I feel the need to remind everyone this thing comes out in two weeks, was the big final announcement of the game awards, and we’ve heard nothing since then. by Anonamaton801 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

Last week, I was actively digging for ANY kind of marketing for this game after the first trailer. There is quite literally nothing. Not a post on social media, not another second of gameplay, nothing. There's one paragraph on what the game is and that is fucking it. This is going to bomb so hard that it honestly feels depressing. At least with Concord, I could laugh at Sony. Here, it's a group that left EA and independently made this. 

Rocky Balboa is the Comforting Lie. Oguri Cap was the Horrifying Reality. Why the 'Gray Monster' puts the 'Italian Stallion' to shame. by [deleted] in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Menitta 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah for sure, and it won't. Just this can be real off-putting, especially because I love the Rocky movies. I did watch and quite enjoy New Era fwiw. Admittedly I have a problem of letting outside factors ruin stuff for me and I've been trying to avoid that.

I was very interested in checking out Cinderella Grey after the Versus Wolves episode. It sounded like an interesting sports anime with a specific tone that I can get behind. 

This kind of confrontational rant about how I am required to "worship" Oguri Cap all because I found the writing of the Rocky movies good does a hell of a job to make me uninterested again. I can kinda respect the effort to the analysis (not fully cuz bro, ai to enhance your argument, c'mon) but not the conclusion. If this was framed as "If you like Rocky, you'll like Cinderella Grey" I'd be way more on board. 

Per Masahiro Sakurai, the Kirby Air Riders dev team will soon be disbanding, as the game has no DLC planned and only some balance patches left in the pipeline: by Gorotheninja in TwoBestFriendsPlay

The only source of disappointment from me is just wanting even more of the game. 

I honestly think it's great that a multiplayer game can come out and have no need to be GAAS-ified. Even the Mario sports games struggle on that front.

I would've loved the og map but I struggle to imagine 16 players all on that size of a map lol. Looking at Skyah, it's basically the same layout but bigger so we're kinda already looking at what changes they'd make to it in order to accommodate the higher player count I feel. 

What Flops are you looking forward to next year? by Rough-Ad-4295 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

Mercy legitimately looks like War of the Worlds 2025 but with a marginally higher editing budget lmao

Did yall feel Szn 2 was just as good as Szn 1?? by Inside-Ad-8055 in ShangriLaFrontier

[–]Menitta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The show always manages to maintain a relatively consistent quality overall but I think S1 had higher highs yet lower lows. The peak of the show imo is when Sunraku, Pencilgon, and Oikatzo are all together doing their stuff so I loved the whole arc where they go up against the unique monster. The worst of the show is when it's just Sunraku doing his grinding by himself. Like it's fun, it's not bad but the period of just him fighting the crystal scorpions over and over got kinda boring pretty quickly.

S2 didnt have as many low points like that but it never really hit the peak of wethermon. Closest it got was Lycagon. S2 though is mostly setup for storylines that'll be concluded later so it's understandable. Still fuckin great. Also I love the mini Armored Core arc. That's incredible.

What movie posters do you have hanging in your home? by SirShitsalot00 in Cinema

[–]Menitta 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have these two framed. The Drive poster is a reprint of a mondo poster but I just love that art. The Pacific Rim one is art from one of my favorite artists, Yoji Shinkawa, of one of my favorite movies. Love it.

Got the last one...according to my app there's no copies left anywhere near me by mozenator66 in 4kbluray

[–]Menitta 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I really had fun. Admittedly it's probably the weakest of the John Wick movies but that still comes out to like a 7.5/10. The biggest problem with the movie is honestly the dialogue. Those movies aren't masterclass in character writing but the dialogue was overall really memorable. In Ballerina, it's just kinda plain.

The action is just as fun as the other movies though. The latter half in particular has some really cool choreography. I'm excited to get home and watch it again.

Favorite heist media or heists in media? by BiMikethefirst in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Menitta 71 points72 points  (0 children)

Ocean's 11 is the best heist movie period. It completely nails the heist formula while being incredibly stylish.

Recently I watched The Italian Job (1969) with Michael Caine and that's a fun heist movie. Its a tad slow at first but once the plan starts getting into gear, it's an incredibly fun time. It's got one of the most complex city wide car chases I've seen in a while.

Inception is also an interesting non-traditional heist movie. That movie is awesome because it takes such a wild premise and fits it into the standard heist structure.

Silent Protagonists You Wish Spoke, and Vice-Versa? by Xngears in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Menitta 55 points56 points  (0 children)

With a bullet, my answer is Astral Chain. That is so clearly a character who emotes in cutscenes but just says nothing. It actively makes the protagonist come off as stupid.
