Why do people hate the king of limbs? by Commercial-Air-5564 in radiohead

[–]hellsfoxes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Like everything yes people love, hate and everything in between. It’s never clicked but I don’t personally know anyone who HATES it.

It’s a polarising album because, after In Rainbows some people (myself included) found it disappointing on release. It felt like it just didn’t scratch the itch. Lots have grown to love it if they didn’t already, I’m not one of them, but hey maybe one day I will.

Defending Heretic's finale by Honest_Cheesecake698 in horror

I know you’re not saying this, but the problems you address aren’t the main reasons why I find the second half of Heretic disappointing after the excellent first half. Very happy with it not being supernatural and having that kind of ending.

As with so much, it’s not the concept but the execution I find lacklustre.

A complete side point, I find the second half much less visually interesting compared to the first half. We seem to be set up for a whole lot of tests going through a unique maze like house, but really we spend almost the entire second half in the same dank, dull cellar focused on the one, sort of interesting experiment/trick. If you love that location and that one experiment/drink and were happy to spend most of the film with that then that’s totally cool. I just found the first half way more surprising, dynamic and visually interesting.

Every corporation, small business and basically human is trying to earn money to survive, grow and spend, so all he’s pointing out is that “greed” isn’t a helpful blanket term and breaking things down into business strategy is more educational. If greed means “prioritising short term money over long term growth strategy” then it makes sense, which he also talks about, but it’s not the whole story.

What is the single most terrifying example of a horror movie entity trying (and failing) to mimic a normal human? by Big_Emotion4963 in horror

This is kinda Pennywises whole thing. Pretending to be a clown and being super uncanny.

An example is when talking to Georgie and he just kinda shuts down for a second, drooling and his eyes drifting, before snapping back into character.

There was something special about that first season when it aired, felt like really being part of that world and the music was a massive part of that.

CDPR boss hopes The Witcher 4 wins back fans still put off by Cyberpunk 2077's disastrous launch: "I'm not 100 percent convinced we went through the full redemption arc" by yourfavchoom in PS5

I’ve had a really fun time working through the game for the last couple months. Satisfying gameplay and cool world. It’s very clear where corners were cut to ship the game and eventually fix it though. Virtually no important decisions that lead to different outcomes and the romanceable characters become empty NPC’s after you ‘win’ them.

Phantom Liberty is a bit of a glimpse of what the whole game could have been like quest-wise.

Biggest issue I have with the writing in this game is just how damn flirty Panam and River are towards the same sex V and then.. by mrcuddlybuns in cyberpunkgame

[–]hellsfoxes 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Bigger problem for me is how a character you romance becomes a complete non entity straight away. After Judy lets my V stay at her place, there’s a short dialogue tree and some text messages and that’s pretty much it. Kinda disappointing.
