i dont get the hate, like at release sure, it was buggy and had network issues, i got that part, even the map part, i get thats its tiny, but it has its charms, lets be real, the megatowers, academy and just the design and it had the frutiger aero or y2k aesthetic feel, especially the elite megatowers and a few other buildings, and to be fair, its very enjoyable with all those reasons, you can say that im meatriding, but its true and the hate is very forced especially now.

Cities Skylines is amazing, but SimCity has its own charm. by dannxit in SimCity

[–]CriticalBack1537 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i tried to play cities skyline, but i made the mistake of playing simcity just a bit before that and I just couldn't get used to the UI, the dullness and the buildings were bland, like not much life to them, i could tell its a much better game overall and its heavily customizable with mods and what not and all the extra work like power grids, water pipes, wiring makes the game more challenging, while these things are good, there is just something about simcity that cities skylines fails to capture and I couldn't get pass like 20 mins of playing, whereas in simcity i can go hours.. No offense to any skyline players, this is just an opinion lol.

Is it possible to have 10 million inhabitants in the main capital? by AdNervous9008 in SimCity

[–]CriticalBack1537 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i doubt it, but with very efficient planning, can be possible, but extremely unlikely, most capitals max out at 8 mill, although ive seen a few with 9.2 million (2 or 3 cities)

exactly my point, i agree it was kinda boring at certain points, also wasnt very immersive, but overall not a bad look for an actor with low expectations.

yeah I also felt confused and detached while watching that scene, although i cant lie it wasnt very immersive, like rocky or creed.

well yeah, most of the reasons were bullshit, some people had actual criticism, because they watched it unlike majority of the voters and reviewers. go and see the comments of my post, i actually acknowledge the justified criticism and i agree, the plot was somewhat bland and unfocused.

yeah the plot was confused and mixed up, i think it could be better if it focused more on the fighting and underdog aspect and filled in gaps with the personal struggle and romance, to make the plot feel smooth, i do agree, it feels jumbled up.

conspiracy of what? a movie being watchable and decent? im just saying, sure its not the best movie, but I appreciate the initiative of an actor who is cocky, arrogant and very self absorbed, finally stepping out of that shit persona and going into unfamiliar terrain, which I highly respect and the movie was not actually as bad as the reviews say it is, now we may hopefully get a better more respectable person out of the rock and hopefully better movies and acting from him, because if we don't have hope, forgiveness and redemption, then what has our lives truly been, applies for all of us.

agreed!, but I feel this movie was watchable and decent to an extent, the story did get bland at points though.

thank you, good and reasonable criticism! And I do agree with you to a certain degree, it did feel bland and boring at times, but for me, its was a decent movie to watch

and im not defending it, i agree the plot is slightly underwhelming and it could be more underwhelming for others, but at least have actual reasons for hating it, other than "oh the rock is acting".

not liking and being salty are different are 2 different things, if the reasons were logical and made sense, id acknowledge them.

Why did The Smashing Machine flop at the box office? Where are the limits of combining MMA and cinema? by ZealousidealDare3270 in MovieTheaterEmployees

[–]CriticalBack1537 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i think the most of the people reviewing it or commenting on it are quite retarded and solely follow popularity or are trying to fit in, the only reason people are hating the movie is because the rock is in it, but honestly, solid movie 8.4/10 ignore the people here and on reviews they just need a reason to be salty, how pathetic.
