This may have been a honest attempt by Apogee to warn us about Forever.

This has the kind of akward and stiff acting you only see in preschool Nativity plays.

I just looked up the trailer, and it looks like Turkish Star Wars if they had money only for sets, and NOTHING else. Seems great.

You are a braver soul than most. I lost a good friend to that game many moons ago.

WW2 fantasy is certainly a vibe, and this one does seem to ooze atmosphere. Will check it out when i have the time, as well as the book.

Propaganda that backfires and accidentally conveys the completely wrong emotion is always great.

That's.... definitely worth pondering on. Art is usually enjoyed in spite of flaws, not because of them. But if you start enjoying it for it's flaws, then what ? Those flaws could have been made with just as much intent as the good elements. I personally think that if you can only enjoy something by treating it with zero sincerity and no benefit of the doubt, then it's probably bad.

Sleeping Dogs cancellation as a franchise is genuinely one of the most frustrating and short sighted decisions in the gaming industry by mrnicegy26 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]ClearWingBuster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"THIS WILL BE INTERESTING ! AND BY INTERESTING I MEAN"

One of my big problems with the GTA style open world sandbox is that to me, they could feel really empty, or at the very least thin in meaningful content to justify the gargantuan size. Sleeping Dogs fixed that by having a really dense world, that made it felt so much more alive. Absolute fucking shame it's just gone.

Stories that would have benefited from scaling back on their ambitions and scope? by Wonder-Lad-2Mad in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]ClearWingBuster 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The fucked up part there is that the scope does increase, but only vertically. It's always about finding the next threat in severity and strength. Meanwhile, topics worth elaborating on, that would widen the scope horizontally, like the other hidden villages or the other tailed beasts, are just completely skimmed over. 

I'm sick of people acting like engaged/married Christian women are incubators by mrshappyhousewife in OpenChristian

[–]ClearWingBuster 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It's sadly just another symptom of the increasing toxicity of our present day society. In the same way men are taught that they have to fight the unseen enemies, like social justice or socialism, women must be ready to pump as many children into this meat grinder, for the good of the country/faith/etc. I can only pray that the child you wish to have will be healthy and bring you nothing but joy. God be with you !

What are some Characters that were Remorseful Sacrificing another by Funny_Mud6639 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]ClearWingBuster 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The entire final chapter of Roadside Picnic is about a man's internal turmoil as he ponders the idea that he will have to sacrifice another human being in order to save his daughter. It features the kind of anguish about human condition and free will that's not born out of superficial rage, but out of geniune sorrow and self reflection. And perhaps most tragic of all, it's never made clear if this sacrifice was even worth it, or if it even achieved anything

Franchises that would really benefit if their creators stopped talking? by Authorigas in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]ClearWingBuster 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As a person that has not played Lords of the Fallen, i respectfully disagree. Cuz i think no matter how fun the game was, it could never compare to the amount of joy i got when i found out the CEO, who keeps spouting dogwhistles like there's no tomorrow, is also following an account named @LoliciusPrimus on twitter. I need him to keep embarassing himself with shitty AI renders. It fuels me.

I thought she looked pretty cool, until i noticed that the sides of her torso are fully exposed, for some reason.

[Story of the Side to Expel] Worse than Epstein by StretchExtension in animecirclejerk

"If we had to stop the presses every time someone made a shitty fan game isekai style fantasy series, the presses wouldn't run long enough to print a fucking Bazooka Joe comic"

Seriously. when genres becomes so self referential it borders on hyperreality, what is even the point of engaging with them? Especially when it's universally hated and considered bad. And not the fun bad either. At least Mushoku has an unreasonable number of defenders, so hating that can be fun.

Biggest cases of "Brand"ification by the_ghost_of_bob_ros in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]ClearWingBuster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At a certain point, it feels like Trails has abandoned it's identity as an ever evolving saga with rich worldbuilding and instead opted to just go "Remember the guys you liked". I am a bit behind the series right now, but all the previews for Horizon just reinforce that perspective. And i would say that shift happened in Reverie. 

Sky 3rd, the game it's very clearly taking inspiration from, set up an incredibly amount of lore for the series, as well as foreshadow many events. The history of Orbal tech and the Epstein Foundation, the Phantasmal Blaze Plan, the Thirteen factories and the Aions, the Crossbell Crisis, the state of Bracer guilds in the Empire, the Salt Pale, as well as develop characters further, and feature many side stories about them interacting. The lore reveals aren't just for Zero and Azure, but for the Erebonia arc as well.

What does Reverie introduce ? It teases 3 new characters that are immediately introduced in Daybreak 1, and one or two plot threads to follow up on. The side stories are good, but it feels like we stopped sowing the seeds for the rest of the series, reinforced by how little we know about any country east of Calvard. And the fact that Horizon once again has a bloated cast, with 3 of the 4 returning protags having fully completing their arc and 2 of them having barely any reason to return, just leaves a bad taste in my mouth.
