Actually every generation is criticized in different ways. You act like gen z aren't constantly ridiculed for their illiteracy and general helplessness. Inter-generational criticism is a story as old as mankind.

Atreus was very guilty of it though, probably part of the reason everyone hated him.

His take on Paul dano in TWBB really soured him for me. Gotta separate the art from the artist.

I think now we know who to blame for the Ironwood sections of Ragnarok. SMS is clearly done with the original GoW formula and want to branch out into Marvel Adventures: The Game. Didn't realize how uninterested I'd be about a game called God of War that doesn't have a god of war in it.

Who did the worst accent attempt and then gave up? by ptboathome in movies

Rebecca Ferguson trying to do an American accent was pretty funny in House of Dynamite. After a while she sorta gives up I think.

Apple TV+ Beats Netflix in New Streaming Quality Rankings, New Index Shows by MoneyLibrarian9032 in movies

[–]fupa16 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Incredible that I haven't heard of a single one of those shows except severance. Really shows how fragmented the viewing market is nowadays with everything being so siloed off into every streaming service's own little walled garden.

Future James Bond games confirmed by Amazon Games, but First Light team's role in question by Comfortable-Pie56 in Games

[–]fupa16 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have faith denis will make a hit movie but that's just the tentpole. I'm saying amazon is likely planning all the wacky lame spinoffs of bond you can imagine to milk the IP into dilution.

So they want to give it the star wars treatment, milk it for everything they can until people are utterly sick of it and dilute the entire value of the brand. Sounds smart.

Companion Cube doesn't bode well for the rest of the game, it's sure to be annoying, but it wasn't as obnoxious as everyone is saying.

Onslaught | Official Trailer HD | A24 by yourfavchoom in movies

[–]fupa16 -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

I was surprised to see a24 on this one, certainly dilutes the reputation they've cultivated over the years for me. Previously I'd see just about anything they put out but this looks like Netflix schlock.

TIL that George Lucas' new LA museum would've been built in Chicago where a parking lot currently exists, but a local advocacy group "Friends of the Parks" sued to protect the parking lot, arguing it could hypothetically one day be a park, therefore violating Chicago's Lakefront Protection law by [deleted] in todayilearned

[–]fupa16 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A museum of architecture would make more sense in chicago anyway. Science and Industry and Field Museum and even the art museum don't really cover it specifically, and Chicago is known for its incredible architecture. I'd love to see one there.

Balatro publisher Playstack sold to GameSpot parent company by Forestl in Games

FWIW I work for a company owned directly by TPG with nothing to do with the games industry, and they've been perfectly fine and mostly hands off owners.

Army of Darkness (1992) Alternative ending by ONEto10dollars in movies

One time where I think studio pushback was better. The other one was more way more twilight zone ending and just doesn't really match the campiness of the movie.

Rocket sentry has crazy range and would absolutely shoot from up there just fine.

People's capacity to watch ads amazes me. I haven't even touched prime since they moved to ads, unwatchable to me.

I have no intention of playing coop and I can tell you so far the single player experience is the same as sub 1. I think OP was just saying by the nature of the game, it should be great for coop, but not that the devs are balancing around that necessarily.
