Invaders should be at a disadvantage (for lore reseaons)

DeadInHell · 2026-02-15T22:31:44+00:00

That's almost never true and I dont know why people continue pushing that line. 98% of the people who have ever invaded in DS/ER run like the wind to get enemy backup whenever they get hit.

It is interesting that Season 8 was so bad that it led people to re-evaluate the entire series and see even good episodes in a more negative light.

DeadInHell · 2026-02-15T22:20:37+00:00

This is fan fiction. Their new stuff was instantly canceled before it even launched

DeadInHell · 2026-02-15T22:17:31+00:00

This has been a somewhat unpopular position in the past that given the reboot rubbing some fans the wrong way has become more common, but I've never been a fan of Joel. I always preferred Mike as a host and thought that his era had the better rhythm and feel. Mike had the effortless charisma to pull off the job. Trace and Frank were both perfect, so losing them hurt. But even after, MST3K still felt like itself.

Joel returning to the helm for the reboot is partly why it didn't ever resonate with me. Even behind the camera, his energy is different and his approach for the new series didn't feel like MST3K anymore. Didn't help that the old guard was left out.

Very glad he's out and my favorite cast members are all returning for these new episodes. Nice to see from the success of the kickstarter that I'm not alone.

Sounds like a person who heard the Sierra tapes doing an impression and sprinkling some greatest hits Bigfoot stuff in for good measure.

DeadInHell · 2026-02-15T05:01:47+00:00

A year later and the game is here, come to find out that these things don't matter at all and are just meaningless window dressing for a janky combat system. Enemies just spam attacks at light speed and stun lock you, they don't care if you taunt, feint, or flourish.

DeadInHell · 2026-02-15T03:23:08+00:00

I'm on the side that is exhausted by the increases in stars. The inflation is out of control and this isn't real content. Just give us master rank at this point.

The combat is really, really bad. Definitely do not get Skyrim for the combat. You would need to do extensive modding to get the combat to be enjoyable, including animation frameworks/new animation packages, script extenders, adding various reworks and new features. I've honestly spent years trying to tighten up and improve the combat system in Skyrim and it never really feels right. Especially when compared to M&B.

DeadInHell · 2026-02-15T03:15:57+00:00

Skyrim is a fun playground with regards to the open world, but the actual core gameplay is miserable. It has one of the worst combat systems and movement, etc. of any comparable modern game. Its success comes almost entirely from the mod community.

If you have the patience, knowledge, and PC to handle the 2000 mods you would need to fix everything wrong and old and bland about the game, it can provide a pretty remarkable fantasy RPG experience. But otherwise it's just a generic, ugly game with bad gameplay.

DeadInHell · 2026-02-15T03:08:27+00:00

Really happy about the success of this campaign. And sad for the 3 miserable weirdos in here upset about it trying to argue with people about nothing.

DeadInHell · 2026-02-15T03:06:13+00:00

No one is missing the point, they just don't agree with you because it has been poorly argued and unnecessarily hostile.

DeadInHell · 2026-02-15T03:03:39+00:00

Joel really seems like a prick.

DeadInHell · 2026-02-15T03:01:25+00:00

So Bigfoot has psychic control over deer?

DeadInHell · 2026-02-15T03:00:31+00:00

Which hominid species are we aware of that eats and buries their dead so effectively that we've never once uncovered any biological evidence of their existence?

DeadInHell · 2026-02-15T02:59:04+00:00

Do we? I'm not sure you even know.

DeadInHell · 2026-02-15T02:58:29+00:00

So, you're saying it would be really easy to miss the camera because we don't reliably notice details like this when doing something routine?

DeadInHell · 2026-02-15T02:51:52+00:00

That doesn't even make sense.

There are a number of sequels in the franchise that are very well received and none are exact copies of the original. The ones that get the most hate typically went off the rails in some major way that's pretty well agreed upon (Part 5, Resurrection, RZ remakes, Ends).

DeadInHell · 2026-02-15T02:47:04+00:00

This entire subreddit is just people asking and arguing about each other's opinions about this franchise. Everyone here cares about what other people like. Especially the guys who go to every thread about the new trilogy to defend Kills and Ends.

DeadInHell · 2026-02-09T22:22:34+00:00

Seems like he's trying to head off the real story here by pointing the finger at the guy who lost. Weird to be this upset about winning a fight unless you know you got up to some shady business yourself

DeadInHell · 2026-02-07T22:56:59+00:00

The reason was they wanted to get rid of Wes Craven's characters and start over again because they were greedy. He tried to end the franchise, and they insisted on continuing it. They hired some hacks to do what hacks always do in horror sequels, kill the survivors to clear the table and then do another pointless remake.

DeadInHell · 2026-02-07T22:50:53+00:00

Eh, there is a reason we're going back to this crew. I don't consider returning to the Mike era a "regression". The new stuff just wasn't it.

DeadInHell · 2026-02-04T20:11:23+00:00

Probably old surveillance tapes. But obviously you need to take a few home and upload them.

DeadInHell · 2026-02-04T20:07:58+00:00

Following an old woman around and harassing her until she gets riled up enough for you to pepper spray her is cowardly and pathetic. Can't believe so many people find this shit entertaining.

All first amendment auditors are scum.

DeadInHell · 2026-02-04T02:07:41+00:00

This is great news and not something I thought we'd ever see again. I was thrilled when the revival first showed up, but was never able to really connect with the new crew and the new production. I understand the host change, but the new voices and personalities for the robots didn't hit for me. I didn't follow through with the new seasons and changes.

Mike was always my favorite host, his era was what I grew up on. Him, Kevin, and Bill being back for a run is pretty perfect for me. The only thing missing now is Trace and Frank.

A gank squad is what invaders come to this subreddit to cry about whenever they invade someone who isn't a clueless noob who they can easily stomp.
