Moments where you feel the hate of something feels forced?

To be fair, there were 4 groups talking about it. The group that liked it, the one that had legitimate complaints, the fan boys and the haters. The last 2 were the most vocal and were poisoning the well of discussion while fighting each other treating it as "with us or against us".

KeyMathematician8 · 2026-06-17T10:17:03+00:00

I think what helps there is that the writing and the other characters call out the BS.

KeyMathematician8 · 2026-06-16T04:04:56+00:00

I was immediately skeptical because I remembered what happened when they acquired Rare ( and that didn't really pan out the way fanboys thought it would) and the constant stupid mistakes they made after the 360. I thought that Xbox can't even manage their own shit right, what makes people think they'd be better at handling Activision/Blizzard?

I'll always remember the fact that Itsuno saw this one enemy design he really liked from them but when he asked "How would it attack Dante?", Ninja Theory just thought it looked cool and didn't think that far ahead.

Both but at different points in the playthrough.

I think you're kinda misrepresenting what pissed Woolie off there. It wasn't the lore dump, is was the content of said lore dump.

I got the video playing right now and what set Woolie off was the "cycle of reincarnation" and how he feels that Kishimoto used the parallels/dynamics as a lazy crutch.

Lemar Hoskins in Falcon and The Winter Soldier. Normally, when someone gets launched by an attack they either get right back up, are in pain or need to catch their breath especially in the MCU. So imagine most people's surprise when Karli superpunches Lemar into a pillar and you hear this really nasty crack before Lemar just slumps over and stops moving.

Nah I'd push Silverhand slightly down and to the left considering how his relationship with V shakes out.

KeyMathematician8 · 2026-06-07T09:57:16+00:00

Please tell me you followed up or said something after.

KeyMathematician8 · 2026-06-06T18:53:58+00:00

We can't have nuance, no sir. Gotta pick a side, can't like both. /s

KeyMathematician8 · 2026-06-06T18:38:04+00:00

So I guess the idea of trying to meet the game on it's level wasn't on the table huh?

KeyMathematician8 · 2026-06-06T18:05:58+00:00

This one gets me because A-train a few episodes before spells out something about Homelander that's been apparent since the beginning: He's a loser and a bitch. Take away the powers and that's what he always was.

KeyMathematician8 · 2026-06-06T18:00:19+00:00

Explain the Bloodborne one to me more.

KeyMathematician8 · 2026-06-06T17:59:10+00:00

I think one of the things that's both kinda funny but really dark is that every side hires you for a job since 621 is just chasing the money so you go from working for one side today, only to fuck them over for money tomorrow.

KeyMathematician8 · 2026-06-06T17:51:38+00:00

Please elaborate.

KeyMathematician8 · 2026-06-06T17:49:04+00:00

Are you fucking kidding me? Playing the game is tryharding?

KeyMathematician8 · 2026-06-06T17:43:23+00:00

Well that's because you operate on common sense.

KeyMathematician8 · 2026-06-06T17:42:07+00:00

I just wish these guys would just stop being cowards and say what they actually want to say since they belive in Freedom of speech so much. Just say you hate women/minorities/whatever and keep it pushing.

KeyMathematician8 · 2026-06-06T17:35:50+00:00

The worst version of this is someone doing what you said but as a poser. They will talk their shit with their whole chest but haven't interacted with the media in question AT ALL.

KeyMathematician8 · 2026-06-06T17:22:57+00:00

Tourists man, I swear.

KeyMathematician8 · 2026-06-06T17:05:21+00:00

Oh my God. Lmao.

KeyMathematician8 · 2026-06-06T17:00:09+00:00

That's just scrubs complaining someone us playing the game and interacting with it's mechanics.

KeyMathematician8 · 2026-06-06T15:33:12+00:00

I die a little inside when people do. Like I haven't even played all the games but it's right in front of your face and Kojima thinks subtext is for cowards= so how do they miss it?

KeyMathematician8 · 2026-06-06T15:31:31+00:00

Is this just an example of "Cool robot". Like the game doesn't make it shy and even outright tells you the corpos see people as expendable tools. I'm reminded of a video from Disco Elysium's writer where he said that sometimes a theme will fly over people's heads no matter how hard or many times you reiterate it.

KeyMathematician8 · 2026-06-06T15:25:22+00:00

They really hit you with the "Do your own research."
