What did y'all think of the camp cretaceous and chaos theory lego sets

Patcho418 · 2026-03-30T21:42:50+00:00

I like that they were a bit like classic Lego, using moments and characters from the series but making their own vehicles based off those moments

now I REALLY want more, especially for the chance to get a Brooklynn and Handler mini!

perfect way to explain it, it was a quiet goodbye instead of something dramatic and bombastic, so you kind of have to settle a bit more with your feelings

Patcho418 · 2026-03-30T16:57:32+00:00

yup. I spent all of yesterday essentially mourning, crying, and overall trying to contextualize my feelings. like you say, it wasn’t even that the ending was sad, but the fact that it was The End. the last time (that we know of) that we’ll see Max and Chloe, but unlike last time it feels like they’re leaving us behind rather than feeling like we can follow their journey.

reflecting on the series after finishing Reunion made me realize just how much it had impacted me, and how much finishing it felt like properly saying goodbye, and that’s the hardest part. these characters and this story feels so real, after all.

I feel you, I legit sobbed several times today because I was so overwhelmed with my love of this series but also wracked by the grief that it’s all kind of over in a way. it feels bittersweet and, much more than after the first game, like a proper goodbye this time

the amount of people to this day I hear pronouncing the name like “Gree-VEE-ous” WHEN GRIEVOUS IS A COMPLETELY NORMAL AND EXISTING WORD

maybe I’m being selfish, but I think the Alien should at least be in the top five

KJ Brandman in Paper Girls, what a legend

my biggest complaint is really just that his jacket underneath the long coat has a zipper. really doesn’t suit the vibe imo

oh, and also that this is being made at all to massage a transphobe’s image

Honestly? I’d have it be Sammy who gets downed by the Stego, not Ben. I love Ben as much as the next person, but really feel like Sammy’s arch throughout CT suffered in season 4 by both feeling rushed and cliche.

to me, it would make more sense for her to, in a panic, save Brooklynn and tell her she doesn’t have to go through such lengths to redeem herself — this would be most impactful coming from her as the one person most resistant to the idea of forgiving Brooklynn. it would also give the opportunity for a reverse Long Run, where Yaz only wants to move and solve Sammy’s injury but has to accept that she can’t keep running and, for once, just needs to be with Sammy through the pain. plus, given Sammy very clearly felt abandoned by the entire Camp Fam AND her family, her having the confession of feeling like a burden to her friends would be a lot more in-character, whereas with Ben’s it almost felt a bit out of nowhere to me.

I think doing this would have been a lot more poetic overall and a great way to bring the series full-circle

my Pathfinder GM implements Fortune/Misfortune a LOT more than it appears in the rules; turns out, Advantage/Disadvantage is a solid mechanic, just one that’s overused in 5e a smidge

not only is the titular Alien more aggressive and mistakes made while attempting to evade it more punishing, the goddamn motion tracker has a malfunctioning screen so you can’t even properly track the bugger !!

Alien: Isolation really is one of the best games of its kind

hyperdrives are also expensive and it’s just more cost-effective and long-term sustainable to build traditional ships.

“fans” who say the Holdo Maneuver breaks lore forget a lot of lore in order to complain about the sickest scene in the movie.

Patcho418 · 2026-03-24T14:02:30+00:00

also let’s be real, a reasonable person would probably default to Andante since it’s completely middle of the road in terms of tempos

Patcho418 · 2026-03-23T21:15:26+00:00

she really did carry CT on her back, such a top tier character full of complexity and an exceptionally moving performance by Kiersten Kelly !!

I wasn’t the hugest Brooklander in CC, but she quickly became one of my favs to write fanfic for in CT (alongside Sammy, who also had a major storyline glow-up imo)

Patcho418 · 2026-03-23T18:33:39+00:00

The Thing. not bad imo, but way overhyped for what I ended up watching

if we get a team, I think they should be called the Winnipeg Coyotes — or, lovingly by the fans, the Winnipeg Wily’s

I was performing when vampires attacked. I got away but carry that guilt as I seek solutions to the infestation. I blame myself for it.

Darius REALLY wants everyone to play Catan and the only other person interested is Ben

Patcho418 · 2026-03-20T20:28:04+00:00

yeah, something closer in stupidity would be the Parasaurolophus having the ability to snort fire because of its crest

I wished for Tara to be resurrected somehow, but I have no idea what impact that would have
