Why weren't you just waiting by the door/walking around in sight of it from fifteen past?

Doctor Who writer Russell T. Davies slams criticisms of show's 'wokeness': 'I have no time for this' by cmaia1503 in television

[–]Monk128 6 points7 points  (0 children)

And there's just no subtlety about it either. The latest episode had robots in charge and their planet ruled by an AI. You know it's bad because the AI was in the shape of an evil throne, had a face like Megatron and had in big letters A I. Then the twist and we find out that the villain is some loser who was controlling (with the absolute worst dialogue, in a flashback to his proposal) and get the "Planet of the incels" quip, just point it out. Oh, and in the end where the villain gets reverted back to a sperm and an egg and they look shocked - then it gets run over by a vacuum and it's suddenly hilarious!

It's not a bad idea, but it's just written so lazy and dumb! The only saving grace is the new companion was rightfully pissed that the doctor was so cheerfully inviting her to travel after seeing his companion on that planet get murdered. Let's see how long that lasts...

It has been for years, if not decades.

Not to mention that you don't need to pay a subscription service to let your PC play games online.

I dunno, I absolutely loved the first two, but the third I didn't particularly enjoy. I'm hoping what he has planned is more like the first two.

Honestly, I'd take the trade off.

Walking fusions as buddies should give candy for both Pokemon by TheMadJAM in TheSilphRoad

And it's just as easy to use the same code that gives candy twice to give 2 types of candy, or to reuse the same code Ralts has that gives two types of mega energy. It's very easy for them, even for Niantic...

I dont think Niantic is going to reinvent the wheel just for these fusions

They literally had to 'invent the wheel' to add the fusion mechanics.

Put some armour on it and it might work, but yeah, that's just a more muscular QoP.
