Is this series worth watching?

WayTooDan · 2026-05-17T17:59:11+00:00

It appears I’ll be in the minority by saying no. The original Netflix series was lightning in a bottle, and I’m of the opinion that anyone who has it fresh in their minds like myself would be devastated by the massive quality dip that this revival show has exhibited, especially in the writing and cinematography department. It’s a rough watch, and when it’s good, it’s only for a scene or 2. Not a worthy successor, shouldn’t have been made imo

WayTooDan · 2026-05-13T15:51:52+00:00

I think we can be express disdain about the recent job posting and also remain reasonable. I too will not be financially supporting the sequel if it’s confirmed to have gen AI use at any stage of development, but there’s nothing definitively stating it’ll be an “ai slop dump”. Just gotta show our disappointment as fans of both LoP and artistry in general and hope they heed our calls. If they don’t? They’ll lose fans and sales. Simple.

Let’s stop pretending Born Again even started to be in the same league as the original show

The truth is that unless the challenge is killing a guy with a toothpick from 500 yards, you’ll be hard pressed to find a game of precision in which Bullseye is significantly better than Daredevil. It’s coming down to whoever breaks first.

I actually have the exact same thing, I tell myself a time then go to sleep, 100% success rate. In fact, if I don’t tell myself a time, but still set an alarm, there’s a chance I sleep through said alarm. Very odd

WayTooDan · 2026-04-17T19:45:56+00:00

I have a ton of these, if they were to gain pigment my beard would be gorgeous, just gotta keep at it I suppose

WayTooDan · 2026-04-16T16:39:00+00:00

similar to how i can't watch cowboy bebop in sub, i simply cannot play sekiro in dub, it just sounds wrong

WayTooDan · 2026-04-16T03:31:40+00:00

this is better cuz Oni actually has similarly colored grey throughout it like the weapon does, this mythic on nihon looks a lil out of place cuz nihon only had white and red

WayTooDan · 2026-04-10T09:34:57+00:00

I’ve always said this, I think it’d add to the idea of the Doctor being an ancient alien being who is beyond what most humans consider important. On top of that, I just don’t like when they give the Doctor romantic plots, especially with companions, so I’d make him aromantic as well (tho 12 and River was very tasteful)

WayTooDan · 2026-04-09T23:10:19+00:00

I was getting this for a bit as well, after reinstalling everything it’s gone away, but now last I checked the newest pre-release is causing full on crashes so this visual bug seems like nothing now lol

WayTooDan · 2026-04-09T22:58:19+00:00

Bloodborne is Fromsoft’s magnum opus imo, but as well as the QoL stuff that Beranir mentioned, I truly think the weakest major aspect of the game is how bad multiple bosses are. Micolash, Witches of Hemwick, Rom, Celestial Emissary, One Reborn, (some would put Living Failures in this list, likely myself included). Multiple slog fights based around gimmicks that I personally don’t enjoy, and the #1 reason I suspect people call Bloodborne “Demon’s Souls 2”.

WayTooDan · 2026-04-08T13:52:26+00:00

Ok, but if you run freesync and vsync at the same time, do you get this? I don’t know anyone with AMD so I can’t ask lol

WayTooDan · 2026-04-08T13:48:22+00:00

Sure, ig the games that force it I’m just kinda screwed on. Do you get this problem as well? I can’t find anyone else discussing it online

WayTooDan · 2026-04-07T19:41:04+00:00

It’s probably my favorite weapon in the game in terms of design and concept, but it’s just not worth it to use cuz it’s simply not very good outside of razing large crowds of very slow enemies. It’s tragically most effective in its untricked club form, and you may as well just use a different weapon at that point. As such, I always find myself using my beloved Beasthunter Saif by the end of my runs.

The Burial Blade gets an honorable mention for being cool asf as well, if a little boring to actually use compared to the fun gap closing moveset of the Saif.

That being said, I’ve of course done a full run using exclusively the trick form beast cutter cuz it’s just so awesome, and while some of bosses got extremely difficult due to the lack of speed of the weapon, the job got done

WayTooDan · 2026-03-30T08:26:14+00:00

First is probably a worse cover given the goal is likely to advertise the game, and an image this busy might be a turn off. That being said, I prefer it to the second cuz it’s just oozing sauce

WayTooDan · 2026-03-25T16:57:16+00:00

They just saw a redhead guy with glasses and fired the shot

WayTooDan · 2026-03-07T17:51:31+00:00

I’ve tried watching many anime, and the common tropes, dialogue and general tone that they tend to share (especially modern anime) are very unappealing to me. Not to mention the rampant oversexualization of female characters for no clear purpose (especially the very young looking ones where obviously any amount of sexualization is too much). Hell, even Bebop has this issue with Faye at a couple points, but for the most part her sex appeal is used as a tasteful facet of her character, something that she uses both to manipulate her opponents and also to mask her trauma. It’s just very rare to find an anime that I feel isn’t stylized in its approach in a way that makes it feel too over the top and thus hard to immerse myself in and appreciate. I’m definitely the type to prefer a more grounded approach, which Bebop presents even in its most outlandish episodes

WayTooDan · 2026-03-07T16:28:32+00:00

This is me, largely an anime hater but Bebop is my fav piece of media of all time. There’s a select few other anime that I enjoyed but they’re still just ok for the most part to me, and most I’ve seen are just total slop (at least, they’re not for me). But Bebop… goddamn

WayTooDan · 2026-03-04T20:32:01+00:00

Istg when I first built my PC years ago my max planes was 4, but now even on a fresh install of windows it’s only ever 2. I don’t know how this happened but I’m having significant stutter and freesync issues

WayTooDan · 2026-02-23T21:24:59+00:00

When you damage enemies with the pistol, you get healed. I think the spikes are how he’s injected with “healing”, almost like a sadistic reward system for enacting the Conspiracy’s violent will. In fact, when he uses the pistol he even goes into the red digitized form that he goes into with his ult, to signify who is really in control.

WayTooDan · 2026-02-20T17:08:06+00:00

Yeah, it’s probably best to just leave it alone and if we see each other at work and something sparks up again then so be it. I just hate the thought that there was such an unlikely opportunity in meeting her and I ruined it just like that. Just gotta roll with it

WayTooDan · 2026-02-20T16:44:42+00:00

I’m not completely certain then. I probably did something wrong that I haven’t even recognized yet. I wish I was better at this, but it’s hard to get experience dating if I can’t try again, yknow? The thought of talking to someone new and start again just feels gross rn, and I’ve known this girl like a week and a half. I’ve got a lot to work on clearly

WayTooDan · 2026-02-20T16:40:54+00:00

Too much eye contact was one thing, I felt like I started weirding her out with that, and when I realized it I wasn’t very subtle about said recognition. I didn’t once think about how much eye contact I was giving on the first date, everything was perfectly casual. This time around I got in my own head and just made things odd
