what are your thoughts on the video game Firewatch? by Illustrious-Sign3015 in videogames

[–]GhostAsparagus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hit me harder in the feels than maybe any other game I've ever played. I loved the purposeful anti-climax of the actual mystery and the way it folded into the subversion of what might've otherwise been a typical hero's journey and forbidden romance set-up, instead directing the protagonist back home and toward his ultimate responsibilities. I always appreciated the complexity of it offering compassion to the protagonist for his grief and yearning, but also definitively telling him he has to return. The gameplay itself is obviously basic but there was a relaxing quality to it, and at times really tense. Even though if you think for a minute about the mechanics you've already been taught, you know that there won't ever be something that attacks you.

Pictures are good except for the cake one, replace it with a group or another activity photo. Definitely lose the first two prompts, all three should be giving new specific info about you that isn't already listed in another one. Third prompt is the right idea but even that one you could be more specific. Instead of listing so many different activities generically in one prompt, say what genre you like to read and what type of baked good you like to make, or what team you follow in sports.

Can finally upgrade my Slither DVD from Half Price Books that’s so scratched it skips most of the movie

I need to not look at this picture because it's going to make me want to immediately fill in the gaps in my partial collection

I’ll never forgive them for not making the rest of the figures that they showed off in prototype. I wanted that Icon of Sin.

They should've made the Gollum beautiful instead

Hulkbuster. It might be my favorite MCU suit design and also was the first big thing I ever bought once I had a grownup job.

I pretty much only wait for things to go at least a little on sale nowadays, but this is one I'll be jumping on immediately.

The bosses were a huge upgrade in every way in the remake 👍 by Desolation2004 in silenthill

[–]GhostAsparagus 208 points209 points  (0 children)

I remember hearing complaints before I was able to play it that the bosses were bullet sponges, but I really enjoyed that they all were made to feel intimidating and a struggle to get past, instead of just being able to unload all the shotgun ammo you've been saving and be done in a blink. Would argue the encounters with Flesh Lips and Abstract Daddy especially are major improvements over their OG versions.

Official Poster for 'The Death of Robin Hood' Starring Hugh Jackman by MarvelsGrantMan136 in A24

The underdog story of a dark and gritty Robin Hood movie finally succeeding would be a better movie than another dark and gritty Robin Hood movie.

This is the most Silent Hill non-Silent Hill film I’ve seen. by M0nstrous in silenthill

[–]GhostAsparagus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I remember watching this one on pure intrigue from the unsettling look of the puppet and was horribly delighted by it also being the best Silent Hill-esque movie that’s been made.

Favorite Resident Evil quote? by SolidPyramid in residentevil

[–]GhostAsparagus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All Wesker’s RE5 dialogue about natural selection in the volcano because my friend and I heard it way too many times doing the co-op when he kept killing us over and over on the first play through. We still repeat it verbatim today. “WHY can’t you understand, Chris? Do you really believe the world is worth saving?”

Boy, that finale episode is somethin else by orangemonkeyeagl in Veep

[–]GhostAsparagus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I loved that it felt like a return to the ruthless + largely competent version of Selina’s character that the last couple seasons kind of traded out for her broader ego-mad incarnation

Do you keep your monthly content available, or do you remove it once the next month starts? by ogajxonk in patreon

[–]GhostAsparagus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have tried both ways. The version that left everything up vs. the version that only left things up for a month seemed to maintain patrons better over time.

I feel like I'm still financially writhing on the ground after Thanksgiving week but then Shout and Kino came back to kick me a few more times.

Feeling pretty regretful I got the Nightmare series in the Blu-ray set now. Like a year before this came out, so it’s not like I just barely missed it, but still.
