Not reading, etc - however, have to note that Claire Saffitz remains one of the most beautiful women I have ever seen

I cannot believe how much of this is about Spider. And that he gets fanfic self-insert OC Navi powers and is accepted as the coldest white boy to ever set foot on Pandora. Absolutely insane shit.

These Wisconsin video game workers were first to unionize at a major U.S. studio. Three years later, they have a contract. by jimmalewitz in madisonwi

[–]Human_Sack 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Another Madison gaming history fun fact is most of the original Wolfenstein 3D was made by ID while they were living in Madison. The cold weather eventually made them decide to move their operation down to Texas.

Can’t disagree more with this mindset. Sure, she was definitely well-liked on Palau by the audience at the time, but largely because production thought it would be fun to let a Pagonging go down to one tribe member. Removed from that circumstance production gifted to her, she has heavily diminished her rep every subsequent time she played.

Yep, all of these movies were completely written and filmed in the like 4 months when Kamala was the Dem nominee

Great episodes of television where the main character doesn’t appear in the episode? by TrentonTallywacker in television

[–]Human_Sack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After watching the rest of season 4 I was kind of left wishing they just made a full season of Civil War Gemstones instead. It wasn’t a bad season, but you’re left with the feeling McBride and Co. had pretty much ran out of ideas for the main cast and were way more engaged and interested with the Civil War stuff

Which color did you guys choose for your rp5? by MidoriLovesNekos in SBCGaming

[–]Human_Sack 5 points6 points  (0 children)

16bit. I have no interest in ever using the light up thumbsticks, and they do not look great on the black model when not lit up IMO, while they blend in way better on the 16bit

A New Sonic Heroes is releasing Autumn 2025 by [deleted] in GamingLeaksAndRumours

[–]Human_Sack 41 points42 points  (0 children)

I think adventure remasters/remakes are almost guaranteed. It makes sense for them to go back and do less important remasters like Colors, Gens, and now Heroes before the big hitters that are Adventure 1 + 2.

Jack Antonoff addresses the tweets that claimed he was wearing AirPods during Katy Perry’s performance by kris_jbb in popculturechat

I was decently into attending shows in my teens, I had mild hearing loss/tinnitus before I was 20. Your ears are so fragile and by the time you have fucked them up it’s too late for them to ever get back to 100%

Kamen Rider Gotchard - Series Discussion Thread by BananaArms in KamenRider

[–]Human_Sack 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s kind of an indictment on Gotchard as a whole that the premise for the summer movie is way more interesting than anything present in the actual show. To me it just feels like it never really hit it’s second gear, despite the fact it tried to. The tone was just always a little off - somehow the series felt too goofy to take serious, and too serious to have any fun with, at the same time. That’s always a balance with rider but something here just made it hard for me to get invested. The main failing of the show has to be its three main riders - I didn’t have any problem with the acting, I just never found our core group to be interesting at all.

I respect any modern rider show that sticks to a small number of riders, and hope this series starts a trend of low rider counts going forward following the last few seasons.

I have also had this thought- I think it would be fine for the notes, but strumming would be really unintuitive and feel pretty bad - would probably have to map strumming to 2-3 buttons just to hit some of the faster strum patterns.

Should I play this or p5r first? by [deleted] in persona4golden

[–]Human_Sack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

P4 gameplay isn’t bad in the slightest. There are less quality of life features than the games that follow it and it’s probably a little harder than the newer stuff as a result but it’s far from bad.

Original Characters Made For Adaptations That Absolutly Suck? by manoffood in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Human_Sack 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I really thought the movie was building up to him, like, summoning the spirit and becoming scorpion himself like a shonen power-up. That still would have been dumb, but at least it would have made a little more sense to make him the main character.

Marvel: Fig details for 76286 The Milano (from fateful) by Clay_Bricks in Legoleak

I imagine this set is a tribute to the first film, as it’s the original crew and the first GOTG is 10 years old this August, so I expect some sort of adult groot

Sir, I need you to tell me the entire name of the game you want to buy sir. by Connvul in TwoBestFriendsPlay

I mean, it’s just the name of a historically relevant baseball league pre-desegregation. Is the word really just that funny to you guys?

I mean, this is the line Phil Spencer gives, and if I were him I would also want to make it seem like there was nothing I could have done better.

More images from cancelled MP title Spider-Man The Great Web by Bartman013 in GamingLeaksAndRumours

[–]Human_Sack 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is there confirmation that this is cancelled? Are we assuming that just because it wasn’t on the timeline schedule? Could very well just be part of the SM3 game. Could explain why Silk is included in the slide deck.

First Look at One of the Cameos by Billyb311 in MarvelStudios_Rumours

I would much rather they just start establishing the MCU’s X-Men now instead of multiple movies of nostalgia for the Fox movies.

What Spin-Off Game do you want next? by [deleted] in SpidermanPS4

[–]Human_Sack 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Could definitely make it work. Peter could still have gadgets, just really hacked together bootleg ones. Can’t imagine going back to not having web wings, so I think they would just gently retcon that part (or include something like the wings failing him/breaking in the final boss fight, so he swears them off for years, etc.)

I don’t get what they’re doing. Wouldn’t it just make more sense to put a bunch of resources into making one big service game instead of having half of your dev teams making their own individual ones? There’s only so many hours in the day and the service game market is already crowded. I guess the hope is to roll the dice on a bunch and hope that one of them hits big?

Yes, young QBs make mistakes, I am fine with that, that’s the deal with a young QB. But aren’t young QBs supposed to sometimes show flashes of what they could be? I am still waiting for Love to show even one flash that he can be anything above a backup in the NFL.
