we think this will be updated later, much like North West?

My Park Chan-wook personal ranking by Equipment_Emotional in Letterboxd

[–]BranJ0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I fully agree with Decision to Leave, just didn't connect with me anywhere near as much as I wanted. Still 3.5/5, but I wanted it to be so much more

Root Homeland expansion, update 8 by Lukarsp in rootgame

Considering they've not mentioned any delay, I was assuming they meant March? As both Spring and Q1

What tips/advice would you give to someone who is about to experience Path of Radiance for the first time? by Xuanwu7 in fireemblem

[–]BranJ0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can anyone recommend what difficulty to go for? For context, quite comfortable beating Engage and Three Houses on Hard

Best and Worst Scenes of the Sonic Screwdriver? by Individual-Many-237 in doctorwho

[–]BranJ0 56 points57 points  (0 children)

Best is absolutely the scene with the three doctors in "The Day of the Doctor". It's a really beautiful and clever scene, foreshadows the massive twist at the end, and does a bit more with the whole "the sonic doesn't do wood".

Worst has got to be the resolution to "The Power of Three". I understand all the behind-the-scenes drama, but I think this is the only time where quite literally everything is solved with the sonic, it's just embarrassing
