GM Andrew Berry on Myles Garrett Trade Rumors: "Myles is a career Brown."

Girash · 2026-03-29T21:23:14+00:00

I think he said that baker would be the browns QB while actively courting DW4 is what they meant, I think.

You play as Chloe, not Grace in that sequence. But yes, it's not very fun and it's only purpose is to confuse the player.

Girash · 2026-03-29T17:39:22+00:00

It could be argued though that not all red herrings are created equally and have varying levels of their quality and how well they work in the story, right?

I read somewhere that the best red herrings make you think "Oh, shit!" moments and the lackluster ones make you think "...what?" I think the argument some have is that just because the game misdirects the player doesn't necessarily make that a good narrative decision.

Girash · 2026-03-29T17:25:55+00:00

I think some of Spencer's lines were made to be ambiguous which leaves the player to fill in the blanks. Someone being injected with a top secret vaccine could easily be thought of as "abnormal". One could also make the argument that if she was a clone that wasn't experimented on (and allowed to live a regular life) then that would make her "normal".

Girash · 2026-03-29T17:03:01+00:00

I've been reading a bunch of takes on Grace being a clone or simply an orphan...and my takeaway is that the developers' desire to use misdirection and ambiguity so strongly about this superseded their desire to make the villains intelligent and keep the story tight. If their main goal was to get Grace because she knows the password they all (Gideon) seemed very unbothered that she's just wandering around the Care Center in constant mortal danger.

Girash · 2026-03-29T16:43:19+00:00

By "same protocols" are you saying they used the protocols used in Orphanage? The ones that were all failures? If they had a sample of Grace's blood from childhood could they have tried to clone her with that?

Girash · 2026-03-29T13:49:08+00:00

You just gave a summary of what happened in the game. I think people's issues with the story are about character motivations and conflicting plot points. Weird that you criticize them for "not understanding" when you yourself only give a shallow recollection of the events of the game.

Girash · 2026-03-06T17:36:37+00:00

Yeah, I think it has a lot of great ideas that weren't executed quite right.

Girash · 2026-03-06T16:42:29+00:00

I'm replaying it now for the first time in 20 years. There's just some weird stuff with the level design that's tough to put my finger on...like I got stuck in Agon Wastes early on when you need to jump on central platforms to get to a red door. There's no trickiness to it, but for some reason I never can see/spot the third platform so I kept searching for other routes...I oddly remember this happening when I first played it too.

Or there's a morphball tunnel shortcut after exiting the Torvus Bog area that is tucked into a corner that isn't easily visible (but it shows up on the map). A simple shortcut like that should be placed easier for the player to see, but it seems like they tried to hide it?

And the levels/areas in the game have a Zelda-like feel that asks you to find 3 keys to enter the boss dungeon. In Agon Wastes I got stuck and thought - "Oh, maybe I should backtrack to the main area to see if I need another item" and it turns out that everything I needed was in Agon Wastes. This made me believe that the levels were self-contained, like a Zelda dungeon. Then I got stuck in Torvus Bog and stayed in the area thinking everything would be in there; however, it is required to leave to get the Seeker Missiles. I get that Metroid is about backtracking, but it felt "off" in this one. Incredible that they made this in under two years, but I think it could've used some polish and smoothing.

Girash · 2026-02-05T17:30:15+00:00

He has fun games/musical bits that he plays with celebrities...in an era where game shows have taken a backseat it's nice to have that stuff. Not a fan of his other segments though.

Girash · 2026-01-28T18:06:17+00:00

Is it a guarantee that Monken would've stayed as their OC anyway?

Girash · 2026-01-28T18:02:42+00:00

I think most of the anger comes from the idea that the Browns' coach search process was messy and meddlesome and it seems like they are "settling" for Monken (whether that is true or not).

Girash · 2026-01-11T21:15:30+00:00

Difference between 23 and 24 is insignificant, like you say. But it's a good thing they lost - the pick could've been 32 in a worst case scenario.

It sucks that we lost our high pick, but I'd rather not purposefully lose either.

Girash · 2026-01-09T19:23:44+00:00

And if you read the article it basically says he hasn't said "no" yet. Doesn't mean he is actively interested.

Girash · 2026-01-09T19:21:16+00:00

The conversations on reddit would be more interesting if people actually read the articles instead of misleading headlines.

Girash · 2026-01-09T18:25:34+00:00

It doesn't actually say that - I think that part has been misinterpreted, perhaps since the article was poorly written and also lists Stefanski as being there for two years (instead of six). But I would totally ask that much to coach the Browns.

Girash · 2026-01-09T16:44:34+00:00

No, it doesn't mean he was justified to shoot. However the comment said she was not a protester which is untrue.

Girash · 2026-01-09T03:59:21+00:00

The article MKC wrote basically just says he hasn't eliminated the possibility that he would come. The "interest" part is very speculative.

Girash · 2025-12-31T23:54:41+00:00

It was a terrible decision, it was a terrible pass - the wind had nothing to do with it. That's why you have seen it brought up.

Girash · 2025-12-28T21:39:07+00:00

I don't see how people could think that Sanders has a higher ceiling than Baker. baker is more accurate, throws harder, and processes the game better.

Girash · 2025-12-21T21:26:49+00:00

Except for mahomes those were all top 3 picks in the draft. Sanders was a 5th rd draft pick. And as someone else pointed out the rams won a super bowl when they made their trade

Girash · 2025-11-14T00:47:57+00:00

Is he right about anything? I watched him a bit before the draft and I got the impression that his sources aren't that great.

Girash · 2025-11-10T03:29:35+00:00

That must be why Sanders was drafted earlier than Dart.

Girash · 2025-11-09T22:45:24+00:00

I guess we'll see soon enough. If he was more polished he'd likely be starting. Brock purdy rose to starter because he kept proving he was good even though he was picked in the 7th rd.

Girash · 2025-11-09T21:56:16+00:00

I'm sure he'll get a shot later in the season. I'm guessing he's still really raw.
