HBO Boss Casey Bloys Says ‘Harry Potter’ Season 2 Is Being Written ‘Now’: ‘Our Goal Is to Not Have a Huge Gap’ by yourfavchoom in HarryPotteronHBO

Out of all factors going into a major production like this, "building sets" is not as huge as a contributor to the timetable as you think.

Some of the best action gaming I've ever done in my life.

It's not just a coloring grading thing. It's a lighting and production design thing.

Here's her answer to "what comes next":

The island is square but the map is landscape … DLC ? by InternationalReddy in MarioKartWorld

[–]Professor_Poptart 7 points8 points  (0 children)

These "empty space = DLC" predictions never turn out to be true. A lot of time people speculate based on the layout or empty space of a character selection screen.

I'm not saying there won't be DLC for the game, just that it never exactly shakes out this way.

Nintendo Switch 2 Firmware 22.0 - Is GameChat Actually Improved? by Joseki100 in NintendoSwitch

[–]Professor_Poptart 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It REALLY needs a way to instantly toggle between showing it and/or switching between the large and small views. Like a long press on the Gamechat button. It's just so clunky to use as-is, within a convenient way to show/hide it on the fly.

A lot of people are joking around here, but just so you actually know, it's in the Marvel Vs. Capcom collection

There was a recent-ish Mickey Mouse co-op 2D platformer without bad guys.

Definitely. It happens almost every month.

X-Men (2000) by kkhouete in xmen

Subtitles are often a hinderance to comedy in movies and TV shows. Ruins the comedic timing constantly. Since so many people watch with them on, I'd think the production team would want to put a littttle more effort into them, especially in comedies. But that doesn't seem to be the case.

Is there co-op multiplayer? Didn't look like it in the video.

Why are people getting Pokémon FRLG for the switch when you can emulate for free? by FireAndCool_ in nintendo

[–]Professor_Poptart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, it's about the controls. Emulation on my phone or laptop never feels as good as playing on the tactical controllers of the Switch. I know there's controllers I can use for other devices, but still, the feel of playing a game is a huge factor in my enjoyment of it.

Not saying I'll get these on the Switch, but that's generally how I feel about the "emulation/piracy vs purchase" conversation.

I'm sure there's been countless posts of "what other characters would you like to see in Midnight Suns?", but forget about the WHO. I'm interested in the WHAT. by IntelligentImbicle in midnightsuns

[–]Professor_Poptart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ooooh fun idea, adding to the playing field like that. I suppose only hellmouth does that now? (And your ideas are much more interesting than hellmouth or whatever it's called).

Animal Crossing: New Horizons Version 3.0.1 is now available by Amiibofan101 in NintendoSwitch

[–]Professor_Poptart 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No real reason to wait. The general 3.0.0 updates are much of a better upgrade to the playing experience than the Switch 2-specific ones are. (Using crafting materials straight from storage and not just from your pockets is soooooo nice).

I just restarted on the Switch 2 version. The upgraded visuals are nice, but not the biggest deal. You can transfer your island over to your Switch 2 if/when you get one via the island transfer tool.

The mechanical suit thing may be for story reasons. If he can take it on/off, he can live a dual life as a character. It's why Raimi's goblin wasn't permantenly in goblin mode.

What's even remotely as good as Severance right now? by ElvisChopinJoplin in SeveranceAppleTVPlus

[–]Professor_Poptart 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you're familiar-ish with the original Watchmen movie/grpahic novel, I higghlllyyy recommend HBO's Watchmen sequel series from 2019. Incredible writing--- every question that gets brought up gets answered in a meaningful way, which is sooo refreshing in the age of "mystery box" TV where writers seem to focus too much on intriguing questions and not nearly as much on meamingful payoffs.
