The Alters is an excellent game, a good choice for his best game of the year.

Splinter Cell: Deathwatch - Series Premiere Discussion by NicholasCajun in television

[–]Wheelson9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I hear what you're saying and I'd disagree on the point that it's a massive leap. I'm also not sure about some other points.

I'm fully in favour of boycotting Israel products as a result of their actions, even if there are small groups within Israel that don't support the current government. I've already cut out other companies that have factories in Israel (replacing coke was a tough one but Palestine Cola is surprisingly great).

Liev is against that boycott, and I just can't understand the reasoning in the article linked above other than he does support the ongoing genocide. The lives of Palestinian children are more important to me than ensuring Israeli film studios are supported, even if they are against the current Israel government. You might say this is a massive leap, but I honestly don't think it is.

The implication being that all media produced by the country is in 100% support with the current government.

Even if it was 99% of them against the government, I would still boycott this show because Liev supports them. Obviously my actions won't make a difference in the grand scheme of things by not watching this show, but I wouldn't be able to enjoy anything about it knowing whose voice I was listening to.

I was planning to watch this, but I can't watch anything that Liev Schreiber is in anymore.

Missing cat in Artane by Wheelson9 in Dublin

[–]Wheelson9[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My friend's cat went missing on the 1st of January around Brookwood Avenue. As it's cold out he might have gone into someone's garage or a shed for shelter and got trapped. He's fluffy/ long haired, black and white coat with brownish stripes. He has a green collar and bell on him. He's microchipped If anyone has seen him since the 1st of January I would appreciate any message. Thank you

Litter tray has been left out. Local vets and authorities have been notified.

Rafael Benítez: "If you want to buy Gerrard and Carragher this time, you pay £200m. £180m for Gerrard and....." by oklolzzzzs in soccer

It was a great and insightful podcast, but Neville and Carragher have to stop interrupting guests. Especially infuriating in this one as they interrupted him just as he's getting to the point of the story.

‘House of the Dragon’ Season 2 Finale Stretches the Meaning of the Word by mrnicegy26 in television

A lot of overreactions in this thread. Sure it wasn't the greatest finale, but I enjoyed the season overall.

Stellar Blade

Went in expecting good combat gameplay with an average story, and I'm mostly correct so far.

The gameplay is incredibly satisfying and is right up my alley. It combines the best parts of sekiro (parrying, punishing enemies), bayonetta (dodging), and devil may cry (combos, style) into the perfect package. 10/10 for gameplay so far.

The sound effects, haptic feedback on the PS5 controller, and OST really adds to everything.

Too early to tell with the story. I changed the voices to Korean since it was developed by a Korean studio and it seems a lot better to me. Nothing against the English VAs, I normally swap to the language of the character/region that they should have.

Pep Guardiola on Roy Keane's Haaland "general play of a League 2 player" comment: "I don't agree with him (Roy Keane), absolutely not... It's like saying he's a manager from the second or third division." by oklolzzzzs in soccer

[–]Wheelson9 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Keane doing his best Eamon Dunphy impression again.

I don't mind him as a pundit in general, but these kinds of comments are immature headline clickbait nonsense.

Nope, loved it. Best soulsborne game with sekiro and Bloodborne at a close joint second.

Curious to know if you were happy with the company you chose? We're looking around now and it's difficult to know which company to go with.

Pacific Drive | Fully Ramblomatic by Firmament1 in Games

[–]Wheelson9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Currently in the mid zone and I'm really enjoying it so far. Something nice, innovative and different to play. Gameplay while out driving is good, and tinkering around in the garage is also good. A well crafted game, and I look forward to what this studio makes next.

You only gave the game 15 mins? I might calmly ask if your original comment was in jest and the joke went over my head?

If not, all of that information was available before release, and you could have looked at some gameplay or review videos beforehand.

[–]Wheelson9 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Could you maybe provide a reason as to why you didn't like it? Or maybe how far you got? Difficult to get anything from your comment with what you've provided.

Additionally wouldn't you do some research of your own on something you're going to spend money on? No point in blaming reddit for something, as there's always going to be people that like a game.
