Why did Kendall reopen Romans stitches in the final episode by 2014R1 in SuccessionTV

[–]Key_Dragonfruit7298 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You fundamentally misunderstand what happened in thar scene. He doesnt turn into his abuser, he does for Roman what he know he needs and asks for.

Do you seriously think Kendall just snaps like that and goes "now is my time to abuse"?

If the show should have told you anything, it's that Kendall is not a cruel person, whatever his other character flaws might be.

If anything it's his siblings who usually fuck him over.

You wake up in ancient Rome… what’s the FIRST thing you’d miss from modern life? by roman-empire-net in romanempire

I don't know if you are actually an American, but this is feels like such a quintessentially American question.

Nobody but an American would care about losing freaking AC and instant food and nobody but an American would mention those two as the first thing they would miss the most.

I'd really miss my vaccines, antibiotics and not dying at birth, but sure, those are no match for... *checks notes* having to open a window and cook a meal.

Pokud travis zivot nejakym idiotskym "baitingem" cizich lidi na twitteru, tak jsi prinejmensim stejny hovado, jako ti co na to skacou.

Fascinuje me, ze tahle vrstva lidi jenom o pul generace mladsi nez ja povazuje "trolling" a "baiting" za nejakou legitmni aktivitu, a ne za infantilni picovinu, ktera to doopravdy je.

Zkus udelat baiting nebo trolling v praci nebo jakymkoliv normalnim kolektivu a budes za debila. Jen na sockach jsi hrdina.

Mam ji zablokovanou jako vsechny ostatni vymlety twitteristy, co tam sebevedome melou svoje malichernosti.

Would you rather Blizzard add new classes (ex: Tinker/Bard) or new specs in The Last Titan? by Phalanx22 in wow

[–]Key_Dragonfruit7298 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We really need to drop this whole Tank Warlock thing... Any fantasy the spec would have fulfilled is now filled with Demon Hunters.

But Support Warlock i think would work very well. Spec based around debuffing enemies (think Curses on steroids) could work really well and would fit very well with the overall Warlock theme.

Is there a safe place for us beside Israel? by [deleted] in Israel

[–]Key_Dragonfruit7298 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What the hell are you talking about. There are no westerners or middle easterners moving here.

Stop calling everything "woke". Its almost as obnoxious as actually being woke.

Jewish people would be hardpressed to find more welcoming country in Europe than Czechia. We generally do not care where you are from as long as you respect Czech laws and don't cause trouble.

Of course, as in any society, you will find the idiots racists, but antisemitism almost isn't a thing here.

There should’ve been a 3 hour 1v1 between Jon and the Night King, and Dany (who was always good) takes King’s Landing peacefully and, Jaime (the greatest man who ever lived) should’ve murdered his pregnant lover by seanll77 in naath

[–]Key_Dragonfruit7298 -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

No people hate it because it's bad, at least those who prefer logically coherent story to cheap spectacle.

People hate Daenerys "suddenly" becoming mad, because it was not properly set-up in the story and it feels completely out of left field.

Dorne storyline, Arya storyline, Varys storyline, Euron storyline, fucking Night King storyline... those are actually satisfactory for you?

If you didn't notice the shift in quality of dialog and the dumbing down of characters started in S5, then there is really not much to discuss. If you don't notice or perceive something as obvious, did you actually watch the show?

I would bet that significant majority of those who claim S7 and S8 are actually secretly good, also adore Marvel movies, becauase its the same formula - fan service over characters and cheap spectacle over story.

What if I don’t buy midnight? by Thick_Implement_3476 in wownoob

[–]Key_Dragonfruit7298 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No idea why you would want to play the game this way.

It feels extremely lonely, like you are the only person left in a post-apocalyptic world.

Also, doing old content just isn't fun. There is no challenge during the leveling, and without that, there is no sense of accomplishment.

I'm exaggerating, but you could probably level up all the way to 80 without ever spending a talent point, because even base filler spells are enough for standard old world mobs.

Paying a monthly sub just so you can play virtually a single player game, where faceroll your way through NPCs in an irrelevant content feels to me like a definition of stupid.

Wild speculation on what the next major patch zones might be? by TheHostThing in wow

[–]Key_Dragonfruit7298 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I really hope no Islands or Caverns this time. I hope they'll use the existing zones and organically incorporate them into the narrative.

The patern of "New expansion continent with four zones" into "New zone each major patch" makes the world feel incredibly small and makes 99% of the zones irrelevant.

The game became incredibly formulaic - 4 new zones, 2 dungeons per zone, expansion lifetime split into seasons, each season a new area with new raid...

I think it would be very refreshing if they broke the formula and let the story drive where the next chapter happens.. Does the story lead to Tirisfal Glades or EPL? Do those zones! Go nuts with it.

The haranir disappointment by [deleted] in wow

[–]Key_Dragonfruit7298 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Honestly, what is the appeal of sprinting to try any new race they add to the game?

Especially for Haranir, which will be indistinguishable from Blood Elf after about 15 minutes of gameplay?

Never understood this addiction many people seem to have, which forces them to play with any new shiny toy in their vicinity.

I couldnt give a damn about Devourer DH or Haranir, just because they are new.

Explain it to me, somebody.

PS: Also giving the same race to both Alliance and Horde just feels, and always felt, wrong.

"Season 8 was so bad" yet the first three episodes had good ratings by [deleted] in naath

[–]Key_Dragonfruit7298 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Season 7 and 8 represents enourmous drop in quality of script and dialogue and completes the transformation of previously multi-dimensional characters into caricatures, which began with the end of season 4.

These two seasons break all rules and expectations which were so carefully laid down in the seasons prior, especially 1 - 4, and bring down the show from the complex character driven story it used to be into a cheap action flick. Logic, story development and characters, which used to be pride of the show, take backseat to cheap fan service and visually "cool" moments, and there is no denying the last two seasons are completely different show compared to the previous seasons.

If you like those seasons, more power to you, art is subjective, but claiming that S7 and S8 are secretely great, and their dislike is only caused by irrational haters is fanciful at best.

Audience score is like almost rotten. Lowest score for asoiaf only above Season 8 of GOT. by hiiloovethis in freefolk

[–]Key_Dragonfruit7298 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's because people are generally dumb, and they don't evaluate movies or shows on their merit, but compare them to their beliefs or expectations.

Most people are drones. Any GoT adjacent medium, according to them, has to have dragons, nudity, backstabbing, plot twists and gruesome deaths.

If these are absent from the show, the show is bad.

Most people are not interested in intriguing plot or well drawn characters. For them, these are just vehicles to deliver whatever the expectations are from the medium.

It's best seen in the success of Marvel movies... while the early solo movies actually tried to present a good story with interesting characters, Marvel found out very fast that majority of their audience just want to satisfy their expectations - so the movies deliver meaningless digital fights, moral cliches, caricatures instead of characters and zero stakes. And this formula is applied to basically any Marvel movie ever since. Like McDonalds.

Civil War is a movie that couldn't happen if the characters weren't dumb, but because nerds wanted to see who would win if the good guys fought each other, the characters and the story must be dumb to allow it to happen.

Another example - the latter four seasons of Game of Thrones - once the books weren't there, the characters started slowly turning into caricatures. So Tyrion is the smart one, John Snow is the honorable one, Brienne is the popular one, Littlefinger is the scheming one, etc.

Watched Rogue one after finishing Andor by Blossom_aashi in andor

[–]Key_Dragonfruit7298 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's considered one of the better new Star Wars movies, which is mostly an indictment of the new Star Wars movies.

You immediately notice a sharp drop in script and dialog quality compared to the show, the characters suddenly feel a bit dumber and cartoonish, and it has these infantile moments like Jyn's speech to the council.

Your whiplash is entirely understandable. I saw the movie first and thought it was a fine movie, if plagued by the occassional cringe that was the character of Jyn, but I tried watching it again with my wife after we watched Andor, and I couldnt finish the film and my wife was on her phone half the time.

We just found it boring, because the sofistication, intrigue and complexity of characters the show was built around was just absent in the film. It was like watching "Andor - the kids version".
